GLX-RSS-2-300 WL Non-Contact Flow Meter
Level active zone parameters
This parameter limits the operational range of the instrument. The instrument will detect water level only
within the range set by the
Active zone min.
and
Active zone max.
parameters. This parameter is the
best way to filter unwanted radar reflections from other structures and objects that are present on the
monitoring site, which could cause false instrument readings.
Active zone min.
- It is strongly recommended to set the
Active zone min.
value to the minimum possible
distance between the water and the instrument at the specific monitoring site.
Active zone max.
- It is strongly recommended to set the
Active zone max.
value to the maximum
possible distance between the water and the instrument at the specific monitoring site. Typically, this is
the distance between the instrument and the lowest point in the channel.
Level sensor height
The height of the instrument needs to be set above the water zero-level “gauge zero”. The instrument
will output relative measurement of the actual water level based on its height above the water zero-
level. Example: if the instrument is mounted exactly 5 metres above the gauge zero level, then this
parameter should be set to 5 metres. Then, if the instrument measures that the distance between the
instrument and the water is 4 metres, it will report that the water level is 1 metre, because the water is
1 metre above the gauge-zero level. For user convenience, this parameter can also be indirectly set by
inputting the current staff gauge reading.
