D08 Hysteresis

Definition

Set the hysteresis percentage for clearing flow upper and lower limit alarms. This ensures the alarm is only cleared when the flow stabilizes back within the set range. The percentage is defined relative to the span between the upper and lower limits. Default: 03 (3%).

(D05 , D06 , D07 , and D08 work together to enable the flow range over-limit alarm function.)

chevron-rightFlow Range Limit Alarm Example (Click to Expand)hashtag
D06 Upper Limit: 30 LPM
D07 Lower Limit: 10 LPM
D08 Hysteresis: 3% (default)

Calculations:
Range: 30 − 10 = 20 LPM
Hysteresis: 20 × 3% = 0.6 LPM

Alarm Behavior:
When flow exceeds the upper limit (30 LPM), the alarm is triggered.
The alarm will clear only when the flow drops below 29.4 LPM (30 − 0.6).
When flow falls below the lower limit (10 LPM), the alarm is triggered.
The alarm will clear only when the flow rises above 10.6 LPM (10 + 0.6).

This parameter must be a positive value.

When the flow range alarm is enabled and the flow reaches the alarm condition, Alarm B is triggered. Alarm bits (Bit0, Bit1) display 1 to indicate the alarm has been activated.

The system responds according to the alarm mode set in D05:

  • On: The receiving device receives the alarm signal, and the flow meter screen displays a red backlight warning.

  • Do Not Disturb (DND): The receiving device still receives the alarm signal, but the screen does not display the red backlight.
