Transducer Block
4.4.6 Display
The Local Display Function on the flowmeter selects which variables are shown on the
optional (M5) local display. The flow transmitter with the ability to measure process
temperature (MTA) has additional display options as noted. Choose from the following
variables:
Flow
Percent of Range
Process Temperature (MTA Only)
Process Density (MTA and Saturated Steam Only)
Shedding Frequency
Electronics Temperature (MTA Only)
Integrator Block Output
4.4.7 Modes
Target mode
The transducer block supports two modes of operation as defined by the MODE_BLK
Parameter:
Automatic (Auto)—The channel outputs reflect the analog input measurement.
Out of Service (OOS)—The block is not processed. Channel outputs are not updated
and the status is set to Bad: Out of Service for each channel. The BLOCK_ERR
parameter shows Out of Service. In this mode, you can make changes to all
configurable parameters. The target mode of a block may be restricted to one or
more of the supported modes.
Flow simulation
Flow Simulation enables you to check the electronics functionality. This can be verified with
the Flow Simulation Internal and Flow Simulation External method. See C.2: Electronics
verification.
Flow
Flow shows the flow value in current engineering units for the flow simulation.
Shedding frequency (secondary value)
Shedding Frequency (Secondary Value) shows the shedding frequency for the flow
simulation.
Shedding frequency at URV
Shedding Frequency at URV gives the shedding frequency corresponding to your upper
range value.
Simulation control
Simulation Control allows you to configure your flow simulation using internal or external
simulation.
