6.3 Adjustment with adjustment
module MINICOM
As with the PC, you can also adjust the sen-
sor with the small, detachable adjustment
module MINICOM. The adjustment module is
simply plugged into the sensor or into the
external indicating instrument (optional).
For the adjustment with adjustment module,
all sensor versions (adjustment options), as
with the PC and the adjustment program
VVO, are available. There are some differ-
ences, however, with MINICOM. It is not
possible to enter your own linearisation
curve.
You carry out all adjustment steps with the 6
keys of the adjustment module. A small dis-
play shows you, apart from the measured
value, a short message on the menu item or
the entered value of a menu adjustment.
The volume of information of the small display,
however, cannot be compared with that of the
adjustment program VVO, but you will soon
get used to it and be able to carry out your
adjustments quickly and efficiently with the
small MINICOM.
Setup
The grey scroll bar becomes active. With this
scroll bar you can change the measured
value to any value in the range of
-10 % … 110 % and thereby simulate the
filling or emptying of the vessel. In the input
box of the turquoise window cutout you can
enter any percentage value of filling.
Note on the simulation mode:
One hour after the last simulation adjustment,
the sensor automatically returns to standard
operating mode. The display of measured
value flashes during simulation.
