Shorten the probe

In order to leave some clearance distance between the probe end and the tank bottom, the probe might
have to be shortened. The goal is to have the probe hang straight so that it does not touch the wall. 2 in.
(5 cm) is a suggested value. The probe can be shortened in field. Use the following form to calculate the
probe length:
Probe Length = Tank height - 2 in. (5 cm)
After shortening the probe make sure to update the transmitter configuration to the new probe length,
see "Probe length" on page
