DISPLAY MODE

Select one of the following. Subsequent screens
will be tailored to your choice.

Pressure Head displays the raw pressure

exerted by the column of water above the
pressure sensor, in kiloPascals, pounds per
square inch, bars, or kilograms per square
centimeter. If you choose this mode, click
Finish to end the Wizard.

Depth converts the pressure of the water

column to a depth reading, in meters,
centimeters, feet, or inches.

Level - Surface: Commonly used for surface

water elevations. Data file readings are
“positive up.” Increasing water levels will result
in increasing readings. Decreasing water
levels correspond to decreasing readings.

Level - Top Of Casing: Commonly used for

drawdown in groundwater wells. This mode is
“positive down.” Decreasing water levels
correspond to increasing readings, because
the water level is getting further from the top of
the well casing. Increasing water levels result
in decreasing readings.
