Abstract
A measuring system comprises a measuring transducer of vibration-type having a tube arrangement, an exciter arrangement, a sensor arrangement, and a measuring system electronics. The measuring system electronics is adapted in a first operating mode to supply current to the oscillation exciters whereby the tube arrangement executes wanted oscillations with an oscillation frequency predetermined by the driver signals and to receive and to evaluate oscillation measurement signals representing oscillatory movements of the wanted oscillations. The measuring system electronics is further adapted in a second operating mode to supply current to the oscillation exciters that only the tube executes wanted oscillations and the tube executes no wanted oscillations while nevertheless executing mechanical oscillations coupled with the wanted oscillations of the tube and to receive and to evaluate both oscillation measurement signals representing oscillatory movements of the wanted oscillations and also oscillation measurement signals representing oscillatory movements of the coupled oscillations.
