Configuring Inputs
LD Optimization is a special compensation that is specifically for hydrocarbon liquids. LD
Optimization should not be used with any other process fluids. LD Optimization is available only with
certain large sensor sizes. If your sensor can benefit from LD Optimization, the enable/disable option
will appear in ProLink II or on the display.
7.3.4 Sensor information
Sensor information includes parameters that serve as references without affecting calibration
parameters, totalizers, or outputs. These parameters are informational and not required.
Sensor information parameters are listed and defined in Table 7-13.
7.3.5 Discrete inputs
Note: Be sure to distinguish these discrete input parameters from the discrete input parameters
described in Section 7.5, which are used to describe the discrete input signal.
The discrete input parameters allow you to specify a transmitter action that will occur when:
• An ON signal is received from a discrete input (see Section 7.5 for information on configuring
the discrete input signal)
• A discrete event occurs (see Chapter 10 for information on configuring discrete events)
You can assign one or more actions to a single discrete input or discrete event. All assigned actions
will be performed. Actions and assignments for discrete inputs and discrete events are listed and
defined in Table 7-14.
Note: If you are configuring a Model 3300 or Model 3350 controller, refer to Section 7.4 to assign an
action to a discrete input.
Note: To assign a batch control function to a discrete input or a discrete event, see Chapter 11. To
assign a print function to a discrete input or discrete event, see Chapter 15.
CAUTION
If you send the transmitter to a calibration facility to perform a water
calibration, either during startup or any time thereafter, LD Optimization
must be disabled. When you have completed the calibration, re-enable LD
Optimization.
