8 OPERATION
Activate the QA analog output
b
Set the parameter in the QAMENU-SimCur or SimVol menu to the desired signal
value.
• SimCur for current output
• SimVol for voltage output
Note:
The simulation is automatically deactivated if the supply voltage is interrupted.
Simulating the level
Even if there is no liquid in the container yet, it is possible to select a filling level in the
menu in order to test the sensor configuration. When simulating a level value, all out -
puts on the LFP are set according to the defined configuration. The function should not
be selected until a configuration is complete.
Configuration
b
Set the parameter to the desired filling level as a % in the SimLev menu.
Note:
• The level simulation refers to the probe length and/or container level
(probe offset) if an offset is configured.
• The simulation is only active when there are no error messages.
The simulation is automatically deactivated if the supply voltage is interrupted.
Parameter selection
• SimOff: Off
• Filling level 0%
• Filling level 25%
• Filling level 50%
• Filling level 75%
• Filling level 100%
8.4.7 Configuring the probe length
1. Log in to expert mode; see “8.4.1 Expert mode” .
2. Access the EXPRT-Config-Length menu using the arrow and Set pushbuttons.
3. Enter the probe length in the Length menu. Please note the defined probe length in
Chapter “15 Dimensional drawings” .
Note:
• HiSpd: max. length = 2005 mm, response time < 400 ms
• HiAcc: max. length = 6,005 mm, response time < 2,800 ms
