The sensor is adjusted via the four keys of the display and adjust-

ment module. The LC display indicates the individual menu items. The

functions of the individual keys are shown in the above illustration.

Approx. 10 minutes after the last pressing of a key, an automatic reset

to measured value indication is triggered. Any values not confirmed

with [OK] will not be saved.

6.4 Setup steps

After VEGASON 61 is connected to voltage supply or after voltage

recurrence, the instrument carries out a self-check for approx. 30

seconds. The following steps are carried out:

Internal check of the electronics

Indication of the instrument type, the firmware as well as the sen-

sor TAGs (sensor designation)

Status byte goes briefly to fault value

Then the current measured value will be displayed and the corre-

sponding digital output signal will be outputted to the cable.

2)

As VEGASON 61 is a distance measuring instrument, the distance

from the sensor to the product surface is measured. To have the real

product level displayed, an allocation of the measured distance to the

percentage height must be made. To carry out this adjustment, the

distance is entered with full and empty vessel. If these values are not

known, an adjustment with the distance values, e.g. 10 % and 90 %

is also possible. Starting point for these distance specifications is

always the lower side of the flange, with all other versions the lower

side of the transducer.
The actual level is then calculated on the basis of these entered

values. At the same time, the operating range of the sensor is limited

from maximum range to the requested range.
The real product level during this adjustment is not important, be-

cause the min./max. adjustment is always carried out without chang-

ing the product level. These settings can be made ahead of time

without the instrument having to be installed.

The values correspond to the actual measured level as well as to the settings

already carried out, e.g. default setting.
