Filters 
The following two parameters can be used to filter out unwanted changes of 
level caused by a ‘rippled’ or agitated surface. 
P880 Gate Mode 
This  parameter  determines  the  operation  of  the  gate  that  is  established 
around the echo being processed and is used to track the echoes movement 
and update the level measurement indication on the display. Please consult 
Pulsar for further information and assistance on changing the value of this 
parameter, Default = 0 (Fixed) 
P881Fixed Distance 
This parameter determines the width of gate to be used in tracking an echo 
and  under  normal  circumstances  will  not  require  changing,  but  it  can  be 
increased in the cases where the surface is moving extremely fast (in excess 
of 10m/min) to ensure smooth processing of the changing level. 
 P882 Process Filter 
This parameter determines the number of ‘cycles’ that will be taken before a 
change in level is processed and the display updated. 
 
P884 Peak Percentage 
When P102 = 2 (Solids), this parameter can be used to determine the point 
at  which  the  measurement  is  taken,  within  the  established  gate  of  the 
selected echo, in order to compensate for any error that maybe caused by 
“angles of repose” presented by the way the material settles. Please consult 
Pulsar, for further information and assistance on changing the value of this 
parameter.
