Threshold – This is the percentage of the factory
submerged value that will be considered a submerged
sensor. The default value is 85%.
x Temperature Compensation – The Long Range Depth sensor
compensates for the change in temperature at the top of the
manhole as compared to the bottom when determining a depth
measurement. The values below are default values and should
suffice for most installations. If monitoring in an extremely cold or
hot zone, they may need to be adjusted. If monitoring in the
southern hemisphere, these values should be reversed.
March – Default assumed temperature at the bottom of
manhole in March (winter). The default is 55
o
F (13
o
C).
September – Default assumed temperature at the bottom
of the manhole in September (summer). The default is 73
