TIENet™ 360 LaserFlow Ex™
Velocity Sensor
Section 3 Setup with Signature® flowmeter
3.1 Configuring the
System
3.1.1 Updating the Device
List
360 Distance –
Distance between the bottom of the
sensor and the surface of the flow stream (refer to
Section 3.2.2).
360 Velocity –
Average velocity of the flow stream
360 Laser Temperature –
laser assembly
360 Y-Axis –
Tilt about the 'y' axis (pitch)
360 Ultrasonic Signal –
return echo
360 Sense Voltage –
M e a s u r e m e n t o f w i n d ow
clarity (under 100 mV) –
360 Input Voltage –
TIENet voltage measured by
the LaserFlow sensor
The LaserFlow Ex velocity sensor is compatible with both the
Teledyne ISCO Signature flowmeter and the Teledyne ISCO
2160 LaserFlow Module. For 2160 setup instructions, refer to
Section 4. For complete information about the Signature flow-
meter, refer to the Signature flowmeter user manual.
To configure the Signature flowmeter for operation with the
LaserFlow Ex sensor, press the "Menu" button (
the top menu, and then select "Hardware Setup". For all
TIENet devices including the LaserFlow Ex sensor, select
"Smart Sensor Setup (TIENet)".
When the LaserFlow Ex sensor has been physically added to the
system, select "Perform Scan" so that the flowmeter detects it.
When the scan is complete, the LaserFlow Ex sensor (model
number 360) appears in the list of connected devices, ready to be
configured with the steps shown in Figure 3-2.
Note
From the Hardware Setup menu, "Configure Measurements"
refers to defining and selecting the parameters for each con-
nected device.
The LaserFlow Ex sensor parameters are:
360 Level –
360 Case Temperature –

360 X-Axis –
Temperature of the
360 Laser Diode Current –
diode
360 Temperature –
Strength of the ultrasonic
360 Air Temperature –
