Configuring level measurement

The Setup method can also be used to configure the measurement. This method can
be called via the SETUP Transducer Block (TRDSUP).

 31 Configuration parameters for level measurement in bulk solids
LN = Probe length
D = Distance
L = Level
If the DC value is less than 7 in the case of rope probes, measurement in the area of
the tensioning weight is not possible. The empty calibration E may not exceed LN -
250 mm (LN - 10 in) in these cases.

Empty calibration Specify the empty distance E (distance from
(empty_calibration) reference point R to 0% mark).
Full calibration Specify the full distance F (distance from the 0%
(full_calibration) mark to the 100% mark).
Level (level) Displays the measured level L.
Distance Displays the distance D between the reference
(filtered_dist_val) point R and the level L.
