Field communicator Device Settings → Process Configuration → Optional Setup → Configure Totalizers/Inventories
The transmitter provides seven configurable totalizers and seven configurable inventories. Each totalizer and
each inventory can be configured independently.
Totalizers track the process since the last totalizer reset. Inventories track the process since the last inventory
reset. Inventories are typically used to track the process across totalizer resets.
Tip
The default configurations cover the most typical uses of totalizers and inventories. You may not need to
change any configurations.
Prerequisites
Before configuring the totalizers and inventories, ensure that the process variables you plan to track are
available on the transmitter.
Procedure
1. Select the totalizer or inventory that you want to configure.
2. Set Totalizer Source or Inventory Source to the process variable that the totalizer or inventory will track.
Option
Description
Mass flow The totalizer or inventory will track Mass Flow Rate and calculate total
mass since the last reset.
Volume flow The totalizer or inventory will track Volume Flow Rate and calculate total
volume since the last reset.
Gas standard volume
flow
The totalizer or inventory will track Gas Standard Volume Flow Rate and
calculate total volume since the last reset.
Temperature-corrected
volume flow
The totalizer or inventory will track Temperature-Corrected Volume Flow
Rate and calculate total volume since the last reset.
Standard volume flow The totalizer or inventory will track Standard Volume Flow Rate and
calculate total volume since the last reset.
Net mass flow The totalizer or inventory will track Net Mass Flow Rate and calculate total
mass since the last reset.
Net volume flow The totalizer or inventory will track Net Volume Flow Rate and calculate
total volume since the last reset.
Note
The totalizer/inventory value will not automatically be reset when the source is changed. The user must
manually reset the totalizer/inventory.
Tip
If you are using the API Referral application and you want to measure batch-weighted average density
or batch-weighted average temperature, you must have a totalizer configured to measure temperature-
corrected volume flow.
3. Set Totalizer Direction to specify how the totalizer or inventory will respond to forward or reverse flow.
Option
Flow direction Totalizer and inventory behavior
Forward Only Forward Totals increment
Reverse Totals do not change
