3. Instrument Inspection
Instruments are inspected before shipping and sent out in perfect condition.
Should damage to a device be visible, we recommend a thorough inspection of the
delivery packaging. In case of damage, please inform your parcel service /
forwarding agent immediately, since they are responsible for damages during
transit.
Scope of delivery:
The standard delivery includes:
 Electromagnetic Flowmeter model: MIM
 Operating Instructions
4. Regulation Use
The MIM flowmeter has been specially developed for the measurement, display
and transmission of both, flow rates and temperature of conductive liquids. The
instrument has a graphic TFT display, rotatable in 90 ° steps and can display flow
rate, temperature, daily volume counter (resettable) and total volume counter in the
units of measurement selected by the operator. A clear menu guides the user
through the parameterization of the device, which largely eliminates the need to
look into the operating instructions.
Any use of the magnetic flowmeter, model: MIM, which exceeds the manufacturer’s
specification, may invalidate its warranty. Therefore, any resulting damage is not
the responsibility of the manufacturer. The user assumes all risk for such usage.
5. Environment
The MIM device with stainless steel housing and stainless steel electrodes is
weatherproof and conforms to protection class IP67. The meter is designed for
harsh indoor or outdoor environments and complies with Directive 2014/30/EU
(Electromagnetic Compatibility).
MIM K21/0620 page 5

MIM-
6. Operating principle
6.1 General
The new KOBOLD MIM Flowmeter is designed to measure and monitor small and
medium flows of conductive fluids in piping.
The device works on the magnetic-inductive measuring principle. According to
Faraday's law of induction, a voltage is induced in a conductor moving in a
magnetic field. The electrically conductive measuring medium corresponds to the
moving conductor in the process. The voltage induced by the measuring medium
is proportional to the flow rate and thus a measure of the volume throughput.
Prerequisite is a minimum electrical conductivity of the flowing medium. The
induced voltage is fed to a measuring amplifier via two electrodes, which are in
conductive contact with the medium. The volume flow is calculated via the defined
pipe diameter.
The measurement is independent of the medium and its physical properties such
as density, viscosity and temperature. The device can be configured via the
display. There are two outputs available, which can each be configured as alarm,
frequency, pulse, voltage, and current outputs.
The device also provides a dosing function. The dosing function can be activated
in measuring mode via the four buttons. The dosing function controls simple filling
tasks and also measures flow rate and partial amount.
6.2 Minimum electrical conductivity / Gas bubbles

For the correct function of the instrument, it is necessary that the flow channel is
always completely filled with medium. From a minimum electrical conductivity of 20
μS / cm, the MIM operates within the specified error limits. The conductivity of the
medium is constantly monitored by the device electronics. If the electronics detects
that the minimum conductivity has fallen below min. value, this is signaled by
displaying the error message 'Empty pipe' and the flow rate reading is set to '0'. Air
bubbles in the flowing medium or media with varying conductivity in the range of
the minimum conductivity can disturb the measuring function and reduce the
measuring accuracy of the MIM. Gases contained in the liquid are also measured
as a flow volume and lead to measurement errors. If necessary, install appropriate
vents in the flow of the unit.
6.3 Deposits
Minor deposits on the measuring tube generally do not affect the measuring
accuracy unless their conductivity deviates significantly from the liquid. For liquids
that have a tendency to deposit, periodically inspect the meter tube and, if
necessary, clean it.
6.4 Measuring electrodes

The MIM uses electrodes with galvanic tapping. They are in direct contact with the
medium. The standard electrodes are made of stainless steel 1.4404.

7. Mechanical connection
7.1 Check operating conditions

 flow rate
 max. operating pressure
 max. operating temperature
In general, MIM is subjected to the same loads as the piping into which it is
installed. The MIM should therefore be kept away from extreme loads, such as
pressure surges with strong, dynamic pipe movements, vibrations in the proximity
of centrifugal pumps, high temperature media, flooding etc.
7.2 Installation
 Remove all packing materials and transport retainers and ensure that no such
materials remain in the device.
 It can be installed in vertical, horizontal or rising pipes. Flow in direction of the
arrow.
 Avoid pressure and tensile load.
 Mechanically secure the inlet and outlet pipe at a distance of 50 mm from the
connections.
 Avoid valves or large reduction on the inlet section (this increases the
inaccuracy of measurements).
 Check the leak tightness of the connections.
While mounting MIM hold the flowmeter from spanner surface (not
from the housing) with the help of spanner.
Take into account the tightening torque.

8. Electrical Connection
8.1 General
Attention! Make sure that the voltage values of your system

correspond with the voltage values of the measuring unit.
 Make sure that the supply wires are de-energised.

 Connect the supply voltage and the output signal to the plug PIN’s as stated
below.
 We recommend the use of wires with cross sectional area of min. 0.25 mm².
Attention! The measuring electrodes are galvanically connected

with the reference potential of the supply voltage and the signal
output.
8.1.1 Grounding/ Earthing

If the device is installed in a continuously grounded / earthed metallic pipe, no
additional grounding / earthing of the housing is generally necessary. When
installing in a plastic pipe or any ungrounded pipe, the housing must be earthed at
the side threaded hole (M4) to ensure proper functionality of the MIM. A M4 screw
(thread length max. 8 mm), a matching washer, a ring cable lug and a toothed lock
washer are required for correct installation.
These mechanical parts are not part of the delivery.

8.2 Pin assignment

8.2.1 External connection with electrical connector M12x1 4-pin for
options C3T0 / Exx0 and Pxx0
8.2.2 Connection Exx0 / Pxx0 sensor
For the remote versions Pxx0 (PVC cable) and Exx0 (ETFE cable), the sensor and
transmitter are delivered ex works with the cable connected.
The on-site installation may require dismantling the cable and reconnecting it later.
Note:
In principle, the cable can be shortened by the user on the transmitter side and
connected to the transmitter again after appropriate assembly.
Attention!
A customer extension of the connection cable is not recommended because
of the necessary continuous shielding and leads to malfunction of the device.
The cable permanently connected to the sensor must not be disassembled.

9. Operation and menu structure
9.1 General
9.1.1 Operation of the optical buttons
Deactive optical button
Optical button active
An optical button is located at each corner of the TFT display. The operability of
the respective buttons is signaled by blue backlighting; therefore, non-backlit
buttons are disabled and cannot be operated. To operate the keys, the finger must
be placed on the key-dome and raised again. The orange background of the button
symbols is briefly displayed in blue as visual feedback for a detected key press.
To avoid accidental operation in measuring mode, the operator must hold down
the menu button for 3-5 seconds to activate the function. If the menu button is held
down for more than 3 seconds, the blue backlighting will begin to flash to alert the
user to release the button.
The operation of the optical buttons can also be done with gloves or other optically
reflective objects. Suitable types of gloves are: cotton and textile gloves, light
leather gloves, hygiene gloves made of latex and lightly rubberized work gloves.
Black-coated work gloves of all kinds are not suitable. Light dirt on the surface
usually does not interfere with the key function.
9.1.2 Function of the control buttons

The function of each control key can be recognized by the respective symbol
displayed in the corners of the TFT display.

9.2 Measuring mode

After applying the supply voltage, the device starts in measuring mode. In this
mode, the measured values of the respective measuring variables are continuously
recorded; the current instantaneous flow values, temperature values and the
volume counter readings are cyclically calculated and displayed according to the
type of display.
In addition to the main display, the states and configuration of the outputs are
shown in the display. If the corresponding output is configured as an alarm output,
the status is also displayed with a green or red background color. If the background
color is green, the set threshold value is exceeded; if it is red, the current value is
still under threshold.

9.2.1 Display area of the flow meters

The number of digits displayed on the volume counter display (partial and total
volumetric counters) is limited to max. 8 digits. The partial and total volumetric
meters therefore have a smaller font size than the flow and temperature display. If
the 8-digit display range of the meter is exceeded, this is indicated by the display
of 8 minus characters (--------). In this case, the meter reading can no longer be
read. The user now has the option of bringing the counter reading back into the
display area by changing the volume counter unit.

MIM-
9.3 Menu Mode
In menu mode, all device parameters can be set. The individual parameters are
arranged in menu groups by function. While the menu mode is activated, the signal
processing and the outputs are still active in the background. However, all display
parameters and outputs are updated after exiting the menu mode or in the
measuring mode.
Note: The menu mode will exit automatically after a certain time without using the
buttons, if the parameter “Menu Timeout” is set not equal to “0”.
9.3.1 Parameter setting

9.3.1.1 List Selection
Parameters with predefined selection values are defined by means of list selection.
The currently selected menu item is displayed in orange text. The selection can be
moved with the keys, the key is used to accept the selection.
To activate the menu mode, press the button for 3-5 seconds. The parameters
are divided into main groups and subgroups.
The buttons are used to select the main groups. In the main menu not all
menu groups can be shown on the display at the same time, the list of individual
menu items then scrolls up or down when the selection has reached the top or
bottom. To choose the selection, the key is pressed and the device jumps to
the corresponding submenu or parameter setting level. For selecting of predefined
parameter values and are used. After changing the value of the parameter

9.3.1.2 Numerical value input
When setting parameters with a numerical value, the assigned unit is always
displayed below the input field in square brackets in the input function. The
maximum size and the number of decimal places are fixed and cannot be changed.
After calling the input function, first the left, outer digit is displayed in orange. This
position can now be adjusted either with the keys in the value from 0 to 9.
By pressing the key , the entry point moves to the right and the next digit can
be changed. By pressing the key , the editing point can be moved to the left
again. If the editing point is on the far right, the set value is saved by pressing the
key again and switched to the higher-level menu function.
10. Device configuration
10.1 Sequence of device parameterization

The flowmeter MIM is pre-configured in factory. Changing the parameters
"Measuring range" and "Sensor constant" or "K factor" is therefore not permitted.
The adjustment of these parameters is only possible on the part of Kobold-factory.
In the event of subsequent changes to volume or throughput units, the dependent
parameters are converted and adjusted accordingly. However, the limit parameters
of the switching outputs must always be checked and adjusted manually when
adjusting volume or throughput units - these are not automatically converted.
An accidental change of the parameterization can be revised by the function "Reset

factory setting" in the menu Userservice / Reset.
10.2 Language
In this menu item the menu language can be changed in English, German,
French or Spanish (standard: English).

10.3 Display
10.3.1 Refresh
Parameter "Refresh" defines the time interval within which the measuring variables
are displayed. The "Refreshrate" can be increased in steps of 0.5 sec. to 10 sec.
An increase in the refresh rate time causes an increased "filtering" of the display
value.
10.3.2 Orientation
With the menu item "Orientation" the display can be rotated either clockwise or
counterclockwise in 90 ° increments. As the display rotates, both the display
contents and the function of the 4 control buttons are turned.
10.3.3 Layout
This parameter can be used to configure the display to either show one
measurement variable or two measurement variables.
10.3.4 Display value

With the aid of this parameter, the measurement variables provided by the
transmitter can be displayed. Depending on the 'Layout' display, either one or two
measuring variables can be displayed.
10.3.5 Keys HOTKEYs
Two independent user keys

are available, which can be
individually assigned with
different display functions.
The 2 user keys are available
in measurement mode top
right and left. If the buttons
are activated, they are backlit
in blue and the programmed
function can be executed by
touching.
The following functions are available:
reading MIN/MAX / Reset Value display / Reset

10.4 Measurement
The Measurement menu lists the measurement variables that the transmitter provides.
For magnetic inductive flowmeter, these are:
• Flow
• Volume (total volume counter)
• Temperature
• Part volume
Each measurement variable is still divided into its own submenu. In the submenu, all
parameters relating to the respective measuring variables can be adjusted.

MIM-
10.4.1 Flow
10.4.1.1 Unit
The displayed unit for the flow measurement can be selected from various
predefined standard units. It is also possible to define a user-defined unit ("user"),
here the "user unit" must be in LPM (liters / min.) be programmed:
e.g. Unit User = 100 LPM, if Q = 500 LPM then the display shows 5 users.
10.4.1.2 Separation
The parameter Separation sets the flow rate below which the measured value is
set to "0". If this function is active, the flow value "0" is shown in blue colour in the
display.
10.4.1.3 Simulation mode

See section 10.4.5
10.4.2 Volume
10.4.2.1 Counter type

Absolute:
Regardless of the flow direction, the calculated partial volume is added to the
counters.
Bidirectional:
Depending on the flow direction, the calculated partial volume is added or
subtracted to the counters. If the measured flow value is negative, the volume value
goes down from measurement to measurement (possibly into the negative range).

MIM-
10.4.2.2 Unit of the total volume counter
The parameter "Unit" determines the volume unit of the total volume counter. The
listed volume units are available. When changing the volume unit, the current
counter reading is converted to the new volume unit.
10.4.3 Temperature
10.4.3.1 Temperature Unit
The displayed unit for the temperature measurement can be selected from various
default units. It is also possible to define a user-defined unit ("user"), in which case
the "user unit" must be programmed in °C.
e.g. Unit “user” = 50 °C, if T = 50 °C then the display shows 1 user.
10.4.3.2 Simulation function

See section 10.4.5
10.4.4 Part Volume

10.4.4.1 Counter type
Absolute:
Regardless of the flow direction, the calculated partial volume is added to the
counters.
Bidirectional:
Depending on the flow direction, the calculated partial volume is added or
subtracted to the counters. If the measured flow value is negative, the volume
value goes down from measurement to measurement (possibly into the
negative range).
10.4.4.2 Unit of the part volume counter

The parameter "unit" defines the volume unit of all volume meters. The listed
volume units are available. When changing the volume unit, the current counter
readings are converted to the new volume unit.
10.4.4.3 Memory reset

In this menu, the part quantity counter can be reset.
10.4.4.4 Simulation function

See section 10.4.5
10.4.5 Simulation function

With the simulation function, all available measured values can be simulated
independently of each other for a limited time. The simulated measured values
have full effect on the displays and outputs.
Each simulation started is automatically stopped after the time set in the "Sim Auto
Stop Time" (user service) parameter (1 to 30 min) or after the programmed intervals
have expired.
The following measured values can be simulated:

MIM-
Volume flow, temperature and part quantity counter
The simulation starts as soon as the simulation is activated and the setting menu
is exited. The simulation is interrupted or stopped, if the setting menu is called up.
There are 3 different simulation types available for each purpose:
a.) „Triangle“ mode

In "Triangle" mode, the simulation
value increases continuously in the
increment of the parameter
"Increment value" and in the interval
"Interval time" with the "Start value".
After the amount of the parameter
"intervals", the simulation value
decreases again in the same way,
in order to increase again. This
process is repeated continuously until the set time "Sim Auto Stop Time" has
expired and the simulation ends.
b.) "Monotonic" mode
In "Monotonic" mode, the simulation

value increases continuously in the step
size of the parameter "Increment value"
and in the interval "Interval time" with the
"Start value". After the amount of
"Intervals" or the expiration of "Sim Auto
Stop Time", the simulation ends.
c.) “Static” mode
In the "Static" mode, a constant value is output for the

measured values flow and temperature. The
simulation ends after the set simulation time.
In the "static" simulation for the part quantity counter,

the counter is only changed once by the set
"increment value" after the start.
When simulating the subset counter, note that in triangle mode, the submenu
counter must be in bidirectional mode to achieve the expected effect.

10.6 Outputs
The MIM flowmeter provides a total of 2 outputs that are freely configurable. The
configuration of the outputs (output 1 and output 2) is done via a wizard function.
The wizard function guides the user step by step through all necessary settings.
Steps:
• Select output
• Selection of the source or the measurement variable to be output (Flow,
Volume, Temperature, Part volume)
• Selection of an output type (4-20 mA, 0-20 mA, 0-10 V, 2-10 V, alarm, pulse,
frequency output,IO-Link, control input)
• Setting the output (scaling, thresholds)
• Save the configuration

MIM-
The different output types are optimized for different types of applications. The
following table contains the application recommendations for the different output
types. If the outputs are not used according to the recommendations, measurement
deviations can occur and the desired functionality is not achieved.

10.6.1 Alarm output

The alarm outputs can be parameterized with a limit value function or a window
function.
10.6.1.1 Function
The parameter "Function" defines the basic function. Limit value function and
window function are available.
Limit value function: The switching output is active if the current flow rate value is
above the switching threshold. It remains active until the measured value has fallen
below the switching threshold minus the hysteresis.
Window function: The switching output is active if the current flow measured value
is outside a window, which is formed by the "switching threshold" and the "lower
threshold". The monitored window decreases in each case by the amount of the
"hysteresis". If the switching output is to be active within the window, the parameter
"switching function" must be changed from N/O to N/C.

MIM-
10.6.1.2 Output type

The parameter "Output type" defines the function of the transistor output. NPN,
PNP or PP (push-pull) output types are available. The push-pull type combines
NPN and PNP and is therefore the best choice for most circuits. All outputs are
short circuit and overload protected.
10.6.1.3 Switching function

The "switching function" defines the mode of operation of the outputs. In the default
setting "normally open", the output becomes active (switched) when the measured
value exceeds the switching threshold. This feature is also referred to as N.O.
In the "Normally closed" setting, the output below the switching threshold is already
active and is deactivated when the measured value exceeds the switching
threshold. This function is also referred to as N.C.
10.6.1.4 Threshold
Threshold for limit value function and upper window point for window function.
10.6.1.5 Lower threshold

The "lower threshold" defines the lower limit when using the window function. When
using the limit value function, this parameter remains ineffective.
The switching thresholds can be set both positive and negative.
10.6.1.6 Hysteresis
The appropriate setting of the "hysteresis" parameter ensures that the switching
outputs do not switch on and off continuously when the current measured value
fluctuates around the switching threshold. The hysteresis value should therefore
always be greater than the real measured value fluctuations. As a result, a targeted
suppression can be achieved.

MIM-
10.6.1.7 Filter factor (delay)
Further suppression of the switching outputs of fluctuating measuring signals can
be achieved by setting the parameter "Filter factor". If this parameter is selected
greater than 0, the switching of the output will be delayed accordingly. The "Supp
direction" parameter determines whether the deceleration is to be effective when
the switching threshold is exceeded or not reached (alternatively in both directions).
"High" means that the delay is active when the measured value exceeds the
switching threshold, "Down" means corresponding effect when the switching
threshold is undershot.
The measured value must stay continuously below or above the switching
threshold with the count of [SUPPRESSIONFACTOR] before the switching output
will be activated. With this function sporadic limit value overruns can be safely
suppressed.
According to the value of the parameter "filter factor", the response time of the
output generally increases.
Examples of the effect of the switching delay for window and limit function

MIM-
10.6.2 Analogue outputs
10.6.2.1 Current output 0(4)-20 mA

The current output gives a measured variable (flow or temperature) in scaled form
as a 0 (4) -20 mA current signal.
The current output is scaled via the "Value 20 mA "and" Value 4 mA "(with current
output 0-20 mA "Value 0 mA"). By default, the "Value 20 mA" parameter is set to
the value for the end of the measuring range, but can be parameterized as desired
within the measuring range, but always bigger than the measuring range start
value. The parameters "Value 4 mA" / "Value 0 mA" define the measured values
for the starting current value, which may also be set freely in the measuring range.
Note 1: If the value is set smaller than the end of the measuring range, the accuracy
of the output voltage value is reduced.
Note 2: The burden on the current output must not exceed 500 Ω.
10.6.2.2 Voltage output 0-10 V / 2-10 V
The voltage output outputs a measurement variable (flow or temperature) in
scaled form as a 0-10 V / 2-10 V voltage signal.
The scaling of the voltage output is done via the parameter "Value 10 V "and
"Value 0 V". By default, the "Value 10 V" parameter is set to the value for the end
of the measuring range, but can be parameterized as desired within the
measuring range, but must always be bigger than the measuring range start
value.
The parameters "Value 0 V” and “Value 2 V" define the measured values for the
start voltage value, which may also be freely set in the measuring range.
Note 1: If the value is set smaller than the end of the measuring range, the
resolution and accuracy of the output voltage value are reduced.
Output behavior 4-20 mA and 2-10 V

MIM-
Output behaviour 0-20 mA and 0-10 V
10.6.2.3 Activation of behaviour according to NAMUR

recommendation NE43
For all analogue outputs (current and voltage), the output behaviour can be
activated according to NAMUR recommendation NE43. When the function is
activated, e.g. the linear output of the 4 to 20 mA signals to 3.8 to 20.5 mA. Above
20.5 mA, the current value jumps to approx. 22 mA to signalise a measuring range
overshoot. Current output values between 3.8 and 4.0 mA indicate that the
measuring range is undershot. The output of approximately 3.6 mA signals a
device or process fault (e.g., empty tube signalling).
10.6.3 Pulse output

MIM flowmeter provides a scalable pulse output. When the pulse output is
activated, the cyclically incoming volume is available as a pulse train at the output.
The pulse width of the pulse output is constant and can be set in a range of 1 ms
up to 20 s. The pulse output is updated in a cycle of 20 ms. At the beginning of
each update, it is determined how much volume has been accumulated during the
previous update period. According to this amount and the set pulse volume, the
corresponding amount of pulses is available as a pulse train at the output.
The pulse signal is not suitable for determining the volume flow with an
external frequency measurement.
The reaction time of the pulse output is directly dependent on the flow
parameter "separation" (cutoff). The shortest reaction time is reached if this
parameter is set to the value "0.0" (factory setting: start of measuring range).

MIM-
The electrical output type of the pulse output is push-pull, therefore HIGH and LOW
are actively switched through at the output.
Behavior on OVERFLOW:
If the volumetric flow measurement is in the OVERFLOW range, the pulse output
is switched off and a constant HIGH level is applied to the output.
Generation of the output pulse train:
The pulse volume (pulse value volume per output pulse) can be set freely within
wide ranges. Together with the adjustable pulse width and the measuring range of
the device there is a limited range in which the pulse output is instantaneous.
This is the case if the following condition is met:
/ ∗
22500
or
/ ∗
Pulse volume L
If the condition is not met, there may be a time lag of the pulse output. This is
particularly undesirable if dosing tasks are to be performed with the pulse signal.
The following table shows the different combinations of pulse volume and pulse
width for the different measuring ranges, in which the above limiting condition is
fulfilled.

The pulse output only takes place in measuring mode; while the menu mode is
active no pulses are given. The pulses accumulated in the menu mode are output
as soon as the measuring mode is active again. Depending on the situation, this
can also lead to a longer pulse lag.
10.6.3.1 Pulse volume

The parameter "Pulse volume" is defined as volume quantity for the output of a
pulse; the unit is corresponding to [volume quantity / pulse]. The likewise common
pulse rate [pulse / volume unit] corresponds to the reciprocal of the pulse volume.
Example: Desired pulse rate at the output 10 pulses / liter => pulse volume = 1 /
pulse rate = 1/10 L = 0.1 L
10.6.3.2 Volume unit

The volume unit to be set is the input unit for the "Pulse volume" parameter. The
definition of a user-defined unit ("user") is also possible and can be programmed
in "liters".
Example:
Unit "user" = 10 [L], pulse volume = 2 [user]
The total pulse volume would be 2 * 10 = 20 [L]. After 20 liters, a pulse is output.
10.6.3.1 Pulse width
The pulse width of the pulse output is flexibly adjustable from 1 to 20,000 ms.

MIM-
10.6.4 Frequency output
The MIM flowmeter provides a scalable frequency output. When this output is
activated, the measurement variable (flow or temperature) associated with the
frequency output is output proportionally as a frequency with a 1: 1 pulse / pause
duration. The output frequency at the end of the measuring range can be set
(parameter "maximum frequency"). With the two parameters "Value for 0 Hz" and
"Value for max Hz", the frequency output in the measuring range can be freely
scaled.
Behavior on OVERFLOW:
If the measured value is in the overflow range, a constant frequency is output.
Output behavior Frequency output
10.6.5 Control input

Output 1 can be configured as a control input. This can reset the MIN / MAX
memory or the partial quantity counter depending on the assigned measurement
variable.

11. Status
The electromagnetic flowmeter can detect and display various device or application
errors.
If there is a status or error message, the STATUS symbol in the display alternately
flashes orange / red. To call up the status / error information, the status key must
be pressed, then the status window that appears then lists all the messages that
have accumulated up to this point in time. By pressing the  key, the user
confirms the knowledge of the displayed errors, the status memory is cleared and
the status window is closed. If one of the displayed errors persists, it will be reported
again by flashing the status icon.
The following status / error messages are generated:

12. Dosing function

The standard MIM provides a simple dosing function. This can be permanently
activated or deactivated in the settings menu under the menu item "dosing". If the
dosing function is activated, fixed functions are assigned to the 2 outputs which
cannot be changed as long as the dosing function is activated:
OUT2 (Pin 2): Dosing output in push pull configuration

OUT1 (Pin 4): Control input for START/STOP/RESET function
Attention!
If the control input is not used, then OUT1 (connection pin 4) must be
connected to PIN3 (GND), the control input must not be left open!
When using the dosing function, it is recommended to set the flow parameter
"Separation" (Cutoff) to the value "0.0" in order to achieve the most accurate
results possible (factory setting: start of measuring range).
If the dosing function is deactivated, both outputs are switched to OFF

(deactivated) by default, but can then be freely configured again.
In the main display of the dosing function, the quantity to be dosed in a

preselectable unit and the current flow value are displayed on the one hand. The
progress of the dosing process is additionally represented by a graphic animation
in which the container shown fills in percent and also overfill is shown.
Softkey buttons: All softkey buttons in dosing mode must be held down by the user
for at least 2 seconds and then released again for the corresponding function to be
triggered. This is to avoid accidental operation.

MIM-
Control input: Connection OUT1 can be used as a control input for the functions
Start / Stop / Reset when the dosing function is activated.
Function Conditions Control pulsetime

START Stop Modus 0.5 s < thigh < 4 s
STOP Run Modus 0.5 s < thigh < 4 s
RESET Stop Modus thigh > 5 s
START of dosing:
Dosing can be started either by triggering the "START" softkey or by applying a
high pulse to the control input.
After the START function has been triggered, the dosing output is switched to
active (High) and the dosing counter is counted down in the standard direction
when flow is present.
If the dosing process is stopped incompletely by hand, it can be restarted by the
START function.
STOP of dosing
If the dosing process is started, it can be stopped or interrupted by the STOP
function. Resumption of dosing to reach the total dosing quantity is possible by
START.
Like the START function, the STOP function can be remotely controlled by the
control input.
RESETTING the dosing value

If the dosing process is finished or stopped, the dosing quantity can be reset to the
default value by the function RESET.
This function can also be triggered at the control input.

MIM-
Description of dosing parameters
Dosing quantity "Value"

Parameter "Value" determines the dosing volume. The volume unit is specified in
the "Unit" parameter.
The maximum size is limited to 9999.9 (one digit after the decimal point). The
absolute quantity can be extended or restricted by a suitable choice of dosing
unit.
Dosing unit "Unit"

Parameter "Unit" defines the dosing volume unit. The choices are: mL, L, m3,
galUS, galUK, barrel, user
Dosing correction value "Correction value"

The "Correction value" parameter can be used to correct a system-related,
constant "incorrect dosing" without having to change the actual dosing quantity.
The correction value can be both positive and negative. If the system doses a
smaller volume than intended, the correction value must be positive, but negative
for a larger real volume. e.g.
Dosing quantity = 10 L
Correction value = -1 L
In this case, the metering counter will count from 10 L to '0', but will stop at 1 L
because the quantity to be metered is 9 L calculated on the basis of the
correction value of -1 L.
With a correction value of +1 L, the dosing counter will stop counting at -1 L,
because the dosing amount is calculated to be 11 L.
10 - (- 1 L) = 11 L
The adjustable value of the correction value must always be:
(Value + Correction Value)> 0
If this condition is not met, this will be indicated by a warning message and the
correction value will be preset to the value - (Value-0.1).
Dosing parameter "Timeout"

During the dosing process, the presence of a flow value not equal to 0 is constantly
monitored. For this purpose, the parameter "Timeout" is used to set the time after
which the status message "Time Out" is triggered.
The timeout value can be set between 0.5 sec and 10 sec.

13. IO-Link function

As of firmware version REV190320, the MIM flowmeter has an IO-Link
communication interface as standard. Process and diagnostic data can be
accessed directly via this interface and the device can be parameterized.
Output 1 is factory configured for IO-Link function. If the IO-Link communication
mode is active, the "IOLINK" symbol in the status display for the outputs is
displayed in green. The setup menu remains locked when the IOLINK mode is
active and is inaccessible.
To ensure that the IO-Link device can be operated correctly on the connected IO-
Link master, it is necessary to install the device description file matching the device.
The device description files (IODD) are available in the IODDfinder, ioddfinder.io-
link.com.
Further information on IO-Link is available on the homepage www.io-link.com.
