Force Transmit Procedure - Siemens SITRANS F Operating Instructions Manual

Section 2
Press <ENT>. The [Install Completed?] menu cell will indicate [Yes] after the 1010 is successfully
installed.
To complete the Install process, disregard the following paragraphs explaining the Force Trans-
mit and Force Frequency diagnostic software routines.
NOTE: If the transducers have been installed successfully but the Estimated Vs (sonic veloc-
ity) has been changed, the Pick/Install Xdcr menu cell [Install Completed?] option list
will also display the [Transfer Install] function selection. The Transfer Install function
allows the transducers to be optimally positioned for a different fluid, without the need
for a new Initial Makeup procedure (see the Water Calibration addendum in this manual
for details).

Force Transmit Procedure

This diagnostic software routine allows the user to "force" a transmitting condition that can be use to
search for an amplitude level (ALC) when Detection Fault or Low Signal alarms are present. The
routine forces the flowmeter to generate constant transmit bursts while reporting current receive signal
strength for the user. To initiate the Force Transmit function, refer to the example shown below.
1. After [Install] is selected press <ENT>. While the meter is going through the drives (see menu
screen below), press the <ALT> and <MENU> keys simultaneously.
