Modes of Operation

You configure the CFM module for these modes of operation:

Use this mode

To

Indicators/

Alarms

Prover

Total

reset

Scaler

values

Rollover

value

Totalizer

• accurately measure counts using a flowmeter

or positive displacement meter

• trigger outputs directly from the CFM module

Ċ trigger on total, frequency, acceleration

• monitor flow total, rate, and rate of change

independent ofyour PLC processor scan times

• store counts based on external input

• scale the frequency and count to

engineering units

• interface to a prover

overrange

overflow

overspeed

acceleration

Nonresettable Totalizer

operate in the Totalizer mode with the count

reset function disabled to prevent loss of

accumulated value

overrange

overflow

overspeed

acceleration

HighĆresolution Frequency

1

(channels 0&1 or channels 2&3)

• monitor the frequency of an input with high

accuracy (e.g. shaft)

• monitor the rate ofspeed change

• operate outputs based on speed or

rate ofchange

• scale the frequency to engineering units

overspeed

overrange

acceleration

Direction Sensor

1

(channels 0&1 or channels 2&3)

• monitor the direction ofshaft rotation

• monitor rate ofchange and frequency

• trigger outputs based on direction, frequency,

rate ofchange

• scale the frequency and count to

engineering units

overspeed

acceleration

overrange

1

This mode uses two channels for one input (your input device is connected to F0 or F2, while F1 or F3 is unused).

In this mode

of operation

You can assign outputs that are programmable to trigger

Totalizer

on total, rate, rate change (acceleration), total overflow or

prover status

Nonresettable Totalizer on total, rate, rate change (acceleration), total overflow or

prover status

HighĆresolution
Frequency

on frequency or frequency rate of change (acceleration)

Direction Sensor

on either CLOCKWISE or COUNTERĆCLOCKWISE direction,

acceleration or frequency (outputs are triggered ON only)

If you want to configure the module

You

through I/O Configuration software (if you

are using a PLCĆ5 family processor

1

)

enter the appropriate information on the

CFM module edit screens.

by editing bits at the address ofthe

BTW instruction

edit the data file addresses in the BTW

instruction to match your particular

application. Use the word assignments

on page 14 to edit the bits that apply to

your application(s).

See PLCĆ5 Programming Software I/O Configuration Manual, publication 6200Ć6.4.12, for

supported processors.
