Setup

Configuration

The term "Configuration" means the basic
adjustments of the meas. system. You inform
the meas. system about the application (level
measurement, gauge, distance …), the
measurement loop name and the DCS output
address of the sensors. The configuration
corresponds to an electronic wiring and
labelling of your sensor or, in other words,
telling the system which sensor for what
application and where.

Parameter adjustment

After the configuration, you carry out the
parameter adjustment for each individual
sensor. This means adjusting the sensors to
the respective operating range and adjusting
to the actual application. You inform the sen-
sor which product distance (which level) is
"empty" and which "full". This is called adjust-
ment. Here you choose in which physical unit
(volume, mass) and unit of measurement (m

3

,

gal, liters …) the adjusted measured value
should be outputted. In the submenu "Sensor
optimisation" you inform the sensor electron-
ics about the actual environment, such as
e.g. quick changes of the measured value,
foam generation, gas stratification, solid or
liquid.
