7.4 Parameter adjustment - Summation Slave

To measure the level in very high vessels, multiple instruments can be

cascaded.
Cascading means that two or several instruments are connected

which can together cover a longer measuring range.
The instrument acts as Master and all other instruments operate as

Slaves.
The pulse rates of all instruments are summed in the Master instru-

ment and converted into a common signal.
First of all, define the function of the Slave instruments before you

define the Master instrument. The Master instrument can thus imme-

diately recognize the connected Slaves.
For this, the Slave instruments must be defined as "Summation

Slave". Select under the menu item "Setup/Application" the function

"Summation Slave".
The address setting (MGC) on the Slave instruments can be freely

selected. Only the address "0 - 0" is reserved for the Master instru-

ment.
The Master instrument must have the function "Level". For this

purpose, select under the menu item "Setup/Application" the function

"Level".

Set the address setting (MGC) on the Master instrument to "0 - 0".
You have to enter the addresses of the Slave instruments in the list of

the Master instrument. This function is not possible in the supply and
