Factory Defaults 
When first installing the Ultra 5, or subsequently moving or using the unit 
on a new application, before proceeding to program the unit for its intended 
application it is recommended that you ensure that all parameters are at their 
default values by completing a Factory Defaults P930, as described in the 
relevant unit type parameter guide. 
 
 
When you first switch Ultra 5 on, it will be reading the distance from the 
face  of  the  transducer  to  the  surface.  It  will  be  indicating  in  metres,  as 
shown on the display. All relays are set OFF. 
The date (P931) and time (P932) in Ultra 5 were set at the factory, but may 
need checking, and amending if,  for  example the application is in a time 
zone other than GMT, see relevant unit Parameter listing for full details.  
 TIP 
In some applications, it is simplest to empty 
the vessel, take a reading from the Ultra 5 for 
distance and then setup the empty level to this 
figure. 
 
Once you are satisfied with the installation, and Ultra 5 is reading what you 
would  expect  in  terms  of  distance  from  the  face  of  the  transducer  to  the 
material  level,  then  you  can  proceed  with  programming,  for  the  intended 
application. It is sensible to program all the required parameters at the same 
time. The system will be then set-up.  
Note that the span is automatically calculated from the empty level, so the 
empty level should be entered first.
