Operation
Parameter changes from the tool are made off-line while the device is operating. The changes are
downloaded by first setting MODE_BLK = OOS then pressing the WRITE CHANGES button. Press

Configuration parameters
The Sensor block also contains the configuration parameters, which are used to commission and
calibrate the instrument. They are identical to the functions of the operating menu, except for the
service parameters which are not accessible on the bus. Thus, the calibration procedure via the
display module (

A complete list of the configuration parameters can be found in the "BA291F - Description of
Instrument Functions".
