PULSAR MEASUREMENT
11
MAIN DISPLAY
The main display shows the units selected from the Units/Mode menu, flow or
velocity rate being measured, totalizer and relay states. The DFM 6.1 will start-
up with this display.
MESSAGE ICON
Press from the main display to view status of the data logger and
error/warning messages provided by the instrument. The Message Icon will
appear on the main display if error messages are being generated by the
instrument. Press to return to the main display.
Sensor
Displays the status of the sensor hardware. Even with the
sensor disconnected or shorted, the DFM will display
Good. To check sensor integrity, use the sensor resistance
test procedure on page 28. If HardwareFault is detected,
navigate to the Configuration page in the Main Menu to
determine which circuit board is not communicating.
STATUS
Press from the main display to view instrument status. Velocity will be
displayed in ft/sec or m/sec.
Velocity
Displays the measured flow velocity in units selected in the
Units/Mode menu.
Flow
Displays the measured flow rate in units selected in the
Units/Mode menu.
Min Flow
Displays the minimum flow rate setting. This value is read-
only. The Min Flow can be changed in the Calibration
programming menu. A measured Flow value below the Min
Flow value will display as 0 flow on the meter’s LCD display.
Signal
Displays the strength of the received Doppler signal on a 0-
100% scale.
Signal Cutoff
Displays the signal cutoff. This value is read-only. The Signal
Cutoff can be changed in the Calibration programming
menu. If Signal Strength is less than Signal Cutoff, the
meter will report 0 velocity and flow on the LCD display.
Setting may need to be adjusted in the case of unstable
flow near zero, or when high levels of industrial noise are
present.
