You will additionally need the following:
- USB-C to USB-A cable
Step-by-step instructions
To use FlowVision 2.0™, the device needs to be added to the Devices module list.
- Use a USB-C cable to connect your CODA Coriolis mass flow meter to the computer.
Note: A green LED light on the CODA Coriolis mass flow meter indicates power input.
- Open FlowVision 2.0™.
- Click the Devices icon located on the top, left side panel.
- Click the green plus sign next to the search bar under Devices.
- A new “Add Device” window will pop-up displaying two options: Wired or Bluetooth. Select “Wired”.
- Unless otherwise specified, check that the parameters are as follows:
- Device ID: 1
- Baud Rate: 19200
- Click Add.
Note: If the connection is successful, the device will appear as an entry under the Devices module.
- Exit out of the “Add Device” window when finished adding a device.
Connecting a CODA controller to FlowVision 2.0™
Each package comes with the following:
- CODA Coriolis mass flow controller
- NIST-traceable calibration certificate
- Quick Start Guide
- Access to FlowVision 2.0™
You will additionally need the following:
- DB15 connector
- USB-C to USB-A cable
- Power supply
Step-by-step instructions
- Use a DB15 connector to supply power to your CODA Coriolis mass flow controller.
- Turn the power supply on and use the course knob to turn it up to 24 volts.
- Connect the power wire (pin 9) to the positive terminal of the power supply and connect the ground wire (pin 10) to the ground terminal of the power supply.
Note: A green LED light on the CODA Coriolis mass flow controller indicates power input.
To use FlowVision 2.0™, the device needs to be added to the Devices module list:
- Use a USB-C to USB-A cable to connect your CODA Coriolis mass flow controller to the computer.
- Open FlowVision 2.0™.
- Click the Devices icon located on the top, left side panel.

- Exit out of the “Add Device” window when you are finished adding the device.
To assign a setpoint for the CODA Coriolis mass flow controller:
- Click the settings symbol on the top, right hand corner.
- A new window will appear. Click Controller.
- If the setpoint source is set to Analog, use the dropdown arrow to change it to Serial. Click Apply.
Note: A message may appear when you make this change. Simply unplug and replug the DB15 connector with the USB-C to USB-A cable still connected to the computer.
- Exit out of the window. You can now assign a setpoint to your CODA Coriolis mass flow controller by navigating back to the main screen and filling out the blank space under Setpoint.
Note: Each CODA Coriolis mass flow controller has a full-scale that is not necessarily the same as another CODA Coriolis mass flow controller. Be sure to check the full-scale range of your device which can be found on the calibration sheet as part of your CODA package.
