1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Scope and Organization
This document serves as the user manual for the Fluid Property Calculations Program, which is intended
for use in the ROC809 Remote Operations Controllers. This manual describes how to download, install,
and configure the Fluid Property Calculations Program (referred to as the “Fluid Property Calculations”
or “the program” throughout the rest of this manual). You access and configure this program using
ROCLINK™ 800 Configuration Software loaded on an IBM-compatible personal computer (PC)
running Windows® 2000 (with Service Pack 2) or XP.
The sections in this manual are arranged to provide information in the order in which it is needed for
first-time users. Once you become familiar with the procedures, and the software running in the ROC,
the manual may be used as a reference tool.
The manual has the following major sections:
ƒ Section 1, Introduction
ƒ Section 2, Installation
ƒ Section 3, Configuration
ƒ Section 4, Reference Materials
This manual assumes that you are familiar with the ROC800-series units and their configuration. For
more information, refer to the following manuals:
ƒ ROC809 Remote Operations Controller Instruction Manual (Form A6116).
ƒ ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User Manual (Form A6121).

1.2 Product Overview

The program calculates density, compressibility, viscosity, and isentropic exponent values for fluids not
supported by AGA 8. The program supports up to 12 meter runs with a maximum of 8 streams in any
one unit. The following fluid types can be configured:
Fluid Temperature Correction Factor Method Pressure Correction Factor Method
Steam International Association for the Properties International Association for the Properties
of Water and Steam (IAPWS-97) of Water and Steam (IAPWS-97)

Saturated Steam International Association for the Properties International Association for the Properties

The system then stores the values in either an orifice or turbine (linear) meter run for use in calculating
volume, mass, and energy values. ROC809 firmware version 2.00 or greater is required to support
writing values to density and compressibility.
A user-defined point, accessed through the Field Setup screen (see Figure 12), allows you to enter the
values the system needs to configure the fluid and assign it to a meter run.

1.3 Program Requirements

The Fluid Property Calculations (QER 07Q014) version 1.02 is compatible with ROC800 firmware
version 2.00 and with version 1.20 (or greater) of ROCLINK 800 software. A hardware based License Key
is required to enable the user program.

Program specifics include:

Target DRAM ROCKLINK
User Defined Flash Used SRAM Used Display
File Name Unit/ Used (in 800
Point (UDP) (in bytes) (in bytes) Number
Version bytes) Version

fluid_properties.tar 2.0 60 67,552 3,528 253,952 1.20 1

Note: You must connect a PC to the ROC809’s LOI port before starting the download.

For information on viewing the memory allocation of user programs, refer to the ROCLINK 800
Configuration Software User Manual (Form A6121), Section 7.7.

1.3.1 License Keys

License keys, when matched with valid license codes, grant access to applications such as Fluid
Property Calculations.
The term “license key” refers to the physical piece of hardware that can contain up to seven different
licenses (refer to Figure 1). Each ROC809 can have none, one, or two license keys installed. If you
remove a license key after enabling an application, the firmware disables the task from running. This
prevents unauthorized execution of protected applications in a ROC809.

DOC0422A

Figure 1. License Key

Note: The Fluid Property Calculations program requires both a Fluid Properties license key and an
AGA 3/7/8 license key. The program includes a Fluid Properties license key. You must have
previously installed the AGA 3/7/8 license key.

2 INSTALLATION

This section provides instructions for installing the user program into the ROC. Read Section 1.3 of the
manual for program requirements.
The downloadable program name is fluid_properties.tar.

Notes:
ƒ An IBM-compatible computer must be connected to the Local Operator Interface (LOI) port before
you begin the download.
ƒ For firmware version 2.0, the Fluid Property Calculations program must be downloaded as program
number 1. For later versions of firmware, the program can be loaded into any available empty
position.

2.1 Installing the License Key

If you order the Fluid Property Calculations program for a new ROC809, your ROC809 is delivered
with the license key installed. Go to Section 2.2.
If you order the program for an existing ROC809, you must install the license key yourself.

Caution Failure to exercise proper electrostatic discharge precautions, such as wearing a

grounded wrist strap may reset the processor or damage electronic components,
resulting in interrupted operations.

When working on units located in a hazardous area (where explosive gases may be
present), make sure the area is in a non-hazardous state before performing these
procedures. Performing these procedures in a hazardous area could result in
personal injury or property damage.

To install a license key:

1. Remove power from the ROC809.
2. Remove the wire channel cover.
3. Unscrew the screws from the Central Processing Unit (CPU) faceplate.
4. Remove the CPU faceplate.
5. Place the license key in the appropriate terminal slot (P4 or P6) in the CPU.

Incorrect Correct DOC0423A

Figure 2. License Key Installation

Note: When using a single license key, install it in slot P4.

6. Press the license key into the terminal until it is firmly seated (refer to Figure 2).

 Fluid Property Calculations Program User Manual
7. Replace the CPU faceplate.
8. Replace the screws on the CPU faceplate.
9. Replace the wire channel cover.
10. Restore power to the ROC809.

2.1.1 Verifying the License Key Installation

After you install the license key, you can verify whether the ROC809 recognizes the key. From the
ROCLINK 800 screen, select Utilities > License Key Administrator. The License Key Administrator
screen displays:

Figure 3. License Key Administrator

Fluid Properties and AGA_3/7/8 appear in the Application Name column. (For further information on
the License Key Administrator screen, refer to the ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User Manual,
Form A6121 Section 2.4.)

Note: The value in the App Code field on this screen indicates the total number of stream licenses
available on this ROC809.

After you verify that the license key is correctly installed and recognized, proceed to Section 2.2 to
download the user program.

to be calculated, assign the calculations to a meter run, as well as specify the density and viscosity. The
screen also provides program status and displays mass accumulation totals.
There are three options that appear at the top of the screen. These options appear on both tabs and define
which meter run the information is applied to. To move from one calculation setup to another, use the
Configuration Tree Menu or the Point Number drop down box.
To access this screen:
1. From the Directory Tree, select User Program > Program #1, fluid_properties > Display #1,
Fluid Setup.
2. Double-click Display #1, Undefined. The Fluid Setup screen displays, showing the General tab:
