    Their color and text will change depending on the current operating status of the meter. A QR code is also available which will link your cellphone to ONICON’s website 3.2.1 CONNECTION INDICATOR This indicator provides information about the current status of the hardware connection to the turbine meter.
  • Page 10: Status Indicator

    The mode indicator notifies the user if the meter is in “Running” mode or “Calibration” mode. “Calibration” mode is only used by ONICON during a factory calibration. If you receive a meter which states the mode is “Calibration,” please contact ONICON immediately.
  • Page 11: Programming/Informational Tabs

    Manufacture Date (Read Only) The date that your meter was manufactured at ONICON. This date may not match the calibration date if the meter has been returned to ONICON for recalibration service after the original manufacture date.
  • Page 12 This is the version number of the ONICON Insertion Turbine Meter firmware. This number is also available on the window of the program. ONICON may ask for this number if you are experiencing problems with the utility or turbine meter.

    For these reasons, the meter type is set at the factory and is read-only. If “F-1101 and F-1134” is the meter type, then there will be no further information within the Pipe Selection tab. ONICON Incorporated 727.447.6140 Page 13 onicon.com...
  • Page 14 The white box above the “Select Standard Pipe” button will auto-fill with the description of the selected pipe: Selecting pipe size and confirming via “Select Standard Pipe” button ONICON Incorporated 727.447.6140 Page 14 onicon.com...
  • Page 15 • The “Dry Tap Kit” is a ball valve assembly designed to be installed during new construction or when the pipe was drained. An example of a “dry tap kit” is an ONICON INSTL0001-FMD for carbon steel pipe. The valve assembly height assumed for this calculation is 5.5 inches.
  • Page 16 • The “Hot Tap Kit” is a ball valve assembly designed to be installed after the pipe was filled, allowing a wet tap drill to cut the pipe without draining it first. An example is an ONICON INSTL0002-FMH for carbon steel pipe. The valve assembly height assumed for this calculation is 6.875.
  • Page 17: Flow Settings

    After entering the value on this page, press the “Set” button to permanently program the meter with this output scale. ONICON recommends that the analog output range is set to 1.25 times larger than the maximum realistic flow rate which could occur in the system.
  • Page 18 The conversion factor was set to 500. The full-scale flow rate in user units was set to 5,000,000. The number is converted to gpm as follows: Full Scale in Defined (units per hour) Full Scale Equivalent (gpm) = 60 x Conversion Factor ONICON Incorporated 727.447.6140 Page 18 onicon.com...
  • Page 19: Frequency Output

    The frequency output is available on every version of the turbine meter. The frequency output is typically only used with an ONICON display or BTU meter as a digital input for flow rate and totalization, but it can also be used for diagnostics by measuring the speed (Hz) of the output with a multimeter.

If the meter is connected directly to a BMS via the analog output, or connected to an ONICON display or BTU meter, it should be verified that the reading in this parameter matches the BMS/ ONICON display or BTU meter. It should also, be confirmed that the units of measurement match between turbine meter and BMS/ONICON display or BTU meter.
