be done with the lowest possible level so that all potential interfering 

reflections can be detected.
Proceed as follows:

Enter the actual distance from the sensor to the product surface.

All interfering signals in this section are detected by the sensor and 

stored.

Note:

Check the distance to the product surface, because if an incorrect 

(too large) value is entered, the existing level will be saved as a false 

echo. The filling level would then no longer be detectable in this area.
If a false signal suppression has already been created in the sensor, 

the following menu window appears when selecting "

False signal 

suppression

":

The instrument carries out an automatic false signal suppression 

as soon as the probe is uncovered. The false signal suppression is 

always updated.
The menu item "

Delete

" is used to completely delete an already cre-

ated false signal suppression. This is useful if the saved false signal 

suppression no longer matches the metrological conditions in the 

vessel.

A linearization is necessary for all vessels in which the vessel volume 

does not increase linearly with the level - e.g. a horizontal cylindri-

cal or spherical tank, when the indication or output of the volume is 

required. Corresponding linearization curves are preprogrammed 

for these vessels. They represent the correlation between the level 

percentage and vessel volume.
The linearization applies to the measured value indication and the 

current output. By activating the appropriate curve, the volume per-

centage of the vessel is displayed correctly. If the volume should not 

be displayed in percent but e.g. in l or kg, a scaling can be also set in 

the menu item "

Display

".
