EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 3 - ALARM
The F132-P offers a no-flow monitoring feature: When the flowmeter does not generate a signal
during a certain (preset) time period, the F132-P will shut-off the control output(s) and bring the
batch controller in alarm status.

EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 5 - POWER MANAGEMENT
When used with the internal battery option (type PB/PC), the user can expect reliable measurement
over a long period of time. The F132-P has several smart power management functions to extend
the battery life time significantly. Two of these functions can be set.

EXPLANATION OF SETUP-MENU 6 - FLOWMETER
With this setting the type of flowmeter output is selected. The settings with LP (low-pass) filter are
used to apply a build-in noise reduction. Selections "active pulse" offer a detection level of 50% of
the supply voltage.

This setting is used to program the behavior of the no-flow alarm. When
the flow rate is zero, it is possible to ignore or disable the no-flow
monitoring.
This setting is used to set a delay time for the related alarm. When the
alarm condition is still valid after the delay time, an alarm is given.
This setting is used to set the behavior of the counter during a batch
process: count down (quantity to do) or count up (quantity done).
The backlight brightness can be adjusted from 0% (off) to 100% (full
brightness) in steps of 20%.
The calculation of the display-information influences the power
consumption significantly. When the application does not require a fast
display refresh rate, it is strongly advised to select a slow refresh rate.
Please understand that NO information will be lost; every pulse will be
counted and the output signals will be generated in the normal way.
At a key press, the display refresh rate will switch to FAST for 30 seconds.
When 'OFF' is selected, the display goes off after 30 seconds after the last
key press. The display temporarily comes on after a key press.
Example battery life-time with a coil pick-up:
• 1kHz pulse and FAST update: about 2 years;
• 1kHz pulse and 1 sec update: about 5 years.
The F132-P has two modes: operational or shelf.
After "shelf" has been selected, the F132-P can be stored for several years; it will
not process the sensor signal; the display is switched off but all settings and totals
are stored. In this mode, power consumption is extremely low.
To wake up the F132-P again, press the START/ key two times.
