in the shop. The minimum configuration instructions
required in the field follow. Use the information from
the operating parameters table in Section 1.1.2 before
beginning configuration.
1. Power up the transmitter.
The display changes every 5 seconds to show one of four
values: Status, Level (or IfcLevel or SpecGrav), %Output,
and Loop current.
2. Remove the cover of the lower electronic compartment.
3. Use the and keys to move from one step of the
configuration program to the next step, see Figure 2.
4. Press the key. The last character in
the first line of the display changes to

of the configuration program (the default password is 0).
7. After entering the last value, allow 10 seconds before
removing power from the transmitter.
The following two configuration entries are the minimum required for
configuration (the default password is 0 from the LCD/keypad).
Proc SG
(xxx)
Enter the actual specific gravity of the process liquid at
operating temperature (N/A for Interface or Density).
OperTemp
xxx
Enter the actual operating temperature of the process
The following four parameters must be entered if the default values are
not satisfactory.
LvlUnit
(select)
Select the desired level units of measure
(inches, cm, m, feet). (Default is inches).
Lvl Ofst
(xxx)
Enter the desired level reading when level is at the calibrated
zero reference (typically bottom of the displacer). (Default is
Zero).
Set 4mA
xxx.x
Enter the level value (0%-point) for the 4 mA point. (Default
is 0 for level and interface).
Set 20mA
Enter the level value (100%-point) for the 20 mA point.
xxx.x
(Default is full level range).
