Waveform viewer

View the transducer waveforms
Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Flow Meters includes a feature for streaming transducer
waveforms that can be viewed using the Daniel MeterLink Tools |Waveform Viewer
screen. The speed at which the waveforms update is dependent upon the type of
connection between the PC and the meter. With an Ethernet connection and Daniel
MeterLink, several updates per second are possible. With a serial connection, updates may
occur only every 15 to 30 seconds.
Up to three types of waveform signals can be displayed per chord:
•
•
112
• Include read-only registers: includes, in the compare, read-only registers stored
in the collected configurations. This includes points like firmware version, K-
factors, etc.
Click Save to save the configuration file. A default filename is provided based on the
meter name, time, and date the configuration was collected. You can keep the
default name or change it. The file is saved, by default, to the Data folder directory
defined under Program Settings. You may change the directory location if desired.
Click Print to print the configuration currently opened in the editor. Only the
registers in the currently selected view will be printed. You can also click the print
icon, , on the tool bar to print the opened configuration.
Use Convert to download the configuration from a legacy Daniel Ultrasonic meter to
later generation of electronics.
• First connect to the legacy electronics. Collect and save the configuration using
the Edit/Compare Configuration dialog box. Upgrade the electronics on the
meter.
• Connect to the new meter electronics and open the Edit/Compare Configuration
dialog. Open the configuration collected from the legacy electronics. The
Convert button is enabled.
• Click Convert to read the configuration from the new meter and modify it with
the data from the legacy configuration. Daniel MeterLink displays this modified
configuration in the dialog. At this point, Daniel MeterLink has not written
anything to the new meter. All the values highlighted in yellow are values from
the legacy configuration.
• Click Write Checked to write the changed portion of the configuration to the
new meter. If any data point failed to be written, you must correct the invalid
value and click Write Checked again until the configuration is written without
any errors. Once the configuration is written, you can choose to compare the
displayed configuration with the configuration in the meter by selecting Meter
and clicking Compare. This will verify everything was written correctly.
Raw - the sampled waveform received by the transducer (with gain applied)
Stacked - the result of applying stacking to the raw signal(s). Note that when
stacking is not used (StackSize is set to 1), the stacked signal is the same as the raw
signal.
