SPECIFICATIONS (continued) Power: COMMUNICATIONS OPTION (S1): BATTERY POWERED RS232 SERIAL SETUP SOFTWARE OPTION: Supplied with 1 or 2 C size Lithium battery pack. This option enables you to access a variety of process param- EXTERNAL POWER INPUT eters through serial communications. PC compatible com- Voltage: 8.5 to 30 VDC munications software is included with this option.
BATTERY INSTALLATION and REPLACEMENT Battery Installation: All BATRTM models are shipped without the battery(ies) installed. This preserves battery life when the unit is not in service. When using external BATPACK, mount within 12" and plug connector into 3 position square posts (see Fig 1).
THEORY OF OPERATION Flow rate equation: Flow total equation: Input Frequency Sum of Input Pulses x Time Scaler Flow Rate Indication = Flow Total = Where Time Scaler is equal to: 1 for rate per second read out 60 for rate per minute read out 3600 for rate per hour read out 86400 for rate per day read out “D”...
DEFINITIONS Save Total: (Save Total) Press the E key while the unit is running to save the total value. The display will show "save total" for a few seconds. This is a very useful "scratch pad" to save and restore total when replacing the battery(ies) ent Code: (enter code) This prompt will only appear if the panel lock is ON.

DEFINITIONS (continued) tdeC: (totalizer decimal) Sets the decimal location for the totalizer. The totalizer decimal is not a dummy decimal and will scale the totalizer display accordingly. (i.e. if the tdec is set in the tenths position (1234567.8), 100 will be displayed as 100.0).
Page 12
DEFINITIONS (continued) pUlscale: (pulse out scaling) This allows the unit to output a pulse for each least significant total count divided by the selected divider. The pulse out can be divided by 1 (d 1), 10 (d 10), 100 (d 100), or turned off (off). With the divider set at 1, the unit will give a pulse out for every increment of the LSD displayed.
PROGRAMMING FLOWCHART RATE Press the M key to enter the programming menu. RUN MODE TOTAL If panel lock OFF If panel If the panel lock is on, you must enter the 4 digit lock code to gain access lock ON to the menu.

Continued From Previous Page 9600 9600 Press the key to select the desired baud rate. BAUD RATE 4800 Press the E key to enter the displayed choice. 2400 baudrate Press the M key to skip and keep the existing choice. 1200 Press the key to select the desired parity.
OPERATION A suitable pulse producing device or flow meter is wired to one of the three pulse inputs provided on the BAT R/T-M. Only one of these inputs is used in a given application. There are no connections to the two unused pulse inputs. Isolated magnetic pickups may be connected to terminals 1 and 2.
ERROR MESSAGES The BATRT-M is provided with extensive self checking which assists the user in the location of setup entry errors and in reporting malfunctions or unusual operating conditions. When an error occurs, the display will flash. Press any key to see the error message corresponding to the error that has occurred. Press any key again to acknowl- edge the error.
