6 Set up the sensor with the indicating and adjustment module
VEGAPULS 61 • Modbus and Levelmaster protocol
41361-EN-121011
Setup: Settings, for example, for medium, application, vessel, adjust-
ment, damping
Display: Language setting, settings for the measured value indication
as well as lighting
Diagnosis: Information, e.g. on the instrument status, pointer, reli-
ability, simulation, echo curve
Further settings: e.g. instrument units, unit SV 2, false signal sup-
pression, linearization, date/time, reset, copy sensor data
Info: Instrument name, hardware and software version, calibration
date, device ID, instrument features
In the main menu point "Setup", the individual submenu points should
be selected subsequently and provided with the correct parameters
to ensure the optimum adjustment of the measurement. The proce-
dure is described in the following.
Each medium has different reflection properties. With liquids, further
interfering factors are fluctuation product surface and foam genera-
tion. With bulk solids, these are dust generation, material cone and
additional echoes from the vessel wall.
To adapt the sensor to these different measuring conditions, the
selection "Liquid" or "Bulk solid" should be made in this menu item.
Through this selection, the sensor is adapted perfectly to the product
and measurement reliability, particularly in products with poor reflec-
tive properties, is considerably increased.
Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your
settings with [OK] and jump to the next menu item with the [ESC] and
the [->] key.
In addition to the medium, also the application, i.e. the measuring site,
can influence the measurement.
With this menu item, the sensor can be adapted to the applications.
The adjustment possibilities depend on the selection "Liquid" or "Bulk
solid" under "Medium".
