Parameter Settings

After installing and connecting the FlowShark Pulse transmitter and sensors (refer to
Chapter 6, Installation), hooking up the power supply, and establishing initial
communication with the transmitter, set the configuration parameters for the system.
Standard applications typically require the user to input or modify only a few basic
settings:

z

Geometry and dimensions of the measurement location

z

Sensors in use and positioning

z

Display units

z

Span and function of analog and digital outputs

A standard application reflects the following conditions and equipment:

z

Partially-filled, standard pipe

z

Combi sensor installed at the bottom of the pipe for measuring flow depth and
velocity (ignoring values above or below the minimum and maximum
detectable depth levels)

z

Presence of silt that requires a vertical sensor offset

z

1x mA output for flow rate and 1x impulse output (e.g., to a sampler)

For projects involving advanced configuration, complex hydraulic conditions, unique
pipe shapes, limited technical staff, or specific setup procedures and error protocols,
contact ADS for assistance in configuring the FlowShark Pulse.
