DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Setting Up the Input Signal (INPUT) It is very important to read the following information, before proceeding to program the meter: The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment to display 0-100 gallons, which corresponds to the 4-20 mA input.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Available Unit Classes and Units The meter has six available preprogrammed unit classes, volume , height , temperature , pressure , weight , and rate . Each unit class has the following available units to choose from: Pressure Units (PRESSURE) Rate Time Bases (TIME) Volume Units (VOLUME)
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Setting Custom Units (CUSTOM) When the desired unit class or unit of measure within a class is not available, a custom unit may be pro- grammed. Select the CUSTOM menu (or CUSTOM unit within a unit class) in order to enter a custom unit name.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Scaling the 4-20 mA Input The 4-20 mA input can be scaled to the appropriate values for a given application. The 4-mA input (input 1) should have a corresponding display value (display 1) which represents the low end of the process value range being measured by the transmitter.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Changing What is Displayed (TOP and BOTTOM) The two display lines ( Top and Bottom ) can be programmed to display different values. Use the Top and Bottom menus to make these changes. Additional menus are available if the meter is in dual-scale mode to allow the second PV to be displayed on either the top or bottom line.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Programming the Bargraph The LI23/4 comes equipped with a bargraph display for applications where a visual representation of the process variable’s percentage of full scale is desirable. This feature can be enabled or disabled using the Bargraph menu ( BARGRAPH ).
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Open Collector Outputs (OPEN COLLECTR) The meter is equipped with two NPN open collector outputs that may be set up for pulse outputs, alarms, timed pulses, or disabled. Pulse outputs can be set to transmit the PV value (PV1 or PV2 if meter is in dual-scale mode). Output 2 may be used to generate a quadrature output based on the other open collector output.
Page 28
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Pulse (PULSE) Pulse outputs may be assigned to output the PV at a programmable factor. The factor determines the number of pulses per second which should be generated per unit of measure. For example, if the meter display shows 100 gallons and the factor is set to 2, the number of pulses generated per second would be 200.
Page 29
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Alarm (ALARM) Alarm outputs may be assigned to the PV or the digital input. When assigned to the PV, the alarm may be set as either a high alarm or a low alarm. Alarm actions ( AUTO , AUTO.MAN , LATCH , L‐CLEAR ) determine how and when the alarm should be reset.
Page 30
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Timer (TIMER) The timer output may be set to generate the timed pulse only once ( ONESHOT ) or continuously ( CONT ). The timer output produces a constant width pulse at a constant frequency, if set as continuous timer. Program the Off Delay ( OFF.DLAY ) from 1 second to 99 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Solid State Relay Outputs (RELAY) The meter is optionally equipped with two solid state relays that may be set up for alarms, timer, or pump control. Alternatively, they may be disabled. Alarms are available based on the PV value or the digital input. The alarm status will show on the display even if the output is not wired.

DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Alarm (ALARM) Alarm outputs may be assigned to the PV or the digital input. When assigned to the PV, the alarm may be set as either a high alarm or a low alarm. Alarm actions ( AUTO , AUTO.MAN , LATCH , L‐CLEAR ) determine how and when the alarm should be reset.

DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Pump Control (PUMPCTRL) The pump control output is used in situations where the relays are used to control pumps. There are two options available for controlling pumps: on-off ( ON‐OFF ) and pump alternation ( ALTERN ). ON‐OFF will turn the relay on at a programmed on point and off at a programmed off point.
Page 34
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Pump Alternation (ALTERN) Pump alternation sets the two relays to alternate every time the first on point ( ON 1 ) is reached. The active relay will turn off once the first off point ( OFF 1 ) is reached. If the PV reaches the second on point ( ON 2 ), the other relay will also turn on.

DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Timer (TIMER) The timer output may be set to generate the timed pulse only once ( ONESHOT ) or continuously ( CONT ). The timer output produces a constant width pulse at a constant frequency, if set as continuous timer. Program the Off Delay ( OFF.DLAY ) from 1 second to 99 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual 4-20 mA Output (4‐20 mA) The 4-20 mA menu is used to scale the 4-20 mA output based on display values. This menu is not present on models without a 4-20 mA output option. The 4-20 mA analog output (if equipped) can be scaled to provide a 4-20 mA signal for the PV display range or to simply retransmit the 4-20 mA input.

DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Advanced Scaling and Calibration (SCALE.CAL) This menu offers options to scale or calibrate the meter. Scaling the Input (SCALE) The scale menu in the Advanced menu is the same as the scale menu in the Input menu. See Setting Up the Input Signal ( INPUT ) on page 21 for details about scaling the meter.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Low-Flow Cutoff (CUTOFF) The low-flow cutoff feature allows the meter to be programmed so that the often-unsteady output from a differential pressure transmitter at low flow rates always displays zero on the meter. The cutoff value may be programmed from 0 to 999999.9.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Programmable Function Keys User Menu (USER) The User menu allows the user to assign the front panel function keys F1, F2, and F3, and the digital in- put (a digital input located on the signal input connector) to access some of the menus or to activate cer- tain functions immediately (e.g.
DataLoop™ LI24 Loop-Powered Process Meter Instruction Manual Enabling the Function Key Hint Feature (HINT) Enabling the function key hint feature will cause a hint message to be displayed when pressing the F1, F2, or F3 function keys.
