Relay Functions
Use the [Relay Setup] menu to assign a function to channel relays. The flow meter supports
two types of relay outputs, Alarm Relay and Pulse Relay. Alarm Relay outputs operate in
"fail-safe" mode. The relay(s) are energized under normal conditions - an alarm condition
causes the relay(s) to de-energize until the alarm clears. The Pulse Relay output supports
Totalizer and batch relay functions, with an output pulse width of approximately 200 ms;
maximum activation rate is 2.5 pulses per sec. If Totalizer pulses exceed this rate, excess
pulses are stored in an overflow register. This allows the relay to "catch up" when flow
decreases enough.
Note
Using the <F1> key (Totalizer clear command) also clears all channel Totalizers plus the
overflow register described in the last paragraph.
Relay 1 and 2 Function Assignments
The flow meter, depending upon the model, provides four alarm relays. Please refer to the
Appendix A (Page 181) for wiring details. Relays respond to any of the alarm conditions or
data functions included on the Relay Option List.
