Siemens MultiRanger 200 Application Manual

Flow Application Configuration
Configuring the MultiRanger 200 to measure open channel flow
Objective:
Specific parameter setting to configure the following primary measurement devices:
MultiRanger 200, transducer, IR Hand Held Programmer or Dolphin Plus software, and primary
Equipment:
measurement device.
While every effort was made to verify the following information, no warranty of accuracy or usability is expressed or implied.
Overview:
This application guide is an addition to the instruction manual. Please review manual to ensure you are familiar with configuring
the MultiRanger 200 using the IR Hand Held Programmer or the Dolphin Plus software tool.
Setting up the Common Parameters
These parameters are configured for all the open channel flow measuring applications supported by the MultiRanger 200.

Parameter and Value Definition **
Selects Open Channel Flow measurement.
Sets measured material to liquid.
Sets maximum processing speed, or speed of response, to
medium.
Selects transducer (e.g. 102 = XPS 10) connected to MultiRanger
200.
Sets units for head measurement (e.g 1 = meters).
Sets the distance from zero point of measurement (many times
bottom of the weir or channel) to the sensor surface. Head is
measured with reference to this zero point
Sets the range of head measurement. Often equal to the maximum
head.
Permits the liquid level to go below the zero point to the amount set
here without indicating an LOE condition (pre-set is 20% of span).
