Begin the tank calibration. This procedure results in a level-to-liters or level-to-gallons
table
that enables your monitoring platform
to convert the level readings
the sensor
outputs
into liters/gallons
displayed in the reports you get from the platform.
Alternatively, you can save the table in the sensor’s memory so that it could output
the readings in liters/gallons already. The internal memory of the TD-BLE sensor can store a
tank calibration table of 50 rows in total. Normally, the platform’s capacity is a lot higher.
Besides, it is easier to adjust or correct any mistakes in the table if it is uploaded onto
the platform rather than if it is saved in the sensor’s memory.
To create such a table, you need to fill the tank step-by-step adding the fuel into the
tank portion-by-portion and recording the level-to-liters(/gallons) correlation after each
portion is added using the Tank calibration menu of the app.
Let’s say that you need to do a tank calibration for a tank with a total capacity of 100
liters and do that in 10 portions equal to 10 liters each.
To do so, you need to connect the sensor and tap on the
Tank calibration
button (
Fig.
43
). However, first, make sure that the filtration is set to 0 in the
Settings
menu (
Fig. 44
).
The filtration slows the level calculation down and can increase the time needed to
complete the tank calibration.
