2.2

UFP-Program

The operating system is DOS 6.22 for its proven reliability using real time data processing.

The UFP-Program is controlled by initialisation data files and on-line configurable data files.

2.2.1

Initialisation data files

These files can be accessed by a DOS-editor when the UFP-Program is not running.

The Initialisation data files are divided into 3 groups:

UFS files

: Calibration data regarding the Ultrasonic Flow Sensor (primary)

UFP files

: Calibration and configuration data on the hardware set up within the UFP (cards etc)

DAT files

: Client configuration data regarding the set up of communication and signal IO.

2.2.2

On-line configurable data files

These files are binary and only accessible when the UFP-program is on-line.

API.bin

: API settings on standard volume correction

DENSITOx.bin : 4 files for calibration data on densitometer cells Solartron 1 & 2, Sarasota 1 & 2

OVERRIDE.bin : Override value settings

2.2.3

Functionality

The functionality can be divided into primary and secondary functions

Primary functions:
•

Monitor data- and system integrity

•

Data acquisition: data of five converters and optional data such as temperatures, pressures,

densities, control bits, etc.

•

Check the measured data from the five converters and handle errors, if necessary.

•

Calculate the proces volumetric flow in the primary head from the measured data.

•

Calculate the standard volumetric flow (e.g. 15 °C, 1.01325 bar), if installed. Standard temperature

can be set in the range 0-30°C.

•

Totalise proces and standard flow as measured volumes

•

Flow weighted averages on batching (temperature, pressure, density etc).

•

Resetable and non resetable totalisers

•

Output of calculated data and errors through: frequency output, analog outputs, digital outputs and

Modbus communication.

•

Possibility to override the input values (Temperatures, Pressures, Densities etc on line). Override

is signalled as an alarm.

•

Printing of tickets for batch functions such as Off Loading and Continuous Pipeline Measurement

Secondary functions:
•

Statistics

•

Back-up history such as totalisers, averages and alarms.

•

Various screen functions for real-time monitoring.
