Backup Level Override; Backup Level Override Parameters - Siemens HydroRanger 200 Instruction Manual

Backup Level Override

Backup level override provides the option of overriding the ultrasonic input with another
contacting point level device, for example, the Pointek CLS200. The ultrasonic reading is
fixed at the programmed switch level until the discrete input is released and the
ultrasonic device makes its decisions based on the override value.

Backup Level Override Parameters

P064: Reading Override Enable
Sets the discrete input as the source of a level reading override.
P065: Reading Override Value
Substitutes value for current reading when the discrete input (P064) is enabled. Value is
added in current units and is valid only for the following:
• level
• space
• distance
• difference
• average modes of operation
• head level in OCM mode
Example:
A high level backup switch is connected to Digital Input Two in the same application as
Transducer One at level value 4.3 m.
