Menu Reference

B Menu

Accessible by pressing the

B

key. The “B” menu adjusts the B

setpoint level in the selected units, which defines the lower limit of
the automatic fill function control band. If the FILL mode is set to
AUTO, the B setpoint functions as the lower limit of the level
control band, and thereby initiates a fill cycle when the level falls
below the setpoint.

The B setpoint may be set between 0.0% to 100.0%, but must be
less than the A setpoint. The default setting is 40.0%.

Note

Setting B to 0.0% will prevent initiation of an autofill cycle.

4.3.6

RATE Menu

Accessible by pressing the

RATE

key. The RATE menu adjusts the

RATE alarm in the selected units per minute. The RATE alarm
applies to both fill and loss usage estimates. If the absolute value of
the usage estimate exceeds the RATE alarm limit, then an alarm
symbol appears to the right of the usage estimate in the default
display and the audible alarm sounds if enabled.

The RATE alarm may be set up to 9,999.9% per minute. A value of
zero disables the RATE alarm for the associated channel. The
default value is zero.

4.3.7

FILL Menu in Normal Mode

The FILL menu is accessible by pressing the

FILL

key. The FILL menu, if

the instrument is in the normal controller mode, provides three menu
screens for the selected channel, accessible by pressing the

MENU

key, for

setting the fill mode, fill timeout, and fill inhibit.
