Setting the Language
The first variable displayed is Language. Language options include English,
Deutsch, Français, and Español. To set the language:
1. Press UP until the display shows the language you want to use.
2. Press ENTER to set the language.
The menu then displays the Output Units option.
Setting the Output Units
Output unit options include level units and volume units. Level units are feet
(feet), inches (inches), meters (meter), centimeters (cm), and millimeters
(millimeter). Volume units are cubic meters (m3), liters (liters), Imperial
Gallons (ImGallons), U. S. Gallons (USGallons), barrels (barrels), cubic feet
(ft3), cubic yards (yd3), and cubic inches (in3).
NOTE
Volume output units should be selected only if tank type (Tnk Typ) Volume
Geometry has been configured using the HART Communicator (refer to
page 3-18). To display accurate volumetric units, the tank dimensions and
volume equations or a strapping table must be configured in APEX memory
using the HART Communicator.
NOTE
If volume is the desired output, the gauge must first be configured in level
units (see “Setting the Reference Gauge Height” on page 3-12).
To configure the unit for volume output, refer to page 3-18.
To set the output units:
1. Press UP until the display shows the output units option you want to use.
2. Press ENTER to set the output units.
The menu then displays the Display Units option.
Setting the Display Units
The integral display has two display lines (see Figure 3-4). The display for the
upper line can be selected via the integral display itself. The lower line scrolls
through a series of options. It is programmed using the HART Communicator
(refer to page 3-18) or is pre-configured at the factory.
Display unit options for the upper line are level,% level, and mA if level units
were selected for output units.
Display unit options for the upper line are volume,% volume, and mA if
volume units were selected for output units.
