Configuring the host controller

The procedures included in this section describe the configuration of the ABB Totalfllow host controller to support the
LevelMaster. The host controller can be a flow computer or remote controller in the Totalflow product family. The term host
controller may be used to refer to either type of product.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The installation and configuration of the host controller (remote controller or flow computers)
is beyond the scope of this manual. Only pertinent details to their interface and communication configuration with
the LevelMaster are included in this manual. Refer to the user manual and the help files in PCCU32 for details.
This manual focuses on procedures when using ABB Totalflow products. If using third-party control equipment,
consult their respective user manuals.
Flow computers or remote controllers can be configured to poll the LevelMaster at user-programmable intervals and can store
the current level and temperature measurements. LevelMaster measurements received by the host controller can also be used
by other control applications, enabled in the host controller, for level control if required. Tank level and temperature
measurement data received from the LevelMaster is available on the controller for retrieval by PCCU32 or WinCCU32.
The configuration consists of setting up the LevelMaster application which handles the connection with the LevelMaster within
the host controller. The configuration involves:
Setup of the communication parameters for RS-485 communication between the host controller and the LevelMaster
Defining the number of LevelMasters that will be connected (number of tanks)
Setup of the controller display for visual display of LevelMaster alarms or status
Setup of the controller for volume calculation
IMPORTANT NOTE: The LevelMaster application has online help files that can be displayed by clicking Help from
the LevelMaster screens in PCCU32.
Configuration procedures may vary depending on the product model used as well the PCCU32 version used. Table 7 provides
the PCCU version numbers for different generations of Totalflow equipment.
Tools required:
Laptop computer
Applicable PCCU32 version (see Table 7)
MMI cable (RS-232), USB cable or Ethernet cable (depending on what port is available for local communication on the host
controller)
