Description

 

 

HART Output Page

The HART Output Page allows you to configure the HART output of the Daniel Ultrasonic meter.

Series 100 Plus Option

This page is only displayed if the HART Output was selected on the Startup Page. If the meter does

Board

not support the HART protocol on its analog output, the HART Output selection on the Startup

See Section 5.6.9

Page will be disabled and this dialog will not be displayed as you go through the Field Setup

 

Wizard.

 

• Process variables - These are the four dynamic HART variables which you can configure for

 

 

the Daniel Ultrasonic meter. The Primary variable is set to match the Content set for Current

 

 

output 2. If you want a different Primary variable, you will need to go back to the Current

 

 

Output Page and select a different selection for its Content control for Current output 2.

 

• Identification - These are the common variables in HART devices used to identify the partic-

 

 

ular device.

 

• Tag - This is the tag name for the HART device which may be used by host systems to

 

 

uniquely identify the meter. The tag may be up to 8

 

 

characters in length.

 

• Date - This is a numeric date value that must be between 0 and 1677215.

 

• Message - This is a string value that can be no more than 32 characters in length.

 

• Descriptor - This is a string value that can be no more than 16 characters in length.

 

• Final assembly number - This is a numeric value that must be between 0 and 1677215.

 

• Polling address - This is the HART address for the meter. By default the meter is 0 but the

 

 

address can range from 0 to 15.

 

• HART units - These controls allow you to configure the units that values will be read in over

 

 

the HART interface.

 

 

Digital Outputs Page

The Digital Outputs Page allows you to configure the digital outputs for Daniel Mark III Ultrasonic

See Section 5.6.10

Gas Flow Meter. This page is only displayed if connected to a Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic

 

Flow Meter and Digital outputs was selected on the Startup Page.

 

•

Content:

 

 

Select the function for which the digital output should be configured. Available options are

 

 

validity and direction.

 

•

Inverted operation:

 

 

This option is useful if the output of the ultrasonic meter is reversed from what a flow

 

 

computer is expecting. Selecting the check box will invert the digital output. This means

 

 

that if the output normally outputs a HIGH for a TRUE condition, selecting this check box

 

 

will change the output to output a LOW for a TRUE condition.
