3. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Route 12-30 volt DC power

and earth ground through one of the FUSION conduit

connections and secure at the 12-30 VDC In, Power Gnd and
Earth Gnd terminals. Ensure that electrical codes applicable to

the installation area are followed. An installation drawing
covering Hazardous Area installations is located in the back of

this manual. (The FUSION meter contains several output
options that will be covered in detail in subsequent sections of

this manual.)

4. APPLY POWER After power is applied to the FUSION flow

meter, the display will illuminate and show the software

version that is running inside of the flow meter as Ux.xx. The
flow meter will then conduct self-diagnostic, measurement
and buffering operations during an Auto Adjust countdown

that is shown on the display. These operations are also
conducted each time a user exits from the keypad

configuration menu.

5. OPERATION If the flow meter is started empty, the display

will indicate “EMPTY PIPE” until the flow meter fills with liquid.

If the flow meter is filled with liquid, the flow meter will
display either DOPPLER or TRANSIT (indicating the mode of

operation that is supplying the flow readings to the display
and outputs).
