P650 Offset Calibration
Calibrates Empty (P006) if the reported level is consistently high or low by a fixed amount
(stored in P652).
Values

Before using this feature, verify the following parameters are correct:
• Empty (P006)
• Temperature (P664)
Offset Calibration
Begin with a steady level.
1. Press the measurement key
2. Repeat step 1 at least five times, to verify repeatability.
3. Measure the actual reading (use tape measure).
4. Key in the actual value, and press ENTER
The deviation between the entered Empty (P006) value and the calibrated Empty value is
stored in Offset Correction (P652).
P651 Sound Velocity Calibration
Calibrates the speed of sound constant.
Values

Use P651 under the following conditions:
• The acoustic beam atmosphere is other than air.
• The acoustic beam atmosphere temperature is unknown.
• The reading accuracy is acceptable only at higher material levels.
For best results, calibrate with the level at a known value close to empty.
