Fig. 30: Set damping
In this menu item you can adjust the damping of the sensor with filter
selection "
Manual
". With it you can suppress fluctuations in the meas-
ured value indication, caused e.g. by an agitated product surface.
This time can be between 1 and 1200 seconds. Keep in mind that
the reaction time will increase and the instrument will react to quick
level changes with a delay. Generally, a time setting of approximately
60 seconds is sufficient to smooth the measured value indication.
With the setting "Automatic", the instrument itself calculates a suitable
damping on the basis of the adjustment and the measured value
changes. This setting is particularly suitable for application where fast
and slow level changes occur.
