Set Min.
S
This parameter establishes, as a percentage of full scale flow, the threshold at
which the output alarm will be activated. Flow rates below the threshold will
activate the output alarm.
Set Max.
S
This parameter establishes, as a percentage of full scale flow, the threshold at
which the output alarm will be activated. Flow rates above the threshold will
activate the output alarm.

This parameter provides configuration of the functional operation of the
associated output. The following operations are supported:
Function Dig1 Dig2 Dig3 Dig4
Off X X X
Test X X X
MinMax X X X
Empty X X X
ErAlarm X X X
Forward X
Reverse X
Direct X
ADE X
• Inactive [Off] means digital output is switched off. It is recommended
to switch off the outputs in the menu “Output function” if not used. This
increase the battery life time.
• Test [Test] triggers the output.
• Flow setpoint [MinMax] provides indication when flow rate exceeds
thresholds defined by flow setpoints (set min, set max).
• Empty pipe alarm [Empty] provides indication when pipe is empty.
• Error alarm [ErAlarm] provides indication when meter has error condition.
• Forward pulse [Forward] generates pulses during forward flow conditions.
• Reverse pulse [Reverse] generates pulses during reverse flow conditions.
• Flow direction [Direct] provides indication on current flow direction.
• ADE [ADE] “Absolute Digital Encoder” for remote meter reading using ASCII
communication protocol.

This parameter lets you set the output switch to normally open or normally
closed. If normally open is selected, the output switch is open (no current) when
the output is inactive, and closed (current flows) when the output is active.
If normally closed is selected, the output switch is closed (current flows) when
the output is inactive, and open (no current) when the output is active.
