TROVIS-VIEW4 software
1 TROVIS-VIEW4 software
These instructions describe the operation and setting of the Media6 Differential Pressure Me-
ter on the TROVIS-VIEW4 operator interface.
Refer to Mounting and Operating Instructions uEB9527-3 for a description of the Media6
Differential Pressure Meter.
Refer to the Operating Instructions uEB6661 on how to use the TROVIS-VIEW4 software.
The TROVIS-VIEW4 software allows users to congure and parameterize various smart
SAMSON devices (in this case, the Media6 Differential Pressure Meter) over a common user
interface. It consists of the operator interface, communication server, and the device-specic
module. It is possible to switch languages during operation (currently, English, German,
French, Spanish, Japanese, Russian, Danish available). Working in TROVIS-VIEW is similar
to working in Windows Explorer.
In addition to conguration and operation, the TROVIS-VIEW4 software includes other fea-
tures, such as documentation of the Media6 device, for example, editing plant texts, saving
and printing conguration data.
Almost the entire conguration of a Media6 device can be performed using the software.
The user level set to 'Maintenance technician' is used to congure the device. This level is set
by default and can be changed.
The TROVIS-VIEW4 software allows operation in ofine mode (device not connected to a
PC) or in online mode (device connected to a PC). This enables data to be changed in the de-
vice immediately, or they can be saved on the computer rst and downloaded later to the de-
vice on site.
Each smart SAMSON device has its own separate module that contains the device-specic
specications.
1.1 General
TROVIS-VIEW4 and the Media6 device are supplied with default data for lling level mea-
surement, in cases where no specications have been made by the customer.
Newly created data data can be saved to a le, which can be opened at anytime. A stored
TROVIS-VIEW le (*.tro) contains the conguration data and parameters of one single device
and can be transferred to the Media6 device after it has been connected to the computer.
Settings and readings of the software are described in these instructions.
6 EB 9527-2 EN
Communication with Media6 Differential Pressure and Flow Meter
To download conguration data from the software to the SAMSON memory pen or to up-
load data from the memory pen, a SAMSON modular adapter must be inserted into the seri-
al interface of the PC or laptop to connect the memory pen. See the Operating Instructions
uEB6661 for TROVIS-VIEW4 software.
When the Media6 device is not connected, the default settings are shown in
TROVIS-VIEW4. A TROVIS-VIEW4 le (*.tro) can be loaded and edited by selecting Open
in the File menu.
Note:
New records created in TROVIS-VIEW4 rmware version 3.00 or higher are not
compatible with earlier versions (e.g. rmware version 2.30).
2 Communication with Media6 Differential Pressure and Flow
Meter
To establish communication between the software and the Media6 device, the electrical con-
nection of the Media6 device must be performed as described in the Mounting and Operat-
ing Instructions uEB9527-3.
To establish communication, the serial interface of the computer must be connected to the se-
rial interface port of the Media6 device using the SAMSON connecting cable. Following
this, start TROVIS-VIEW4 and perform the basic settings. The Media6 device can be cong-
ured step-by-step using the start-up wizard.
Write protection switch on the Media6 device set to OFF.
Refer to the Operating Instructions uEB6661 on how to use the TROVIS-VIEW4 software.

3 User interface
Start TROVIS-VIEW4 (Media6).
The interface appears with a menu bar and tool bar and the tree structure for Media6,
which includes all relevant parameters organized in folders and subfolders.
You only perform the settings needed for communication with a Media6 device.

3.1 Liquid level measurement
By default, all settings in TROVIS-VIEW4 are automatically performed in the 'Maintenance
technician' user level in [Filling level mode].
In the 'Specialist' user level, [Flow rate mode], [Counting ow rate mode], [Differential pres-
sure mode], [Filling level in tank truck] can also be selected.

3.1.1 Identication
Data relevant for unique identication of the Media6 device are shown. These details cannot
be edited.

3.1.2 General data
They allow the settings relevant for a measuring procedure to be made by selecting options
from drop-down lists or by directly entering values.

User interface
'Filling limit reached' signal
Select either 'Overow' or 'Operating lling limit'.
Both values for these options are to be entered in [Medium] depending on the specied
tanks.
The bar graph blinks on the display when the adjusted limit is exceeded.
'Equalizing valve open' signal
When 'Yes' is selected, a signal is activated when the equalizing valve on the valve block be-
tween the (+) and (–) measuring lines (see uEB9527-3, Fig.4) is opened. 'OFF' appears
on the display of the device.
Limit switch type A1
For limit switch A1: select either 'Min. contact' or 'Max. contact' in the list.
− Min. contact: alarm1 is activated when the value falls below the limit.
− Max. contact: alarm1 is activated when the value exceeds the limit.
Alarm limit A1 in %
Enter the value in the range between 0 and 100%.
A blinking bar graph on the display indicates that the adjusted value has been exceeded
(with a max. contact) or the value has fallen below the adjusted value (with a min. contact).
Limit switch type A2
For limit switch A2: select either 'Min. contact' or 'Max. contact'.
−Min. contact: alarm2 is activated when the value falls below the limit.
−Max. contact: alarm2 is activated when the value exceeds the limit.
Alarm limit A2 in %
Enter the value in the range between 0 and 100%.
A blinking bar graph on the display indicates that the adjusted value has been exceeded
(with a max. contact) or the value has fallen below the adjusted value (with a min. contact).
LCD·'On'/'Off'
The display can be turned on or off.
Power-saving mode (PSM)·'On'/'Off'
Select 'On' to place the measuring cycle and display into the power saving mode (ESM). The
charging state of the battery is indicated in [Status] > [Battery voltage] (see [Status],
page24).

3.1.3 Tank
Certain data about the tank shape must be known to calculate tank characteristic. A default
set of data with predetermined values is available in the tank database. Load these data and
overwrite them with the corresponding tank geometry data and settings.
[Tank]
Enter the geometrical data required to calculate the tank and its characteristic.
