Commissioning The Unit; Switching On Auxiliary Power; Device Configuration - ABB FXE4000 Commissioning Instructions

Startup Operation
• The flowmeter primary must be installed at a largely vibration-free location.
• The flowmeter primary and the converter must be assigned properly for the model FXE4000
(MAG-XE). The flowmeters primary have an end number of X1, X2, etc., on the name plate.
The transmitters have the end numbers Y1, Y2, etc. End numbers X1 and Y1 are considered
a unit.
• Pulse output setting.
The pulse output can be operated as active output (24 VDC pulse) or as passive output
(optocoupler). Settings for the pulse output are shown in the following figure.

Switching on auxiliary power

After switching on the auxiliary power, the flowmeter data in the external EEPROM is compared
with the data saved internally. If the data is not identical, the transmitter uploads data from the
external EEPROM automatically. Once completed, the message "Primary data are loaded" is
displayed. The measuring equipment is now ready for operation.
The display shows the current flowrate.

Device configuration

The parameter setting can be done prior shipment in accordance to customer specifications
upon request. If no customer information is available, the device is delivered with factory
settings.
On-site configuration requires only a few parameter settings. For information on settings, refer
to the chapter "Parameterization". A short overview of the menu structure can be found in the
section "Parameter overview".
The following parameters should be checked or set before start-up:
1. Flow range (menu items "Range" and "Unit").
The device is set to the largest flow range, unless other customer information is available.
The ideal flow range is approximately 2-3 m/s. First set the engineering unit of the flow range
(e.g., m3/h or l/s) under menu item "Unit", and then set the flow range end value under
"Range". The smallest and largest possible flow range end values are shown in the following
table.
Note
The flow range end value is fixed for custody transfer devices.
