Description Selection of the GPC mode
Options • Off
The gas phase compensation is deactivated.
• On
This option can only be selected for probes with reference echo. The gas phase
compensation is calculated from the position of this reference echo. The displayed
envelope curve does already contain the correction.
• Without correction
This option can only be selected for probes with reference echo.The correction factor is
calculated from the reference echo but not applied to the measurement.
This option is only used for diagnostic purposes and should not be used for normal
applications. The envelope curve is displayed without the correction.
• External correction
This option can only be selected for devices with PROFIBUS PA or FOUNDATION
Fieldbus. The device receives the externally measured pressure through an AO block and
uses it together with the gas phase compensation factor F to calculate the gas phase
compensation. The displayed envelope curve does already contain the correction.
• Const. GPC factor
The correction factor is a constant defined by the user. A reference echo or an externally
measured pressure are not needed. The displayed envelope curve does already contain
the correction.
