Level One Hidden Diagnostics Values
•
Signal Strength
= A unitless measure of the amplitude of the received ultrasonic
signal displayed as a percentage (0 to 100). A value of 0 means there is no signal
being received. A value of 100 means the maximum amount of signal is being
received but a saturation state has not yet been met. Values over 100 mean that the
signal is attenuated to avoid being in a saturation state. Pipe size, material, fluid, etc.
affect this value.
•
V
= Calculated average pipe velocity (ft/sec).
•
Re
= Calculated Reynolds number.
•
Profile Factor
= Factory use only.
•
RTD1
= Optional RTD resistance in ohms.
•
RTD2
= Optional second RTD resistance value in ohms.
•
Viscosity
= Calculated viscosity of flowing fluid (cP).
•
Firmware
= Current revision of Firmware. This will match the firmware revision that
is displayed on the LCD screen when power is turned on to the handheld unit.
•
Internal Temperature =
Internal electronics temperature.
•
Rel. Roughness =
Factory use only.
•
Sig. Elapsed Time =
The amount of time between processing ultrasonic samples. It
helps to give an idea of how many samples can be processed in a second.
•
USB Connected
= Yes or no.
•
Battery I and V =
Current and voltage of the internal battery. Positive current is
battery charging. Negative current is battery discharging.
•
Battery Charge =
Total and remaining capacity of the battery in mAh.
•
Battery State =
State of charge of the battery (i.e. battery percentage remaining).
•
Delta T nS =
The difference in time in nanoseconds (nS) of the most recent sound
wave that was sent downstream compared to the sound wave that was sent upstream.
•
Enthalpy1 BTU/hr
= Factory use only.
•
Enthalpy2 BTU/hr
= Factory use only.
•
Ext. Comm =
External communications active. Yes or no.
•
Pulse Out Queue
= Pulse output queue. This value will accumulate if the totalizer is
accumulating faster than the pulse output hardware can function. The queue will
allow the pulses to “catch up” later if the flow rate decreases. A better practice is to
slow down the totalizer pulse by increasing the value in the (unit)/pulse setting in the
totalizer menu.
•
Gain
= Gain (applied to ultrasonic signal amplitude). Gain is typically set
automatically by the meter depending on the application. This value can be less than
1 at times as the meter can attenuate if the signal becomes saturated.
•
Index =
The number of the Gain setting being applied to the signal. The range of
numbers in the Index is 48 to 215. An index value of 48 is displayed at the largest
gain value. An index value of 215 is displayed at the smallest gain value.
