Configuration

(with WebCal®)

Step Six

With EchoPro

®

connected to your computer, open the WebCal

®

* software by clicking on the WebCal

®

icon.

Follow steps 3-6 to configure the transmitter. Click “Help” in the lower right hand corner and open the help
menu of WebCal

®

for instructions on WebCal

®

. If you need additional assistance using WebCal

®

, please

contact a Flowline applications engineer at (562) 598-3015.

Note:

For complete information on the WebCal

®

software, please refer to the WebCal

®

manual located at .flowline.com/webcal-software/.

STEP 3 - SENSOR CONFIGURATION:

Configures the relays in terms of pump/valve operations and level alarms as well as the setting fail-safe for

relays and signal output.

Note: When configuring EchoPro

®

, choose

either the WebCal

®

or Push Button method.

Either method will accomplish the goal of
sensor configuration. Changes to the
configuration can be made using the alternative
method. When beginning with one method, it
is recommended to complete the configuration
before using the other method to make any
adjustments.
