    5.2.5 QUICKSET Recommended as a simple and fast way to start up Echotel. QUICKSET programming is aided by 8 screens to set the 8 basic parameters of the device if the required application is uncomplicated level metering, recommended for liquids only. The instructions of this programming mode are also to be found, below the screw cover, on the front panel of the Echotel.
