5.7.3 Meter sensors
A meter sensor receives information about the water
volume and flow and rainfall, in the case of rainfall
gages, that passes through the pipe.
The meter sensors are connected to a digital input. If
the digital input is from the base, in ‘Function - 4. Pa-
rameters - 10. Installer - 5. Various’, a back-torque filter
can be configured and it allows a maximum of 5 pulses
per second.

Sensor (00 ... 10): analog sensor number to configure
(1 to 10).
Input No.: digital input where the meter is connected.
See section 6 ‘Input and output coding’.
Type (Digital | Rain Gauge):
• digital: the meter closes a contact, producing a
pulse each time a known volume of water passes.
The flow rate is calculated by counting the time
between two pulses. It must be connected to a
digital input on the Agrónic or AgroBee modules.
• Rain gauge: the rain gage has a spoon that fills
with rain. It is automatically emptied when it is full,
generating a pulse. Each pulse is equivalent to a
quantity of water per m2.
Pulse value (00000,00 ... 90000,00 L): volume measured
by each pulse.
Maximum time between pulses (000 ... 999”): if more
than this time passes aer receiving a pulse, the in-
stantaneous flow rate goes to 0.
Flow in (m3/h | L/h | L/s):
• 000.00 m3/h: cubic meters per hour.
• 000.00 L/h: liters per hour.
• 000.00 L/s: liters per second.
Total in (0000 m3 | 0000.0 m3 | 000.00 m3 | 0000 L | 000.0 L
| 000.00 L | 0000 L/m2 | 000.0 L/m2 | 000.00 L/m2): units in
which the total volume is saved in history.
Text (0 ... 9 characters): identifying text of the sensor.
