Using the Transmitter
7.3 Viewing process variables
Process variables include measurements such as mass flow rate, volume flow rate, mass total, volume
total, temperature, and density.
You can view process variables with the display (if your transmitter has a display), ProLink II, or the
Communicator.
7.3.1 With the display
By default, the display shows the mass flow rate, mass total, volume flow rate, volume total,
temperature, density, and drive gain. If desired, you can configure the display to show other process
variables. See Section 8.10.3.
The LCD reports the abbreviated name of the process variable (e.g.,
DENS for density), the current
value of that process variable, and the associated unit of measure (e.g.,
G/CM3). See Appendix D for
information on the codes and abbreviations used for display variables.
To view a process variable with the display, press
Scroll until the name of the desired process variable
either:
• Appears on the process variable line, or
• Begins to alternate with the units of measure
See Figure 2-2.
7.3.2 With ProLink II
To view process variables with ProLink II:
1. The
Process Variables window opens automatically when you first connect to the transmitter.
2. If you have closed the
Process Variables window:
a. Open the
ProLink menu.
b. Select
Process Variables.
7.3.3 With the Communicator
To view process variables with the Communicator:
1. Press
2, 1.
2. Scroll through the list of process variables by pressing
Down Arrow.
