1. SMART COMMUNICATION UNIT
1.1 General
Described in this manual are the operating instructions to use the Smart Communication Unit Model
EL2310 which operates in the Microsoft operating system Windows environment.
The EL2310 is a communication terminal designed for use in combination with a personal computer
(hereinafter referred to as PC) and any one of the OVAL Coriolis series flowmeters to set up, alter,
adjust, or read out parameters and variables, through interactive communications, locally at the point of
measurement or from a terminal in a remote location. Using a Windows PC at hand, you can monitor
multiple windows on its screen.
※1.TheEL2310operatesontheapplicationsoftware"LinkTop"furnished.
※2.ThisinstructionmanualappliestothetransmitterST9801(MT9603)for the STmass MKⅡ,
transmitter CT9401 (MT9411) for the ULTRAmas MKⅡ(including the Mass Flex), transmitter EV9201
for the VRmass,"D"sensorandextra-highpressureservicetransmitterMT9431
The application software automatically distinguishes between the transmitter connected and
changes the window accordingly from the STmass MKⅡto the VRmass, and vice versa.
Since they basically have windows in common, the windows covered in this manual are of the
ULTRAmass MKⅡ.

2.2 Hookup with Associated Equipment and Devices
Equipmentset-upwithassociatedequipmentanddevicesareshowninFig.2.
NOTE: In Fig. 2, the customer is to supply the PC that meets the following requirements:
◇PC/AT compatible (DOS/V machine)
◇Operating system is the Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 to 10.
◇RAM: 8MB or larger.
◇Hard disk: 10MB or larger
◇Provision of USB port
Thereceivinginstrumentinthefigureaboverequiresaloadresistance250Ωmin.Itsupperlimitdepends
on the specification of transmitter used.
Ifthereceivinginstrumentdoesnothaveabuilt-inRL, use it with an external RLconnected in series.

3.2 Starting the LinkTop and Connections
①Hookuptheowmetertransmitter,PCinterfaceadapter,and"LinkTop"preinstalledPCasshownin
Fig. 2.
②TogettheLinkTopupandrunning,clickfrom"Start"atlowerleftofthePCscreenandclick"LinkTop
 forCoriolis3(J)"from"Program".
③Click"Portsetting(I)Ctrl+I"in"File(F)"atthetop-levelmenuofscreen.
④Set up the port.
Select the option labeled COM □(USB)andclick"OK"( □is the port number connected to the interface).
⑤OnseetingthescreenliketheoneshowninFig.7,click"Connect(C)F3"in"File(F)"atthetop-level
menu of screen.
⑥AtthemessageboxasliketheoneinFig.8,click"OK"buttonandtheconnectionprocessbegins.

⑦Asyouclick"OK"andstarttheconnectionprocess,amessageboxliketheoneinFig.9appears.
A bar graph in the middle of message box indicates progress of connection process.
When the connection process begins, the transmitter connected is automatically identified and the
transmitternameappearsinthetitlebar.Amessageindicating"ongoingcommunication"appearsat
lowerleftofthescreenwith"IDLE" ⇔"RXWAIT"shownalternately.
⑧Uponcompletionofconnections,amessageboxliketheoneinFig.10appears.Click"OK"button.
⑨Whenconnectioniscomplete,ofthemenusatthetop-levelmenuofscreen,certainitemsthathad
