See Appendix A. Warning: Always connect the sensor with the power
turned off.
At zero feet (out of water), the sensor should output approximately
4mA. This can be read directly on the current meter or, if using the
voltmeter method, the meter should read 0.5 volts across a 125 ohm
resistor. At the maximum water depth of the sensor, the sensor should
output approximately 20mA or 2.50 volts across the 125 ohm resistor.
Issue: Water in the vent tube
a. If water gets into the vent tube the water level readings can show very
large errors and can be erratic. If water gets into the vent tube of the cable
place it next to a heater for 24 hours to dry the inside of the cable.
