40413 - Filter Window (Factory Calibrated)
Determines the physical range (0 - 10,364 mm) of qualified received signals, based on the current raw
reading. Signals beyond the +/- Filter Window range of the current reading will not qualify unless the
average moves. Signals outside the extents of the Filter Window are written to the Out of Range samples
buffer (Holding Register 40414). See Figure 3.1.

40414 - Out of Range Samples (Factory Calibrated)
Sets the number of consecutive samples outside the Filter Window (Holding Register 40413) necessary to
automatically adjust the current reading and move the Filter Window.
40415 - Sample Rate (Factory Calibrated)
Sets the update rate of the sensor (between 50 - 1000 ms). Shorter time delays allow for quicker sensor
response times to changing levels. Typical setting is 200 ms. Settings under 200 ms are not recommended.
40416 - Multiplier (Factory Calibrated)
Calibrates the distance reading span. The Multiplier is shown by the values 1 - 1999, but these values are
understood to represent 0.001 - 1.999. The default of 1000 (i.e. 1.000) is used for most applications.
