If the tank is Disabled then it can be Enabled by clicking the “Enable Tank” button.
Note that you can only enable tanks in sequence (enabling tanks 1,2,3 and 4 is
accepted. Enabling tanks 3,4,8,11 is not for example).

To change the name of a tank click the “Change Tank Name” button and enter the
new tank name. Press OK to accept or Cancel to discard.

To set the units displayed select the appropriate option from the “Units ” drop down box.

If the selected units are not “per cent”, then click on the “Set Maximum Tank capacity
button and enter the maximum volume of the tank. The configuration table will then be
filled with a range of “suggested” calibration values.

8.3.2 To calibrate the tank:

When calibrating a tank, it should be filled using a flow meter or other method of
accurate measurement to ensure a satisfactory result.

The procedure must be started with the tank empty.

Set the maximum tank capacity with the exact value, if known.

If the exact value is not known, an estimate may be used, however this value must be
corrected to the measured maximum capacity value before pressing ‘Get Cal Val’ for
the maximum value.

The setting of the maximum tank capacity serves to evenly distribute the periods at

which a calibration value is obtained. These may be adjusted to a measured value until
Get Cal Val’ is pressed for that volume. For example, if you wish to calibrate at 132 Litres
and end up with a capacity of 137 Litres, before pressing ‘Get Cal Val’, you may change
132 to 137, rather than attempting to remove contents from the tank.

You may use up to 11 steps to calibrate your tank. If you wish to use fewer calibration
steps, i.e. 5 points including FULL and EMPTY. Enter 0 in the bottom line of the
Calibrations ’ box, and your selected values on the lines above. All volume boxes above
your maximum value must be left blank.

Calibrate as per the instructions given previously, ensuring that ‘Get Cal Val’ is not
pressed for any of the blank values.

8.3.3 Sending and Saving configuration data

After calibration figures have been calculated and configurations set the data should be
uploaded to the system by clicking the “Save to TLSP” button.

It is recommended that you backup your calibration data by using the ‘Save to File ’ button,
and saving to your PC for future use if required.

To close the Configuration utility press the “Exit” button.
