Adjustment
4.4 Configuration and parameter
adjustment
No matter whether you set up your
VEGAMET via the keys of the adjustment
module or via a PC with the software VVO,
the procedure is always the same.
Proceed in the following sequence:
- configuration (if not already configured with
a factory setting)
- parameter adjustment.
In this operating instructions manual, the
adjustment steps are described which are
directly carried out on the keys of VEGAMET.
The adjustment via the software VVO is de-
scribed in a separate manual.
Configuration
Configuration means initial assigning or set-
ting functions. VEGAMET requires a (mostly
once) basic co-ordination that determines the
applications and the assignments of the
inputs and outputs. Choices can be made
from existing functions and options. This
procedure is called configuration. The signal
conditioning instruments are delivered with a
configuration which only needs to be
changed in special cases.
The basic configuration includes the following
steps:
1 Configuration measurement loop
• Choose the kind of application (level,
gauge…)
• Choose sensor type (capacitive, hydro-
static…)
• Determine application (standard, level
difference…)
• Determine options (no option, correc-
tions…)
Note:
The measurement loop configuration can only
be modified, if a "Reset to single measure-
ment“ has been carried out previously (under
"Additional functions“ in the extended menu).
If you only want to modify the sensor type,
you first have to carry out "Reset TAG 1“
(under "Additional functions“ in the reduced
menu).
2 Configuration of inputs
• Determine from where your VEGAMET
receives the input data (sensor, other
VEGAMET)
• Enter sensor characteristics values (meas.
range, current range)
3 Configuration of outputs
• All outputs (except fail safe relay) can been
assigned to one sensor or can be switched
off.
After basic configuration, VEGAMET goes
into operating mode and indicates the actual
measured value. The other configurations
should be carried out after the parameter
adjustment.
Parameter adjustment
Parameter adjustment means changing the
values. Signal conditioning instruments have
many parameters, the values of which can be
modified, such as for example, the integration
time of 0 … 600 s. The modification of these
values is called parameter adjustment. The
parameter adjustment does not influence the
configuration. Take note that parameter ad-
justment is only possible after a configuration
has been carried out (e.g. set values of the
current input after the current output has
been assigned).
