Fig. 1: Typical application for the F013-P. Configuration of the unit The F013-P has been designed to be implemented in many types of applications. For that reason, a SETUP-level is available to configure your F013-P according to your specific requirements.
Take careful notice of the " Safety rules, instructions and precautionary measures " in the front of this manual. This chapter describes the daily use of the F013-P. This instruction is meant for users / operators. 2.2. CONTROL PANEL The following keys are available: Fig.
SETUP-settings. The signal generated by the connected flowmeter is measured by the F013-P in the background, whichever screen refresh rate setting is chosen. After pressing a key, the display will be updated very quickly during a 30 second period, after which it will slow-down again.

Page 10 Matrix structure SETUP-level: SCROLLING THROUGH SETUP-LEVEL Selection of function-group and function: SETUP is divided into several function groups and functions. Each function has a unique number, which is displayed below the word "SETUP" at the bottom of the display. The number is a combination of two figures. The first figure indicates the function-group and the second figure the sub-function.

Page 13 3.2.3. EXPLANATION OF SETUP-FUNCTIONS 1 - TOTAL SETUP - 11 determines the measurement unit for total and accumulated MEASUREMENT UNIT total. The following units can be selected: L - m3 - kg - lb. - GAL - USGAL - bbl - _ (no unit). Alteration of the measurement unit will have consequences for operator and SETUP-level values.
Page 14 2 - FLOWRATE The settings for total and flowrate are entirely separate. In this way, different units of measurement can be used for each e.g. cubic meters for total and liters for flowrate. The display update time for flowrate is one second or more. Note: these settings also influence the alarm output functions.
If a LED backlight has been supplied, the color can be selected. BACKLIGHT Following selections are available: (OPTION) OFF - GREEN - AMBER In case the F013-P generates a flowrate alarm, the backlight can be set to BACKLIGHT ALARM change to red. Following selections are available: (OPTION) OFF: during flowrate alarm the color is according to setting 43 during flowrate alarm the color is red.
When used with the internal battery option, the user can expect reliable measurement over a long period of time. The F013-P has several smart power management functions to extend the battery life time significantly. Two of these functions can be set:...
For support and maintenance it is important to have information about the TYPE OF MODEL characteristics of the F013-P. Your supplier will ask for this information in the case of a serious breakdown or to assess the suitability of your model for upgrade considerations.
Operating Manual before carrying out its instructions. The F013-P may only be operated by personnel who are authorized and trained by the operator of the facility. All instructions in this manual are to be observed.
• This unit must be installed in accordance with the EMC guidelines (Electro Magnetic Compatibility). • Do ground the aluminum casing properly as indicated, if the F013-P has been supplied with the 115-230V AC power-supply type PM. The green / yellow wire between the back-casing and removable terminal-block may never be removed.
The input signal type has to be selected with the correct SETUP-function (read par. 3.2.3.) The F013-P is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a coil output signal. Two sensitivity levels can be selected with the SETUP-function: COIL LO: sensitivity from about 90mVp-p.

Page 23 Pulse-signal NPN / NPN-LP: The F013-P is suitable for use with flowmeters which have a NPN output signal. For reliable pulse detection, the pulse amplitude has to go below 1.2V. Signal setting NPN-LP employs a low-pass signal noise filter, which limits the maximum input frequency - read par. 3.2.3.

Common ground unit NAMUR-signal: The F013-P is suitable for flowmeters with an Namur signal. The standard F013-P is not able to power the Namur sensor, as an external power supply for the sensor is required. However, a 8.2V sensor supply voltage (terminal 6) can be provided with type PD.
For Intrinsically Safe applications: read chapter 5.
