Varec 8315 Series manual Emulator EMU, Api

8315 L&J Tankway Software Description TankGate Interface

4.9Emulator (EMU)

The Emulator point allows the TankGate to emulate a Whessoe-Varec Model 6820 Tank Scanning Unit (TSU). This point provides access for level, temperature data, and gauge status information from any type of tank gauge interface supported by the TankGate.

4.9.1Parameters

The database parameters used by the EMU point are listed and described below:

Configuration Parameters	Function
Tag	The point description can contain 30 bytes of data and can
	include any printable ASCII character. Descriptions can be used
	as information relevant to any aspect of the point, such as its
	use, location, operating information, etc. The default
	description is set to “EMU.00”.
LevelUnits	Specifies the engineering units for the level data.
	F: feet, m: Millimeters
	M: Meters
	I: Inches
	P: ft-in-16ths
	The LevelUnits need to match the units specified during the
	gauge setup.
TempUnits	Specifies the engineering units for the temperature data.
	TempUnitsSpecifies the engineering units for the temperature
	data.
	F: Fahrenheit
	C: Celsius
	The TempUnits needs to match the units specified during the
	gauge setup.
DensityUnits	Specifies the engineering units for the density data.
	DensityUnitsSpecifies the engineering units for the density data.
	K: kg/m3
	A: API
	L=lbs/cu ft
	The DensityUnits needs to match the units specified during the
	gauge setup.
PntRef1 - 50	Input point reference for the EMU point to monitor. The PntRef
	parameter is set to the Level parameter for the tank gauge point.
	The temperature will be read at the same time as the level. The
	EMU point interfaces tank gauge interface points:
	WV1900 - Whessoe-Varec Model 1900
