This manual describes the unit with a (0)4-20mA input from the flowmeter. Other versions are available to process pulse signals. One flowmeter with a (0)4-20mA signal output can be connected to the F112-A. To power the sensor, several options are available. - Page 7 Page 7 Configuration of the unit The F112-A is designed for use in many types of applications. For that reason, a setup menu is available to program the F112-A according to your specific requirements. The setup includes several important features, such as span, engineering units, signal selection, power management (to extend battery life-time), etc.
