1Notes on use
You have various options for accessing the descriptions of instrument functions or how to enter
parameters.
1.1 Using the table of contents to locate a function description
All the functions are listed in the table of contents sorted by function group (e.g. basic setup,
safety settings, etc.). You can access a more detailed description of a function by using a page reference / link.
The table of contents is on ä 3.
1.2 Using the graphic of the function menu to locate a
function description
This guides you step by step from the highest level, the function groups, to the exact function
description you require.
All the available function groups and instrument functions are listed in the table ( ä 13). Select
your required function group or function. You can access an exact description of the function group
or function by using a page reference.
1.3 Using the index of the function menu to locate a
function description
To simplify navigation within the function menu, each function has a position which is shown in
the display. You can access each function via a page reference in the function menu index ( ä 91)
which lists all the function names alphabetically and numerically.

1.4 General structure of the operating menu
The operating menu is made up of two levels:
• Function groups (00, 01, 03, …, 0C, 0D):
The individual operating Selection of the instrument are split up roughly into different function
groups. The function groups that are available include, e.g.: "basic setup", "safety settings",
"output", "display", etc.
• Functions (001, 002, 003, …, 0D8, 0D9):
Each function group consists of one or more functions. The functions perform the actual operation
or parameterisation of the instrument. Numerical values can be entered here and parameters can
be selected and saved. The available functions of the “basic setup (00)” function group include,
e.g.: "tank shape (002)",
"medium property (003)", "process cond. (004)", "empty calibr. (005)", etc.
If, for example, the application of the instrument is to be changed, carry out the following procedure:
1. Select the “basic setup (00)” function group.
2. Select the "tank shape (002)" function (where the existing tank shape is selected).
1.4.1 Identifying the functions
For simple orientation within the function menus ( ä 13), for each function a position is shown
on the display.

1 Function group
2 Function
The first two digits identify the function group:
•basic setup 00
• safety settings 01
• temperature 03
…
The third digit numbers the individual functions within the function group:
•basic setup 00 • tank shape 002
• medium property 003
• process cond. 004
…
Hereafter the position is always given in brackets (e.g. "tank shape" (002)) after the described
function.

1.5.2 Display symbols
The following table describes the symbols that appear on the liquid crystal display:
Symbols Meaning
ALARM_SYMBOL
This alarm symbol appears when the instrument is in an alarm state. If the symbol flashes, this indicates
a warning.
LOCK_SYMBOL
This lock symbol appears when the instrument is locked,i.e. if no input is possible.
COM_SYMBOL
This communication symbol appears when a data transmission via e.g. HART, PFOFIBUS-PA or FOUNDATION Fieldbus is in progress.
SIMULATION_SWITCH_ENABLE
*
This communication symbol appears when simulation in FF is enabled via the DIP switch.

If the level is not proportional to the volume or weight within the set measuring range, you can enter
a linearisation table in order to measure in customer units. The requirements are as follows:
• The 32 (max.) value pairs for the linearisation curve points are known.
• The level values must be given in ascending order. The curve is monotonously increasing.
• The level heights for the first and last points on the linearisation curve correspond to empty and
full calibration respectively.
• The linearisation takes place in the basic setup unit ("distance unit" (0C5)).

Each point (2) in the table is described by a value pair: level (3) and, for example, volume (4). The

11.4 Function "reset" (0A3)
Caution!
A reset sets the instrument back to the factory settings. This can lead to an impairment of the measurement. Generally, you should perform a basic setup again following a reset.
A reset is only necessary:
• if the instrument no longer functions
• if the instrument must be moved from one measuring point to another
• if the instrument is being de-installed /put into storage/installed
Entry ("reset" (0A3)):
• 333 = customer parameters (HART)
• 33333 = customer parameters (PROFIBUS-PA and FOUNDATION Fieldbus)
333 = reset customer parameters for HART
33333 = reset customer parameters for PROFIBUS-PA and FOUNDATION Fieldbus
This reset is recommended whenever an instrument with an unknown 'history' is to be used in an
application:
• The Micropilot is reset to the default values.
• The customer specific tank map is not deleted.
• A linearisation is switched to "linear" although the table values are retained. The table can be
reactivated in the "linearisation" (04) function group.
!
Note!
5-point linearity protocol
The specified measuring accuracy is a typical value. With the production of the 5-point linearity
protocol the measuring system (sensor and electronic) is adjusted exactly to one another and the
measuring accuracy is optimized for the specified range. To realize this, the parameter "zero
distance" is fine adjusted. After a reset the value for the zero distance has to be re-parameterized in
the service menu according to the data on the associated 5-point linearity protocol. Please contact
the Endress+Hauser service.
List of functions that are affected by a reset:
• tank shape (002)
• empty calibr. (005)
• full calibr. (006)
• output on alarm (010)
• output on alarm (011)

14 Signal evaluation
14.1 Envelope curve
The echo of an ultrasonic impulse does not only contain the desired echo from the product surface,
but also interference echoes (e.g. from tank fittings or multiple reflections). In order to identify these
echoes one plots the logarithmic amplitude of the echo versus the time-of-flight of the ultrasonic
impulse. This plot is called envelope curve.
The envelope curve can be displayed in the "envelope curve" (0E) function group (see Page 52).
In the FieldCare the envelope curve may also be displayed in the "envelope" menu:

14.2 Interference echo suppression (tank mapping)
The interference echo suppression of the Prosonic M makes sure that interference echoes are not
interpreted as the level echo by fault.
In order to carry out the interference echo suppression one must record a time-of-flight dependent
threshold (TDT), which is also called the tank map.
All maxima of the envelope curve which are situated below the TDT are discarded by the signal
evaluation procedures.
It is recommended to record the tank map when the vessel is as possible empty. Then, the map will
inclue all echoes except the level echo.
But even, if it is not possible to empty the vessel during the commissioning of the Prosonic M, you
should perform the map. In this case it is recommended to repeat the record of the mapping at a
later time - when the vessel is as possible empty.
The tank map is recorded in the function group "extended calibration" (05). Select the option
"mapping" in the "selection" (050) function.

echoes; the echo with the gretest distance to the FAC
will be evaluated
14 Signal evaluation
The function of the Floating Average Curve (FAC) is similar to the interference echo suppression.
The main difference is, that the tank map is recorded only once whilst the FAC adjusts itself continuously to the changing measuring conditions.
By this procedure changes of the interference echoes (e.g. by build-up) can be compensated for.
In contrast to the tank map, the FAC can only register small interference echoes.
The FAC is always used in the signal evaluation, even if the tank map has been deactivated.
In the envelope curve, the maximum with the largest distance to the FAC is interpreted as the level
echo.

15.1 System error messages
Current error
Errors which the Prosonic M detects during commissioning or operation are displayed:
•In the "measured value" (000) function
•In the "diagnostics" (0A) function group in the "present error" (0A0) function
(only the highest priority error is displayed; in the case of multiple errors, you can scroll between
the different error messages by pressing
Last error The last error is displayed in the "diagnostics" (0A) function group in the "previous error" (0A1) function. This display can be deleted in the "clear last error" (0A2) function.
