5.3 Configure the batching application
5.3.1 Configure global batching parameters
Configure global batching parameters using the display
The global batching parameters apply to all batch presets and all batches.
Procedure
1. Choose Menu > Configuration > Process Measurement > Batcher > Global.
2. Set Batch Variable to the process variable that will be used to configure and measure the batch.
Option Description
Mass Flow Rate The batch is measured by mass, using the current mass unit.
Volume Flow Rate The batch is measured by volume, using the current volume
unit.
API Corrected Vol Flow The batch is measured using the API calculated correction
factor.
GSV Flow (only if configured) The batch is measured using the Gas standard volume flow
rate.
CM Standard Vol Flow (when licensed
and enabled)
The batch is measured using the standard volume flow rate
at reference temperature.
CM Net Volume Flow (when licensed
and enabled)
The batch is measured using the net volume flow rate at
reference temperature.
CM Net Mass Flow (when licensed and
enabled)
The batch is measured using the net mass flow rate.
FL Flow Rate The batch is measured using the Frequency Input.
Example
The current measurement unit for mass flow rate is g/sec. The batch will be configured and measured
in g (grams).
3. Set Max Target to the largest batch that will be allowed.
• Default: 999999999.0 kg or the equivalent value in the configured measurement unit
• Range: Unlimited
If you try to set the batch target to a larger amount, the transmitter will reject the setting.
4. Set Max Batch Time to the maximum number of seconds that a batch will be allowed to run.
If the batch does not reach its target before this period expires, the batch is halted automatically and
an alert is posted.
• Default: 0 seconds
• Range: 0 to 86,400 seconds (1 day)
