display offset value and is automatically stored as the new display offset value pggtu if another zero tare display is performed the display will again change to zero and the display reading will shift accordingly note in the following explanations not all selections are available for both user inputs and front panel function keys alternating displays are shown with each selection those

5.5 module 5 totalizer integrator parameters upu parameter menu the totalizer accumulates integrates the input display value using one of two modes the first is using a time base this can be used to provide an indication of total flow usage or consumption over time the second is through a user input or function key programmed for batch one time add on demand this can be used for weighting applications where accumulation is based on a completed event if the totalizer is not needed its display can be locked-out and this module can be skipped during programming totalizer batching the totalizer time base is overridden when a user input or function key is programmed for store batch c u in this mode when the user input or function key is activated the input display reading is one time added to the totalizer batch the totalizer retains a running sum of each batch operation until the totalizer is reset this is useful in weighting operations when the value to be added is not based on time but after a filling event e 1u « ª ucbt « ª jo totalizer decimal point totalizer using time base totalizer accumulates as defined by input display x totalizer scale factor totalizer time base where input display the present input reading totalizer scale factor 0.001 to 65.000 totalizer time base the division factor of for most applications this matches the input display decimal point e 1u if a different location is desired refer to totalizer scale factor totalizer time base t seconds ÷ 1 ipvs hours ÷ 3600 minutes ÷ 60 ebz days ÷ 86400 uc 4 for most applications this matches the process rate the input display value represents example input display is in gallons per minute then use minutes time base if the totalizer is being accumulated through a user input programmed for batch then this parameter does not apply example the input reading is at a constant rate of 10.0 gallons per minute the totalizer is used to determine how many gallons in tenths has flowed because the input display and totalizer are both in tenths of gallons the totalizer scale factor is 1 with gallons per minute the totalizer time base is minutes 60 by placing these values in the equation the totalizer will accumulate every second as follows 10.0 x 1.000 1667 gallon accumulates each second 60 this results in 10.0 gallons accumulates each minute 600.0 gallons accumulates each hour 4 « ª totalizer scale factor to for most applications the totalizer reflects the same decimal point location and engineering units as the input display in these cases the totalizer scale factor is 1.000 the totalizer scale factor can be used to scale the totalizer to a different value than the input display common possibilities are 1 changing decimal point location example tenths to whole 2 changing engineering units example inches to meters 3 changing both decimal point location and engineering units 4 average over a controlled time frame details on calculating the scale factor are shown later totalizer scale factor calculation examples 1 when changing the totalizer decimal point e 1u location from the input display decimal point e 1u the required totalizer scale factor is multiplied by a power of ten example input e 1u 0.0 input e 1u 0.00 totalizer e 1u 0.00 0.0 0 x10 x100 scale factor totalizer e 1u 0.000 0.00 0.0 0 x10 scale factor -pdvu « ª q vq « ª /0 totalizer low cut value 10 1

totalizer can be reset to zero on each meter power-up by setting this parameter to reset totalizer high order display when the total excceds 5 digits the front panel annunicator tot flashes in this case the meter continues to totalize up to a 9 digit value the high order 4 digits and the low order 5 digits of the total are displayed alternaterly the letter i denotes the high order display x totalizer display is round by tens or hundreds 2 when changing the totalizer engineering units the totalizer scale factor is the known conversion multiplier from input display units to totalizer units example if input display is feet and thetotalizer needs to be in yards the conversion multiplier from feet to yards is 0.333 enter 0.333 as the totalizer scale factor 3 when changing both the totalizer engineering units and totalizer decimal point then the two calculations are multiplied together example input display feet in tenths 0.0 with totalizer whole yards 0 the scale factor would be 0.033 4 to obtain an average reading within a controlled time frame the selected totalizer time base is divided by the given time period expressed in the same timing units example average temperature per hour in 4 hour period the scale factor would be 0.250 to achieve a controlled time frame connect an external timer to a user input programmed for supu the timer will control the start reset and the stopping hold of the totalizer factory setting can be used without affecting basic start-up 524
