Set the number 1500 (with keys [+],
[–] and [OK]) in this menu item. This
corresponds to the level at 0 % (if
you want to have a lower resolution of

the meas. value indication, you can also set
150 or 15).

Set the number 4500 (with keys [+],
[–] and [OK]) in this menu item. This
corresponds to the level at 100 %.

Adjust the decimal point as shown
(with keys [+], [–] and [OK]).

Choose the term "Height“ in this
menu item (with keys [+], [–] and
[OK]).

If you have chosen "Height“ in the
previous menu item, you get a
choice of several units (mm, dm, cm,
m, yard…). Choose m (with the keys
[+], [–] and [OK]).

In the meas. value indication, the
scaled value is now shown.

7.4 Scaling

The adjustments under scaling determine
which number values and which unit will be
actually displayed on the measured value
indication (upper menu item). In the menu
items "0 % corresponds…“ and "100 % cor-
responds…“ you can enter with [+] or [–]
and [OK] values which should be displayed
at 0 % and at 100 % filling. In the menu item
"Decimal point…“ you determine the position
of the decimal point. In the next menu item
"prop. to…“ you get a choice of parameters:
push [+] or [–] to select percent, mass, vol-
ume, pressure etc. and save with [OK]. Ac-
cording to this adjustment, the menu item
"Unit…“ provides a new choice, e.g. m, dm,
cm, mm, ft, yd and in, if you have selected
the parameter "Height“ (compare chapter "8
Measuring results and units“).

After scaling, the requested output can be
assigned to the scaled value in the menu
range "Parameter adjustment outputs“ (menu
items "prop. to…“ and "Unit…“).
