VEGAPULS 63 • Profibus PA
6 Set up with the indicating and adjustment module
Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your
settings with [OK] and jump to the next menu item with the [ESC] and
the [->] key.
Because a radar sensor is a distance measuring instrument, the
distance from the sensor to the product surface is measured. To have
the real product level displayed, an allocation of the measured
distance to the percentage height must be made. To carry out this
adjustment, the distance is entered with full and empty vessel. If these
values are not known, an adjustment with the distance values, e.g.
10 % and 90 % is also possible. Starting point for these distance
specifications is always the seal surface of the thread or flange. By
means of these settings, the real level is calculated.
The real product level during this adjustment is not important, because
the min./max. adjustment is always carried out without changing the
product level. These settings can be made ahead of time without the
instrument having to be installed.
Proceed as follows:
1
Select the menu item "Setup" with [->] and confirm with [OK]. Now
select with [->] the menu item "Min. adjustment" and confirm with
[OK].
2
Edit the percentage value with [OK] and set the cursor to the
requested position with [->].
3
Set the requested percentage value with [+] and save with [OK].
The cursor jumps now to the distance value.
