Operation
If Auto Poll is off, the flowmeter must have the poll address set to 0 or
the flowmeter will not be found. If a single connected device has an
address other than zero and auto polling is off, the device will not be
found either.
Burst Mode Configuration
The Model 8800C includes a burst mode function that broadcasts the
primary variable or all dynamic variables approximately three to four
times a second. The burst mode is a specialized function used in very
specific applications. The burst mode function enables you to select the
variables to broadcast over the burst mode and to select the burst
mode option.
Burst Mode
The Burst Mode variable enables you to set the Burst Mode to the
needs of your application. Options for the Burst Mode setting include:
Off–Turns off the Burst Mode so that no data are broadcast on the loop.
On–Turns Burst Mode on so that the data selected under Burst Option
are broadcast over the loop.
Additional command options may appear that are reserved and do not
apply to the Model 8800C.
Burst Option
Burst Option enables you to select the variables to broadcast over the
burst transmitter. Choose one of the following options:
PV–Selects the process variable for broadcast over the burst
transmitter.
Percent Range/Current–Selects the process variable as percent of range
and analog output variables for broadcast over the burst transmitter.
Process vars/crnt–Selects the process variables and analog output
variables for broadcast over the burst transmitter.
Local Display
The Local Display function on the Model 8800C allows you to select
which variables are shown on the optional (M5) local display. Choose
from the following variables:
• Flow
• Percent of Range
• Output Current
• Total
