Quick Start Guide May 2022 WARNING Electrical shock could cause death or serious injury. Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause electrical shock. Ensure the power to the level switch is off, and the lines to any other external power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring the level switch.

Quick Start Guide May 2022 Set the operating mode All versions of the level switch have two operating modes: • Normal mode (red LED) • Self-check mode (yellow LED) Procedure 1. Set the mode switch to 1 s Dry On (or 1 s Wet On). 2.
Operating modes Description of mode color Normal When the LED is red and flashing, it indicates that the Rosemount 2130 may be uncalibrated, successfully calibrated, has an electrical load problem, or has an internal PCB fault. Yellow Self-check When the LED is yellow and flashing, it indicates the...
