## **GENERAL DESCRIPTION**
The FLEX[®] Analog Panel Meters offer many features and performance capabilities to suit a wide range of industrial applications. Available in five different models to handle various analog inputs, including DC Voltage/Current, AC Voltage/Current, Process, Temperature, and Strain Gage Inputs. Refer to pages 4 through 6 for the details on the specific models. The optional plug-in output cards allow the opportunity to configure the meter for present applications, while providing easy upgrades for future needs.
The meters employ a bright 0.56" LED display. The unit is available with a red sunlight readable or a standard green LED. The intensity of display can be adjusted from dark room applications up to sunlight readable, making it ideal for viewing in bright light applications.
The meters provide a MAX and MIN reading memory with programmable capture time. The capture time is used to prevent detection of false max or min readings which may occur during start-up or unusual process events.
The signal totalizer (integrator) can be used to compute a time-input product. This can be used to provide a readout of totalized flow, calculate service intervals of motors or pumps, etc. The totalizer can also accumulate batch weighing operations.
The meters have four setpoint outputs, implemented on Plug-in option cards. The Plug-in cards provide dual FORM-C relays (5A), quad FORM-A (3A), or either quad sinking or quad sourcing open collector logic outputs. The setpoint alarms can be configured to suit a variety of control and alarm requirements.
Communication and Bus Capabilities are also available as option cards. These include RS232, RS485, Modbus, DeviceNet, and Profibus-DP. Readout values and setpoint alarm values can be controlled through the bus. Additionally, the meters have a feature that allows a remote computer to directly control the outputs of the meter. With an RS232 or RS485 card installed, it is possible to configure the meter using a Windows[®] based program. The configuration data can be saved to a file for later recall.
A linear DC output signal is available as an optional Plug-in card. The card provides either 20 mA or 10 V signals. The output can be scaled independent of the input range and can track either the input, totalizer, max or min readings.
Once the meters have been initially configured, the parameter list may be locked out from further modification in its entirety or only the setpoint values can be made accessible.
The meters have been specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. With NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing of noise effects to CE requirements, the meter provides a tough yet reliable application solution.

## **1.0 insTalling THe meTer**
## _**Installation**_
The FLEX meets NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements when properly installed. The unit is intended to be mounted into an enclosed panel. Prepare the panel cutout to the dimensions shown. Remove the panel latch from the unit. Slide the panel gasket over the rear of the unit to the back of the bezel. The unit should be installed fully assembled. Insert the unit into the panel cutout.
While holding the unit in place, push the panel latch over the rear of the unit so that the tabs of the panel latch engage in the slots on the case. The panel latch should be engaged in the farthest forward slot possible. To achieve a proper seal, tighten the latch screws evenly until the unit is snug in the panel (Torque to approximately 7 in-lbs [79N-cm]). Do not over-tighten the screws.
## _**Installation Environment**_
The unit should be installed in a location that does not exceed the maximum operating temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the unit near devices that generate excessive heat should be avoided.

## **2.0 seTTing THe JUmpers**
The meter can have up to four jumpers that must be checked and / or changed prior to applying power. The following Jumper Selection Figures show an enlargement of the jumper area.
To access the jumpers, remove the meter base from the case by firmly squeezing and pulling back on the side rear finger tabs. This should lower the latch below the case slot (which is located just in front of the finger tabs). It is recommended to release the latch on one side, then start the other side latch.
## **Input Range Jumper**
This jumper is used to select the proper input range. The input range selected in programming must match the jumper setting. Select a range that is high enough to accommodate the maximum input to avoid overloads. The selection is different for each meter. See the Jumper Selection Figure for appropriate meter.
## **Excitation Output Jumper**
If your meter has excitation, this jumper is used to select the excitation range for the application. If excitation is not being used, it is not necessary to check or move this jumper.
## **User Input Logic Jumper**
This jumper selects the logic state of all the user inputs. If the user inputs are not used, it is not necessary to check or move this jumper.
## **RFXH:**
## **Signal Jumper**
This jumper is used to select the signal type. For current signals, the jumper is installed. For voltage signals, remove the jumper from the board. (For 2 V inputs, this removed jumper can be used in the “2 V only” location.)
## **Couple Jumper**
This jumper is used for AC / DC couple. If AC couple, then the jumper is removed from the board. If DC couple is used, then the jumper is installed.
## **RFXD Jumper Selection**
## **Input Range Jumper**
One jumper is used for voltage/ohms or current input ranges. Select the proper input range high enough to avoid input signal overload. Only one jumper is allowed in this area. Do not have a jumper in both the voltage and current ranges at the same time. Avoid placing the jumper across two ranges.

## **3.0 insTalling plUg-in Cards**
The plug-in cards are separately purchased optional cards that perform specific functions. These cards plug into the main circuit board of the meter. The plug-in cards have many unique functions when used with the FLEX.
- **CAUTION** : The plug-in card and main circuit board contain static sensitive components. Before handling the cards, discharge static charges from your body by touching a grounded bare metal object. Ideally, handle the cards at a static controlled clean workstation. Also, only handle the cards by the edges. Dirt, oil or other contaminants that may contact the cards can adversely affect circuit operation.

## **4.0 Wiring THe meTer** SP
## **WIRING OVERVIEW**
Electrical connections are made via screw-clamp terminals located on the back of the meter. All conductors should conform to the meter’s voltage and current ratings. All cabling should conform to appropriate standards of good installation, local codes and regulations. It is recommended that power supplied to the meter (DC or AC) be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker.
When wiring the meter, compare the numbers embossed on the back of the meter case against those shown in wiring drawings for proper wire position. Strip the wire, leaving approximately 0.3" (7.5 mm) bare lead exposed (stranded wires should be tinned with solder). Insert the lead under the correct screwclamp terminal and tighten until the wire is secure. (Pull wire to verify tightness.) Each terminal can accept up to one #14 AWG (2.55 mm) wire, two #18 AWG (1.02 mm), or four #20 AWG (0.61 mm).
## **EMC INSTALLATION GUIDELINES**
Although this meter is designed with a high degree of immunity to ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI), proper installation and wiring methods must be followed to ensure compatibility in each application. The type of the electrical noise, its source or the method of coupling into the unit may be different for various installations.Listed below are some EMC guidelines for successful installation in an industrial environment.
1. The meter should be mounted in a metal enclosure, which is properly connected to protective earth.
2. With use of the lower input ranges or signal sources with high source impedance, the use of shielded cable may be necessary. This helps to guard against stray AC pick-up. Attach the shield to the input common of the meter. Line voltage monitoring and 5A CT applications do not usually require shielding.
3. To minimize potential noise problems, power the meter from the same power branch, or at least the same phase voltage as that of the signal source.
4. Never run Signal or Control cables in the same conduit or raceway with AC power lines, conductors feeding motors, solenoids, SCR controls, and heaters, etc. The cables should be run in metal conduit that is properly grounded. This is especially useful in applications where cable runs are long and portable two-way radios are used in close proximity or if the installation is near a commercial radio transmitter.
5. Signal or Control cables within an enclosure should be routed as far away as possible from contactors, control relays, transformers, and other noisy components.
6. In extremely high EMI environments, the use of external EMI suppression devices, such as ferrite suppression cores, is effective. Install them on Signal and Control cables as close to the unit as possible. Loop the cable through the core several times or use multiple cores on each cable for additional protection. Install line filters on the power input cable to the unit to suppress power line interference. Install them near the power entry point of the enclosure. The following EMI suppression devices (or equivalent) are recommended:
- Ferrite Suppression Cores for signal and control cables: Fair-Rite # 0443167251 TDK # ZCAT3035-1330A Steward #28B2029-0A0
- Line Filters for input power cables: Schaffner # FN610-1/07 Schaffner # FN670-1.8/07 Corcom #1VR3
_Note: Reference manufacturer’s instructions when installing a line filter._
7. Long cable runs are more susceptible to EMI pickup than short cable runs. Therefore, keep cable runs as short as possible.
8. Switching of inductive loads produces high EMI. Use of snubbers across inductive loads suppresses EMI. Snubber: VR# PBN2002

* Only accessible with appropriate plug-in card.
## **DISPLAY MODE**
The meter normally operates in the Display Mode. In this mode, the meter displays can be viewed consecutively by pressing the **DSP** key. The annunciators to the left of the display indicate which display is currently shown; Max Value (MAX), Min Value (MIN), or Totalizer Value (TOT). Each of these displays can be locked from view through programming. (See Module 3) The Input Display Value is shown with no annunciator.
## **PROGRAMMING MODE**
Two programming modes are available.
- **Full Programming Mode** permits all parameters to be viewed and modified. Upon entering this mode, the front panel keys change to Programming Mode operations. This mode should not be entered while a process is running, since the meter functions and User Input response may not operate properly while in Full Programming Mode.
- **Quick Programming Mode** permits only certain parameters to be viewed and/ or modified. When entering this mode, the front panel keys change to Programming Mode operations, and all meter functions continue to operate properly. Quick Programming Mode is configured in Module 3. The Display Intensity Level “” parameter is available in the Quick Programming Mode only when the security code is non-zero. For a description, see Module 9—Factory Service Operations. Throughout this document, Programming Mode (without Quick in front) always refers to “Full” Programming Mode.
## **PROGRAMMING TIPS**
The Programming Menu is organized into nine modules (See above). These modules group together parameters that are related in function. It is recommended to begin programming with Module 1 and proceed through each module in sequence. Note that Modules 6 through 8 are only accessible when the appropriate plug-in option card is installed. If lost or confused while programming, press the **DSP** key to exit programming mode and start over. When programming is complete, it is recommended to record the meter settings on the Parameter Value Chart and lock-out parameter programming with a User Input or lock-out code. (See Modules 2 and 3 for lock-out details.)
## **FACTORY SETTINGS**
Factory Settings may be completely restored in Module 9. This is a good starting point if encountering programming problems. Throughout the module description sections which follow, the factory setting for each parameter is shown below the parameter display. In addition, all factory settings are listed on the Parameter Value Chart following the programming section.
## **ALTERNATING SELECTION DISPLAY**
In the module description sections which follow, the dual display with arrows appears for each programming parameter. This is used to illustrate the display alternating between the parameter (top display) and the parameter's Factory Setting (bottom display). In most cases, selections or value ranges for the parameter will be listed on the right.
## _**STEP BY STEP PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS:**_
## **PROGRAMMING MODE ENTRY (PAR KEY)**
The Programming Mode is entered by pressing the **PAR** key. If this mode is not accessible, then meter programming is locked by either a security code or a hardware lock. (See Modules 2 and 3 for programming lock-out details.)
## **MODULE ENTRY (ARROW & PAR KEYS)**
Upon entering the Programming Mode, the display alternates between and the present module (initially ). The arrow keys ( **F1** and **F2** ) are used to select the desired module, which is then entered by pressing the **PAR** key.
## **PARAMETER (MODULE) MENU (PAR KEY)**
Each module has a separate parameter menu. These menus are shown at the start of each module description section which follows. The **PAR** key is pressed to advance to a particular parameter to be changed, without changing the programming of preceding parameters. After completing a module, the display will return to . From this point, programming may continue by selecting and entering additional modules. (See **MODULE ENTRY** above.)
## **PARAMETER SELECTION ENTRY (ARROW & PAR KEYS)**
For each parameter, the display alternates between the parameter and the present selection or value for that parameter. For parameters which have a list of selections, the arrow keys ( **F1** and **F2** ) are used to sequence through the list until the desired selection is displayed. Pressing the **PAR** key stores and activates the displayed selection, and also advances the meter to the next parameter.
## **NUMERICAL VALUE ENTRY (ARROW, RST & PAR KEYS)**
For parameters which require a numerical value entry, the arrow keys can be used to increment or decrement the display to the desired value. When an arrow key is pressed and held, the display automatically scrolls up or scrolls down. The longer the key is held, the faster the display scrolls.
The **RST** key can be used in combination with the arrow keys to enter large numerical values. When the **RST** key is pressed along with an arrow key, the display scrolls by 1000’s. Pressing the **PAR** key stores and activates the displayed value, and also advances the meter to the next parameter.
## **PROGRAMMING MODE EXIT (DSP KEY or PAR KEY at**
## **)**
The Programming Mode is exited by pressing the **DSP** key (from anywhere in the Programming Mode) or the **PAR** key (with displayed). This will commit any stored parameter changes to memory and return the meter to the Display Mode. If a parameter was just changed, the **PAR** key should be pressed to store the change before pressing the **DSP** key. (If power loss occurs before returning to the Display Mode, verify recent parameter changes.)

Rounding starts at the least significant digit of the Input Display. Remaining parameter entries (scaling point values, setpoint values, etc.) are not automatically adjusted to this display rounding selection.

## **Linear - Scaling Points (2)**
For linear processes, only 2 scaling points are necessary. It is recommended that the 2 scaling points be at opposite ends of the input signal being applied. The points do not have to be the signal limits. Display scaling will be linear between and continue past the entered points up to the limits of the Input Signal Jumper position. Each scaling point has a coordinate-pair of Input Value () and an associated desired Display Value ().
## **Nonlinear - Scaling Points (Greater than 2)**
## **RFXT: TEMPERATURE DISPLAY OFFSET*** aa to |
The temperature display can be corrected with an offset value. This can be used to compensate for probe errors, errors due to variances in probe placement or adjusting the readout to a reference thermometer. This value is automatically updated after a Zero Display to show how far the display is offset. A value of zero will remove the affects of offset.
For non-linear processes, up to 16 scaling points may be used to provide a piece-wise linear approximation. (The greater the number of scaling points used, the greater the conformity accuracy.) The Input Display will be linear between scaling points that are sequential in program order. Each scaling point has a coordinate-pair of Input Value () and an associated desired Display Value (). Data from tables or equations, or empirical data could be used to derive the required number of segments and data values for the coordinate pairs.
## **SCALING STYLE**
This parameter does not apply for the RFXT Scaling values for the RFXT must be keyed-in.
## **FILTER SETTING***
to seconds [ oa
The input filter setting is a time constant expressed in tenths of a second. The filter settles to 99% of the final display value within approximately 3 time constants. This is an Adaptive Digital Filter which is designed to steady the Input Display reading. A value of ‘0’ disables filtering.
## key-in data [| apply signal |
If Input Values and corresponding Display Values are known, the Key-in () scaling style can be used. This allows scaling without the presence or changing of the input signal. If Input Values have to be derived from the actual input signal source or simulator, the Apply () scaling style must be used. After using the Apply () scaling style, this parameter will default back to but the scaling values will be shown from the previous applied method.
## **FILTER BAND***
## to display units [ ~~1~~
The digital filter will adapt to variations in the input signal. When the variation exceeds the input filter band value, the digital filter disengages. When the variation becomes less than the band value, the filter engages again. This allows for a stable readout, but permits the display to settle rapidly after a large process change. The value of the band is in display units. A band setting of ‘0’ keeps the digital filter permanently engaged.
For the RFXT, the following parameters only apply to Custom Sensor Scaling.
## to [| ~~|~~
## **INPUT VALUE FOR SCALING POINT 1**
For Key-in (), enter the known first Input Value by using the arrow keys. The Input Range selection sets up the decimal location for the Input Value. With 0.02A Input Range, 4mA would be entered as 4.000. For Apply (), apply the input signal to the meter, adjust the signal source externally until the desired Input Value appears. In either method, press the **PAR** key to enter the value being displayed.
_Note:_ _style - Pressing the_ **RST** _key will advance the display to the next scaling display point without storing the input value._
## **DISPLAY VALUE FOR SCALING POINT 1**

**RFXT: POINT SLOPE**
This parameter sets the slope value for ice point compensation for the Custom TC range () only. The fixed thermocouple ranges are automatically compensated by the meter and do not require this setting. To calculate this slope, use µ V data obtained from thermocouple manufacturers’ tables for two points between 0 ° C and 50 ° C. Place this corresponding µ V and ° C information into the equation:
° ° slope = ( µ V2 - µ V1)/( C2 - C1).
Due to the nonlinear output of thermocouples, the compensation may show a small offset error at room temperatures. This can be compensated by the offset parameter. A value of 0 disables internal compensation when the thermocouple is externally compensated.
***** _Factory Setting can be used without affecting basic start-up._

## **INPUT VALUE FOR SCALING POINT 2**

For Key-in (), enter the known second Input Value by using the arrow keys. For Apply (), adjust the signal source externally until the next desired Input Value appears. (Follow the same procedure if using more than 2 scaling points.)
_**17**_
**DISPLAY VALUE FOR SCALING POINT 2**
to
Enter the second coordinating Display Value by using the arrow keys. This is the same for and scaling styles. (Follow the same procedure if using more than 2 scaling points.)
## **General Notes on Scaling**
1. Input Values for scaling points should be confined to the limits of the Input Range Jumper position.
2. The same Input Value should not correspond to more than one Display Value. (Example: 20 mA can not equal 0 and 10.) This is referred to as read out jumps (vertical scaled segments).
3. The same Display Value can correspond to more than one Input Value. (Example: 0 mA and 20 mA can equal 10.) This is referred to as readout dead zones (horizontal scaled segments).
4. The maximum scaled Display Value spread between range maximum and minimum is limited to 65,535. For example using +20 mA range the maximum +20 mA can be scaled to is 32,767 with 0 mA being 0 and Display Rounding of 1. (Decimal points are ignored.) The other half of 65,535 is for the lower half of the range 0 to -20 mA even if it is not used. With Display Rounding of 2, +20 mA can be scaled for 65,535 (32,767 x 2) but with even Input Display values shown.
5. For input levels beyond the first programmed Input Value, the meter extends the Display Value by calculating the slope from the first two coordinate pairs ( / & / ). If = 4 mA and = 0, then 0 mA would be some negative Display Value. This could be prevented by making = 0 mA / = 0, = 4 mA / = 0, with = 20 mA / = the desired high Display Value. The calculations stop at the limits of the Input Range Jumper position.
6. For input levels beyond the last programmed Input Value, the meter extends the Display Value by calculating the slope from the last two sequential coordinate pairs. If three coordinate pair scaling points were entered, then the Display Value calculation would be between / & / . The calculations stop at the limits of the Input Range Jumper position.

The front panel function keys are also individually programmable to perform specific meter control functions. While in the Display Mode, the primary function is executed the instant the key is pressed. Holding the function key for three seconds executes a secondary function. It is possible to program a secondary function without a primary function.
The Zero (Tare) Display provides a way to zero the Input Display value at various input levels, causing future Display readings to be offset. This function is useful in weighing applications where the container or material on the scale should not be included in the next measurement value. When activated (momentary action), flashes and the Display is set to zero. At the same time, the Display value (that was on the display before the Zero Display) is subtracted from the Display Offset Value and is automatically stored as the new Display Offset Value (). If another Zero (tare) Display is performed, the display will again change to zero and the Display reading will shift accordingly.
In most cases, if more than one user input and/or function key is programmed for the same function, the maintained (level trigger) actions will be performed while at least one of those user inputs or function keys are activated. The momentary (edge trigger) actions will be performed every time any of those user inputs or function keys transition to the active state.
- _**Note** : In the following explanations, not all selections are available for both user inputs and front panel function keys. Alternating displays are shown with each selection.

This function will switch the Input Display between Relative and Absolute. The Relative is a net value that includes the Display Offset Value. The Input Display will normally show the Relative unless switched by this function. Regardless of the display selected, all meter functions continue to operate based on relative values. The Absolute is a gross value (based on Module 1 **DSP** and **INP** entries) without the Display Offset Value. The Absolute display is selected as long as the user input is activated (maintained action) or at the transition of the function key (momentary action). When the user input is released, or the function key is pressed again, the input display switches back to Relative display. (absolute) or (relative) is momentarily displayed at transition to indicate which display is active.

The Maximum display is selected as long as activated (maintained action). When the user input is released, the Input Display returns. The **DSP** key overrides the active user input. The Maximum continues to function independent of being displayed.
When activated (momentary action), the display intensity changes to the next intensity level (of 4). The four levels correspond to Display Intensity Level () settings of 0, 3, 8, and 15. The intensity level, when changed via the User Input/ Function Key, is not retained at power-down, unless Quick Programming or Full Programming mode is entered and exited. The meter will power-up at the last saved intensity level.

Unless a Zero Display was performed or an offset from Module 1 scaling is desired, this parameter can be skipped. The Display Offset Value is the difference from the Absolute (gross) Display value to the Relative (net) Display value for the same input level. The meter will automatically update this Display Offset Value after each Zero Display. The Display Offset Value can be directly keyed-in to intentionally add or remove display offset. See Relative / Absolute Display and Zero Display explanations in Module 2.

The meter can be programmed to automatically compensate for zero drift. Drift may be caused by changes in the transducers or electronics, or accumulation of material on weight systems.
Auto-zero tracking operates when the readout remains within the tracking band for a period of time equal to the tracking delay time. When these conditions are met, the meter re-zeroes the readout. After the re-zero operation, the meter resets and continues to auto-zero track.

This parameter turns the internal ice point compensation on or off. Normally, the ice point compensation is on. If using external compensation, set this parameter to off. In this case, use copper leads from the external compensation point to the meter. If using Custom TC range, the ice point compensation can be adjusted by a value in Module 1 when this is yes.
***** _Factory Setting can be used without affecting basic start-up._
The auto-zero tracking band should be set large enough to track normal zero drift, but small enough to not interfere with small process inputs.
For filling operations, the fill rate must exceed the auto-zero tracking rate. This avoids false tracking at the start of the filling operation.
Fill Rate ≥ tracking band

Auto-zero tracking is disabled by setting the auto-zero tracking parameter = 0.

The totalizer accumulates (integrates) the Input Display value using one of two modes. The first is using a time base. This can be used to compute a timetemperature product. The second is through a user input or function key programmed for Batch (one time add on demand). This can be used to provide a readout of temperature integration, useful in curing and sterilization applications. If the Totalizer is not needed, its display can be locked-out and this module can be skipped during programming.
## **TOTALIZER HIGH ORDER DISPLAY**
When the total exceeds 5 digits, the front panel annunciator **TOT** flashes. In this case, the meter continues to totalize up to a 9 digit value. The high order 4 digits and the low order 5 digits of the total are displayed alternately. The letter “” denotes the high order display. When the total exceeds a 9 digit value, the Totalizer will show “E . . .” and will stop.
## **TOTALIZER BATCHING**
## **TOTALIZER DECIMAL POINT***
##
For most applications, this matches the Input Display Decimal Point (). If a different location is desired, refer to Totalizer Scale Factor.
The Totalizer Time Base and scale factor are overridden when a user input or function key is programmed for store batch (). In this mode, when the user input or function key is activated, the Input Display reading is one time added to the Totalizer (batch). The Totalizer retains a running sum of each batch operation until the Totalizer is reset. This is useful in weighing operations, when the value to be added is not based on time but after a filling event.
## **TOTALIZER USING TIME BASE**
Totalizer accumulates as defined by:
## **TOTALIZER TIME BASE**
- seconds (÷ 1) - hours (÷ 3600) - minutes (÷ 60) - days (÷ 86400)
This is the time base used in Totalizer accumulations. If the Totalizer is being accumulated through a user input programmed for Batch, then this parameter does not apply.
## **TOTALIZER SCALE FACTOR***
##
##
## to
>
For most applications, the Totalizer reflects the same decimal point location and engineering units as the Input Display. In these cases, the Totalizer Scale Factor is 1.000. The Totalizer Scale Factor can be used to scale the Totalizer to a different value than the Input Display. Common possibilities are:
1. Changing decimal point location (example tenths to whole)
2. Average over a controlled time frame.
Details on calculating the scale factor are shown later.
If the Totalizer is being accumulated through a user input programmed for Batch, then this parameter does not apply.
Input Display x Totalizer Scale Factor Totalizer Time Base
Where:
Input Display - the present input reading Totalizer Scale Factor - 0.001 to 65.000 Totalizer Time Base - (the division factor of )
Example: The input reading is at a constant rate of 10.0 gallons per minute. The Totalizer is used to determine how many gallons in tenths has flowed. Because the Input Display and Totalizer are both in tenths of gallons, the Totalizer Scale Factor is 1. With gallons per minute, the Totalizer Time Base is minutes (60). By placing these values in the equation, the Totalizer will accumulate every second as follows:
10.0 x 1.000 = 0.1667 gallon accumulates each second 60
This results in: 10.0 gallons accumulates each minute 600.0 gallons accumulates each hour
## **TOTALIZER SCALE FACTOR CALCULATION EXAMPLES**
1. When changing the Totalizer Decimal Point () location from the Input Display Decimal Point (), the required Totalizer Scale Factor is multiplied by a power of ten.
Example:
## **TOTALIZER LOW CUT VALUE***
## to
A low cut value disables Totalizer when the Input Display value falls below the value programmed.
## **TOTALIZER POWER UP RESET***

The Totalizer can be reset to zero on each meter power-up by setting this parameter to reset.

2. To obtain an average reading within a controlled time frame, the selected Totalizer Time Base is divided by the given time period expressed in the same timing units.
Example: Average temperature per hour in a 4 hour period, the scale factor would be 0.250. To achieve a controlled time frame, connect an external timer to a user input programmed for . The timer will control the start (reset) and the stopping (hold) of the totalizer.

(Previously latched alarms will be off if power up Display Value is lower than setpoint value.) = Latch with delay reset action; This action latches the alarm output on at the trigger point per the Setpoint Action shown in Setpoint Alarm Figures. Latch means that the alarm output can only be turned off by front panel function key or user input manual reset, serial reset command or meter power cycle. When the user input or function key is activated (momentary or maintained), the meter delays the event until the corresponding “on” alarm output crosses the trigger off point. (Previously latched alarms are off if power up Display Value is lower than setpoint value. During a power cycle, the meter erases a previous Latch 2 reset if it is not activated at power up.)
## **HYSTERESIS VALUE**
## [| to [|
Enter desired hysteresis value. See Setpoint Alarm Figures for visual explanation of how setpoint alarm actions (balance and unbalance) are affected by the hysteresis. When the setpoint is a control output, usually balance hysteresis is used. For alarm applications, usually unbalanced hysteresis is used. For unbalanced hysteresis modes, the hysteresis functions on the low side for high acting setpoints and functions on the high side for low acting setpoints.
_Note: Hysteresis eliminates output chatter at the switch point, while time delay can be used to prevent false triggering during process transient events._

Enter the time value in seconds that the alarm is delayed from turning on after the trigger point is reached. A value of 0.0 allows the meter to update the alarm status per the response time listed in the Specifications. When the output logic is , this becomes off time delay. Any time accumulated at power-off resets during power-up.

## _**Alternate Setpoints**_
An Alternate list of setpoint values can be stored and recalled as needed. The Alternate list allows an additional set of setpoint values. (The setpoint numbers nor rear terminal numbers will change in the Alternate list.) The Alternate list can only be activated through a function key or user input programmed for in Module 2. When the Alternate list is selected, the Main list is stored and becomes inactive. When changing between Main and Alternate, the alarm state of Auto Reset Action alarms will always follow their new value. Latched “on” alarms will always stay latched during the transition and can only be reset with a user input or function key. Only during the function key or user input transition does the display indicate which list is being used.

## _**Sending Commands and Data**_
When sending commands to the meter, a string containing at least one command character must be constructed. A command string consists of a command character, a value identifier, numerical data (if writing data to the meter) followed by a the command terminator character * or $.

## **Command String Construction**
The command string must be constructed in a specific sequence. The meter does not respond with an error message to illegal commands. The following procedure details construction of a command string:
1. The first 2 or 3 characters consist of the Node Address Specifier (N) followed by a 1 or 2 character node address number. The node address number of the meter is programmable. If the node address is 0, this command and the node address itself may be omitted. This is the only command that may be used in conjunction with other commands.
2. After the optional address specifier, the next character is the command character.
3. The next character is the register ID. This identifies the register that the command affects. The P command does not require a register ID character. It prints according to the selections made in print options.
4. If constructing a value change command (writing data), the numeric data is sent next.
5. All command strings must be terminated with the string termination characters * or $. The meter does not begin processing the command string until this character is received. See timing diagram figure for differences of * and $ terminating characters.
## _**Receiving Data**_
Data is transmitted by the meter in response to either a transmit command (T), a print block command (P) or User Function print request. The response from the meter is either a full field transmission or an abbreviated transmission. In this case, the response contains only the numeric field. The meter response mode is established in programming.
## **Full Field Transmission**
|**Byte**|**Description**|
|---|---|
|1, 2|2 byte Node Address field [00-99]|
|3|<SP> (Space)|
|4-6|3 byte Register Mnemonic field|
|7-18|12 byte data field; 10 bytes for number, one byte for sign, one byte for<br>decimal point (The T command may be a different byte length)|
|19|<CR> carriage return|
|20|<LF> line feed|
|21|<SP>* (Space)|
|22|<CR>* carriage return|
|23|<LF>* line feed|
_* These characters only appear in the last line of a block print._
The first two characters transmitted are the node address, unless the node address assigned =0, in which case spaces are substituted. A space follows the node address field. The next three characters are the register ID (Serial Mnemonic).
The numeric data is transmitted next. The numeric field is 12 characters long (to accommodate the 10 digit totalizer), with the decimal point position floating within the data field. Negative value have a leading minus sign. The data field is right justified with leading spaces.
## **Command String Examples:**
1. Node address = 17, Write 350 to Setpoint 1, response delay of 2 msec min String: N17VE350$
2. Node address = 5, Read Input value, response delay of 50 msec min String: N5TA*
3. Node address = 0, Reset Setpoint 4 output, response delay of 50 msec min String: RH*
## **Sending Numeric Data**
Numeric data sent to the meter must be limited to 5 digits (-19,999 to 99,999). If more than 5 digits are sent, the meter accepts the last 5. Leading zeros are ignored. Negative numbers must have a minus sign. The meter ignores any decimal point and conforms the number to the scaled resolution. (For example: the meter’s scaled decimal point position = 0.0 and 25 is written to a register. The value of the register is now 2.5 In this case, write a value = 25.0).
_Note: Since the meter does not issue a reply to value change commands, follow with a transmit value command for readback verification._
The end of the response string is terminated with a carriage return <CR> and <LF>. When block print is finished, an extra <SP><CR> <LF> is used to provide separation between the blocks.
## **Abbreviated Transmission**
- **Byte Description** 1-12 12 byte data field, 10 bytes for number, one byte for sign, one byte for decimal point
- 13 <CR> carriage return 14 <LF> line feed 15 <SP>* (Space) 16 <CR>* carriage return 17 <LF>* line feed
- _These characters only appear in the last line of a block print._
The abbreviated response suppresses the node address and register ID, leaving only the numeric part of the response.
## **Meter Response Examples:**
1. Node address = 17, full field response, Input = 875 17 INP 875 <CR><LF>
2. Node address = 0, full field response, Setpoint 2 = -250.5 SP2 -250.5<CR><LF>
3. Node address = 0, abbreviated response, Setpoint 2 = 250, last line of block print
_26_
## **SERIAL COMMANDS FOR FLEX SOFTWARE**
## **(CSR) Control Status Register**
The Control Status Register is used to both directly control the meter’s outputs (setpoints and analog output), and interrogate the state of the setpoint outputs. The register is bit mapped with each bit position within the register assigned to a particular control function. The control function are invoked by writing to each bit position. The bit position definitions are:
bit 0: Setpoint 1 Output Status
0 = output off 1 = output on
bit 1: Setpoint 2 Output Status 0 = output off 1 = output on
bit 2: Setpoint 3 Output Status 0 = output off 1 = output on
bit 3: Setpoint 4 Output Status 0 = output off 1 = output on
bit 4: Manual Mode 0 = automatic mode 1 = manual mode
bit 5: Always stays 0, even if 1 is sent. bit 6: Sensor Status (RFXT only) 0 = sensor normal 1 = sensor fail bit 7: Always stays 0, even if 1 is sent.
Although the register is bit mapped starting with bit 7, HEX < > characters are sent in the command string. Bits 7 and 5 always stay a zero, even if a “1” is sent. This allows ASCII characters to be used with terminals that may not have extended character capabilities.
Writing a “1” to bit 4 of CSR selects manual mode. In this mode, the setpoint outputs are defined by the values written to the bits b0, b1, b2, b3; and the analog output is defined by the value written to the AOR. Internal control of these outputs is then overridden.
In automatic mode, the setpoint outputs can only be reset off. Writing to the setpoint output bits of the CSR has the same effect as a Reset command (R). The contents of the CSR may be read to interrogate the state of the setpoint outputs and to check the status of the temperature sensor (RFXT only).
## **Examples:**
1. Set manual mode, turn all setpoints off:
|||7|6|5|4|3|2|1|0:bit location|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|VJ<30>* or VJ0*|ASCII 0 =|0|0|1|1|0|0|0|0<br>or <30>|
|V is command write, J is CSR and *||is terminator.||||||||
|2. Turn SP1, SP3 outputs on and SP2, SP4 outputs||||||off:||||
|||7|6|5|4|3|2|<br>1|0:bit location|
|VJ<35>* or VJ5*|ASCII 5 =|0|0|1|1|0|1|0|or <35><br>1|
|3. Select Automatic mode:||||||||||
|VJ<40>* or VJ@*|ASCII @ =|0<br>7|1<br>6|0<br>5|0<br>4|0<br>3|0<br>2|0<br>1|or <40><br>0<br>0:bit location|
_Note: Avoid writing values <0A> (LF), <0D> (CR), <24> ($) and <2E> (*) to the CSR. These values are interpreted by the meter as end of command control codes and will prematurely end the write operation._
## **(AOR) Analog Output Register**
The Analog Output Register controls the analog output of the meter. The manual mode must first be engaged by setting bit 4 of the Control Status Register. The range of values of this register is 0 to 4095, which corresponds to 0 mA, 0 V and 20 mA, 10 V; respectively. The table lists correspondence of the output signal with the register value.
|**Register Value**|**Output Signal***|**Output Signal***|_*Due to the absolute accuracy_<br>_rating and resolution of the output_<br>_card, the actual output signal may_<br>_differ 0.15% FS from the table_<br>_values._<br>_The_<br>_output_<br>_signal_<br>_corresponds to the range selected_<br>_(20 mA or 10 V)._|
|---|---|---|---|
||**I (mA)**|**V (V)**||
|0|0.000|0.000||
|1|0.005|0.0025||
|2047|10.000|5.000||
|4094|19.995|9.9975||
|4095|20.000|10.000||
Writing to this register while the meter is in the manual mode causes the output signal to update immediately. While in the automatic mode, this register may be written to, but the output will not update until the meter is placed in manual mode.
## **Examples:**
1. Set output to full scale: VI4095*
2. Set output to zero scale: VI0*
## _**Command Response Time**_
The meter can only receive data or transmit data at any one time (half-duplex operation). The meter ignores commands while transmitting data, but instead uses RXD as a busy signal. When sending commands and data to the meter, a delay must be imposed before sending another command. This allows enough time for the meter to process the command and prepare for the next command.
## NO REPLY FROM METER
**==> picture [243 x 150] intentionally omitted <==**

At the start of the time interval t1, the computer program prints or writes the string to the com port, thus initiating a transmission. During t1, the command characters are under transmission and at the end of this period, the command terminating character (*) is received by the meter. The time duration of t1 is dependent on the number of characters and baud rate of the channel.
## t1 = (10 * # of characters) / baud rate
At the start of time interval t2, the meter starts the interpretation of the command and when complete, performs the command function. This time interval t2 varies from 2 msec to 50 msec. If no response from the meter is expected, the meter is ready to accept another command.
If the meter is to reply with data, the time interval t2 is controlled by the use of the command terminating character. The standard command line terminating character is ‘*’. This terminating character results in a response time window of 50 msec minimum and 100 msec maximum. This allows sufficient time for the release of the sending driver on the RS485 bus. Terminating the command line with ‘$’ results in a response time window (t2) of 2 msec minimum and 50 msec maximum. The faster response time of this terminating character requires that sending drivers release within 2 msec after the terminating character is received.
At the beginning of time interval t3, the meter responds with the first character of the reply. As with t1, the time duration of t3 is dependent on the number of characters and baud rate of the channel. t3 = (10 * # of characters) / baud rate. At the end of t3, the meter is ready to receive the next command.
The maximum serial throughput of the meter is limited to the sum of the times t1, t2 and t3.
_27_
## **Communication Format**
Data is transferred from the meter through a serial communication channel. In serial communications, the voltage is switched between a high and low level at a predetermined rate (baud rate) using ASCII encoding. The receiving device reads the voltage levels at the same intervals and then translates the switched levels back to a character.
The voltage level conventions depend on the interface standard. The table lists the voltage levels for each standard.
|**LOGIC**|**INTERFACE STATE**|**RS232***|**RS485***|
|---|---|---|---|
|1|mark (idle)|TXD,RXD; -3 to -15 V|a-b < -200 mV|
|0|space (active)|TXD,RXD; +3 to +15 V|a-b > +200 mV|
|* Voltage levels at the Receiver||||
Data is transmitted one byte at a time with a variable idle period between characters (0 to ∞ ). Each ASCII character is “framed” with a beginning start bit, an optional error detection parity bit and one or more ending stop bits. The data format and baud rate must match that of other equipment in order for communication to take place. The figures list the data formats employed by the meter.
## **Start bit and Data bits**
Data transmission always begins with the start bit. The start bit signals the receiving device to prepare for reception of data. One bit period later, the least significant bit of the ASCII encoded character is transmitted, followed by the remaining data bits. The receiving device then reads each bit position as they are transmitted. Since the sending and receiving devices operate at the same transmission speed (baud rate), the data is read without timing errors.

## **Parity bit**
After the data bits, the parity bit is sent. The transmitter sets the parity bit to a zero or a one, so that the total number of ones contained in the transmission (including the parity bit) is either even or odd. This bit is used by the receiver to detect errors that may occur to an odd number of bits in the transmission. However, a single parity bit cannot detect errors that may occur to an even number of bits. Given this limitation, the parity bit is often ignored by the receiving device. The FLEX meter ignores the parity bit of incoming data and sets the parity bit to odd, even or none (mark parity) for outgoing data.
## **Stop bit**
The last character transmitted is the stop bit. The stop bit provides a single bit period pause to allow the receiver to prepare to re-synchronize to the start of a new transmission (start bit of next byte). The receiver then continuously looks
for the occurrence of the start bit.
