Configuring the Core Interface

5.1

About this chapter

This chapter explains how to configure the interface between the Model 3711 and the Micro Motion
Coriolis sensor.
Note: The terms "core" and "core processor" refer to the component which provides preprocessing
of the sensor data. In the Model 3711 system, the Model 3711 component communicates with the core
processor component, rather than directly with the sensor.
Note: In this chapter, the word "sensor" refers to the Micro Motion Coriolis sensor which is used to
measure gas flow. Other sensors may be included in the installation, such as a pressure sensor, a
temperature sensor, and so on. Configuration of these sensors is not covered in this chapter or this
manual.
Additional information is provided on the topics of characterization, damping, meter factors, and slug
flow. Finally, the sensor zero procedure and the density calibration procedures are discussed.

Configuration overview

To access the sensor configuration panels, click
several panels is loaded. To configure the sensor interface, you must:
Configure parameters on the Mass Flow panel
Configure parameters on the Density panel
Configure parameters on the Temperature panel
Note: This display provides other functions in addition to configuration. This chapter discusses only
sensor configuration. Information on other functions is provided elsewhere in this manual.
After the sensor is configured, you must perform a sensor zero (see Section 5.6).
