7 Disturbance Echo Handling
Pro Setup offers you powerful tools to handle disturbing echoes.
The False Echo tab displays a list of echoes detected by the Pro
transmitter. To optimize measurement performance you can
register false echoes which are due to disturbing objects in the
tank like beams, agitators and heating coils.
The Spectra-Threshold tab shows the amplitude of the meas-
ured signal along the tank. This diagram is often used to obtain
an overview of the conditions in the tank. You can use this dia-
gram to set a general Amplitude Threshold level in order to
filter out disturbing noise. You can also design an Amplitude
Threshold which is a function of distance from the transmitter
to the tank bottom.
