Some reasons for low signal are:
• Invoking [Install Complete?] on
an empty pipe.
• Coupling compound insufficient,
not applied or evaporated. Reap-
ply couplant.
• A disconnected or broken sen-
sor cable.
• The pipe needs to be condi-
tioned at the mounting location.
• Flush out large air bubbles.
• The sensor cables are defec-
tive or not connected to the cor-
rect channel.
• The Set Empty routine per-
formed when pipe was NOT ac-
tually empty.
• If you locate and correct the im-
proper condition immediately trig-
ger <ENTER> to resume the in-

trigger the <Left Arrow> to abort

ough investigation.
Low Signal - Press <ENTER> During the Initial Makeup the flow
meter decides that a level of the re-
ceive signal is insufficient for proper
operation.
Attempt to improve operating con-
ditions by reinstalling the sensors
at a different spacing offset, or
even at a different location on the
pipe.
Switching from Reflect to Direct
Mount may solve the problem.
However, operation may not be
possible if there is poor liquid, pipe
wall sonic conductivity or extreme
liquid aeration.
If it appears that the flow meter can
not complete an Initial Makeup this
means that the pipe and/or liquid con-
ditions do not permit a recieve signal
that meets the flow detection stan-
dards.
The system will not operate.

2. DIN Pipe Table Note
In Section 2, add the following note right after paragraph 2.2.1 How to Select a Pipe Class:
NOTE:
The DN sizes listed in the [Select Pipe Size] menu option list are referenced to DIN Table
2448. After selecting pipe size, check pipe OD and wall thickness for correct dimensions.
3. Empty Pipe Set Procedure Update
In Section 2, paragraph 2.4.10 Empty Pipe Set Menu replace the introductory paragraphs and
warning with the following:
The flow meter performs the MTYmatic routine automatically during its Initial Make-up to estab-
lish a standard setting for the Empty Pipe alarm. This process is normally sufficient for setting
this parameter. The [Empty Pipe Set] option list allows you to re-invoke MTYmatic, use an
Actual MTY routine (if application conditions allow you to empty and refill the pipe) or use the
Set Empty routine to set the empty pipe threshold by direct numeric entry.
How To Use the Actual MTY Command
If application conditions allow you to empty and refill the pipe, then you may choose to perform
the Actual Empty procedure; however, it is not required to do so.
WARNING: NEVER perform the Actual MTY procedure if the pipe can not be emptied.

Digital Damping Procedure Update for Gas & Liquid Flowmeters
INTRODUCTION
The following Digital Damping procedure updates are for SITRANS F gas and liquid clamp-on
flowmeters.Replace the Digital Damping Control: (Hot Key 1 and 2) procedure in the “Detection Modes”
section (sub-paragraph: Command Modes) in the appropriate gas and liquid STIRANS F flowmeter
manuals.
FUG1010 Gas Clamp-on Flowmeter Manuals
Digital Damping Control: (Hot Key 1 and 2)
The FUG1010 permits user modification of the digital averaging used by the signal processing routines.
In general, the default damping values selected by the FUG1010 will provide optimal performance over
a wide range of transit time applications. However, in extreme cases of unstable flow, pulsating flow,
low signal levels or high electronic noise it may be necessary to override these default settings to
permit uninterrupted and reliable flow measurement.
Test Facilities Graph Screen
The FUG1010 Graph Screen includes the capability to access a set of command codes, which enable
a user to override a number of default meter settings. The most important parameter is the digital
damping control, which can be accessed by pressing number <1> or <2> on the keypad while in the
Signal Graph Screen mode.
[MinDamp] Command
Pressing the <1> key will cause [MinDamp #] to appear on the command line at the lower left-hand
corner of the screen. The number listed to the right of the command code represents the exponent in
the FUG1010 exponential averaging routine, where the larger the number the greater the digital averaging.
Pressing the <+> key will increase the damping value. Likewise, pressing the <-> key will decrease
the damping value. To exit this mode, press the <0> key on the keypad.
[MaxDamp] Command
Pressing the <2> key will bring up the [MaxDamp] command. The function of this parameter is similar
to the [MinDamp] command described above; however, the two parameters interact in the following
manner. The MinDamp value must not exceed the MaxDamp value, therefore increasing the MinDamp
value above the previous MaxDamp value will set both parameters to the same value. In most cases,
it is preferred that both damping parameters be set to the same value, however, in cases where rapid
response to changes in gas sound velocity for flow rate is required, the two values may be set differently.
In this situation the meter will use the MaxDamp value when conditions are stable, but then switch to
a faster damping value (limited by MinDamp) when a significant change in sound velocity or flow rate
is perceived. To exit this mode, press the <0> key on the keypad.

Manual Addendum 1010FMA-58

Setting the Digital Damping Factor to a value HIGHER than the default value of 4 may be necessary
in cases where the signal to noise ratio (SN) is found to be unacceptably low (<15:1), but only if the
noise is determined to be asynchronous (i.e., not associated with the transmit or flowmeter timing
circuitry) as shown in the signal example above, where the baseline noise has a higher frequency
than the true gas signal.
The following application conditions may require a higher Digital Damping Factor:
zClose proximity to pressure control valves which may generate in-band acoustic noise
zVery low acoustic signal levels (ALC < 40%)
zHigh electronic noise from variable frequency drives or other external equipment.
To access the Digital Damping Control using the Test Facilities Graph Screen, proceed as follows:
1. To use the Test Facilities Graph Screen you must have a working site.
2. To activate the Test Facilities Graph Screen:
zIn the main menu, scroll to the [Diagnostic Data] menu and select [Test Facilities].
zScroll down to [Graph], press the <Right Arrow> and highlight [Yes]. Press <ENT> to select.
zThe Test Facilities Graphic Screen will appear on the meter display as shown below.

Manual Addendum 1010FMA-58
To INCREASE the Digital Damping:
1. Press the <1> key while viewing the Test Facilities Graph Screen as shown above. The damping
control [MinDamp #] should appear on the command line at the lower left-hand corner of the
screen.
Note: The number listed to the right of the command code on the screen represents the
exponent in the exponential averaging routine, where the larger the number represents
the greater the digital averaging. Setting this exponent higher than 7 is generally not
recommended.
2, Pressing the <+> key will increase the MinDamp Factor by one unit for each key press. To exit this
mode, press the <0> key on the keypad.
Setting the Digital Damping factor to a value LOWER than the default value of 4 may be justified in
cases where pulsating flow is present (such as from a reciprocating compressor) or for the purpose
of diagnosing transient signal behavior. A pulsating flow condition that generates more than +/- 45
degrees of phase jitter will generally cause signal correlation problems when any digital averaging is
used. In this case it may be necessary to completely eliminate the digital averaging by reducing the
Digital Damping Factor to 0. In such a case it may also be necessary to install a narrow band tuned
amplifier (Input Module) if too much asynchronous noise exists.
To DECREASE the Digital Damping:
1. Press the <2> key while viewing the Test Facilities Graph Screen. The damping control [MaxDamp
#] should appear on the command line at the lower left-hand corner of the screen.
2. Pressing the <-> key will decrease the MaxDamp Factor by one unit for each key press. To exit this
mode, press the <0> key on the keypad.
The above example shows that increasing the Digital Damping reduces asynchronous noise.
