Tricor TCE-8000 Programming Manual

TCE-8000 Transmitter Programming Guide This guide contains instructions on how to reconfigure the TCE-8000 Coriolis transmitter using its integral keyboard and display. There are two packaging configurations of the TCE-8000 transmitter: field mount (cast aluminum housing) and panel mount (plastic housing). These programming instructions apply to both. The TRICOR TCE-8000 transmitter’s keyboard and display consists of:  an LCD graphic display  two LEDs labeled “OK” and “ERR”  four pushbutton keys labeled “P,” “Reset,” “Display,” and “Info” Normal Operation When the TRICOR flow meter is operating properly, “OK” flashes green. With the factory defaults, the display indicates FLOW RATE on the upper line and BATCH TOTAL on the lower line. When viewing this display, press the “Reset” key to reset the BATCH TOTAL to zero. Press the “Display” key to view the DENSITY on the upper line and TEMPERATURE on the lower line of the display. Press the “Display” key to toggle back to the FLOW RATE and BATCH TOTAL display. You can reconfigure the normal operation displays to show data other than the factory defaults (see DISPLAY programming). Abnormal Operation When the LED labeled “ERR” flashes red, the internal diagnostics of the transmitter is sensing that there may be a measurement error occurring. Press the “Info” key to view the problem and to see additional parameters that are important to the operation of the unit. Note: Press the “Info” key during normal operation to view these additional parameters. The display that appears is similar to the following: These parameters are important when discussing operational problems with a TRICOR service technician and they correspond to the following data:  SA is the amplitude of Sensor A in millivolts  SB is the amplitude of Sensor B in millivolts  DR is the sensor DRive current in milliamps  PT is the resistance indicated by the Platinum Temperature probe in Ohms  FRE is the vibrating tube FREquency in Hz  TOT is the internal TOTalizer value  ZP is the captured Zero Point calibration in microseconds  RS485 is the address of the RS485 communication port SA: 140 FRE: 142.74 SB: 140 TOT: 1007.69 DR: 5.51 ZP: -0.02 PT: 1071.2 RS485: 01

TCE-8000 Transmitter Programming Guide CUTOFF Set the value of a low flow cutoff as a percent of the full scale rating of the flow sensor. STEP RESP. Set the value of the step response as a percent of the full scale flow rating of the sensor. RESET KEY Activate (ON) or deactivate (OFF) the “Reset” for the displayed BATCH TOTAL. FLOW-DIREC Define the flow direction through the sensor as either FORWARD (in the same direction of the arrow on the flow sensor) or REVERSE (in the opposite direction of the arrow on the flow sensor). K-FACTOR Default K-FACTOR (also known as meter factor) is 1.000. Adjusting this value proportionally will alter the meter output flow function by that proportion. FAULT TIME The time in seconds after a fault is detected before it is declared as an error. LANGUAGE Select the language used on the display. METER MODE programming The METER MODE submenu allow selection of MASS METER when the application requires mass units of measure for both flow rate and flow totals or VOLUME METER when the application requires volume units of measure for both flow rate and flow totals. When VOLUME METER is selected the volume is determined by dividing the measured mass by the measured density. CUTOFF programming CUTOFF is a low flow cutoff. Because the meter at zero flow has a live zero, that is, there is some residual amount of noise being measured at zero flow, there will be some small amount of flow noise being displayed when the flow is actually zero. To avoid this problem which can cause confusion, a cutoff must be in place so that any detected flow noise below this cutoff is displayed as zero flow rate and the totalizer is stable and not counting. Ideally, the cutoff should be as low as possible to assure that the least amount of flow is missed when true flow starts up or shuts off. CUTOFF is programmed as a percentage of the maximum flow rate for the meter and can be set to a minimum of 0.1% (or higher if necessary). For example, the TCM28K meter is rated at a maximum flow rate of 28000 kilograms per hour. Therefore, a CUTOFF setting of 0.1% would mean that any flow below 0.001 x 28000 = 28 kilograms per hour would not be registered. The amount of CUTOFF needed for stable zero indication may be installation dependent. Enter the lowest value of CUTOFF to obtain a stable zero flow reading. STEP REPONSE programming STEP RESPONSE works in conjunction with the FLOW FILTER in that, if a rapid change in flow rate above the amount specified in the STEP RESPONSE occurs, the filter is temporarily cancelled and the meter output goes rapidly to the new flow rate value. In a few applications, it is desirable to have a very stable flow rate displayed when flow is constant thereby dictating a longer time constant in the FLOW FILTER (e.g. greater than 4 seconds). However, in this case if STEP RESPONSE is not employed and the actual flow rate makes a rapid step, the meter

TCE-8000 Transmitter Programming Guide outputs will be slow to respond to it. In most cases it is more desirable to keep the FLOW FILTER at a low value (e.g. 1 second or less) and accept a little variation in the flow rate display by deactivating the STEP RESPONSE entirely. The default value for STEP RESPONSE is therefore deactivated. It is recommended that TRICOR customer support be consulted before STEP RESPONSE is activated and employed. RESET KEY programming The “Reset” key on the display can be programmed to either ON or OFF. When programmed to be ON, the displayed BATCH TOTAL can be reset to zero by pressing this key at any time. If it is undesirable to have a local reset then change RESET KEY to OFF. Note that the CONTROL INPUT line can be programmed for a remote BATCH TOTAL reset. FLOW DIRECTION programming The TRICOR meter is bidirectional. That is, the sensor is fully symmetrical and can be installed in the flow line in either orientation independent of the FLOW symbol on the label. The arrow indicates the direction of FORWARD flow in the software configuration. If the sensor is installed in the opposite orientation simply change FLOW DIRECTION to REVERSE in order to show positive numbers in both the FLOW RATE and BATCH TOTAL. Note that flow in the opposite direction will indicate negative values of FLOW RATE and the BATCH TOTAL will decrement rather than increment. If the BATCH TOTAL decrements down to zero and continues on down, it will show negative numbers in the BATCH TOTAL. K-FACTOR programming The meter calibration can be changed in one of two ways. The first is to change the “factory calibration factor” known as METER VARIABLE which is accessed under the SERVICE menu. A more convenient recalibration method is to modify the K-FACTOR (while preserving the factory calibration factor). The default K-FACTOR is 1.00000. Increasing the K-FACTOR will increase the meter output. Conversely, decreasing the K-FACTOR will decrease the meter output. EXAMPLE: A field recalibration is performed using a calibrated weight scale. The meter registers 105.62 pounds and the weight scale registers 105.51 pounds. The meter is high by 0.104%. Recalculate the K- FACTOR as follows: (old K-FACTOR) X (scale ÷ meter) = new K-FACTOR (1.00000) x (105.51 ÷ 105.62) = 0.99896. Change the K-FACTOR to 0.99896 to improve the meter accuracy. FAULT TIME programming Should an error be detected by the meter electronics it may be desirable to delay the declaration of it in order to not disrupt the operation of the meter, especially if the error is short lived such as an air bubble passing through the meter causing a temporary reduction in amplitude of the Coriolis sensors. The default is 2.7000 seconds delay and should suffice for most applications but can be increased or reduced as needed. LANGUAGE programming The default language on the display is ENGLISH but can be changed to others as they become available.

TCE-8000 Transmitter Programming Guide FILTER programming When FILTER is displayed press the “P” key to access either the FLOW FILTER or the DENSITY FILTER by pressing the UP or DOWN key. Enter the “time constant” for the filter selected. The time constant is defined as the time in seconds that is required to reach 63% of the final value after a step change in the actual flow or density. The filter used is a software representation of a classical single pole RC filter used in analog electronics. IN/OUTPUTS programming  When IN/OUTPUTS is displayed press the “P” key to access the IN/OUTPUTS submenu which contains the following I/O terminals: FREQ OUT Scaling of flow pulses on f-out (terminals #5 to 8) CTRL OUT Definition of the function of digital control output (terminals #6 to 8). ANALOG OUT Scaling of analog 1 output (terminals #1 to 2) Scaling of analog 2 output (terminals #3 to 4) CTRL IN Definition of the function of digital control input (terminals #7 to 8). INTERFACE Definition of communications interface used FREQ-OUT programming With FREQ-OUT displayed, press the “P” key to bring up the current function of the f-out output of the transmitter. Press the “Up” or “Down” key to select the desired function from the list below: FREQ-OUT Description FREQUENCY f-out produces a frequency that is proportional to the flow rate. Frequencies up to 10,000 Hz can be produced in the FREQUENCY mode of operation. Note: Because this mode outputs a frequency proportional to flow rate, totalizing these pulses may result in a slight discrepancy from the TOTAL display. TOTAL COUNT f-out produces pulses that are based on the internal totalizer. In the TOTAL COUNT mode, a change in state from low to high, or high to low occurs when the internal totalizer increases by a set amount of mass (or volume). Totalizing these pulses results in an accurate representation of the TOTAL display. The maximum output in this mode is about 15 pulses per second. FREQUENCY programming After selecting FREQUENCY mode of operation, press the “P” key to view and/or set the additional scaling parameter required for the frequency mode of operation. In each of the following screens set the numerical value using the “RIGHT” and “UP” keys, then “P” to advance to the next parameter. FULL SCALE FLOW Flow rate in the FLOW-UNITS selected that correspond to the frequency selected in the next screen, FULL SCALE FREQUENCY. FULL SCALE FREQUENCY Frequency corresponding to the flow rate entered in the previous screen, FULL SCALE FLOW.

TCE-8000 Transmitter Programming Guide Example 1: The application is expected to reach a full scale flow rate of 600 pounds per minute. The display totalizer is set to display BATCH TOTAL to 0.001 pound resolution and it is desired to have the external pulse counter have the same resolution, 1 pulse per 0.001 pound. The FULL SCALE FREQUENCY is entered in Hz which is equivalent to pulses per second but the flow rate is expressed in pounds per minute. Perform the following calculation. 600 pounds / minute ÷ 60 seconds per minute = 10 pounds per second 10 pounds per second ÷ 0.001 pulses / pound = 10000 pulses per pound = 10000 Hz Therefore: FULL SCALE FLOW = 600.00 lbs/min FULL SCALE FREQUENCY = 10000 Hz Example 2: The application is expected to reach a full scale flow rate of 36000 pounds per hour. The display totalizer is set to display BATCH TOTAL to 0.01 pound resolution and it is desired to have the external pulse counter have the same resolution, 1 pulse per 0.01 pound. The FULL SCALE FREQUENCY is entered in Hz which is equivalent to pulses per second but the flow rate is expressed in pounds per hour. Perform the following calculation. 36000 pounds /hour ÷3600 seconds per hour = 10 pounds per second 10 pounds per second ÷ 0.01 pulses / pound = 1000 pulses per pound = 1000 Hz Therefore: FULL SCALE FLOW = 36000.0 lbs/hr FULL SCALE FREQUENCY = 1000 Hz TOTAL COUNT programming After selecting the TOTAL COUNT mode of operation, press the “P” key to view and/or set the SELECT VALUE in total units to the value for each output pulse. To ensure that the TOTAL COUNT output does not exceed the maximum frequency of 15 Hz, the SELECT VALUE must be checked against the maximum flow rate expected or a delay of the pulses out could result. Press the “P” key to return to FREQ-OUT display. Example : The application is expected to reach a full scale flow rate of 600 pounds per minute. The TOTAL COUNT mode of operation is selected to produce a low frequency pulse output. One pulse per 0.1 pound is to be sent to an external PLC device. SELECT VALUE is set to 0.1000 POUNDS. Perform the following calculation to verify that at the maximum flow rate of 600 pounds per minute the pulse output will not exceed 15 Hz. 600 pounds per minute ÷ 60 seconds/minute = 10 pounds per second 10 pounds per second ÷ 0.1 pounds per pulse = 100 pulses per second = 100 Hz

TCE-8000 Transmitter Programming Guide This exceeds the maximum frequency of 15 Hz which is a limitation of the TOTAL COUNT functionality and, therefore, will not work properly. The SELECT VALUE could be increased to 1.0 pounds per pulse in order to reduce the maximum frequency to 10 Hz which does not exceed the 15 Hz limit. CNTL OUT programming When CNTL OUT is displayed press the “P” key to select the function of the Control Output terminal #6 with respect to #8. FAULT Control output goes from low to high when a fault is declared. FREQ OUT DIR If the application requires bi-directional flow through the meter the Control Output can be set to indicate the direction of flow through the meter so that the frequency output can be qualified to be FORWARD FLOW (Control Output low) or REVERSE FLOW (Control Output high). BATCH The Control Output can be used to control a batch control valve. If BATCH is selected the Control Input terminal must previously have been programmed to RESET BATCH as a start switch for the batch control function. Additionally, two more parameters must be programmed: BATCH VALUE Enter the preset amount of the batch to be delivered each start cycle. SELECT OUTPUT LEVEL ACTIVE LOW (a low signal when not flowing) ACTIVE HIGH (a high signal when not flowing) Press the “P” key to return to CNTL OUT display.
