9.3.2 Setting to the medium

Select [MEdI], press [Set] for 5 s.

[nonE] is displayed.
u
Set the requested value:
• [HIGH] for water and water-based media.
• [LOW] for oils and oil-based media.
Note: in case of doubt, carry out an application test to ensure the setting which is best for your medi-
um.

9.3.3 Entering the type of probe used
u
Select [Prob], press [Set] for 5 s.

[nonE] is displayed.
u
Set the requested value:
• [rod] for single probe.
• [COAX] for coaxial probe.
The detection of water and water-based media is possible with the single probe as well as with the co-
axial probe.
The detection of oils and oil-based media is only possible with the coaxial probe. Therefore the value
[COAX] is preset for the parameter [Prob] when setting [MEdI] = [LOW]; the value [rod] is not availa-
ble.
[Prob]
Then the device changes to the operating mode. For further parameter setting the menu can be
opened. The parameters [LEnG], [MEdI] and [Prob] can be accessed and modified just like all other
parameters.

The setting ranges for the switching limits (SP1, rP1, FH1, FL1) depend on the probe length (L). In
general, the following applies:

SP1 / FH1

L - 3
rP1 / FL1
1.0 (3.0)

The values apply if [OFS] = 0. The values in brackets apply to the setting [MEdI] = [LOW] (setting for
the detection of oils and oil-based media).
•
rP1 is always smaller than SP1. If the value for SP1 is reduced to a value ≤ rP1 the position of rP1
also shifts.
•
If rP1 and SP1 are close together (about 3 x step increment), rP1 is changed automatically when
increasing SP1.
•
If there is a greater difference between rP1 and SP1, rP1 maintains the set value even if SP1 is
increased.
