CALIBRATION
OTEE: N If your Intelligent Frequency Converter was purchased with a B220-954 turbine meter, the two components ship
from the factory calibrated as a set If the Intelligent Frequency Converter is a replacement, the turbine’s K factor has
changed, or the converter is being used with some other pulse-generating device, programming will be necessary
Requirements:
• B220-954 Intelligent Converter Programming Kit (B220-954)
• IBM Compatible PC running Windows 95 and newer
• DC Power Supply
After installing the programming software and attaching the programming cable to the Intelligent Frequency Converter
through an available Com Port on your PC, you are now ready to power up your Intelligent Frequency Converter and continue
with the calibration procedure Using a DC power supply, apply 10…26V DC to the Intelligent Frequency Converter Run the
programming utility software shown in Figure 6
