    If you cannot maintain this distance, you should carry out a false signal suppression during setup. This applies particularly if buildup on the vessel wall is expected. In such cases, we recommend repeating the false signal suppression at a later date with existing buildup. VEGAPULS 69 • Modbus and Levelmaster protocol...

    5. Insert the wire ends into the terminals according to the wiring plan Information: Solid cores as well as flexible cores with wire end sleeves are insert- ed directly into the terminal openings. In case of flexible cores without end sleeves, press the terminal from above with a small screwdriver, the terminal opening is then free. When the screwdriver is released, the terminal closes again.
