Output damping
The output damping is set in the factory at 1 s and affects the speed at which the
current output responds to a change in level. When there is a sudden jump from
empty to full in the vessel, after 1 s the current display reaches 63% or 14.08 mA of
the set point (1*output damping). After 5 s (5*output damping) it reaches 99 % or
19.84 mA. If a larger output damping is set, then these display times are
correspondingly longer.
The output damping can be selected between the range 0 and 40 s. For liquids, the
turbulence can cause the display to be unstable. Increasing the output damping with
the handheld terminal cancels this effect.
