6.1 Simulation
To simulate a certain filling level, you can call
up the function “Simulation” in the adjustment
module MINICOM, in the adjustment software
PACT
ware
TM
or in the HART
®
handheld.
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
probably activate alarms or system func-
tions. One hour after the last simulation ad-
justment, the sensor returns automatically to
standard operating mode.

Meaning
Rectifying measure
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 carried out 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
- Sensor must be programmed with new
run
software (service)
- Message appears during a software update.
E040
Hardware failure/Electronics
Check all connection cables.
