Glossary
POSFLOW
Totalizer mode for positive flow total only.
Register
Refers to a memory location used by the flowmeter to store data such as the flow total, etc.
RTD
Resistive Temperature Device. Temperature sensors used with energy flow of mass flow
systems.
Sensor
Refers to entire spool piece in some instances. Flow sensors that the flowmeter uses to
measure the flow rate. Also called transducers.
Site Name
A user-entered name that the flowmeter associates with a stored Site Setup. You retrieve a
particular Site by selecting its name from a site name list.
Site Setup
A collection of parameters used by the flowmeter to service a specific site (or location). The
flowmeter allows you to store several independent Site Setups.
Site Storage Memory
Section of RAM allocated for permanent data storage. This memory segment stores inactive
site setups (including a backup of active site). The flowmeter's Site Setup storage capacity
depends on the dynamic memory allocation as dictated by each application. In addition, the
flowmeter uses Site Storage Memory to store configurable operating parameters such as pipe,
liquid or gas tables.
Spacing Index
Refers to the Number Index used by the flowmeter to determine the space between the
upstream and downstream sensors on clamp-on systems.
Spacing Offset
Fixed sensor offset assigned by the flowmeter. This can be overridden by the installer.
TOTCNT
A Totalizer pulse count function used for Batching or Sampling.
