50 Configurable Flowmeter Module Features and Operational Modes
Using the Totalizer
Mode Filler Function
The Totalizer Mode Filler function performs the basic operations of a fill
application, including the following basic steps:
 Set a target fill volume
 Start filling
 Stop filling when the target volume is reached
Within the basic operations mentioned above, the Filler function provides
multiple features that can be configured to adjust the fill application for
specific circumstances. Those features are described later in this chapter.
The filler function requires a ladder program transition to start the fill cycle.
Similar to the Prover function, the totalizer is active all the time, but the Filler
function must be first enabled, and started to activate the Fill Total.
This figure shows a 1756-CFM module in a brewery flow monitoring
application while operating in the totalizer mode filler function. The
application shown requires additional ladder logic.
