Recalibration
Switchpoint setting - In case of recalibration or if factory calibration is not applicable
1. Ensure that the probe is uncovered.
The unit will calibrate to an uncovered probe
2. Set switchpoint with potentiometer.
Note: 1 second after stopping to turn the potentiometer, the yellow LED blinks for a few
times, then stops blinking. This allows to identify the position of the potentiometer which
enables more easy service in case external technicians are contacted.
If LED white is off, turn clockwise until LED white is on.
Turn counter clockwise until LED white just stops glowing.
Turn further counter clockwise per chart below:
The stated values assume that the distance of the probe to a metal wall is not smaller than
stated on Probe mounting distances - liquids (Page 17) and Probe mounting distances -
solids (Page 20) and that the Sensguard (see Options and accessories (Page 76)) is not
used. Depending on the application and the required switchpoint, the number of turns
can be varied.
3. Switchpoint setting is finished.
