Maximum Distance to be Measured (H)
The maximum distance to be measured is the greatest distance between the surface of the transducer and the level to be measured.
This is the only parameter that has to be programmed for each application other than distance (however to avoid disturbing effect of
possible multiple echos it is suggested to do this in distance measurement applications too).
Values of the maximum measuring distance will be displayed as below.

The factory programmed, greatest distances (DEFAULT values) which
can be measured
by the units are listed in the table below. For the actual
application the maximum distance
to be measured
i.e. the distance between the sensor and the bottom of the tank should be entered in P04.
To obtain the best accuracy, measure this distance in the empty tank with the DMSP400 and DMSP500 by
using the “GET LEVEL” function (by
double key pressing of UP + DOWN ) provided the bottom is flat. Enter the actual measured value displayed as P04.
