5.2.2 Setup
This menu item allows you to adapt the sensor to the different meas-
uring conditions of the media "
Liquid
" or "
Bulk solid
".
The corresponding application is selected in the following menu item
"
Application
".
Through this selection the operating range of the sensor is adapted
to the vessel height. Hence the measurement reliability is increased
considerably under different basic conditions.
Note:
Regardless of this, the min. adjustment must also be carried out (see
following section).
Since the radar sensor is a distance measuring instrument, it is the
distance from the sensor to the medium surface that is measured. To
indicate the actual level, the measured distance must be assigned to
a certain height percentage (min./max. adjustment).
During adjustment, enter the respective measuring distance when the
vessel is full and empty (see the following examples):
