The Configuration menu has six tabs used to control how the transmitter is set up and responds to varying

flow conditions. The first screen that appears after clicking the Configuration button is the Basic tab.

Use the General options to select the measurement system—English (inches) or Metric (millimeters)—for transmitter setup,

and choose from a number of pre-programmed small pipe configurations in the Standard Configurations drop-down menu. If

the general entries are altered from those at transmitter startup, click Download and cycle power to the transmitter.

When using the Standard Configurations drop-down menu alternate, menu choices can be made by using the

following guidelines:

1. Select the transducer type and pipe size for the transducer to be used. The rmware will automatically enter the

appropriate values for that pipe size and type. Every entry parameter except for Units, Modbus Address, Standard

Congurations, Frequency, Flow Direction and Specic Heat Capacity will be unavailable behind a grayed out entry box.

2. Go back to the Standard Congurations drop-down menu and select Custom. As soon as Custom is chosen, the previously

grayed out selections will become available for editing.

3. Make any changes to the basic conguration deemed necessary and click Download.

4. To ensure that the conguration changes take eect, turn the power o and then back on again to the transmitter.

Also under the General heading is a field for entering a Modbus address. If the transmitter is to be used on a multi-drop RS485

network, it must be assigned a unique numerical address. This box allows that unique address to be chosen.

OTE:N This address does not set the Modbus TCP/IP, EtherNet/IP, BACnet address. That is set via the web page interface that

is integrated into the Ethernet port.

OTE:N Do not confuse the Modbus address with the device address as seen in the upper left-hand corner of the display. The

Device Addr is included for purposes of backward compatibility of first generation transmitter products. The device

address has no function and will not change when used with this transmitter family.
