Filtering
The filtering modes are provided to change how fast the system will respond
to changes. The default settings should be appropriate for most level
applications, however, the delays and windows can be changed to increase or
decrease reaction time and filtering.
MODE DESCRIPTION PARAMETERS EXPLANATION
7 Sample Rate Units = milliseconds
Range = 80 - 9999
Default = 120
8 Samples Units = Samples
Averaged Range = 1 - 50
Default = 20
9 Out-of-Range Units = samples
Range = 1 - 50
Default = 10
10 Filter Window Units =Mode 1
Range = 0 - 20 ft.
Default = 2.00 ft.
11 Loss of Units = seconds
Echo Delay Range = 0 - 9999
Default = 5
Sets the delay between
sensor samples (readings).
Sets the number of samples to
be averaged in the buffer
memory on a first in first out
basis.
Sets the number of out-of range
samples in succession that will
be ignored before the new target
is accepted.
Sets the window of acceptance.
The window is + or - this
distance from the current
reading. If a sample distance is
outside of this window it will be
ignored the number of times set
in mode 9.
Sets the delay in seconds before
the output will show a loss of
echo condition. Allows the
controller to maintain the
current level indication for
temporary loss of echo
conditions. During a loss of
echo condition the controller
will maintain the last reading for
the time frame indicated in
seconds.
