Overview
Process variables provide information about the state of the process fluid, such as flow
rate, density, and temperature, as well as running totals. Process variables can also provide
data about flowmeter operation, such as drive gain and pickoff voltage. This information
can be used to understand and troubleshoot your process.

View the desired process variables.
The display shows the configured display variables. For each display variable, the display
reports the abbreviated name of the process variable (for example, DENS for density), the
current value of that process variable, and the associated unit of measure (for example, G/
CM3).
If Auto Scroll is enabled, the display cycles through the display variables, showing each
display variable for a user-specified number of seconds. Whether or not Auto Scroll is
enabled, you can activate Select to move to the next display variable.
