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.
