7.4.2Filling control options

The filling control options are used to define the fill process. Filling control options are listed and defined in Table 7-3.

Table 7-3Filling control options

Control option	Default	Description
Enable Filling	Enabled	If enabled, the filling application is available for use.
Option		If disabled, the filling application is not available for use. However, it is still
		installed on the transmitter.
Count Up	Enabled	Controls how the fill total is calculated and displayed:
		• If enabled, fill totals increase from zero to the target value.
		• If disabled, fill totals decrease from the target value to zero.
		Does not affect fill configuration.
Enable AOC	Enabled	Automatic Overshoot Compensation (AOC) instructs the fill controller to
		compensate for the time required to close the valve, using the calculated AOC
		coefficient. See Section 7.5 for overshoot compensation options.
Enable Purge	Disabled	If enabled, the secondary valve is used for purging. See Section 7.3.1.
Fill Type	One Stage	Specify One Stage Discrete, Two Stage Discrete, or Three Position Analog. See
	Discrete	Section 7.3.
		If Purge is enabled, you may not specify Two Stage Discrete. See Section 7.3.1.
Configure By	% Target	Select % Target or Quantity.
		• If set to % Target, Open Primary, Open Secondary, Close Primary, and Close
		Secondary values are configured as a percentage of the fill target.
		• If set to Quantity, Open Primary and Open Secondary are each configured as
		a quantity at which the valve should open; Close Primary and Close
		Secondary are configured as a quantity that is subtracted from the target.
Fill Target	0.00000 g	Enter the value at which the fill will be complete.
		• If Mass Flow Rate was specified for flow source, enter the value in the current
		measurement unit for mass. This unit is derived from the mass flow
		measurement unit (see Section 4.4.1).
		• If Volume Flow Rate was specified for flow source, enter the value in the
		current measurement unit for volume. This unit is derived from the volume flow
		measurement unit (see Section 4.4.2).
Max Fill Time	0.00000 sec	Enter a value of 0.00000 or any positive number (in seconds). There is no upper
		limit. If the fill does not reach the target before this time has elapsed, the fill is
		aborted and fill timeout error messages are posted.
		If Max Fill Time is set to 0, it is disabled.
Purge Mode	Manual	Select the purge control method:
		• Auto: A purge cycle occurs automatically after every fill, as defined by the
		Purge Delay and Purge Time parameters.
		• Manual: Purge must be started and stopped using the buttons on the Run
		Filler window.
		Purge must be enabled before Purge Mode can be configured.
Purge Delay	2.00000 sec	Used only if Purge Mode is set to Auto.
		Enter the number of seconds that will elapse after a fill is complete before the
		purge will begin. At this point, the purge (secondary) valve will be opened
		automatically.
