Empty calibration (= zero point)

1. Setup → Device tag
Enter a unique name for the measuring point to identify the device quickly within
the plant.
2. Setup → Distance unit
Used for the basic calibration (Empty / Full).
3. Setup → Bin type
Optimizes the signal filters for the respective bin type. Note: 'Workbench test'
deactivates all filters. This option should exclusively be used for tests.
4. Setup → Medium group
Specify media group ("aqueous": DK>4 or "other": DK>1.9)
5. Setup → Empty calibration
Specify empty distance E (distance from reference point R to 0% mark).Setup
→ Advanced setup → Level → Tank/silo heightIf the parametrized measuring range
(Empty calibration) differs significantly from the tank or silo height, it is
recommended to enter the tank or silo height in this parameter. Example:
Continuous level monitoring in the upper third of a tank or silo. Note: For tanks
with conical outlet, this parameter should not be changed as in this type of
applications 'Empty calibration' is usually not << the tank or silo height.
