13 Advanced Measuring Functions
13.1 Damping Factor
Each displayed measured value is a floating average of all measured values of the last x
seconds, with x being the damping factor. A damping factor of 1 s means that the mea-
sured values are not averaged because the measuring rate is approx 1/s. The default
value of 10 s is appropriate for normal flow conditions.
Strongly fluctuating values caused by high flow dynamics require a higher damping fac-
tor.
Select the program branch Output Options. Press ENTER until the menu item Damp-
ing is displayed.
Press BRK to return to the main menu.
13.2 Totalizers
Total volume or total mass of the medium at the measuring point can be determined.
There are two totalizers, one for the positive flow direction, one for the negative flow di-
rection.
The unit of measurement used for totalizing corresponds to the volume or mass unit se-
lected for the physical quantity.
The value of a totalizer consists of max. 11 digits, including max. 4 decimal places. For
the adjustment of the number of decimal places see section 18.6.
Enter the damping factor. Press ENTER.
To activate the totalizers, press key during the mea-
surement (see Tab. 13.1).
The value of the totalizer will be displayed in the upper line
(here: the volume which has passed through the pipe at
the measuring point in the positive flow direction after the
activation of the totalizers).
