21 Damping Rate
Factory Set = 2
This option determines the maximum rate at which the unit will respond to an increase/decrease in
level.
Option
Description
1 = 0.1m/min
Responds to changes to a max. 0.1m/min
2 = 0.5m/min
Responds to changes to a max. 0.5m/min
3 = 2m/min
Responds to changes to a max. 2m/min
4 = 10m/min
Responds to changes to a max. 10m/min
22 Detection Threshold Voltage
Factory Set = 7
This option determines detectable size of return echo. This is useful when the first return echo is
needed in condition where small objects creating various kinds of return echoes exist. In case the
set value is high, it can be stronger to the noise, but may not be able to detect small echoes. The 7
is equal to 0.7V. The table below shows the equivalent voltage to each value
No.

23 Output Power
Factory Set = 2
This option is used to set the power output from the transducer to suit varying applications.. By
reducing the power emitted the beam angle will be effectively reduced and can be applied as
detailed below:
Option
Description
1 = Low Power
For use on short range applications
2 = Normal Power
For use in normal conditions
3 = High Power
For use in outdoor applications, long range measurement
4 = Maximum Power
For use in arduous applications where conditions are dusty, steamy or
turbulent.
