Core Steps of the Commissioning Wizard
The commissioning wizard uses a series of interactive interfaces to ensure instrument parameters are correctly configured. The following are the key steps:
- Start the wizard: After the instrument is powered on, start the wizard via the local display or commissioning software.
- Select language: Choose the interface language according to the operator's preference.
- Set units: Configure measurement units such as mass flow, volume flow, and density.
- Configure outputs: Set current output, pulse output, or digital communication parameters.
- Complete commissioning: Save the settings and exit the wizard; the instrument enters measurement mode.

Key Points for Commissioning Parameter Settings
During commissioning, pay special attention to the following parameters to ensure measurement accuracy:
- Measurement units: Select according to process requirements, such as kg/h, t/h, etc.
- Measuring range: Set an appropriate measurement range to avoid overload or loss of accuracy.
- Damping time: Adjust the output response speed to balance stability and real-time performance.
- Zero calibration: Perform under full-pipe and no-flow conditions to ensure accurate zero point.

Commissioning Precautions and Common Issues
During commissioning, pay attention to the following to avoid common errors:
- Ensure the pipe is full of liquid and free of bubbles; otherwise, measurement will be affected.
- Check whether the wiring is correct, especially the power and signal lines.
- Avoid commissioning in environments with strong electromagnetic interference.
- If an alarm occurs, refer to the manual to troubleshoot.
Common issues include zero drift and abnormal output, which can usually be resolved by recalibration or checking parameters.
