- Page 2 Introduction: µ This startup guide is to assist in the startup of the FLO series flow computer. Through this guide will be references to status codes that are displayed in different annunciator positions on the unit’s display. Since assignments can now be made to any of the eight annunciators, there is no specific annunciator for a specific code.

Page 7: Battery Installation
Battery Installation 1. To extend the life of the battery pack, fully charge the battery prior to installation. A system using solar panels may not fully charge the battery. Also a fast charge, which the solar panel can’t provide, improves the life of the battery. (See tip below) 2. -

Page 12: Remote Communications
Remote Communications The following discussion deals primarily with communications between µ FLO and Host (typically WinCCU). µ To communicate with the Host, the FLO has a remote communications port that can function as RS232, RS485 or RS422. Depending on the customer’s order, most units are shipped with an appropriate cable between the 15-pin connector (J3) and the communication’s device such as a radio. -
Page 13: Communications Troubleshooting
Communications Troubleshooting A new radio or modem system that doesn’t communicate is difficult to troubleshoot because proper operation has never been proven, and all the initial hardware and software settings are suspect. More than one problem can be present, causing component replacement to be an inadequate trouble shooting technique. - Page 14 Wiring µ Specific wiring drawings are sent with each FLO, based on the options ordered. Most wiring diagrams, including communications are available on the web at http://www.abb.com/totalflow. Select “Continuing Customer Service Support”, then select “Wiring Instructions”.

Page 15: Standard Displays
Standard Displays Items that appear on the device’s display are programmable by the user, however based on the measurement application; units will be shipped with some default display items. The following table is a typical set of default displays for an AGA-3 application. Engineering units may vary from those shown if device supports the “Selectable Units”... - Page 16 Visual Alarm & Status Codes µ After the FLO completes recording Log Period flow and operational records, the LCD will show any alarm conditions that have occurred. Also, the date, hour and type of alarm conditions are stored in the µ...
