Measuring Flow


Main Menu

Manual function allows a correction of the measured result, when the sensor is installed either above or below the tank’s cover.

This indication should be added to the measured result.

Manual Function


The correction value should be entered only in mm. The value may be any figure between: -200mm to

+200mm. Manual function will correct the display result and

current output. It has no influence on the value of data transferred via digital connection.

Note: Manual correction should be entered after the set up of the device.

Main MenuManual Function


Defining interfering

signals (Scan Distance process)

“Static interference” is a well

known phenomenon in ultrasound

technology.

Use Scan Distance function to

“map” your tank from these

obstacles and to memorize the

interfering signals.

Note: Measurement results appears as Level

Main MenuScan Distance


SmartScan can locate and store up to 8 obstructions.

After storing 8 interference signals the memory acts as FIFO (first in first out), the eight signal will erase the first signal and so on.

Note:Each obstruction will extend calculation time. Defining interfering signals is

done while the tank is empty.

Main MenuScan Distance


Main Menu – SmartScan 25

You can set up to five relay switches for single‑sensor versions of SmartScan.

Each relay enables you to define open and close values for the switch, enabling its use for functions such as triggering an alarm.

Note: The values for the relays should be set up as Level

mode.

Relays



The relay values function as follows:

Open value: (Default = 0) The relay opens if the level measured in the tank is higher than the entered open value.

Close value: (Default = 0) The relay closes if the level measured in the tank is lower than the entered close value.

Note:The close value must be lower

than the open value for each relay.

Relays



Relay setup by distance, volume, flow and totalization value (and not with level values only).

Assign an alarm relay for reporting on errors. Assign a relay as totalization pulse output to send a pulse to a

sample activator. The duration of this momentary closure is adjustable to meet different batch sample activators. Each pulse represent a totalization of any value between 1 to

100,000M^3 or GPM The width of the pulse can be any value between 20ms to

2000ms

Relay features



You can set the relays to five different configuration modes: Level, Distance and Flow (where applicable), Volume and Totalization.

The last two modes should be configured only after Volume/Totalization options were enabled in the Additional Menu).

Relays Configuration


Main Menu – SmartScan 50Relays Setup Options

Following are the relays setup options. Relay values can be viewed in various indication modes according to the selected relay mode. For example, if the selected relay mode is FLOW, then relay values can be viewed in either, Flow, Distance or Level.

You can configure relay 4 to report errors or to remain in normal set-up mode.

Relay 4 – Error Report Configuration



Once relay 4 is configured to report

error, the following messages will be shown in these cases: F.F.F.F” - Whenever the level

reaches up to 10cm inside dead zone or overflow occurred, “F.F.F.F” will appear on the MonoScan’s display.

“E.E.E.E” - Whenever the echo is not received by the transducer because of empty tank or when the measured distance is greater than permitted, “E.E.E.E” will appear on the MonoScan’s display.

Relay 4 – Error Report Configuration



You can choose to set relay number five (5) for flow totalization pulse indication or to remain in normal set-up mode.

Once relay 5 is set for this option, the relay will generate a pulse per Xm^3 or Gallons of flow depend on the value that you have selected from the following list of optional values (you can define the X value):1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000.

Relay 5 – Totalization Pulse Indication



The electrical pulse will be generated whenever the relay total flow value will be larger than the value selected from the list.

The pulse width varies between 20 to 2000 ms with a resolution of 10 ms.

Relay 5 – Totalization Pulse Indication


Main Menu

SmartScan enables you to set height, volume or flow values to be used as 20 mA and 4 mA marks.

These values can be used for remote monitoring of tank level, volume or flow using an analog meter

4-20mA


You can configure 4mA and 20mA parameters to volume values.

The value of volume should be entered in two separated screens for high and low numbers.

Five (5) - enables digits for ‘low’ numbers. Four (4) - enables digits for ‘high’ numbers. for a volume of up to 99,999 configure ‘low’ numbers only and

leave ‘high’ numbers set to zero. For volume above 99,999 (six digits required), the low five

digits should be configured in the ‘low’ screen, and high numbers (starting the sixth digit) should be entered in the ‘high’ screen.

Manually Inserting Strapping Table Values

Additional Menu

The Pr 1 function enables you

to manually create a strapping

table of distance points for either volume calculations

or custom flume

measurements.


Custom Tank

Measuring Volume

Measuring volume in tanks can bedone in two ways: manual (Pr. 1) semi-automatic. (Pr. 2)In either way two parameters should be entered/programmed accordingly: oneparameter to represent level (distance) and the other to represent volume.For accurate results you may enter upto 24 linear points. If you do not need all 24 points, you may exit at any stage. However, we recommend entering no less than 8 linear points.


Manual Mode

Measuring Volume

By pressing <NEXT> or <BACK> you can move from one point to another.

Press <ENT> to insert distance and volume value corresponding to the entered distance.

Note:Volume should be entered in two steps: first the number before the decimal point, and then the number after the decimal point.


Semi-automatic mode

Measuring Volume

This function is based on a “theoretical” calculation, and assumes that you know the corresponding volume for each (critical) distance point.


Inserting a Coefficient for Readings

The Pr 3 function enables you to enter a coefficient value, K, which can be used for three different options:

Measurement in kilograms Alternative measurement

unit Default volume calculation

For each option, the entered K value is used by SmartScan in the following formula:

X = K (Y) Y- calculated measurement

Additional Menu


Erasing Strapping Table Values

The Pr 4 function erases all values entered in the strapping table using functions Pr 1 or Pr 2.

Additional Menu


Defining 22mA/3.7mA Signal Error

Pr. 6 enables you to define whether signal error indications would be active when the current output reaches 22mA or 3.7mA.

F.F.F.F” - Whenever the level reaches up to 10cm inside dead zone or overflow occurred, “F.F.F.F” will appear on the MonoScan’s display.

“E.E.E.E” - Whenever the echo is not received by the transducer because of empty tank or when the measured distance is greater than permitted, “E.E.E.E” will appear on the MonoScan’s display.

Additional Menu

You can enter the appropriate factor for each type of gas listed on the ‘Gas Factor Table (Appen.B in the User’s manual).

Pr.8 Blocking distance shift – smart 25

“Shift on blocking distance” function is recommended in the following circumstances: When the sensor is installed via a pipe, above the tank’s cover.

(In such cases the device defines the pipe’s end as an echo) Once the sensor’s auto-oscillation time is increasing.

(In such cases it causes an inaccurate display of “FFFF”) When there are several interferences signals in the first

measured meters. (In such cases it is recommended to perform initially “shift on” followed by “scan distance”)

PR7 – SmartScan 50 PR3 - SmartLite

“Shift blocking distance” permitted values:

When the sensor installed via pipe: SBD = h+10cm where: h – Distance from the sensor surface to pipe edge.

Troubleshooting

Whenever an illegal value is entered, an error code will be displayed.

Wait till the marker on the bar graph changes from 0 to 100%.

Re-enter the desired values. The default is “000000”.
