3.2.3. EXPLANATION SETUP-FUNCTIONS
1 - LEVEL
MEASUREMENT UNIT
11 SETUP - 11 determines the measurement unit for level.
The following units can be selected:
mL - L - m3 - mg - g - kg - ton - GAL - bbl - lb - cf - REV - no unit -
scf - Nm3 - NL - P.
Alteration of the measurement unit will have consequences for operator
and SETUP-level values.
Please note that the Span has to be adapted as well; the calculation is not
done automatically.
DECIMALS
12 This setting determines for level the number of digits following the decimal
point. The following can be selected:
00000 - 1111.1 - 2222.22 - 3333.333
SPAN
13 With the span, the sensor signal is converted to a quantity.
The
span for level is determined on the basis of the selected
measurement unit at 20mA.
Enter the span in whole numbers (decimals are set with SETUP 14).
The more accurate the span, the more accurate the functioning of the
system will be.
Example 1 Calculating the span for level
Let us assume that the sensor generates 20mA at a level
of 2,481.3 Liters, the selected unit is "Liters".
The span is 2481.3
Enter for
SETUP
- 13: "24813" and for
SETUP
- 14 -
decimals span "1".
Example 2 Calculating the span for level
Let us assume that the sensor generates 20mA at a level
of 652.31 USGAL, the selected unit is USG.
The span is 652.31. Enter for SETUP - 13: "652.31 and
for SETUP - 14 "2".
DECIMALS SPAN
14 This setting determines the number of decimals for Span
(SETUP 13). The following can be selected:
0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6
OFFSET
15 Enter here the "not measured" quantity which is below the sensor, in case
a pressure transducer e.g. is used to measure the quantity.
A negative offset can be entered by pressing the middle and right button
simultaneously.
