7 Setup with PACTware
WEIGHTRAC 31 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - four-wire
42374-EN-131119
Carry out a setup in the sequence described in the following.
Check if the correct language is already set for the software. If not,
you can change the language in the menu item "Extras/Options".
In this menu you can assign an unambiguous name to the sensor or
the measurement loop.
After starting PACTware, you can choose if you want to carry out the
extended adjustment with the DTM (Device Type Manager) or work
with the setup assistant.
In this menu item you can first of all adjust the WEIGHTRAC 31 to the
integrated isotope in the source container.
For this purpose, check which isotope is integrated in the source
container. You can find this information on the type label of the source
container.
Through this selection, the sensitivity of the sensor is adapted
perfectly to the isotope. The normal reduction of the emitter activity is
hence considered through the radioactive decay.
The WEIGHTRAC 31 requires this information of the automatic decay
compensation. This ensures an interference-free measurement over
the complete life time of the gamma emitter - an annual recalibration
is not necessary.
Setup
Start the setup assistant by clicking the respective button.
Work as far as possible according to the sequence of the setup as-
sistant.
This menu item enables adaptation of the sensor to the requested ap-
plication. You can choose between the following applications: "Mass
flow (belt/spiral)" or "Mass flow summation slave".
