Sensor frequency
The vibrating fork frequency is indicated in the read-only Sensor Frequency device
variable.
Temperature compensation
The temperature coefficient of the vibrating fork sensor in units of %/°C.
Uncompensated frequency
Uncompensated Frequency indicates the vibrating fork frequency before compensating
for a varying process temperature.
Sensor state
This is a read-only variable and indicates the present state of the vibrating fork sensor.
As the vibrating fork sensor becomes immersed in a process liquid, the vibration frequency
decreases and the sensor state changes to a 'wet state' at the detection point.
When a process liquid falls away from the fork, the vibration frequency increases and the
sensor state changes to a 'dry state' at a detection point.

communication range of this device. In a self-organizing
network, the more neighbors a device has, the more robust the
network will be.
Number of advertised packets received by the device from all
networks within range.
Number of times the device has tried to join the network prior to
being accepted. Too many join attempts result in the device
considering the join attempt as failed. If this happens, re-check
the Join Key and Network ID.
