• MPXI-F6 and MPXI-F7 APG Modbus Sensor Parameters
40401 - Units
Determines the units of measure for the Calculated Reading when Application Type is set to 0, 1, or 7.
1 = Feet
2 = Inches
3 = Meters
For MPXI-F6 and MPXI-F7, this is seen only when using APG Modbus to program the MPXI-F. This setting
does not affect the 4-20 mA output.
40402 - Application Type
Determines the type of Calculated Reading performed by the sensor.
0 = Distance
1 = Level
2 = Standing Cylindrical Tank with or without Hemispherical Bottom
3 = Standing Cylindrical Tank with or without Conical Bottom
4 = Standing Rectangular Tank with or without Chute Bottom
5 = Horizontal Cylindrical Tank with or without Spherical Ends
6 = Spherical Tank
7 = Pounds (Linear Scaling)
8 = N/A
9 = Vertical Oval Tank
10 = Horizontal Oval Tank
11 = Strapping Chart
See MPXI-F Application Type Parameters pages 31-35.
For the MPXI-F6 and MPXI-F7, the 4-20 mA output can be scaled for linear output over distance/level (Appli
-
cation Type 0 or 1) or scaled for linear output over volume (Application Type 2 - 11). When setup in any of
the volumetric application types, the 4-20mA output becomes linear with regards to the calculated volume
(linear mA change per gallon, liter, etc.), rather than the raw distance/level reading.
40403 - Volume Units
Determines the units of measure for the Calculated Reading when Application Type is set to 2 - 6 or 9 -11.
1 = Feet
3
5 = Liters
2 = Million Feet
3
6 = Inches
3
3 = Gallons
7 = Barrels
4 = Meters
3
40404 - Decimal Place
Determines the number of decimal places included in the Calculated Reading(s). For MPXI-F6 and -F7, this is
seen only when using APG Modbus to program the MPXI-F. This setting does not affect the 4-20 mA output.
