Example 2: Typical setting for reduced output and only two active transducers. Start distance and cell size set to
minimum to be able to measure in a restricted area. Interval set to 30 second.

Comments to example 2: Typical setup if measured close to an obstruction. By using only two transducers the sensor
can be placed close to a wall, platform leg or similar where the two active transducers are facing away from the
obstruction. The limited start distance and cell size also reduce the measured are and make it possible to measure
within a smaller area.
