6.4.1 Overview
The following table gives an overview of the basic setup for level measurements. Detailed
information on the parameters can be found in the sections 6.4.2. to 6.4.11.
Step Parameter Set Parameter Remarks s. section
Configuring the sensor
1 LVL N sensor selection
(N = 1 or 2)
input Allocate a sensor to the channel. 6.4.2
sensor selection Specify the type of sensor ("automatic" for FDU9x)
detected only available for "sensor selection" = "automatic";
indicates the detected type of sensor.
2 application parameter tank shape Select the appropriate values for your application 6.4.3
medium property
process conditions
3 empty calibration empty E Specify the distance between the sensor membrane and the minimum level
(0%).
6.4.4
4 full calibration full F Specify the distance between the minimum (0%) and maximum (100%)
level.
6.4.5
blocking distance (BD) Display parameter; the maximum value for the full calibration is:
F
max
= E - BD
5 unit level unit level Select the unit for the level measurement. 6.4.6
level Displays the currently measured level.
distance Displays the currently measured distance between the sensor membrane and
the product level.
