BEFORE STARTING

Start from run mode:
1. Select the desired language for configuration: English, French, German or Spanish in the language screen (32)
«language». Scroll up for quickly reaching the language selection screen.
2. Define type of measurement:
a. Level only
b. Level and Volume
c. Interface only
d. Interface and Volume
Scroll down until the screen reads «MeasType». The unit will now show only the applicable screens for the selected type
of measurement.
3. Scroll one screen down and select the applicable engineering unit in «LvlUnits», all configuration values will be entered
in that engineering unit.
4. Move to the loop control screen «LoopCtrl», select the loop control in function of the type of measurement «MeasType»
selected.
5. Refer to the configuration procedure of the selected type of measurement.
6. Refer to page 20 for all hidden diagnostic screens and advanced configuration parameters. These screens allow the
advanced user to configure the unit for special applications or to troubleshoot the unit in the field. It is NOT recommended
to access this toolset without proper guidance or having followed proper training.

Offset = cm or inches
The offset is the distance between reference point (e.g.
bottom of tank) and end of probe. From the reference point
both 4 mA and 20 mA levels are calibrated. When offset is
set at zero, the end of the probe is the reference point.
4 mA Level = cm or inches
or zero level point, is measured from the reference point.
The unit has a transition zone at the bottom of the probe.
Min. level to enter for media with:
r = 2.0: 150 mm (6") + Offset
ε
r = 80: 25 mm (1") + Offset
ε
20 mA Level = cm or inches
or 100 % level point, is measured from the reference point.
The unit has a transition zone at the top of the probe.
Transition zone varies depending on probe type and
media: see probe specifications page 34 and continuing.
Probe length = cm or inches, record the exact probe length as
printed on the nameplate: 705-xxxx-xxx / 7Mx-xxx-xxx
Select the dielectric scale of the media to measure: 1.4–
Dielectric
1.7 or 1.7–3 or 3–10 or 10–100. When the dielectric is
known, it will enhance the overall accuracy of the unit but
select the dielectric scale ALWAYS to the lowest expected
dielectricum.
Safety zone: In addition to the blocking distance,
20 mA = 60 cm
4 mA = 0 cm
the user can introduce a safety zone
to warn for liquid level entering this
zone beneath the blocking distance.
The loop signal will shift in this zone
to a selectable fault signal. The unit
will go to normal read out, when level
drops lower than the safety zone,
unless a latched fault signal is used.
The safety zone is disabled from fac-
tory. Safety zone related settings
include:
«SZ Fault»: to select the preferred
error signal
«SZ Height»: to define the safety
zone area
«SZ Alarm Reset»: to manually
reset a latched «SZ Fault»
