6.5 Scaling
Settings in the "reduced menu“
The adjustments under scaling determine
which figures and which unit will be actually
displayed on the measured value indication
(upper menu item). In the menu items "0 %
corresponds…“ and "100 % corresponds…“
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 : per-
cent, mass, volume, pressure etc. After
pushing [+] or [–] save with [OK]. According
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 param-
eter "Height“ (compare chapter "8 Measuring
results and units“).

Adjustment example
You know the data of the vessel, i.e. you
know that at 0 % filling the distance of the
liquid to the sensor is 3.5 m and at 100 %
filling 0.3 m.
In this menu item you choose the
adjustment unit, e.g. m (d), if you use
a radar sensor [m (d) = distance in
m]. Use the [+] and [–] key, to
choose the unit and [OK] to save the se-
lected unit.
Enter in these two menu items the
distance values (d1 and d2). With the
[+] and [–] keys you set the values,
with [OK] you save them.
Note that in this example, a lower
distance value exists at 100 % filling
than with 0 % filling!
