How to configure the gauge to give volume readings
User menu functions 1.71, 1.7.2 & 1.7.3
The BM100 A may be calibrated to measure volume by using a 50-line “strapping (calibration)
table”. The shape of the tank decides the number of points to be entered for accurate measurement.
Do not set User menu function 1.3.1 or 1.3.5 to “Volume” until steps 1 to 4 have been completed.
Example procedure 5
• set volume or weight units for calibration
• program up to 50 points (2 in this example) giving the level and filled volume for each point.
