Endress+Hauser Micropilot FMR56 - Operation; Maintenance

Micropilot FMR56, FMR57
8 Endress+Hauser
Output
The Micropilot is configured by entering the empty distance "E" (= zero), the full distance "F" (= span)
and application parameters which automatically adapt the device to the process conditions. For
models with a current output, the factory adjustment for zero point "E" and span "F" is 4 mA and 20
mA. For digital outputs and the display module, the factory adjustment for zero point "E" and span "F"
is 0 % and 100 %.
A linearization function with max. 32 points, based on a table entered either manually or semi-
automatically, can be activated locally or remotely. This function provides a measurement in
engineering units and a linear output signal for spherical and horizontal cylindrical vessels and
vessels with a conical outlet.
