In this menu item you can select the switching behaviour of the sen-

sor.

You can choose between an 8 - 16 mA characteristics or a 16 - 8 mA

characteristics.

In this menu item you can also define the switching behaviour in case

of fault. You can select if the current output should output 22 mA or

< 3.6 mA in case of fault.

In this menu item you can select which mode the sensor should oper-

ate in.
You can choose between overfill and dry run protection.
The relay outputs of the sensor react accordingly.
Overfill protection = the relay will deenergise (safe condition) when

the max. level is reached.
Dry run protection = the relay will deenergise (safe condition) when

the min. level is reached.
Make sure that you have selected the correct characteristics. See

menu item "Setup/Current output mode".

With this menu item you safeguard the sensor parameters against

unauthorized or unintentional modifications.
To avoid possible errors during parameterization in a non-safe user

environment, a verification procedure is used that makes it possible

to detect parameterization errors reliably. For this, safety-relevant

parameters must be verified before they are stored in the device. In

normal operating condition, the instrument is also locked against

parameter changes through unauthorized access.
