The measuring system is designed to be completely antimagnetic. The basic signal received in the LEVELMETER 2000 will be computed into an angle by comparing the signal with a reference curve stored and then displayed in the required unit.
On both of the ports ( A & B) up to 31 sensors/instruments may be connected. This manual covers mainly the combination of the LEVELMETER 2000 with ZEROTRONIC sensors. For other possible combinations such as together with the instruments MINILEVEL and LEVELTRONIC NT please refer to the respective manuals.

ON/MODE key for more than 3 seconds the display starts flashing and the automatic shut off is disabled. In the standard mode the instrument shut off after about 10 minutes. Exeption: In case the LEVELMETER 2000 is powered by a connection to a mains adapter, the instrument is never shutting off automatically.

Both keys ON/MODE and ENTER must be pressed simultaneously for at least one second. All the manually installed data is lost and the LEVELMETER 2000 will be set to the following basic standards: Basic standards (Default values): Measuring mode: absolute...

The LEVELMETER 2000 should have been turned on a few minutes before the measurement procedure. For this procedure a suitable surface must be chosen (rigid, flat and as horizontal as possible).
Page 15
Only one sensor at a time can be set to ZERO virtual. This sensor must be selected first. The selection pointer must be moved below the marking ZERO in the display of the LEVELMETER 2000 by pressing the key ON/MODE several times.
Page 16
In these cases it is useful to set the basic value for this surface to: 0°00’00‘‘ This can be done by manually setting the virtual zero as described before or by automatically define the value with the Levelmeter 2000 set-up. (It is done by using a reversal measurement mode without turning the sensor 180 deg.)
Page 17
Result: Despite the fact that the sensor is still mounted at the same angle the display of the Levelmeter 2000 now shows the value 0°00‘00‘‘ This is the so called virtual ZERO This new virtual ZERO is the reference for all the future measurements based on this angle (originally 0°09‘16‘‘)

HOLD function has not been successfully completed within 60 seconds. The procedure needs to be repeated. By using the function RESET the LEVELMETER 2000 will return to the standard settings. With the exception of the calibration data all previous adjustments are lost!! RESET After the new software is loaded an instrument’s reset must be done.

3.5. Function SEND (Print-Function) Using the key SEND/ESC will send the displayed value through the port "OUT" to a connected PC, or Laptop via the RS232 port. This function can also be used in combination with HOLD in order to transmit the „frozen“ value.

3.7. Selecting a sensor or an instrument With the LEVELMETER 2000 the possibility exists to display the measured values of individual sensors, respectively instruments connected, or the difference between two connected sensors. In case of the differential measurement the two sensors must be connected to the two ports A and B. It is not possible to measure the difference of two sensors connected to the same port.

This value can be accepted or a new value can be entered or the value can be set to zero. is temporarily stored in the Levelmeter 2000 in case of differential measurement with two sensors / measuring instruments. The „REL ZERO OFFSET“ value can be changed during the measurement.
