a.Click the Frequency/Digital Outputs tab to configure Frequency/Digital Output 1, 2 and 3 Source and drive Mode. Select the Source for each Frequency/Digital output and select the desired drive Mode. The Mode options are Open Collector which requires an external excitation voltage and
b.Click the Frequency and Digital Output 1 tab to configure the Content, (flow) Direction, Channel B Phase frequency output, Lag forward, Lead Reverse or Lead Forward, Lag Reverse (Phase B lags Phase A while reporting forward flow and lead Phase A while reporting reverse flow or the opposite), Digital Output 1 Channel A Content and Polarity, Channel B Content and Polarity, Maximum Frequency, and Lower and Upper Range Units of Measure.
c.Click the Frequency and Digital Output 2 tab and repeat Step 3b to configure Frequency and Digital Output 2 parameters.
5.Click Setup HART to configure the HART parameters (tag, date, descriptor, message text, Final Assembly number, Poll address and number of response preambles are displayed). After all of the data is entered click Apply to write the parameters to the meter.
