Emerson Micro Motion 1600 - 8.5.3 Configure Frequency Output Direction

Example: Configure Frequency=Flow
You want the Frequency Output to report all flow rates up to 2000 kg/min.
The frequency receiving device is configured for 10 pulses/kg.
Solution:
FrequencyFactor
RateFactor
T
 × N
FrequencyFactor
2000
60
 × 10
FrequencyFactor = 333.33
Set parameters as follows:
• Rate Factor: 2000
• Frequency Factor: 333.33
8.5.3 Configure Frequency Output Direction
Display
Menu → Configuration → Inputs/Outputs → Channel x → I/O Settings → Direction
ProLink III Device Tools → Configuration → I/O → Outputs → Frequency Output → Direction
Field communicator Device Settings → Inputs/Outputs → Frequency Output x → FO x Direction
Frequency Output Direction controls how conditions of forward flow and reverse flow affect the flow rates
reported by the Frequency Output.
Actual flow direction interacts with Sensor Flow Direction Arrow to determine the flow direction that the
transmitter uses in processing. See the following table.

Procedure
Set Frequency Output Direction as desired.
Option
Description
Positive Flow Only • Forward flow: The Frequency Output reports the flow rate according to the
configured scaling method.
• Reverse flow: The Frequency Output is 0 Hz.
Negative Flow
Only
• Forward flow: The Frequency Output is 0 Hz.
• Reverse flow: The Frequency Output reports the absolute value of the flow rate
according to the configured scaling method.
