Adjustment with SIMATIC PDM adjust-
ment program
To adjust all essential functions of the VEGA
sensor with the adjustment station SIMATIC
PDM from Siemens, a so-called EDD is re-
quired. Without this EDD, only the basic func-
tions such as min./max. wet adjustment or
integration time can be adjusted with the
PDM adjustment program. Further important
adjustment functions, such as the input of the
meas. environment or a false echo storage
are not available without EDD. After integra-
tion of the EDD files in the Simatic PDM ad-
justment software, all important adjustment
functions are accessible. If it is not at hand,
the obligatory GSD (instrument master file)
as well as the EDD (Electronic Device De-
scription) necessary for PDM can be
downloaded from the VEGA homepage
(www.vega.com).
