7 Commissioning
When the VS2k-UMB / VS20k-UMB is connected to the power supply a rattling sound must
be heard. It comes from the spider defender which is switched on together with the device in
the first place and again later sporadically in order to deter spiders from attaching their webs
to the sensor.
8 Configuration
Lufft provides a PC software for configuration purposes. It allows the user to set up the
device according to his necessities.
8.1 Factory settings
The VS2k-UMB / VS20k-UMB is supplied with the following settings:
Device ID: ................................... 1

Current output VS2k-UMB .......... 4
– 20 mA corresponding to 0 – 2000 m (linear)

In case several VSx devices are operated in one UMB network, the ID must be changed
since each device requires a unique ID. It makes sense to use ascending IDs starting from 1.
