Emerson Micro-Motion 2400S - Using the Totalizers and Inventories; Viewing Current Totals for Totalizers and Inventories

64 Micro Motion
®
Model 2400S Transmitters with Analog Outputs
Using the Transmitter
The Communicator also maintains an alarm log. The alarm log contains one record for each of the
fifty most recent active Fault and Information status alarms. Ignore alarms are not listed. Each record
contains:
• The alarm code
• The alarm status (e.g., cleared but unacknowledged)
• The timestamp, which is the number of seconds that this alarm has been active, while the
transmitter has been powered on.
Note: The timestamp value is not reset during a transmitter power cycle. To reset this value, you must
perform a master reset or use a Modbus command. Contact Micro Motion customer support.
Note: The term “alarm log” as used in the Communicator is not the same as the ProLink II alarm log.
In ProLink II, the alarm log lists active and unacknowledged alarms. In the Communicator, the alarm
log contains alarm history, independent of current alarm status.
To view records in the alarm log, use the Config Alarms menu. To clear the alarm log, use the
Perform Diagnostic Action menu.
7.6 Using the totalizers and inventories
The totalizers keep track of the total amount of mass or volume measured by the transmitter over a
period of time. The totalizers can be started and stopped, and the totals can be viewed and reset.
The inventories track the same values as the totalizers, but inventory values can be reset separately.
This allows you to keep a running total of mass or volume across multiple resets.
The transmitter can store totalizer and inventory values up to 2
64
. Values larger than this cause the
internal totalizer to go into overflow.
7.6.1 Viewing current totals for totalizers and inventories
You can view current totals for the totalizers and inventories with the display (if your transmitter has a
display), ProLink II, or the Communicator.
With the display
You cannot view current totals with the display unless the display has been configured to show them.
See Sections 8.10.3 and 8.10.5.
1. To view totalizer values,
Scroll until the process variable TOTAL appears and the units of
measure are:
• For the mass totalizer, mass units (e.g., kg, lb)
• For the volume totalizer, volume units (e.g., gal, cuft, scf, nm3)
See Figure 7-1. Read the current value from the top line of the display.
2. To view inventory values,
Scroll until the process variable TOTAL appears and:
• For the mass inventory, the word
MASSI (Mass Inventory) begins to alternate with the
units of measure
• For the volume inventory, the word
LVOL I (Line Volume Inventory) begins to alternate
with the units of measure
• For gas volume inventory, the word
GSVI (Gas Standard Volume Inventory) begins to
alternate with the units of measure
See Figure 7-1. Read the current value from the top line of the display.
