Flowmeter Startup
3.1 Overview
This chapter describes the procedures you should perform the first time you start the flowmeter. You
do not need to use these procedures every time you cycle power to the flowmeter.
The following procedures are discussed:
Applying power to the flowmeter (see Section 3.2)
Performing a loop test on the transmitter outputs (see Section 3.3)
Trimming the mA output (see Section 3.4)
Zeroing the flowmeter (see Section 3.5)
Note: All ProLink II procedures provided in this chapter assume that your computer is already
connected to the transmitter and you have established communication. All ProLink II procedures also
assume that you are complying with all applicable safety requirements. See Chapter 2 for more
information.
3.2 Applying power
Before you apply power to the flowmeter, close and tighten all housing covers.
Turn on the electrical power at the power supply. The flowmeter will automatically perform
diagnostic routines. When the flowmeter has completed its power-up sequence, the status LED will
turn green if conditions are normal. If the status LED exhibits different behavior, an alarm condition is
present (see Section 5.4) or configuration of the filling and dosing application is not complete.
