Reference Manual 00809-0100-4664, Rev BA Rosemount 8712 January 2010 This software technique, known as signal processing, “qualifies” individual flow signals based on historic flow information and three user-definable parameters, plus an on/off control. These parameters are: Number of samples: The number of samples function sets the amount of time that inputs are collected and used to calculate the average value.

January 2010 When Should Signal Processing Be Used? The Rosemount 8712 offers three separate functions that can be used in series for improving a noisy output. The first step is to toggle the coil drive to the 37 Hz mode and initialize with an auto zero. If the output is still noisy at this stage, signal processing should be actuated and, if necessary, tuned to match the specific application.
