6.3 Adjustment with medium
You can either carry out the adjustment with
medium or without medium. Adjustment with
medium means that you carry out the adjust-
ment taking the actual level into account. To
carry out an adjustment with medium, it is
necessary to know the percentage values of
the actual vessel filling.
For this procedure, the percentage values for
min. and max. have to be adjusted which
correspond to the actual fillings. The adjust-
ment sequence of the min. and max. value is
unimportant. If you know, for example, that
your filling is actually 80 %, you can enter in
the menu max. adjustment the value "80“.
Later, when your filling is, for example, 10 %,
you enter in the menu min. adjustment the
value "10“.
The bigger the difference between the two
adjustment points, the more precise the
measurement over the whole measuring
curve. An adjustment at 0 % and 100 %
would be ideal. For practical reasons, it is not
always possible to completely empty or fill a
vessel. The distance between the two adjust-
ment points, however, should be at least
10 % of the sensor range.
6.2 Sensor optimization
Like the measurement loop name, the sensor
name can also be modified if you want to give
it another designation. To do this, move to the
menu item "Sensor-Tag…“ (first menu item in
the sensor menu). The procedure is the
same for the modification of the measurement
loop name. The sensor name is saved in the
memory component of the sensor.
When you move to the menu item "Sensor
menu“, a new menu item opens which is
independent of VEGAMET. It is provided by
the connected sensor and has different ad-
justment options (e.g. installation geometry,
meas. environment…) dependent on the
sensor type. The appropriate description is
stated in the operating instructions manual of
the sensor. These data, like the sensor name,
are also saved in the sensor. If at a later date
the sensor is connected to another signal
conditioning instrument, its adjustment data
remain.
Normally, the sensor will have been adapted
to customer-specific conditions, so that modi-
fications in the sensor menu will only be
necessary if the sensor is used for a
measurement other than originally planned.
