Smart Meter Verification has an output mode called Continuous Measurement that allows the
transmitter to keep measuring while the test is in progress. If you choose to run the test in
Last Measured Value or Fault modes instead, the transmitter outputs will be held constant for
the two minute duration of the test. If control loops depend on transmitter outputs, take
appropriate action.
Avoid process instability during the test. If conditions are too unstable, the Smart Meter
Verification test will abort. To maximize process stability:
• Maintain a constant fluid pressure and temperature.
• Avoid changes to fluid composition, e.g., two-phase flow or settling.
• Maintain a constant flow rate.
Tips
• The Smart Meter Verification test runs best when flow is stopped through the sensor.
• Smart Meter Verification is not affected by any configured transmitter parameters for flow,
density, or temperature.

Measr
During the test, all outputs will continue to report their assigned process var-
iable. The test will run for approximately 90 seconds.
Fault During the test, all outputs will report the last measured value of their as-
signed process variable. The test will run for approximately 140 seconds.
