Connectivity to TRIME-GW Line
Compatible to SONO probes
3.1
How to configure SONO-probes to appropriate operating and calibration parameters?
TRIME-GW Line is initially adjusted for the application for grain drying with the calibration curve Cal14, operation
mode CF and 3 seconds average time. The analogue outputs are adjusted to 4..20mA. With this pre-adjustment
TRIME-GW Line can be installed direct in the heating zone, without further adjustments. For operation at the
discharge hopper where an absolute moisture value is important, TRIME-GW Line has to be adjusted to a suitable
calibration curve Cal-x, depending on grain type and possibly to a zero-offset, depending on installation place.
There are two ways to configure and adjust a SONO-probe:
A: Online Configuration via SONO-VIEW
With the stand-alone device SONO-VIEW it is possible to configure SONO-probes online to an appropriate operating
mode, without the need to connect the SONO-probe to a PC. The operating mode depends on the application like
the moisture measurement under a silo flap, inside a dryer or mixer or on a conveyor belt. The SONO-probe can be
adapted via the SONO-VIEW to the appropriate operating mode like cyclic measurement, averaging, filtering, cu-
mulating and other powerful operating parameters. Furthermore, it is possible to select a calibration curve inside
a SONO-probe with zero-offset setting. All configuration parameters are stored in a non-volatile memory inside
the SONO-probe. This ensures that the analog output (e.g. 4-20mA) of the SONO-probe which could be connected
in parallel to a PLC, responds directly to the set configuration parameters.
