The type of information contained in each reading varies depending on the probe type. Table 2 specifies the data
pattern for various probe types.

* For single float probes, this frame contains product data.
For dual float probes, this frame contains water data.
When calculating Water or Product positions, one must consider whether or not the probe uses a reference
magnet. For probes that use a reference magnet (type 3 and type 6), position can be calculated using the
following formula:
Position = Measured Period/Wire Speed
Where:
Measured Period = the time between pulses in a reading (ms)
Wire Speed = (ms / inch)
Position = distance from internal reference
For probes that do not use a reference magnet (types 1, 2, 4, and 5), position can be calculated using the
following formula:
Position = Measured Period/Wire Speed*2
