1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF THE ERA

Functions and features


The flowrate / totalizer model ERA is a microprocessor driven instrument designed to display
flowrate, total and accumulated total.
This product has been designed with a focus on:
 ultra-low power consumption to allow long-life battery powered applications,
 several mounting possibilities with aluminum or GRP enclosures for harsh industrial
surroundings,
 ability to process all types of flowmeter signals,
 transmitting possibilities with analog / pulse outputs.

Flowmeter input
This manual describes the unit with a pulse type input from the flowmeter "-P version".
One flowmeter with a NPN or Reed switch output can be connected to the ERA. To power the
sensor, several options are available.

Standard outputs
 Configurable pulse output: a scaled pulse mirroring a certain totalized quantity. Maximum
frequency 60Hz.; the pulse length can be set from 7,8msec up to 2 seconds.
 Configurable linear (0)4-20mA analog output with 10-bits resolution mirroring the actual flowrate.
Flowrate levels as well as the minimum and maximum signal output can be tuned.

Configuration of the unit
The ERA was designed to be implemented in many types of applications. For that reason, a SETUP-
level is available to configure your ERA according to your specific requirements.
SETUP includes several important features, such as K-factors, measurement units, signal selection
etc. All setting are stored in EEPROM memory and will not be lost in the event of power failure or a
drained battery.
To extend the battery-life time (option), please make use of the power-management functions as
described in chapter 3.2.3.

Display information
The unit has a large transflective LCD with all kinds of symbols and digits to display measuring units,
status information, trend-indication and key-word messages.
Flowrate and totals can be displayed either with the small 8mm digits or with the 17mm digits.
A backup of the total and accumulated total in EEPROM memory is made every minute.

2.3. OPERATOR INFORMATION AND FUNCTIONS

In general, the ERA will always act at Operator level. The information displayed is dependant upon
the SETUP-settings. All pulses generated by the connected flowmeter are measured by the ERA in
the background, whichever screen refresh rate setting is chosen. After pressing a key, the display
will be updated very quickly during a 30 second period, after which it will slow-down again.

RUN

Fig. 3: Example of display information during process.

For the Operator, the following functions are available:

 Display flowrate / total or flowrate


This is the main display information of the ERA. After selecting any other information, it will
always return to this main display automatically.
Total is displayed on the upper-line of the display and flowrate on the bottom line.
It is possible to display flowrate only with the large 17mm digits; in this instance press the
SELECT-key to read the total.
When "-------" is shown, then the flowrate value is too high to be displayed. The arrows 
indicate the increase/decrease of the flowrate trend.

 Clear total
The value for total can be re-initialized. To do so, press CLEAR twice. After pressing CLEAR
once, the flashing text "PUSH CLEAR" is displayed. To avoid re-initialization at this stage,
press another key than CLEAR or wait for 20 seconds.
Re-initialization of total DOES NOT influence the accumulated total.

 Display accumulated total


When the SELECT-key is pressed, total and accumulated total are displayed. The
accumulated total cannot be re-initialized. The value will count up to 99,999,999,999. The unit
and number of decimals are displayed according to the configuration settings for total.

 Low-battery alarm
When the battery voltage drops, it must be replaced. At first "low-battery" will flash, but as
soon as it is displayed continuously, the battery MUST be replaced shortly after!
Only original batteries supplied by the manufacturer may be used, else the guarantee and
liability will be terminated. The remaining lifetime after the first moment of indication is
generally several days up to some weeks.

3. CONFIGURATION
3.1. INTRODUCTION

This and the following chapters are exclusively meant for electricians and non-operators. In these,
an extensive description of all software settings and hardware connections are provided.

 Mounting, electrical installation, start-up and maintenance of the instrument may only be
carried out by trained personnel authorized by the operator of the facility. Personnel must read
and understand this Operating Manual before carrying out its instructions.
 The ERA may only be operated by personnel who are authorized and trained by the operator
of the facility. All instructions in this manual are to be observed.
 Ensure that the measuring system is correctly wired up according to the wiring diagrams. The
housing may only be opened by trained personnel.
 Take careful notice of the " Safety rules, instructions and precautionary measures " in the front
of this manual.

3.2. PROGRAMMING SETUP-LEVEL

3.2.1. GENERAL

Configuration of the ERA is done at SETUP-level. SETUP-level is reached by pressing the


PROG/ENTER key for 7 seconds; at which time, both arrows  will be displayed. In order to return
to the operator level, PROG will have to be pressed for three seconds. Alternatively, if no keys are
pressed for 2 minutes, the unit will exit SETUP automatically.
SETUP can be reached at all times while the ERA remains fully operational.

Note: A password may be required to enter SETUP. Without this password access to SETUP is
denied.

To enter SETUP-level:

Matrix structure SETUP-level:

SCROLLING THROUGH SETUP-LEVEL

Selection of function-group and function:


SETUP is divided into several function groups and functions.

Each function has a unique number, which is displayed below the word "SETUP" at the bottom of
the display. The number is a combination of two figures. The first figure indicates the function-group
and the second figure the sub-function. Additionally, each function is expressed with a keyword.

After selecting a sub-function, the next main function is selected by scrolling through all "active" sub-
functions (e.g. 1, 11, 12, 13, 14, 1, 2, 3, 31 etc.).

MS476_0615_0014
Page 11
To change or select a value:

To change a value, use  to select the digits and  to increase that value.
To select a setting, both  and  can be used.
If the new value is invalid, the increase sign or decrease-sign will be displayed while you are
programming.

When data is altered but ENTER is not pressed, then the alteration can still be cancelled by waiting
for 20 seconds or by pressing ENTER for three seconds: the PROG-procedure will be left
automatically and the former value reinstated.

Note: alterations will only be set after ENTER has been pressed!

To return to OPERATOR-level:

In order to return to the operator level, PROG will have to be pressed for three seconds. Also, when
no keys are pressed for 2 minutes, SETUP will be left automatically.

3.2.3. EXPLANATION OF SETUP-FUNCTIONS

1 - TOTAL
UNIT SETUP - 11 determines the measurement unit for total, accumulated total
11 and pulse output. The following units can be selected:

L - m3 - kg - lb. - GAL - USGAL - bbl - _ (no unit).

Alteration of the measurement unit will have consequences for operator


and SETUP-level values.
Please note that the K-factor has to be adapted as well; the calculation is
not done automatically.
DECIMALS The decimal point determines for total, accumulated total and pulse output
12 the number of digits following the decimal point.
The following can be selected:

0000000 - 111111.1 - 22222.22 - 3333.333

K-FACTOR With the K-factor, the flowmeter pulse signals are converted to a quantity.
13 The K-factor is based on the number of pulses generated by the
flowmeter per selected measurement unit (SETUP 11), for example per
cubic meter. The more accurate the K-factor, the more accurate the
functioning of the system will be.

Example 1: Calculating the K-factor.


Let us assume that the flowmeter generates 2.4813 pulses per
liter and the selected unit is "cubic meters / m3". A cubic meter
consists of 1000 parts of one liter which implies 2,481.3 pulses
per m3. So, the K-factor is 2,481.3. Enter for SETUP - 13:
"2481300" and for SETUP - 14 - decimals K-factor "3".

Example 2: Calculating the K-factor.


Let us assume that the flowmeter generates 6.5231 pulses per
gallon and the selected measurement unit is gallons. So, the K-
Factor is 6.5231. Enter for SETUP - 13: "6523100" and for
SETUP - 14 decimals K-factor "6".

DECIMALS K-FACTOR This setting determines the number of decimals for the K-factor entered.
14 (SETUP 13). The following can be selected:

0-1-2-3-4-5-6

Please note that this setting influences the accuracy of the K-factor
indirectly. (i.e. the position of the decimal point and thus the value given)
This setting has NO influence on the displayed number of digits for total
(SETUP 12)!

MS476_0615_0014
Page 14

2 - FLOWRATE
The settings for total and flowrate are entirely separate. In this way, different units of measurement
can be used for each e.g. cubic meters for total and liters for flowrate.
The display update time for flowrate is one second or more.
Note: these settings also influence the analog output.
UNIT SETUP - 21 determines the measurement unit for flowrate.
21 The following units can be selected:

mL - L - m3 - mg - g - kg - ton - GAL - bbl - lb - cf - REV -


no unit - scf - Nm3 - NL - P.

Alteration of the measurement unit will have consequences for operator


and SETUP-level values.
Please note that the K-factor has to be adapted as well; the calculation is
not done automatically.
TIME UNIT The flowrate can be calculated per second (SEC), minute (MIN), hour
22 (HR) or day (DAY).
DECIMALS This setting determines for flowrate the number of digits following the
23 decimal point. The following can be selected:

00000 - 1111.1 - 2222.22 - 3333.333

K-FACTOR With the K-factor, the flowmeter pulse signals are converted to a flowrate.
24 The K-factor is based on the number of pulses generated by the
flowmeter per selected measurement unit (SETUP 21), for example per
liter. The more accurate the K-factor, the more accurate the functioning of
the system will be. For examples read SETUP 13.
DECIMALS K-FACTOR This setting determines the number of decimals for the K-factor
25 (SETUP 24). The following can be selected:

0-1-2-3-4-5-6

Please note that this SETUP - influences the accuracy of the K-factor
indirectly.
This setting has NO influence on the displayed number of digits for
"flowrate" (SETUP 23)!
CALCULAT The flowrate is calculated by measuring the time between a number of
26 pulses, for example 10 pulses. The more pulses the more accurate the
flowrate will be. The maximum value is 255 pulses.
Note: this setting does influence the update time for the analog output
directly (maximum update 10 times a second). If the output response is
too slow, decrease the number of pulses.
Note: the lower the number of pulses, the higher the power consumption
of the unit will be (important for battery powered applications).
Note: for low frequency applications (below 10Hz): do not program more
than 10 pulses else the update time will be very slow.
Note: for high frequency application (above 1kHz) do program a value of
50 or more pulses.
CUT-OFF TIME With this setting, you determine a minimum flow requirement thresh-hold,
27 if during this time less than XXX-pulses (SETUP 26) are generated, the
flowrate will be displayed as zero.
The cut-off time has to be entered in seconds - maximum time is 999
seconds (about 15 minutes).

MS476_0615_0014
Page 15

3 - DISPLAY
FUNCTION The large 17mm digits can be set to display total or flowrate.
31 When "total" is selected, both total and flowrate are displayed
simultaneously.
When "flowrate" is selected, only flowrate will be displayed with it’s
measuring unit while total will be displayed after pressing SELECT.
LIGHT (BACKLIGHT The density of the backlight can be set in following range:
BRIGHTNESS)
32 0% (OFF) – 20% - 40% - 60% - 80% - 100% (FULL BRIGHTNESS)

4 – POWER MANAGEMENT
LCD NEW The calculation of the display-information influences the power
41 consumption significantly. When the application does not require a fast
display update, it is strongly advised to select a slow refresh rate.
Please understand that NO information will be lost; every pulse will be
counted and the output signals will be generated in the normal way.
The following can be selected:

Fast - 1 sec - 3 sec - 15 sec - 30 sec - off.

Example 3: Battery life-time


battery life-time with a coil pick-up, 1KHz. pulses and FAST
update: about 2 years.
battery life-time with a coil pick-up, 1KHz. pulses and 1 sec
update: about 5 years.

Note: after a button has been pressed by the operator - the display
refresh rate will always switch to FAST for 30 seconds. When "OFF" is
selected, the display will be switched off after 30 seconds and will be
switched on as soon as a button has been pressed.
BATTERY-MODE The unit has two modes: operational or shelf.
42 After "shelf" has been selected, the unit can be stored for several years; it
will not count pulses, the display is switched off but all settings and totals
are stored. In this mode, power consumption is extremely low.
To wake up the unit again, press the SELECT-key twice.

5 - FLOWMETER

6 - ANALOG OUTPUT
A linear analog (0)4-20mA or 0-10V signal is generated according to the flowrate with a 10 bits
resolution. The settings for flowrate (SETUP - 2) influence the analog output directly.
The relationship between rate and analog output is set with the following functions:
DISABLE / ENABLE The analog output can be disabled.
61 3.5mA will be generated if a power supply is available but the output is
disabled.

MINIMUM FLOWRATE Enter here the flowrate at which the output should generate the minimum
62 signal (0/4mA or 0V) - in most applications at flowrate "zero".
The number of decimals displayed depend upon SETUP 23.
The time and measuring units (L/min for example) are dependant upon
SETUP 21 and 22 but are not displayed.
MAXIMUM FLOWRATE Enter here the flowrate at which the output should generate the maximum
63 signal (20mA or 10V) - in most applications at maximum flow.
The number of decimals displayed depend upon SETUP 23.
The time and measuring units (L/min for example) are dependant upon
SETUP 21 and 22 but can not be displayed.
CUT-OFF To ignore leakage of the flow for example, a low flow cut-off can be set as
64 a percentage of the full range of 16mA, (or 20mA or 10V).
When the flow is less than the required rate, the current will be the
minimum signal (0/4mA or 10V).
Examples:
4MA 20MA CUT-OFF REQUIRED RATE OUTPUT
(SETUP 62) (SETUP 63) (SETUP 64)
0 L/min 100 L/min 2% (100-0)*2% = 2.0 L/min 4+(16*2%) = 4.32mA
20 L/min 800 L/min 3.5% (800-20)*3.5%= 27.3 L/min 4+(16*3.5%)=4.56mA
TUNE MIN / 4MA The initial minimum analog output value is 0/4mA or 0V. However, this
65 value might differ slightly due to external influences such as temperature
for example. The 0/4mA value can be tuned precisely with this setting.

 Before tuning the signal, be sure that the analog signal is not being
used for any application!

After pressing PROG, the current will be about 4mA (or 0mA / 0V). The
current can be increased / decreased with the arrow-keys and is directly
active. Press ENTER to store the new value.
Remark: the analog output value can be programmed “up-side-down” if
desired, so 20mA at minimum flowrate for example!
TUNE MAX / 20MA The initial maximum analog output value is 20mA (or 10V). However, this
66 value might differ slightly due to external influences such as temperature
for example. The 20mA value can be tuned precisely with this setting.

 Before tuning the signal, be sure that the analog signal is not being
used for any application!
After pressing PROG, the current will be about 20mA. The current can be
increased / decreased with the arrow-keys and is directly active. Press
ENTER to store the new value.
Remark: the analog output value can be programmed “up-side-down” if

6 - ANALOG OUTPUT (CONTINUED)


FILTER This function is used to stabilize the analog output signal.
67 The output value is updated every 0.1 second. With the help of this digital
filter a more stable but less precise reading can be obtained.
The filter principal is based on three input values: the filter level (01-99),
the last analog output value and the last average value. The higher the
filter level, the longer the response time on a value change will be.
Below, several filter levels with their response times are indicated:
FILTER VALUE RESPONSE TIME ON STEP CHANGE OF ANALOG VALUE.
TIME IN SECONDS
50% INFLUENCE 75% INFLUENCE 90% INFLUENCE 99% INFLUENCE
01 filter disabled filter disabled filter disabled filter disabled
02 0.1 second 0.2 second 0.4 second 0.7 second
03 0.2 second 0.4 second 0.6 second 1.2 seconds

50 3.5 seconds 7 seconds 11 seconds 23 seconds
75 5.2 seconds 10 seconds 17 seconds 34 seconds
99 6.9 seconds 14 seconds 23 seconds 45 seconds

7 - IMPULSE
One transistor or mechanic relay output is available as scaled pulse output according to the
accumulated total.
PULSE WIDTH The pulse width determines the time that the transistor or relay will be
PULSE OUTPUT switched; in other words the pulse length. The minimum time between the
71 pulses is as long as the selected period time.
One period is approx. 7.8 msec. If the value selected is “zero”, the pulse
output is disabled. The maximum value is 255 periods.
Note: If the frequency should go out of range - when the flowrate
increases for example - an internal buffer will be used to "store the missed
pulses": As soon as the flowrate reduces again, the buffer will be
"emptied".
It might be that pulses will be missed due to a buffer-overflow, so it is
advised to program this setting within it's range.
If a mechanic relay is used for the pulse output, it is recommended to
reduce the max. output frequency to 0.5Hz, else the life time will be
reduced significantly.
NUMBER OF PERIODS PERIOD TIME MAX. FREQUENCY
0 disabled disabled
1 0,0078 seconds 64 Hz.
2 0,0156 seconds 32 Hz.
3 0,0234 seconds 21 Hz.
64 0,5000 seconds 1 Hz.
255 1,9922 seconds 0.25 Hz.

DECIMALS This setting determines the decimal position for setting 73.
72
Note: the measuring unit is according to setting 11 (for total)

AMOUNT According to the measurement unit settings for total, a pulse will be
73 generated every X-quantity. Enter this quantity here while taking the
displayed decimal position and measuring unit into account.

4.4. INSTALLING THE HARDWARE

4.4.1. INTRODUCTION

 Electro static discharge does inflict irreparable damage to electronics! Before installing or
opening the unit, the installer has to discharge himself by touching a well-grounded object.

 This unit must be installed in accordance with the EMC guidelines (Electro Magnetic
Compatibility).

Aluminum enclosures
 When installed in an aluminum enclosure and a potentially explosive atmosphere requiring
apparatus of equipment protection level Ga and Da, the unit must be installed such that, even
in the event of rare incidents, an ignition source due to impact or friction sparks between the
enclosure and iron/steel is excluded.

 Do ground the aluminum enclosure properly as indicated.

Fig. 8: Grounding aluminum enclosure

FOR INSTALLATION, PAY EMPHATIC ATTENTION TO:

 Separate cable glands with effective IP67 (NEMA4X) seals for all wires.
 Unused cable entries: ensure that you fit IP67 (NEMA4X) plugs to maintain rating.
 A reliable ground connection for both the sensor, and if applicable, for the metal casing.
 An effective screened cable for the input signal, and grounding of its screen to terminal 9 (GND)
or at the sensor itself, whichever is appropriate to the application.

4.4.2. VOLTAGE SELECTION SENSOR SUPPLY

Type PB / PX (AP) - battery powered and output loop-powered applications:


Terminal 11 provides a limited supply voltage of 3.2 V DC (coil signals 1.2V) for the signal output of
the flowmeter.
Note: This voltage MAY NOT be used to power the flowmeters electronics, converters etc, as it will
not provide adequate sustained power ! All energy used by the flowmeters pick-up will directly
influence the battery life-time. It is strongly advised to use a "zero power" pickup such as a coil or
reed-switch when operating without external power. It is possible to use some low power NPN or
PNP output signals, but the battery life time will be significantly reduced (consult your distributor).

Type PD: Sensor supply: 1.2 / 3.2V / 8.2V / 12V or 24 V DC:


With this option, a real power supply for the sensor is available. The flowmeter can be powered with
8.2 / 12 or 24 V DC. Total power consumption PD: max. 50mA@24V.
The voltage is selected with the three switches inside the enclosure.

 Warning: be sure that all the leads to the terminals are disconnected from the unit when the
internal plastic protection cover has been removed !
First, remove the terminal strip(s) after which the internal plastic cover can be removed. The
switches are located in the top left corner (type PD) as indicated:

Fig. 9: Switch setting sensor supply voltage.

SENSOR A SENSOR B VOLTAGE SELECTION


SWITCH 1 VOLTAGE SWITCH 2 VOLTAGE SWITCH 3 SWITCH 4 VOLTAGE
internal 3.2 V DC on on 8.2 V DC
external switch 3+4 on off 12 V DC
off off 23 V DC

Function switch 1: voltage selection sensor A - terminal 11.


Function switch 2: not available for this model.
Function switch 3+4: the combination of these switches determine the voltage as indicated.
Do move switch 1 and / or switch 2 to the OFF position to enable the
selected voltage with switch 3+4.

Note: for power supply type PX: please read Terminal 07-08 !

Terminal 05-06; scaled pulse output R1:


Setup 7 (par. 3.4.4.) determines the pulse output function. The maximum pulse frequency of this
output is 60Hz. If a relay output option has been supplied, be sure that the output frequency does
not exceed 5Hz or else the life-time of the relay will be reduced significantly.

Type OT:
A passive transistor output is available with this option. Max. driving capacity 300mA@50V DC.

MS476_0615_0014
Page 25
Terminal 07-08; basic POWER SUPPLY - type PX - output loop powered:
Connect an external power supply of 8-30VDC to these terminals or a 4-20mA loop.
Do connect the "-" to terminal 7 and the "+" to terminal 8. When power is applied to these terminals,
the (optional) internal battery will be disabled / enabled automatically to extend the battery life time.

Only valid for standard passive output type AP!

Terminal 07-08 analog output (SETUP 7) :


An analog output signal proportional to the flowrate is available as standard.

Type AP:
A passive 4-20mA signal proportional to the flowrate is available with this option. When a power
supply is connected but the output is disabled, a 3.5mA signal will be generated.
Max. driving capacity 1000 Ohm. This output does loop power the unit as well (type PX).

sig com
PLC
GND

Terminal 09-11; Flowmeter input :


Two basic types of digital flowmeter signals can be connected to the unit: Reed or NPN. The screen
of the signal wire must be connected to the common ground terminal 09 (unless earthed at the
sensor itself).
The maximum input frequency is approximately 10 kHz (depending on the type of signal). The input
signal type has to be selected with the correct SETUP-function (read par. 3.2.3.)

MS476_0615_0014
Page 26
Pulse-signal NPN / NPN-LP:
The ERA is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a NPN output signal. For reliable pulse
detection, the pulse amplitude has to go below 1.2V. Signal setting NPN-LP employs a low-pass
signal noise filter, which limits the maximum input frequency - read par. 3.2.3.

Reed-switch:
The ERA is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a reed-switch. To avoid pulse bounce from
the reed-switch, it is advised to select REED LP - low-pass filter (read par. 3.2.3.)

5. MAINTENANCE
5.1. GENERAL DIRECTIONS

 Mounting, electrical installation, start-up and maintenance of the instrument may only be
carried out by trained personnel authorized by the operator of the facility. Personnel must read
and understand this Operating Manual before carrying out its instructions.
 The ERA may only be operated by personnel who are authorized and trained by the operator
of the facility. All instructions in this manual are to be observed.
 Ensure that the measuring system is correctly wired up according to the wiring diagrams.
Protection against accidental contact is no longer assured when the housing cover is removed
or the panel cabinet has been opened (danger from electrical shock). The housing may only
be opened by trained personnel.
 Take careful notice of the " Safety rules, instructions and precautionary measures " in the front
of this manual.

The ERA does not require special maintenance unless it is used in low-temperature applications or
surroundings with high humidity (above 90% annual mean). It is the users responsibility to take all
precautions to dehumidify the internal atmosphere of the ERA in such a way that no condensation
will occur, for example by placing dry silica-gel sachet in the casing just before closing it.
Furthermore, it is required to replace or dry the silica gel periodically as advised by the silica gel
supplier.

Battery life-time:
It is influenced by several issues:

 Type of sensor:
 Input frequency: the higher the frequency, the shorter the battery life-time.
 Flowrate calculation: the lower number of pulses (SETUP 26) the shorter the battery life-time.
 Analog output signal; be sure that an external power supply is connected or that the function is
disabled if not in use; or else it will have a influence on the battery life-time (SETUP 61).
 Display update: fast display update uses significantly more power; SETUP 41.
 Pulse output and communications .
 Low temperatures; the available power will be less due to battery chemistry.

Note: It is strongly advised to disable unused functions.

Check periodically:
 The condition of the casing, cable glands and front panel.
 The input/output wiring for reliability and aging symptoms.
 The process accuracy. As a result of wear and tear, re-calibration of the flowmeter might be
necessary. Do not forget to re-enter any subsequent K-factor alterations.
 The indication for low-battery.
 Clean the casing with soapy-water. Do not use any aggressive solvents as these might damage
the coating.

6.2. REPAIR

This product cannot be repaired by the user and must be replaced with an equivalent certified
product. Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer or his authorized agent.

APPENDIX B: PROBLEM SOLVING


In this appendix, several problems are included that can occur when the ERA is going to be installed
or while it is in operation.

Flowmeter does not generate pulses:


Check:
 Signal selection SETUP - 41,
 Pulse amplitude (par. 4.4.3.),
 Flowmeter, wiring and connection of terminal connectors (par. 4.4.3.),
 Power supply of flowmeter (par. 4.4.2.).

Flowmeter generates "too many pulses":


Check:
 Settings for total and Flowrate: SETUP 11-14 and 21-27,
 Type of signal selected with actual signal generated - SETUP - 41,
 Sensitivity of coil input - SETUP - 41 and par. 4.4.3.
 Proper grounding of the ERA - par. 4.4.1.
 Use screened wire for flowmeter signals and connect screen to terminal 9. (unless connected at
sensor)

Analog output does not function properly:


Check:
 SETUP 51 - is the function enabled?
 SETUP 52 / 53: are the flow-levels programmed correctly?
 connection of the external power-supply according to the specification.

Pulse output does not function:


Check:
 SETUP 63 - pulse per “x” quantity; is the value programmed reasonable and will the maximum
output be under 20Hz?
 SETUP 61 - impulse width; is the external device able to recognize the selected pulse width and
frequency?

Flowrate displays "0 / zero" while there is flow (total is counting):


Check:
 SETUP 22 / 25: are the K-factor and time unit correct?
 SETUP 26 / 27: The unit has to count the number of pulses according to SETUP 26 within the
time according to SETUP 27. Make sure that 27 is set to 10.0 seconds for example : the result is
that the unit has at least 10 seconds time to measure the number of pulses according to SETUP
26.

The password is unknown:


If the password is not 1234, there is only one possibility left: call your supplier.

ALARM
When the alarm flag starts to blink an internal alarm condition has occurred. Press the "select
button" several times to display the 5-digit error code. The codes are:

0001: irrecoverable display-data error: data on the display might be corrupted.


0002: irrecoverable data-storage error: the programming cycle might have gone wrong: check
programmed values.
0003: error 1 and error 2 occurred simultaneously

If the alarm occurs more often or stays active for a longer time, please contact your supplier.
