8 OPERATION
Measures in the event of a poor signal:
• Check the installation conditions, see “5.1 Installation conditions”
• Free the probe from deposits
• Perform empty adjustment, see “8.5.4 Performing empty adjustment”
SigQu3
Characteristic for signal noise and electromagnetic interference, see “11 Trouble-
shooting”.
• Value range: 0 to 100%
• Good signal: > 75%
• Poor signal: < 50%
Check this value if the level value emits a signal noise or is unstable.
Measures in the event of a poor signal:
• Activate the filter, see “8.5.8 Filtering measured values”
• Improve filtering
• Remove possible EMC interferences
SigQu4
Characteristic for the quality of the probe in the empty state.
• Value range: 0 to 100%
• Good signal: > 50%
Measures in the event of a poor signal:
• Check the installation conditions, see “5.1 Installation conditions”
• Free the probe from deposits
• Perform empty adjustment, see “8.5.4 Performing empty adjustment”
SigQua
Summarizes the evaluation of SigQu1 – SigQu4 and indicates the measurement
quality. This characteristic is only visible via the User role.
8.5.11 Setting the offset
This setting makes it possible to indicate the level value on the display in relation to
the tank bottom instead of the end of the probe. The actual container level is then
indicated on the display.
Configuration
1. Log in to Exprt mode, see “8.2.2 Exprt mode”.
2. Enter the required value in the CONFIG / OFFSET menu and confirm with Set. Pos-
sible values are 0 to 3,000 mm.
Note:
All parameters related to the level (e.g., SP/RP) are adapted according to the offset
setting.
