CALIBRATION
This section explains how to set up and calibrate the SmartSonic for accurate measurement monitoring. SmartSonic is
supplied with preprogrammed default settings, making it ready for immediate operation. It is recommended that you check
the Initial Set-up Menu, to verify that the transmitter is set for your Application Type and Measurement Range. Also, you
should replace the default tank height value with the actual tank height (
Pr. 02). When using SmartSonic, the tank height
is calculated as the distance from the surface of the sensor to the bottom of the tank. You should enter this value
whenever tank height is required. (For flow measurement, enter the precise flume height.)
SmartSonic contains eleven Standard Programs, and five Initial Set-up Programs, which enable you to change the default
settings and calibrate SmartSonic as required. These functions are accessed from a functions menu. The functions
Pr.01,
Pr.02, Pr.04, Pr.05, Pr.23, and Pr.24 are the most important to ensure correct usage of your SmartSonic device (with the
addition of
Pr.00 if using the Open Channel Flow software). Function Pr.03 may be used if there are interfering signals.
The remaining functions (
Pr.06, Pr.07, Pr.08, Pr.09, Pr.10, Pr.20, Pr21, and Pr.22) enable you to customize SmartSonic
for your monitoring requirements or to restore factory default settings.
