SETUP FUNCTIONS AND VARIABLES
1
TOTAL
11
UNIT
SETUP - 11 determines the measurement unit for total and
accumulated total.
The following units can be selected:
L - m3 - kg - lb. - GAL - USGAL - bbl - ---- (no unit).
Alteration of the measurement unit will have consequences for
operator and SETUP-level values.
Please note that the K-factor has to be adapted as well; the
calculation is not done automatically.
12
DECIMALS
The decimal point determines for total and accumulated total the
number of digits following the decimal point.
The following can be selected:
0000000 - 111111.1 - 22222.22 - 3333.333
13
K-FACTOR:
With the K-factor, the flowmeter pulse signals are converted to a
quantity. The K-factor is based on the number of pulses generated by
the flowmeter per selected measurement unit (SETUP 11), for
example per cubic meter. The more accurate the K-factor, the more
accurate the functioning of the system will be.
Example 1: Calculating the K-factor.
Let us assume that the flowmeter generates 2.4813 pulses per liter
and the selected unit is "cubic meters / m3". A cubic meter consists of
1000 parts of one liter which implies 2,481.3 pulses per m3. So, the
K-factor is 2,481.3. Enter for SETUP 13: "2481300" and for
SETUP 14 - decimals K-factor "3".
Example 2: Calculating the K-factor.
Let us assume that the flowmeter generates 6.5231 pulses per gallon
and the selected measurement unit is gallons. So, the K-Factor is
6.5231. Enter for SETUP 13: "6523100" and for SETUP 14 decimals
K-factor "6".
14
DECIMALS K-FACTOR
This setting determines the number of decimals for the K-factor
entered.
(SETUP 13). The following can be selected:
0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6
Please note that this setting influences the accuracy of the K-factor
indirectly (i.e. the position of the decimal point and thus the value
given).
This setting has NO influence on the displayed number of digits for
total (SETUP 12)!

Page 12
FW-F014-P-M_v0402_05_EN.docx
3.2.4 EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 2 - FLOWRATE
The settings for total and flowrate are entirely separate. In this way, different units of measurement
can be used for each e.g. cubic meters for total and liters for flowrate.
The display update time for flowrate is one second or more.
SETUP FUNCTIONS AND VARIABLES

FLOWRATE
21
UNIT
SETUP - 21 determines the measurement unit for flowrate.
The following units can be selected:
mL - L - m3 - mg - g - kg - ton - GAL - bbl - lb - cf - REV - ---- (no unit)
- scf - Nm3 - NL - P.
Alteration of the measurement unit will have consequences for
operator and SETUP-level values.
Please note that the K-factor has to be adapted as well; the
calculation is not done automatically.
22
TIME UNIT
The flowrate can be calculated per second (SEC), minute (MIN), hour
(HR) or day (DAY).
23
DECIMALS
This setting determines for flowrate the number of digits following the
decimal point.
The following can be selected:
00000 - 1111.1 - 2222.22 - 3333.333
24
K-FACTOR
With the K-factor, the flowmeter pulse signals are converted to a
flowrate.
The K-factor is based on the number of pulses generated by the
flowmeter per selected measurement unit (SETUP 21), for example
per liter. The more accurate the K-factor, the more accurate the
functioning of the system will be. For examples read SETUP 13.
25
DECIMALS K-FACTOR
This setting determines the number of decimals for the K-factor
(SETUP 24).
The following can be selected:
0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6
Please note that this SETUP - influences the accuracy of the K-factor
indirectly.
This setting has NO influence on the displayed number of digits for
"flowrate" (SETUP 23)!
26
CALCULATION
The flowrate is calculated by measuring the time between a number
of pulses, for example 10 pulses. The more pulses the more accurate
the flowrate will be. The maximum value is 255 pulses.
•the lower the number of pulses, the higher the power consumption
of the F014-P will be (important for battery powered applications).
•for low frequency applications (below 10Hz): do not program more
than 10 pulses else the update time will be very slow.
•for high frequency application (above 1kHz) do program a value of
100 or more pulses.
27
CUT-OFF
With this setting, you determine a minimum flow requirement thresh-
hold, if during this time less than XXX-pulses (SETUP 26) are
generated, the flowrate will be displayed as zero.
The cut-off time has to be entered in seconds - maximum time is 999
seconds (about 15 minutes).

POWER MANAGEMENT
41
LCD NEW
The calculation of the display-information influences the power
consumption significantly. When the application does not require a
fast display update, it is strongly advised to select a slow refresh
rate. Please understand that NO information will be lost; every pulse
will be counted and the output signal will be generated in the normal
way.
The following can be selected:
Fast - 1 sec - 3 sec - 15 sec - 30 sec - off.
Example battery life-time with a coil pick-up:
•1kHz pulse and FAST update: about 2 years.
•1kHz pulse and 1 sec update: about 5 years.
After a button has been pressed by the operator - the display refresh
rate will always switch to FAST for 30 seconds. When "OFF" is
selected, the display will be switched off after 30 seconds and will be
switched on as soon as a button has been pressed.
42
BATTERY MODE
The F014-P has two modes: operational or shelf.
After "shelf" has been selected, the F014-P can be stored for several
years; it will not process the sensor signal; the display is switched off
but all settings and totals are stored. In this mode, power consumption
is extremely low.
To wake up the F014-P again, press the SELECT/key twice.

The pulse width is set in milliseconds in the range 0.001 - 9.999 sec.
Value “zero” disable the pulse output.
If the frequency should go out of range - when the flowrate increases
for example - an internal buffer will be used to "store the missed
pulses": As soon as the flowrate slows down, the buffer will be
"emptied". It might be that pulses will be missed due to a buffer-
overflow, so it is advised to program this setting within its range!

DECIMALS
This setting determines the decimal position for setting 63.
The measuring unit is according to setting 11 (for total).

4.4 INSTALLING THE HARDWARE
4.4.1 INTRODUCTION
•Electro static discharge does inflict irreparable damage to electronics! Before installing or
opening the F014-P, the installer has to discharge himself by touching a well-grounded
object.
•This F014-P must be installed in accordance with the EMC guidelines (Electro Magnetic
Compatibility).
•Do ground the aluminum casing properly as indicated, if the F014-P has been supplied
with the 115-230V AC power-supply type PM. The green / yellow wire between the back-
casing and removable terminal-block may never be removed.
Fig. 7: Grounding aluminum enclosure with option PM 115-230 V AC.
FOR INSTALLATION, PAY EMPHATIC ATTENTION TO:
•Separate cable glands with effective IP67 (NEMA4X) seals for all wires.
•Unused cable entries: ensure that you fit IP67 (NEMA4X) plugs to maintain rating.
•A reliable ground connection for both the sensor, and if applicable, for the metal casing (above).
•An effective screened cable for the input signal, and grounding of its screen to the “┴“ terminal
or at the sensor itself, whichever is appropriate to the application.
