Sets the minimum echo confidence that the echo must meet in order to pre-
vent a Loss of Echo condition and the expiration of the LOE timer. When Con-
fidence (2.8.6.1.) (Page 114) exceed Echo Threshold, the echo is accepted as
a valid echo and is evaluated. Use this feature when an incorrect material
level is reported.

Timer (2.5.2.) (Page 103)
The CLEF algorithm is used mainly to allow correct level reporting for low dK
materials which may otherwise cause an incorrect reading in an empty or
almost empty vessel. It is used from Low Calibration Point (process empty
level) up to the level defined by CLEF range (see illustration below). Above
that point the Center algorithm is used. For more detail, refer to CLEF Range
(Page 175).
