Diagnostic Interface – Multifunctional Programming Unit for Turbine Measurement Systems for Flow Measurement

Ease of Use, Real-Time Monitoring & Precise Calibration in One System

The new Diagnostic Interface, developed by DDM, is a versatile and powerful tool designed for the configuration, calibration, and diagnostics of VCA/VCA-T series flow computers and connected VCT turbines.

This innovative system offers a comprehensive solution for turbine measurement technology, combining a user-friendly interface with robust functionality. It allows users to easily retrieve device information, including firmware versions, serial numbers, and calibration data, manage media characteristic curves, view real-time data, and customize device settings.

Clear Overview and Simple Parameterization

In addition to displaying firmware information for VCA/VCA-T flow computers, the interface shows serial numbers and manufacturing data for the devices. Key configuration settings, such as update rate, cutoff value, and output voltage range for flow and temperature signals, can be easily adjusted. The ability to store and manage up to ten media characteristic curves simplifies application across various uses. Media characteristics can be created, edited, and imported/exported as CSV files. A graphical interface with interactive editing options supports precise curve adjustments.

Key Feature: Flexible Device Configuration

The analog adjustment option allows for precise output signal tuning using a calibrated voltmeter. Configurations can be saved and directly transferred to the device, ensuring smooth system operation.

Integrated Live Mode for Enhanced Usability

Live Mode provides real-time display of critical measurement data, including current flow rate in liters per minute, corrected media temperature, and viscosity. It also enables direct access to vital turbine information, such as device details, measurement properties, and calibration characteristics.

Comprehensive Calibration Options for Both Beginners and Experts

The diagnostic interface offers extensive calibration capabilities. A guided calibration setup is available for less experienced users, providing step-by-step instructions. For advanced users, Expert Mode allows direct configuration of all calibration parameters in a single screen. The software also enables the input of calibration data for various viscosities and the creation of a viscosity-independent calibration curve by precisely adjusting and matching the relevant data points.

Simplified Operation and Maintenance of Turbine Measurement Systems

The DDM diagnostic interface significantly simplifies the operation and maintenance of turbine measurement systems for flow measurement. Combining user-friendliness, real-time monitoring, and precise calibration, it provides a flexible and reliable solution for both beginners and experts.
