6.7 Parameter adjustment/Real value correction
To correct a level measurement, a real value correction can be carried
outwhenacertainlevelisreached.Thisisforexamplenecessaryin

The level measurement can thus be reset to the correct real value.
The level measuring instrument acts as Master and the MINITRAC 31
operates as Slave.
