Vessel shape and dimensions
The device can be configured to suit many common vessel or tank shapes [See Vessel
shape (2.7.2.) (Page 186)]. Whenever possible, use one of those pre-defined selections.
Each shape uses the Empty distance [Empty (2.2.4.)] (Page 170)in its calculations of
volume.
Some tank shapes also require extra dimensions to calculate the volumes. Do not estimate
these values as they must be exact to ensure the accuracy of your volume calculations.
