Description
Table of Contents
The 0252 Conguration Tool is a USB to Digital (S3L) convertor and Microsoft®
Windows® compatible software program used for interfacing with Signet 9900
Transmitters and blind sensors via a computer.
The 0252 tool and software allows:
• Set application parameters (Engineering units, 4 to 20 mA span, etc.)
• Save the setting conguration data to a computer le.
• Upload a previously stored conguration data le into the Signet product.
• Monitor a sensor's performance and log the data to a le.
• Reset the product settings to factory default condition.
Certain parameters (such as calibration) cannot be changed because access
to an external sensor is required.

Refer to the Direct Conductivity/Resistivity Module Instruction Sheet for instructions.
General Software Operation
Read Loads the data from the connected device (sensor or transmitter) and updates the software’s display.
NOTE: This will overwrite any changes made in the 0252 software since the last Write.
Write Applies the data entered in the 0252 software to the connected device. Once you have entered the desired
setting changes in the software screens, press Write to load your new settings onto the connected device.
Save Stores the entire 0252 settings con guration, as currently displayed in the application, to a speci ed location
on your computer. (You will be asked to select a  le location and provide a  le name)
Load Opens a previously saved settings con guration  le. See Save function above.
NOTE: The  le must be a 0252 settings con guration  le.
The software will verify whether the user-selected  le is the correct type.
Default Resets all data on all application screens to a factory default condition. A con rmation dialog box will be
presented with a warning explaining all un-saved con guration information will be erased.
After resetting the software to a factory default condition, click Write to reset the connected device to a
factory default condition.
NOTE: Performing the above reset to factory default condition will not change the input type on the
9900 Transmitter.
On all screens Read, Write, Save, Load, and Default buttons can be found in the lower right corner.

2551 & 2552 Operation
Notes:
Averaging
Set the time the Magmeter will use as the averaging period.
Example: With averaging at 14 seconds, each display is an average of the previous
14 seconds input. Use higher averaging times to smooth the display and current output
where the ow in the pipe is erratic.
Sensitivity
Set the percentage of change in the ow rate required to allow the Magmeter to override
AVERAGING and jump to a new ow rate immediately (2551 maximum range is 10 m/s).
See Magmeter manual for an explanation of Averaging and Sensitivity: www.gfsignet.com
Noise Rejection Select 50 Hz or 60 Hz according to local AC power specications.
Low Flow Cut Off
Set the ow rate where all Magmeter outputs will be forced to zero.
When the ow rate drops below this value, the frequency output will be 0 Hz and the
current output will be 4 mA.
