7.1 Simulation

For simulation of a certain filling, you can call
up the function "Simulation“ on the adjustment
module MINICOM, in the software program
VVO or on the signal conditioning instrument.

You simulate a vessel filling and thereby a
certain sensor current. Please note that con-
nected instruments, such as e.g. a PLC react
according to their adjustments and will prob-
ably activate alarms or system functions.

Simulation with VVO

If you start the simulation mode with the ad-
justment program VVO on the PC, the simu-
lated level is outputted until you quit the
simulation mode.

7.2 Error code

Error code

Rectification

E013

No valid measured value

Message is displayed during warm-up phase

- Sensor in the warm-up phase
- Loss of the useful echo

If the message remains, a false echo storage
must be made with the adjustment module
MINICOM in the menu “sensor optimisation” or
better, with the PC and VVO.
If the message still remains, carry out a new
adjustment.

E017

Adjustment span too small

Carry out a readjustment.
Make sure that the difference between
min. and max. adjustment is at least 10 mm.

E036

Sensor software does not run

Sensor must be programmed with new software
(service).
Message appears during a software update.

E040

Hardware failure/Electronics defec-

Check all connection cables.

Transducer defective.
Contact our service department.

Simulation with VEGAMET

If you call up the simulation mode with the
adjustment keys on the signal conditioning
instrument, 15 minutes after the last adjust-
ment, the signal conditioning instrument re-
turns again to standard operating condition.

Simulation with MINICOM

If you start the simulation mode on the adjust-
ment module MINICOM, the sensor returns to
standard operating mode after one hour.
