SECTION IV

START-UP

General

The HydroRanger I has two modes of operation: RUN and CALIBRATE. When the unit
is powered up, after installation procedures have been completed, it is factory set to
start-up in the run mode, to detect the distance from the transducer face to the target in
meters. This is the normal mode of operation, which can be programmed to display
level, volume, totals or flow readings and yield corresponding mA output and relay
closures for alarms, pump controls, etc.
The CALIBRATE mode is selected by pressing the RUN/CAL keypad switch. This
mode will enable the user to calibrate the HydroRanger I to suit his preferences and to
the particular application to which the HydroRanger I is being be applied.
NOTE
The first step when calibrating is to reset all parameters to their
factory setting by using the master reset P-99.
After having entered all the required parameters, the HydroRanger I can be made to
simulate its operation within the particular application giving display, relay operation and
analog output. Refer to parameters P-76 through P-78.
When calibration has been completed, the HydroRanger I can be put into normal
operation by pressing the RUN/CAL keypad switch.
Unsatisfactory response in the run mode, after calibrating, may indicate that the
transducer aiming requires adjustment.
