4 Transducer Block
OVERVIEW Section 4 contains information on the Model 8800C Vortex Flowmeter
transducer block. Descriptions of all transducer block parameters,
errors, and diagnostics are listed. Also, the modes, alarm detection,
status handling, application information, and troubleshooting are
discussed.

Configuration Guide
Proper configuration of the Model 8800C Vortex Flowmeter is essential
for accurate performance. The following is a quick configuration guide
for those already familiar with vortex meters, especially the
Model 8800C.
For most parameters configured in the Model 8800C, the transmitter
must perform extensive calculations to derive internal parameters used
to accurately measure flow. It is recommended that each parameter in
the Transducer Block be configured and sent to the transmitter
individually. If too many parameter changes are sent to the transmitter
at one time, the transmitter will return an error. The parameters not
accepted will have to be resent.
