Chapter 1: Overview and Specifications Chapter : Overview and Specifications ® Overview of the Scanner 1141 ® The Scanner 1141 is an economical, single-stream or dual-stream measurement Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) with flow and pressure control capability. It offers a powerful alternative to chart recorders in gathering data for natural gas production and includes a full range of operator-selectable mass, energy, and volume algorithms.
Scanner 1141 Hardware User Manual The following features in the Scanner 1141 provide convenient and flexible operation: Configurable Memory - A full set of menu-selectable calculation options are stored in Flash memory in each Scanner 1141. As new industry standards are adopted, new programs are easily loaded from a PC with WinsLoad or ScanFLASH Utility software (See Appendix E: Flashing Scanner, page 113).
Chapter 1: Overview and Specifications Standard Display The standard display on the Scanner 1141 is a large 2-line × 16-character liquid crystal display (LCD) with optional backlighting.

Scanner 1141 Hardware User Manual Open Collector without “Bounce” This mode provides a generic pulse input that is compatible with a variety of pulse- producing devices and other end devices. A suitable end device is one that provides a bounce-free solid-state output stage, such as an open collector transistor or open-drain MOSFET.
Chapter 3: Main Circuit Board Wiring Magnetic Pickup Coil (Non-incendive) In this mode, the pulse input is directly connected to a standard variable-reluctance pickup coil. It is used on NuFlo gas and liquid turbine meters and other meters of similar design. The input uses a difference amplifier that provides common mode rejection, allowing the Scanner to operate with accuracy in noisy environments.

To determine if the analog output is installed, inspect the board for terminals 39 and 40. If they are not present, the option is not installed. Figure 3.21—Wiring diagram for analog 4-20 mA output If the analog 4-20 mA output is not installed, one can be obtained via the addition of an expansion board.
Chapter 3: Main Circuit Board Wiring Auxiliary Serial Ports The auxiliary serial ports (Resources A02 and A21) can be software-configured to support either RS-485, RS-232C communications, as shown in the ScanWin screen capture (Figure 3.23). Resources A02 and A22 also support TTL communications, depending on which hardware options are installed. The auxiliary RS-485 serial port switches (SW2 and SW6) are located along the left edge of the circuit board with the other jumpers and switches, opposite the terminal blocks.
Scanner 1141 Hardware User Manual When the Scanner is set to operate in low-power mode (via the ScanWin software System tab), the serial interface allows the output signals (TX and RTS) to be “powered-down” under software control to reduce power consumption when the serial port is inactive.

Appendix C: Principles of Operation Appendix C: Principles of Operation: The Scanner 1141 was based on the following principles of operation. Central Processing Unit (CPU) The system board utilizes a microcomputer, which provides an interrupt controller, a clock generator, and a demultiplexed data and address bus. In addition, it contains two serial ports, an 8-bit comparator port, and digital control lines that can be used for interfacing with various types of digital I/O.

Appendix C: Principles of Operation Power is further conserved through cycling and duty-cycling the end device’s sampling and calculation frequencies. The RS-232C interface is software-controlled and manages power supplied to a radio or modem for minimum power consumption. Analog Inputs The analog input circuits read voltages from 0 to 5 VDC.
Scanner 1141 Hardware User Manual RTD Inputs RTD inputs use a precision current source to measure the resistance of the RTD. Lead length compensation of the 3-wire RTD is accomplished by measuring the line resistance between terminals C1 and C2. The multiplexer, A/D converter and autocal are the same as the analog inputs. Each RTD input can be firmware-configured as two analog inputs.
