To maintain the function of the device, the lighting is temporarily
switched off if the power supply is insufficient.
Backlight
In the default setting, the lightning is switched off.
The respective min. and max. measured values are saved in the sen-
sor. The values are displayed in the menu item "
Peak values
".

Peak value indicator
When non-contact level sensors are used, the measurement can be
influenced by the respective process conditions. In this menu item,
the measurement reliability of the level echo is displayed as a dB
value. Measurement reliability equals signal strength minus noise. The
higher the value, the more reliable the measurement. A well function-
ing measurement normally has a value > 10 dB.
The instrument status is displayed in this menu item. If no failure is
detected by the sensor, "
OK
" will be displayed. If a failure is detected,
there will be a sensor-specific flashing fault signal, for example
"
E013
". The failure is also displayed in clear text, for example "
No
measured value available
".
Information:
The fault message as well as the clear text indication are also carried
out in the measured value display.
Measurement reliability
Sensor status
With ultrasonic sensors, the "
Echo curve
" represents the signal
strength of the echoes over the measuring range. The unit of signal
strength is "dB". The signal strength enables the jusgement of the
quality of the measurement.
The "
False echo curve
" displays the saved false echoes (see menu
"
Service
") of the empty vessel as signal strength in "dB" over the
measuring range.
Up to 3000 measured values are recorded (depending on the sensor)
when starting a "
Trend curve
". Then the values can be displayed on
a time axis. The oldest measured values are always deleted.
