The advanced transmitter configuration includes settings which can be used to fine tune the
transmitter for special applications. Normally, the standard settings are sufficient.

C.1.1 Distance offset (G)
The Distance Offset is used when hand-dipping is done at a separate nozzle. By setting the
Distance Offset the measured level by the gauge can be adjusted to correspond with the level
value obtained by hand-dipping.
The Distance Offset (G) is the distance between the upper reference point and the flange. (The
flange is referred to as the Transmitter’s Reference Point). The Distance Offset can be used to
specify a reference point at the top of the tank. Set the Distance Offset to zero to identify the
lower side of the device flange as the upper reference point. The Distance Offset is defined as
positive if an upper reference point above the Upper Reference Point is used.
