5.1.3 Set up the API Referral application using a field communicator
Enable the API Referral application using a field communicator
Prerequisites
The API Referral application must be licensed and enabled on your transmitter. If the API Referral application
was enabled at the factory, you do not need to enable it now.
Volume Flow Type must be set to Liquid.
Procedure
1. Choose Device Settings → Device Information → Licenses → Enable/Disable Applications → Volume
Flow Type and ensure that Volume Flow Type is set to Liquid.
This parameter is available only if API Referral or concentration measurement is not enabled. If you do
not see this parameter, it is already set correctly.
2. If the concentration measurement application is enabled, disable it.
The concentration measurement application and the API Referral application cannot be enabled
simultaneously.
3. Enable the API Referral application.
4. If Device Settings → Device Information → Licenses → Enable/Disable Applications → Advanced Phase
Measurement → Output Type is other than Disabled, disable it.
The Advance Phase Measurement application and the API Referral application cannot be enabled
simultaneously.
Configure API Referral using a field communicator
The API Referral parameters specify the API table, measurement units, and reference values to be used in
referred density calculations.
Prerequisites
You will need API documentation for the API table that you select.
Depending on your API table, you may need to know the thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) for your process
fluid.
You must know the reference temperature and reference pressure that you want to use.
Procedure
1. Choose Device Settings → Process Configuration → Optional Setup → API Referral.
2. Choose API Referral Setup.
3. Specify the API table that you want to use to calculate referred density.
Each API table is associated with a specific set of equations.
a) Set API Table Number to the number that matches the API table units that you want to use for
referred density.
Your choice also determines the measurement unit to be used for temperature and pressure,
and the default values for reference temperature and reference pressure.
