TIENet® Model 310 Ex Ultrasonic Level Sensor
Section 2 Installation and Setup for Signature

2.5.2 Measurement Setup From Measurement Setup (Figure 2-13 below), select Level Input
Setup to define the measurement range.
The Minimum Blanking Distance is the shortest distance
from the sensor face (highest expected liquid level). Because of
the dead band, this value can never be less than one foot.
Depending on the elevation of your sensor, this value may be
increased to help ensure that echoes read by the flow meter come
only from the surface of the flow stream, and not off the walls or
sides of the channel.
The Maximum Blanking Distance is the distance between the
sensor face and the bottom of the channel, or zero level. You can
enter a slightly larger value than calculated, if you prefer.
