8.6.7 Display
Fct. 3.2.1 (or Fct. 1.1.1) FCT.DISP.
This function is used to select the measured
variable.
LEVEL
Measuring range, see Figure in
}
DISTANCE
Sect. 8.5.
CONVERSION
REFLECTION
If the conversion value is to be displayed, a conver-
sion table must be progra mmed first otherwise a
parameter error will occur.
Fct. 3.2.2 (or Fct. 1.1.2) UNIT.LENGTH
Use this function to select the unit for displaying level and
distance.
m
• cm
• mm
inch
• Ft
PERCENT
• BARGRAPH
The "percent display" refers to the scaling range of current
output I. Therefore the current output must also be set to
level or distance, otherwise a parameter error will occur.
Under "Bargraph", a maximum of 25 segments are
displayed in the form of vertical lines in the first line of the
display (0% = 1 segment, 100% = 25 segments).
Fct. 3.2.3 (or Fct. 1.1.3) UNIT.CONV.
Use this function to select the unit for conversion display.
m3
litres
US Gal
GB Gal (Gal = gallons)
ft3
bbl (petroleum barrels)
PERCENT
BARGRAPH
User Unit (see Fct. 3.2.4)
The "percent display" refers to the scaling range of current
output I. Therefore the current output must also be set to
conversion, otherwise a parameter error will occur.
Under "Bargraph" in the first line of the display a
maximum of 25 segments as vertical lines are displayed
(0% = 1 segment, 100% = 25 segments).
Fct. 3.2.4 USER UNIT
Enter the text for the conversion "user unit" (see Fct. 3.2.3)
here. It consists of a maximum of 10 alphanumeric
characters.
Characters assignable to each of the 10 places:
alpha characters A-Z / a-z
numbers 0-9 or
special signs + -
blank characters (= underscore)
Fct. 3.2.5 ERROR MSG.
Use this function to select whether errors are to be
displayed during measurement.
NO
Error messages shown only in the error list,
see Sect. 8.8
YES
When errors occur during measurement,display
of the measured value will alternate with error
messages.

8.6.8 Current output I
Fct. 3.3.1. FUNCTION I
Use this function to select the measured variable.
OFF (= deactivated, the output supplies a constant 4
mA, e.g. necessary for HART
3.3.4 cannot then be selected, i.e. they are skipped
over).

SW.OUTP. (function and switching threshold are set in
Fct. 3.6).
Fct. 3.3.2 RANGE I
Use this function to define the current in error condition.
E = Error at 2 mA or 22 mA.
4-20 mA (hold last measured value when error occurs)
4-20 mA/E=2 (min. 3.6 mA for Ex-i output!)
4-20 mA/E=22
Fct. 3.3.3 SCALE 4 mA
This function does not appear (is skipped over) when
"OFF" is set under Fct. 3.3.1.
This function is used for I min = 4 mA to define the
lower value for level, distance, conversion or reflection
(scaling 4 mA).
Setting LEVEL or DISTANCE under Fct. 3.3.1:
Setting range and unit for SCALE 4 mA same as for
Fct. 3.1.1 TANKHEIGHT. If a reference or tank bottom
offset is set, this must be allowed for!
Setting CONVERSION under Fct. 3.3.1:
Unit for SCALE 4 mA same as in Fct. 3.2.3
UNIT.CONV. But value must be smaller than the maxi-
mum value in the conversion table.
Setting REFLECTION under Fct. 3.3.1:
The setting range for SCALE 4 mA is 0...99.
Fct. 3.3.4 SCALE 20 mA
This function does not appear (is skipped over) when
"OFF" is set under Fct. 3.3.1.
This function is used für I
upper value for level, distance, conversion or reflection
(scaling 20 mA)
Setting LEVEL or DISTANCE under Fct. 3.3.1:
Setting range and unit for SCALE 20 mA as for Fct.
3.3.1 TANKHEIGHT. The value set here should not be
greater than the response threshold. (Response
threshold = tank height (Fct. 3.1.1) - block distance
(Fct. 3.1.2)). If a reference or a tank bottom offset is
set, this must be allowed for!

CONVERSION
Unit for SCALE 20 mA same as in Fct. 3.2.3

that of Fct. 3.3.3, otherwise error during Parameter
Check.

The value set here must be greater than that of Fct.
3.3.3, otherwise error during Parameter Check.
