3.3.2: Simulate DO (F = End)
Simulation of the digital output signal
Value
Select the applied output value (relay on or relay off).
The parameter function is completed by pressing LEFT
gives an alarm/limit.
3.4: Sensor Variables
You can read out device-internal data with this parameter group. The displayed values
depend on the respective application. You can access the following data:
3.4.1: Raw Value (for service purposes only)
Distance from the flange to measuring medium
The measured distance from the flange to the surface of the measuring medium.
3.4.2: Echo Amplitude
Measure of quality of reflection
This dimensionless value is an absolute measure of the strength of reflection at the
measuring medium. Its display can be evaluated as follows:
• x > 1:
• 1 > x > 0.5:
• 0.5 > x > 0.05: satisfactory
• x < 0.05:
3.4.3: S/N Ratio
Signal-to-noise ratio of the measured value in dB
S/N ratio provides a relative measure of the strength of reflection of the measuring
medium in dB. Its display can be evaluated as follows:
• x > 20:
• 20 > x > 10:
• x < 10:
