Description
1
distance (default)
The distance between sensor and snow surface is returned.
2
level
The level is returned (distance between ground and snow surface)
D-F-C
IOUT1, 4-20 mA span
usb-iout1-span
Defines the output range of the 4-20 mA signal of IOUT1. The span should cover the expected range
of the level or distance, respectively.
EXAMPLE
Minimum level: 0 cm
Maximum expected level: 400 cm
This gives an offset of 0 cm and a level span of 400 cm. To interpret the output
more easily select a span value of 480 cm; thus, a current of 1 mA corresponds
to a level of 30 cm.

Default
Units
-9ˈ999ˈ999…99ˈ999ˈ999

D-F-D
IOUT1, 4 mA value
ush-iout1-4ma-value
Defines the minimum level/distance that corresponds to the 4 mA current output. For snow depth
this value is usually zero.
