Selecting a tank type

You can set the type of vessel in which the probe will be immersed. The type of vessel impacts the

2 Press Edit.
3 Select the type of tank in which the probe will be immersed and press OK.

Setting the nozzle length

You can set the length of the nozzle present on your tank. For an illustration of the concept, see Figure
33 on page 49.
To do so:
1 Select Device Setup > Application Setup > Nozzle Length.
2 Press Edit.
3 Set the length of the nozzle present on your tank and press OK.

Setting the bypass/sw pipe diameter

If installing your LWT on a bypass or stilling well (SW), you need to set the diameter of said bypass/
stilling well.
To do so:
1 Select Device Setup > Application Setup > Bypass/SW pipe Diam..
2 Press Edit.
3 Set the length of the bypass/stilling well and press OK.

Changing the end of probe mode

The end of probe mode depends on your type of probe. By default, if you have a coaxial probe, your LWT
is factory-set as Grounded. For rod and cable probes, your LWT is factory-set as Isolated.

1 Select Device Setup > Application Setup > End of Probe Mode.
2 Press Edit.
3 Highlight the other end-of-probe mode and press OK.

Toggling the remote transmitter state

If your instrument came with a remote transmitter unit, the head unit is configured to recognize that remote
transmitter. However, should you remove the transmitter, or should you choose to add a transmitter at a
later date, you need to toggle the remote transmitter state to represent the new configuration.
To do so:
1 Select Device Setup > Application Setup > Remote Transmitter.
2 Press Edit.
