SETUP 1.1 determines the measurement unit for the displayed level.
The following units can be selected:
L - m3 - kg - lb. - GAL - USGAL - bbl - _ (no unit).
Alteration of the measurement unit will have consequences for
operator and SETUP-level values.
Please note that the span has to be adapted as well; the calculation is
not done automatically.
This setting determines for level and span the number of digits
following the decimal point.
The following can be selected:
00000 - 1111.1 - 222.22 - 33.333
With the span, the sensor signal is converted to a quantity. The span
is determined on the basis of the selected measurement unit at 100%
signal. The more accurate the span, the more accurate the
functioning of the system will be.
Example 1
Calculating the span for level
Let us assume that the sensor generates 100% signal at a level of
2,481.3 Liters, the selected unit is "Liters". The span is 2481.3. Enter
for SETUP 1.1: "L", SETUP 1.2: "1111.1", SETUP 1.3: "24813" and
for SETUP 1.4: "0".
Example 2
Calculating the span for level with offset
Let us assume that the sensor generates 100% signal at 652.31
USGAL. The selected unit is USGAL.
The span is 652.31. Enter for SETUP 1.1: "USGAL", SETUP 1.2:
"222.22", SETUP 1.3 "45231".
Enter here the "not measured" quantity which is present without a
sensor signal being generated.
Also, a negative offset can be entered: do press the middle and right
button simultaneously.
