OPERATION
With Quick Start parameter alteration complete, the DPL+ may be put into operation. (If APPLICATION or
ENHANCEMENT PARAMETERS are altered, OPERATION is altered accordingly from that indicated).
DISPLAY
In the RUN mode, the following values and indicators may be observed.
Note that many indicators are specific to certain operating conditions and therefore,
all indicators are not
displayed at any given time.
Transducer the current display pertains to a transducer measurement.

Lo Alarm indicates level has fallen below 20% (and not yet risen above 25%).
Filling Indicator indicates the vessel is filling.
Emptying Indicator indicates the vessel is emptying.
Bar Graph indicates the
absolute
(always a positive value) material level from 0 to 100%.
Data Out indicates the DPL+ is transmitting data to the Peripheral Communications terminals.
Scanning Indicators indicate the Point Number scanned (independent from the Point Number display).
Auxiliary Reading as selected by the keypad (terminal numbers if transducer or TS-3 is wired wrong).
Relay Number indicates the relays programmed for operation.
Relay Status indicates the relay is de-energized (alarm is activated).
Normal Operation indicates operating conditions are good and the Reading is reliable.
