P062 Offset Reading

Adds the specified value to the level reading, usually to reference the reading to sea level

or another datum level.

The operation of the device is not affected by the Offset Reading. This value is used for
display purposes only. All control measurements are still referenced to Empty.

Failsafe (P070 to P072)

As preset, in the event of a measurement or technical difficulty, the SITRANS LU01 holds
the Reading, Bar Graph, mA outputs, and relays at their last known values.

To operate process control equipment under these conditions, alter the following
parameters as required.

P070 Failsafe Timer

The time for invalid measurements to elapse before Failsafe State activates.

In the RUN mode, when a difficulty first occurs, the Reading, Bar Graph, relay status, and
mA outputs are held at last known values and the Failsafe Timer is activated.

When a valid measurement is made before the timer expires, the SITRANS LU01
advances to the new material level (if changed) as normal (per Measurement Response,
P003) and the timer resets.
