5. Overview
The CS475, CS476, and CS477 emit short microwave pulses and measure the 
elapsed time between the emission and return of the pulses. The elapsed time 
measurement is used to calculate the distance between the sensor face and the 
target (for example, water, grain, slurry). The distance value can be used to 
determine depth.
