Daniel 3410 Series meter design
Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meters are designed to accurately measure products in
applications where reliable performance is critical, by measuring the difference in signal transit
time with and against the flow across one or more measurement path(s). A signal transmitted in
the flow direction travels faster than one transmitted against the flow direction. Each
measurement path is defined by a transducer pair in which each transducer alternately acts as
transmitter and receiver. The meter uses transit time measurements and transducer location
information to calculate the mean velocity.

Computer simulations of various velocity profiles demonstrate that multiple measurement
paths provide an optimum solution for measuring asymmetric flow.Daniel 3414 Gas Ultrasonic
Flow meters utilize four cross-bore, parallel-plane measurement paths that offer a high degree
of accuracy, repeatability, bi-directional measurement and superior low-flow capabilities
without the compromises associated with conventional technologies. These features make the
Daniel 3414 the best choice for custody transfer applications.

Daniel 3412 Gas Ultrasonic Flow meters utilize two-path in-line (four transducers) measurement
paths and are designed to measure the difference in signal transit time with and against the flow
across one or more measurement path(s). The two paths are configured at right angles to one
another in a “bulls-eye” arrangement.

Daniel 3411 Gas Ultrasonic Flow meters are single-path (two transducer) Gas Ultrasonic Flow
Meter and is referred to as a bounce-path (as the signal is bounced off the meter body) or a
centerline path (as it goes through the centerline of the meter body) meter. The bounce-path
method simplifies construction of the meter and makes the meter less susceptible to
interference from pipeline liquids.

For optimal flow measurement conditions, Daniel suggests the piping configurations below.
Regardless of the configuration selected, the user agrees to accept full responsibility for the
site piping design and installation.

Flow conditioning is recommended for best measurement results
•

Honed or un-honed meter tube(s)

•

Flow direction (unidirectional or bidirectional)

•

Correct meter size selection - too low may cause poor flow stability (thermal
convection or too fast may cause erosion problems and resonance, cracks or failure of
probes or thermowells (approximately 0.3 to 30 m/sec or 1 to 100 ft/sec).

•

Space availability for meter lengths (to allow inlet piping customization)

•

Concentric alignment pins or flange concentricity technique considerations

IMPORTANT
The bore of the mating piping should be within 1% of the meter inside diameter.

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meters should be mounted in horizontal piping
with the chord paths horizontal

FAULTY METER INSTALLATION
Correctly install the equipment.
If meter bodies are mounted or oriented differently than specified above, debris or gas may
collect in the transducer ports which could adversely affect the transducer signals, or cause
equipment damage.

•

Normally, the meter body is installed so that the electronics assembly is on the top of
the meter. If there is insufficient space above the piping for this arrangement, the meter
can be ordered with extra long transducer cables for remote mounting or the meter
housing can be installed with the electronics assembly on the bottom.

•

The mating piping should include temperature measurement connections located a
minimum of three nominal pipe diameters length down stream of the meter, or per
AGA Report No. 9.

Meter safety for hoist rings and lifting slings
A Daniel Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter can be safely lifted and maneuvered into and out of a meter
run for installation or service by obeying the following instructions.

DANGER TO PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT
Lifting a Daniel Ultrasonic Meter with other equipment
The following lifting instructions are for installation and removal of the Daniel Ultrasonic
Meter ONLY. The instructions below do not address lifting the Daniel ultrasonic meter while it
is attached, bolted, or welded to meter tubes, piping, or other fittings.
Using these instructions to maneuver the Daniel Ultrasonic Meter while it is still attached,
bolted, or welded to a meter tube, piping, or other fitting may result in equipment damage,
serious injury, or death.
The operator must refer to their company's hoisting and rigging standards, or the "DOE-STD1090-2004 Hoisting and Rigging" standard if such company standards do not exist, for lifting
and maneuvering any assembled meter tube and associated piping.

CRUSHING HAZARD
During meter installation or removal, always place the unit on a stable platform or
surface that supports its assembled weight.
Failure to do so could allow the meter to roll, resulting in serious injury or equipment damage.

Prior to lifting the unit, refer to the Daniel 3414, 3412, or 3411 Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter
nameplate or outline dimensional (general arrangement) drawing for the assembled weight.

When lifting a Daniel Ultrasonic Meter by itself, Daniel recommends two methods. These
methods are:
•

Using appropriately rated Safety Engineered Swivel Hoist Rings installed in the Daniel
Ultrasonic Meter end flanges.

•

Using appropriately rated lifting slings positioned at designated areas of the Daniel
Ultrasonic Meter.

Both methods must be used in conjunction with all appropriate company hoisting and rigging
standards or the DOE-STD-1090-2004 HOISTING AND RIGGING standard if such company
standards do not exist. Refer to the following sections for more information on these two
methods.

2.4.1

Use of appropriate safety engineered swivel hoist rings in
meter end flanges
Daniel Ultrasonic meters come equipped with a tapped hole located on the top of each meter
body end flange. A flat machined surface surrounds each tapped hole. This feature provides
complete surface contact ONLY between the meter flange and an OSHA compliant Safety
Engineered Swivel Hoist Ring as shown in Figure 2-9.
Operators SHALL NOT use Eye Bolts (see Figure 2-9) in the Daniel Ultrasonic Meter flange tapped
holes to aid in lifting or maneuvering the unit.
Operators SHALL NOT use other Hoist Rings that do not fully seat flush with the counter bore on
the top of the meter flanges.

Safety precautions using safety engineered swivel hoist rings
Read and follow the Safety Precautions listed below:
1.

Meters must only be lifted by personnel properly trained in the safe practices of rigging
and lifting.

Remove the plug bolts installed in the tapped holes on the top of the flanges. Do not
discard the bolts as they must be reinstalled once the lifting operation is complete to
prevent corrosion of the tapped holes.

Make sure the tapped holes on the meter are clean and free of debris before installing
the hoist rings.

Use only the safety engineered swivel hoist rings that are rated for lifting the meter. Do
not use any other type of hoist rings with the same screw size or heavy duty hoist rings.
The meter tapping and counter bore size are suitable only for the hoist rings specified
by Daniel.

When installing a hoist ring, make sure the base surface of the hoist ring fully contacts
the machined flat surface of the tapped hole. If the two surfaces do not come in contact
then the hoist ring will not hold its full rated load. Torque the hoist ring attachment
bolts to the limit indicated on the hoist rings.

Section 2: Mechanical installation

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual

June 2014

3-9000-759 Rev D

After installation of the hoist rings, always check that the ring rotates and pivots freely
in all directions.

NEVER attempt to lift the meter using only one hoist ring.

Always use separate slings to each hoist ring. NEVER reeve one sling through both hoist
rings. The slings must be of equal length. Each sling must have a load rating that equals
or exceeds the hoist ring load rating. The angle between the two slings going to the
hoist rings must never exceed 90 degrees or the load rating of the hoist rings will be
exceeded.

Figure 2-10 90 Degree angle between slings

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual
3-9000-759 Rev D

Section 2: Mechanical installation
June 2014

NEVER allow the slings to contact the electronics enclosure. Damage to the enclosure
may occur. Use a spreader bar with the slings to prevent contact with the electronics
enclosure and the base enclosure (see Figure 2-12). If the slings do come in contact
with the electronic enclosure then remove the two bolts holding the enclosure to its
base and temporarily remove the head from the meter during the lifting operation. You
will need to unplug the cable from J3 on the Acquisition Module. Two screws hold this
cable in place.
Once the lifting operation is complete, reattach and secure the electronics cable to J3
on the Acquisition Module, return the electronics enclosure to its original position,
replace the bolts, and secure the enclosure in place.
Lifting the meter with the upper enclosure installed but without the bolts installed, may
cause the electronics to fall and cause personal injury or equipment damage.

Figure 2-11 Incorrect sling attachment

10.

NEVER apply shock loads to the meter. Always lift the meter gradually. If shock loading
ever occurs, the hoist ring must be inspected per manufacturer's recommendations
prior to any further service. If a proper inspection cannot be performed, discard the
hoist ring.

11.

NEVER lift with any device, such as hooks, chains, or cables that could create side pulls
that could damage the ring of the hoist ring.

12.

NEVER lift more than the ultrasonic meter assembly including electronics and
transducers with the hoist rings. The only exception that safe is to lift the meter with
one ASME B16.5 or ASME B16.47 blind flange bolted to each end flange of the meter.
NEVER use the hoist rings on the meter to lift other components such as meter tubes,
piping or fittings attached to the meter. Doing so will exceed the load rating of the hoist
rings.

13.

Remove the hoist rings from the meter after lifting is completed and store them in an
appropriate case or container per their manufacturer's recommendation.

14.

Apply heavy lubricant or anti-seize to the threads of the plug bolts and reinstall the plug
bolts to keep the tapped holes free of debris and to prevent corrosion.

Appropriately rated lifting slings
The following instructions are intended to provide general guidelines for using proper lifting
slings when lifting a Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter by itself. These instructions
are intended to be followed in addition to your company's standards or the DOE-STD-10902004 Hoisting and Rigging standard if such company standards do not exist.

Safety precautions using appropriate rated lifting slings
1.

Meters must only be lifted by personnel properly trained in the safe practices of rigging
and lifting.

NEVER attempt to lift the meter by wrapping slings around the electronics enclosure.

NEVER attempt to lift the meter using only one sling around the meter. Always use two
slings wrapped around each end of the body as shown below. A choker style sling is
recommended.

Figure 2-12 Correct sling attachment

Appropriately rated lifting slings

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual
3-9000-759 Rev D

Section 2: Mechanical installation
June 2014

Visually inspect the slings prior to use for any signs of abrasion or other damage. Refer
to the sling manufacturer's procedures for proper inspection of the particular sling you
are using.

Only use slings with ratings that exceed the weight to be lifted. Reference your
company's standards for safety factors that must be included when calculating the load
rating.

NEVER allow the slings to contact the electronics enclosure or the transducer cabling.
Damage to the meter may occur. If the slings do come in contact with the electronics
enclosure, then remove the two bolts holding the enclosure to its base and temporarily
remove the head from the meter during the lifting operation (Remove the two bolts
holding the enclosure to its base and unplug the cable from the Acquisition Module.
Two screws hold this cable in place.) Use a spreader-bar on the slings to prevent contact
with the electronics.

Once the lifting operation is complete, reattach and secure the electronics cable to J3
on the Acquisition Module, return the electronics enclosure to its original position,
replace the bolts, and secure the enclosure in place. Lifting the meter with the upper
enclosure installed but with out the bolts installed, may cause the electronics to fall and
cause personal injury or electronics damage.

Figure 2-13 Incorrect sling attachment

NEVER apply shock loads to the meter. Always lift the meter gradually. If shock loading
ever occurs, the slings must be inspected per manufacturer's procedures prior to being
placed in any further service.

Mounting requirements in heated or cooled
pipelines
The ambient operating temperature of the Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter
electronics (i.e. Flameproof enclosure and Intrinsically safe base enclosure) is -40 oF (-40 oC) to
+140 oF (+60 oC). If the meter is installed into a pipeline which is heated or cooled outside this
temperature range it is necessary to remove the electronics housing from the meter body (i.e.
Spool piece acting as process fluid conduit) and mount it next to the meter body on a pipe stand
or other rigid structure.
Extended length transducer cables (P/N 2-3-3400-194, 15 ft. long) shall be used to connect the
Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter electronics to the transducers installed in the
meter body. The process temperature must also not exceed the operating temperature range of
the transducers. T-11, T-12 and T-21 transducers have an operating range from -4 oF (-20 oC)
to 212 oF (+100 oC). T-22 transducers have an operating range from -58 oF (-50 oC) to
212 oF (+100 oC).

Cable length TTL mode
The maximum cable length is 2000 feet when the Digital Output “TTL” mode is selected.

3.2

Cable length Open Collector mode
For the Digital Output “open collector” mode, the maximum cable length depends on the cable
parameters, pull-up resistance used, the maximum frequency to output, and frequency input
parameters being driven. The following table provides estimated cable lengths for different pullup resistor values and different Max Frequency settings in the meter using the following cable
parameters. The table also provides an estimated cable voltage drop which indicates how much
voltage will be across the cabling and effectively indicates to what voltage level the frequency
input can be pulled down to by the frequency output.
If the voltage drop is higher than the voltage required for the frequency input to see a low state,
then the configuration will most likely not work for your system. Performance of frequency
outputs will vary from this table with setup and frequency input being driven.

Wiring and I/O
Daniel MeterLink uses the TCP/IP protocol to communicate with the Daniel 3410 Series
Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter electronics instead of Modbus ASCII or RTU. The TCP/IP protocol only
works across either Ethernet, RS-485 full duplex (4-wire) or RS-232. Daniel MeterLink can
communicate with multiple meters if they are multi-dropped using 4-wire, full duplex RS-485
mode. The meter electronics is HART capable and provides communication flexibility with
Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meters.
Note: Port B for RS-485 full duplex communication is not supported.
The HART® output provides communication with other field devices (e.g., Field Communicator
and AMS™ Device Manager software) and ultimately, communicates key diagnostic information
through PlantWeb® architecture.

If not using Ethernet, a full duplex serial connection is necessary for Daniel MeterLink to
communicate with a Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Meter.

The Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter electronics auto-detects the protocol used
and automatically switches between TCP/IP, Modbus ASCII, and Modbus RTU so it is not
necessary to make any meter configuration changes to the protocol.

Ethernet communications
The Ethernet port IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address are software-configurable. In
addition, a meter can be configured to act as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
server to assign an IP address to a PC or laptop running Daniel MeterLink. The DHCP server
facility is not intended to act as a general purpose DHCP server for a wider network. To this end,
no user control is provided over the class or range of IP addresses the unit provides. A standard
twisted pair (Cat-5) cable should be used for Ethernet wiring.
It is strongly recommended that the meter be configured using an independent (off-network)
single host. After configuration of the Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter, the DHCP
option must be turned off if used on a LAN/WAN.

RESTRICTED ETHERNET AND SERIAL CONNECTIVITY USAGE
Failure to restrict Ethernet and communication access to the Daniel 3410 Series Gas
Ultrasonic Flow Meter can result in, among other things, unauthorized access, system
corruption, and/or data loss.
User is responsible for ensuring that physical access and Ethernet or electronic access to the
Daniel 3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Flow Meter is appropriately controlled and any necessary
security precautions are implemented; such as, establishing a firewall, setting password
permissions and/or implementing security levels.

Serial connections
Use a serial cable, Daniel P/N 3-2500-401, to connect to a PC running Daniel MeterLink. The
cable is designed for RS-232 communications which is the serial Port A default configuration
(see Appendix A field wiring diagram, Daniel Drawing DMC - 005324). The DB-9 end of the cable
plugs directly into the PC running Daniel MeterLink. The three wires on the other end of the
cable connect to the CPU Module RS-485/RS-232 terminals. The RED wire goes to RX, the
WHITE wire goes to TX, and the BLACK wire goes to COM (see Table 3-6 for Port A wiring).
RS-485, 2-wire connection on Port A, uses TX+ and TX- on the CPU Module and has a ground
wire.
When Beldon wire No. 9940 or equivalent is used, the maximum cable length for RS-232
communications at 9600 bps is 88.3 meters (250 ft.) and the maximum cable length for RS-485
communication at 57600 bps is 600 meters (1970 ft.).
Port A supports a special override mode which forces the port to use known communication
values (19200 baud, address 32, RS-232). Note that the protocol is auto-detected. This mode is
expected to be used during meter commissioning (to establish initial communication) and in
the event that the user cannot communicate with the meter (possibly due to an inadvertent
communication configuration change). Alternately, when using Daniel MeterLink with an
Ethernet port, use Ethernet cable, Daniel P/N 3-3400-079, to connect the PC.

The unit should be properly sealed with a sealing compound after electrical connections have
been tested according to the customer's Best Practices schedule. Some areas require a
witnessed Acceptance Test for the installed system and require that the meter run for a
predetermined length of time (approximately one to two weeks) before the unit is sealed. This
allows time to verify all electrical connections are correct, that the meter is accurately
measuring flow and that the meter meets the customer’s installation requirements.

Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By
contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to
most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public
License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses
are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and
charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you
can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do
these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to
ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

GNU General Public License

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the
recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which
gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that
there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed
on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems
introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger
that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for
everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright
holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program",
below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the
Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or
a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is
addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are
outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been
made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any
medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and
to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer
warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

GNU General Public License

105

Open source licenses

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual

June 2014

3-9000-759 Rev D

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based
on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the
files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or
is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to
all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause
it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or
display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there
is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may
redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy
of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print
such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an
announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not
derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them
as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work
based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless
of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely
by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective
works based on the Program.

106

GNU General Public License

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual

Open source licenses

3-9000-759 Rev D

June 2014

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a
work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other
work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or
executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the
following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must
be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used
for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for
a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the
terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange;
or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding
source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if
you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord
with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For
an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus
any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of
the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components
(compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that
component itself accompanies the executable.

GNU General Public License

107

Open source licenses
June 2014

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual
3-9000-759 Rev D

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated
place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along
with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided
under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have
received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long
as such parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else
grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the
Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so,
and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on
it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient
automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients'
exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third
parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other
reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,
agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from
the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations
under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute
the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the

108

GNU General Public License

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual
3-9000-759 Rev D

Open source licenses
June 2014

Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you
could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the
balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right
claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices.
Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through
that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide
if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose
that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of
this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or
by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution
is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the
limitation as if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public
License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of
this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and

GNU General Public License

109

Open source licenses

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual

June 2014

3-9000-759 Rev D

conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If
the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever
published by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution
conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted
by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make
exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all
derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE
PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN
WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS"
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH
YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY
COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE
PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO
USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED
INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM
TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the
best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and change under
these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the start of each
source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

One line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.
Copyright (C)
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the
GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of
the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY;
without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program;
if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA
02111-1307 USA
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an interactive
mode:

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author Gnomovision comes with
ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free software, and you are
welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

GNU General Public License

111

3-9000-759 Rev D

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate parts of the General
Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and
`show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a
"copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program `Gnomovision' (which
makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
signature of Ty Coon, 1 April 1989
Ty Coon, President of Vice
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary
programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit
linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU
Library General Public License instead of this License.

GNU Lesser General Public License

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 3, 29 June 2007
Copyright © 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but
changing it is not allowed.
This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates the terms and conditions of
version 3 of the GNU General Public License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed
below.
0. Additional Definitions.
As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser General Public License, and
the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
"The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License, other than an Application or a
Combined Work as defined below.
An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided by the Library, but which is
not otherwise based on the Library. Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is
deemed a mode of using an interface provided by the Library.
A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an Application with the Library.
The particular version of the Library with which the Combined Work was made is also called the
"Linked Version".
The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the Corresponding Source for
the Combined Work, excluding any source code for portions of the Combined Work that,
considered in isolation, are based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.

GNU Lesser General Public License

113

Open source licenses

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual

June 2014

3-9000-759 Rev D

The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the object code and/or
source code for the Application, including any data and utility programs needed for reproducing
the Combined Work from the Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined
Work.
1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License without being bound by
section 3 of the GNU GPL.
2. Conveying Modified Versions.
If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a facility refers to a function or
data to be supplied by an Application that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed
when the facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified version:
"a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event
an Application does not supply the function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
"b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of this License applicable to
that copy.
3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from a header file that is part of
the Library. You may convey such object code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the
incorporated material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure layouts and
accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates (ten or fewer lines in length), you do
both of the following:
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the Library is used in it and
that the Library and its use are covered by this License.
b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license document.

114

GNU Lesser General Public License

Daniel 3410 Series Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meter Installation Manual

3-9000-759 Rev D

June 2014

4. Combined Works.
You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that, taken together, effectively
do not restrict modification of the portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and
reverse engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of the following:
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that the Library is used in it
and that the Library and its use are covered by this License.
b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license document.
c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during execution, include the
copyright notice for the Library among these notices, as well as a reference directing the
user to the copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
d) Do one of the following:
0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, and
the Corresponding Application Code in a form suitable for, and under terms that
permit, the user to recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of the
Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the manner specified by
section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying Corresponding Source.
1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable
mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time a copy of the Library already present on
the user's computer system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version of
the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked Version.
e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise be required to
provide such information under section 6 of the GNU GPL, and only to the extent
that such information is necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the Application with a
modified version of the Linked Version. (If you use option 4d0, the Installation
Information must accompany the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding
Application Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
Corresponding Source.)

5. Combined Libraries.
You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side by side in a single
library together with other library facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your choice, if you do both of the
following:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library,
uncombined with any other library facilities, conveyed under the terms of this License.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it is a work based on the
Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same
work.
6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the GNU Lesser
General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the
present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library as you received it specifies
that a certain numbered version of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that published
version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser General Public License, you may
choose any version of the GNU Lesser General Public License ever published by the Free
Software Foundation.
If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide whether future versions of the
GNU Lesser General Public License shall apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of
any version is permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the Library.
