1.2.1 INSTALLATION MENU OVERVIEW
For all FUS1020 models, site set up is accomplished under the control of an Installation Menu. The
Installation Menu presents all the site setup options consistent with the meter type installed. In other
words, the Installation Menu changes to be compatible with the particular meter type selected at the
"top" menu level.
The Installation Menu sequentially presents choices in related groups of information (such as Pipe
Data, Datalogger Setup, etc.). This menu structure makes it easy to locate any category that is rel-
evant to the application. Most Installation Menu items are pre-set to default values based on a factory
template. Because of these defaults, few steps are required to complete the usual site setup:
Create a site setup
Enter the pipe outer diameter
Enter the pipe wall thickness
Select a transducer type and size
After mounting the transducers on the pipe, complete the Xdcr Install procedure
Save the site setup, if so desired, by providing a unique file name
In addition, the operating system allows the factory template to be customized so as to suit user
preferences. This feature is particularly advantageous for users who may need to routinely re-install
the system at different locations within a facility. The system includes a comprehensive Diagnostic
Menu that provides real-time flow and related data, information on current operating conditions, plus
system test and recovery routines.
Please note that you can review site parameters at any time with little danger of altering the data, since
you would have to perform specific keystrokes to affect a change. The meter allows a site data dump,
either to a printer to obtain hard copy, or to a PC for storage as a data file. Retaining a copy of the site
setup is particularly important for flow calibrated systems.
1.2.2 OVERVIEW OF REAL-TIME DATA COLLECTION
Real-time operation commences after the completion of the site setup procedure. The real-time oper-
ating software's function is to collect the primary measurement data from the transducer system and
FUS1020 is a multitasking, multifunction system, all necessary operations are interleaved to guaran-
tee the fastest operation and greatest real-time data density.
Installation Menu choices govern the functionality of the real-time operating system. For example, data
will be reported either in data units selected by the installer during the site setup or default units, if the
installer chose not to edit that menu choice. You can access the Installation Menu at any time to
change the selected flow rate units. Note that changing primary site setup data like the pipe outer
diameter (OD) or the transducer model will invalidate the site setup, thus requiring a reinstallation.
1.2.3 STANDARD FEATURES
Similar features as in the 1010X family of flowmeters yet compact, integral design eliminates
running sensor cabling.
Bidirectional flow measurement up to 50 ft/sec (15 m/s) with active zero.
Accurate operation on any pipe material from 1/2" to 360" (12 to 9150mm) diameter.
