Min/Max Electronics Temperatures
Allows the user to view the minimum and maximum temperatures that the
electronics have been exposed to.
Min Electronics Temp
Displays the lowest temperature that the electronics have been exposed to.
Max Electronics Temp
Displays the highest temperature that the electronics have been exposed to.
Self Test
Although the Rosemount 8800D performs continuous self-diagnostics, you
can initiate an immediate diagnostic to check for possible electronics failure.
Self Test checks proper communications with the transmitter and provides
diagnostic capabilities for transmitter problems. Follow on-screen instructions
if problems are detected, or check the appropriate appendix for error
messages relating to your transmitter.
Reset Transmitter
Restarts the transmitter - same as cycling power.
Loop Test Loop Test verifies the output of the flowmeter, the integrity of the loop, and
the operation of any recorders or similar devices. Conduct the loop test after
the flowmeter is installed in the field.
If the meter is located in a loop with a control system, the loop will have to be
set to manual control before the loop test is performed.
Loop Test allows the device to be set to any output between the 4 mA and 20
mA.
Pulse Output Test Pulse Output Test is a fixed frequency mode test that checks the integrity of
the pulse loop. It tests that all connections are good and that the pulse output
is running on the loop.
Flow Simulation Flow Simulation enables you to check the electronics functionality. This can
be verified with either the Flow Simulation Internal or Flow Simulation External
method. PV must be Volume Flow, Velocity Flow, or Mass Flow before Flow
Simulation can be used.
PV
Shows the flow value in current engineering units for the flow simulation.
