VEGA VEGASON 64 Profibus PA - Manual (Page 32)

6.4 Setup procedure
Before starting the actual parameter adjustment of a Profibus PA
sensor, the address setting must first be carried out. You will find a
detailed description in the operating instructions manual of the
indicating and adjustment module or in the online help of PACTware or
DTM.
As VEGASON 64 is a distance measuring instrument, the distance
from the sensor to the product surface is measured. To have the real
product level displayed, an allocation of the measured distance to the
percentage height must be made. To carry out this adjustment, the
distance is entered with full and empty vessel. If these values are not
known, an adjustment with the distance values, e.g. 10 % and 90 % is
also possible. Starting point for these distance specifications is always
the lower side of the flange, with all other versions the lower side of the
transducer.
The actual level is then calculated on the basis of these entered
values. At the same time, the operating range of the sensor is limited
from maximum range to the requested range.
The real product level during this adjustment is not important, because
the min./max. adjustment is always carried out without changing the
product level. These settings can be made ahead of time without the
instrument having to be installed.
In the main menu item "Basic adjustment", the individual submenu
items should be selected one after the other and provided with the
correct parameter values.
Start your parameter adjustment with the following menu items of the
basic adjustment:
