QUICKSTART OPERATING OVERVIEW
Items Required for Basic Installation and Conguration
• TFXL meter
• Transducers (remote-mount versions sold separately)
• Mounting straps (for remote-mount versions)
• Acoustic couplant
• Power source
• UltraLink Software
• Configuration cable kit P/N D010-0204-001
• USB-to-DB9 converter P/N D005-2116-004 (required if PC does not have a serial port)
• Phillips screwdriver
• Flathead screwdrivers (large and small)
• 5/16 in. nut driver (optional, for remote-mount versions)
Follow these instructions to get the system up and running quickly. Refer to the detailed instructions if you require
additional information.
OTE:N The following steps require information supplied by the transmitter itself so it will be necessary to supply power
to the transmitter, at least temporarily, and connect to a computer using the UltraLink® software utility to obtain
setup information.
Transducer Location
1. Select a mounting location on the piping system with a minimum of ten pipe diameters (10 × the pipe inside diameter) of
straight pipe upstream and ve straight diameters downstream. See Table 1 on page 16 for additional congurations.
2. If the application requires DTTR, DTTN or DTTH transducers, select a mounting method for the transducers based on pipe
size and liquid characteristics. See Table 2 on page 17. The three transducer mounting congurations are shown in
Figure 4. See “Transducer Mounting Configurations” on page 20 for mounting procedures.
OTE:N All DTTS and DTTC transducers use V–Mount configuration.
Power Connections
Power for the TFXL meter flow meter is obtained from a direct current (DC) power source.
1. Verify that the power source is capable of supplying 12…28V DC at a minimum of 250 milliamps.
2. With the power from the DC power source disabled or disconnected, connect the positive supply wire and ground to the
appropriate eld wiring terminals in the ow meter. See Figure 1. A wiring diagram decal is on the inside cover of the ow
meter enclosure.

Transducer Connections for Remote Mount Transducers
1. Guide the transducer terminations through the transmitter conduit hole on the bottom-left of the enclosure using a
sealed cord grip or NEMA 4 conduit connection. Secure the transducer cable with the supplied conduit nut (if exible
conduit was ordered with the transducer).
