3.3.2 Engineering hints
Orientation
• Recommended distance (1) wall – outer edge of nozzle: ~1/6 of tank diameter.
Nevertheless the device should not be installed closer than 30 cm (12“) to the tankwall.
• Not in the centre (3), interference can cause signal loss.
• Not above the fill stream (4).
• It is recommended to use a weather protection cover (2) in order to protect the transmitter from direct sun or rain. Assembly and disassembly is simply done by means of a tension clamp (→ Chap. 8 on Page 69).
L00-FMR2xxxx-17-00-00-xx-006
Tank installations
• Avoid any installations (1), like limit switches, temperature sensors, etc., inside the signal beam (refer to beam angle see "Beam angle" on Page 16).
• Symmetrical installations (2), i.e. vacuum rings, heating coils, baffles, etc., can also interfere with the measurement.
Optimization options
• Antenna size: the bigger the antenna, the smaller the beam angle, the less interference echoes.
• Mapping: the measurement can be optimized by means of electronic suppression of interference echoes.
• Antenna alignment: refer to "optimum mounting position"
• Stilling well: a stilling well can always be used to avoid interference.
• Metallic screens (3) mounted at a slope spread the radar signals and can, therefore, reduce interference echoes.
Please contact Endress+Hauser for further information.

Measurement in a plastic tank
If the outer wall of the tank is made of a non-conductive material (e.g. GRP), microwaves can also be reflected off interfering installations outside the signal beam (e.g. metallic pipes (1), ladders (2), grates (3), …). Therefore, there should be no such interfering installations in the signal beam.

Beam angle
The beam angle is defined as the angle a where the energy density of the radar waves reaches half the value of the maximum energy density (3dB-width). Microwaves are also emitted outside the signal beam and can be reflected off interfering installations. Beam diameter W as function of antenna type (beam angle α) and measuring distance D:

Measuring conditions
L00-FMR2xxxx-17-00-00-de-017
• The measuring range begins, where the beam hits the tank bottom. Particularly with dish bottoms or conical outlets the level cannot be detected below this point.
• In case of media with a low dielectric constant (groups A and B), the tank bottom can be visible through the medium at low levels (low height C). Reduced accuracy has to be expected in this range. If this is not acceptable, we recommend positioning the zero point at a distance C (see Fig.) above the tank bottom in these applications.
• In principle it is possible to measure up to the tip of the antenna with FMR230/231/240. However, due to considerations regarding corrosion and build-up, the end of the measuring range should not be chosen any closer than A (see Fig.) to the tip of the antenna. For FMR244/245, the end of measuring range should not be chosen closer than A (see Fig.) to the tip of the antenna, especially if there is development of condensate.
• The smallest possible measuring range B depends on the antenna version (see Fig.).
• The tank diameter should be greater than D (see Fig.), the tank height at least H (see Fig.).
Note!
• In case of boiling surfaces, bubbling or tendency for foaming, use FMR230 or FMR231. Depending on its consistence, foam can either absorb microwaves or reflect them off the foam surface. Measurement is possible under certain conditions.
• In case of heavy steam development or condensate the max. measuring range of FMR240 may decrease depending on density, temperature and composition of the steam → use FMR230 or FMR231.
• For the measurement of absorbing gases such as ammonia NH
3
or some fluorocarbons
1))
,
please use FMR230 in a stilling well.
1) Affected compounds are e.g. R134a, R227, Dymel 152a.

Measuring range
The usable measuring range depends on the size of the antenna, the reflectivity of the medium, the mounting location and eventual interference reflections.
The maximum configurable range is:
• 20 m (65 ft) for Micropilot M FMR23x,
• 20 m (65 ft) for Micropilot M FMR24x, – 40 m (131 ft) for Micropilot M FMR24x with additional option D (E), see "ordering
information",
– 70 M (229 ft) for Micropilot M FMR24x with additional option F (G), see "ordering
information",
• 70 m (229 ft) for Micropilot M FMR250 (further informations see TI390F/00/en).
The following tables describe the groups of media as well as the achievable measuring range as a function of application and media group. If the dielectric constant of a medium is unknown, it is recommended to assume media group B to ensure a reliable measurement.

4.2 Connecting the measuring unit
Supply voltage
The following values are the voltages across the terminals directly at the instrument:
Current consumption
The current consumption approx 15 mA for the range of voltages given above.
Overvoltage protector
The level transmitter Micropilot M with T12-housing (housing version "D", see ordering information) is equipped with an internal overvoltage protector (600 V surge arrester) according to DIN EN 60079-14 or IEC 60060-1 (impulse current test 8/20 μs, Î = 10 kA, 10 pulses). Connect the metallic housing of the Micropilot M to the tank wall or screen directly with an electrically conductive lead to ensure reliable potential matching.
4.3 Recommended connection
For maximum EMC protection please observe the following points:
• The external ground terminal on the transmitter must be connected to ground.
• The continuity of the cable screening between tapping points must be ensured.
• If potential equalisation is present between the individual grounding points, ground the screening at each cable end or connect it to the device housing (as short as possible).
• If there are large differences in potential between grounding points, the grounding should run via a capacitor that is suitable for high frequency use (e.g. ceramic 10 nF/250 V&).
"
Caution! Applications, which are subject to the explosion prevention, permit only under special conditions the repeated grounding of the protective screen , see to EN 60 079-14..
4.4 Degree of protection
• with closed housing: IP65, NEMA4X
• with open housing: IP20, NEMA1 (also ingress protection of the display)
• antenna: IP68 (NEMA6P)
4.5 Post-connection check
After wiring the measuring instrument, perform the following checks:
• Is the terminal allocation correct (→ Page 23 and Page 25)?
• Is the cable gland tight?
• If available: Is the FOUNDATION Fieldbus connector screwed tight?
• Is the housing cover screwed tight?
• If auxiliary power is available: Is the instrument ready for operation and does the liquid crystal display show any value?

5.2.4 The operating menu
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 options 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).
Identifying the functions
For simple orientation within the function menus (see Page 96 ff.), for each function a position is shown on the display.
L00-FMRxxxxx-07-00-00-en-005
The first two digits identify the function group:
The third digit numbers the individual functions within the function group:
Hereafter the position is always given in brackets (e.g. "tank shape" (002)) after the described function.

Note! If bypass or stilling well was selected in the "tank shape" (002) function, the pipe diameter is requested in the following step.
In principle, it is possible to measure up to the tip of the antenna. However, due to considerations regarding corrosion and build-up, the end of the measuring range should not be chosen any closer than 50 mm (2”) to the tip of the antenna.

Function "pipe diameter" (007)
This function is used to enter the pipe diameter of the stilling well or bypass pipe.
L00-FMR2xxxx-14-00-00-en-011
Microwaves propagate more slowly in pipes than in free space. This effect depends on the inside diameter of the pipe and is automatically taken into account by the Micropilot. It is only necessary to enter the pipe diameter for applications in a bypass or stilling well.

The distance measured from the reference point to the product surface and the level calculated with the aid of the empty adjustment are displayed. Check whether the values correspond to the actual level or the actual distance. The following cases can occur:
• Distance correct − level correct → continue with the next function, "check distance" (051)
• Distance correct − level incorrect → Check "empty calibr." (005)
• Distance incorrect − level incorrect → continue with the next function, "check distance" (051)
Function "check distance" (051)
This function triggers the mapping of interference echoes. To do so, the measured distance must be compared with the actual distance to the product surface. The following options are available for selection:
Selection:
•distance = ok
• dist. too small
• dist. too big
• dist. unknown
• manual

• mapping is carried out up to the currently measured echo
• The range to be suppressed is suggested in the "range of mapping" (052) function Anyway, it is wise to carry out a mapping even in this case.
dist. too small
• At the moment, an interference is being evaluated
• Therefore, a mapping is carried out including the presently measured echoes

dist. unknown
If the actual distance is not known, no mapping can be carried out.
manual
A mapping is also possible by manual entry of the range to be suppressed. This entry is made in the "range of mapping" (052) function.
"
Caution! The range of mapping must end 0.5 m (20") before the echo of the actual level. For an empty tank, do not enter E, but E – 0.5 m (20"). If a mapping already exists, it is overwriten up to the distance specified in "range of mapping" (052). Beyond this value the existing mapping remains unchanged.
Function "range of mapping" (052)
This function displays the suggested range of mapping. The reference point is always the reference point of the measurement (). This value can be edited by the operator. For manual mapping, the default value is 0 m.
Function "start mapping" (053)
This function is used to start the interference echo mapping up to the distance given in "range of mapping" (052).
Selection:
• off → no mapping is carried out
•on → mapping is started
During the mapping process the message "record mapping" is displayed.

6.4.3 Envelope curve
After the basic setup, an evaluation of the measurement with the aid of the envelope curve ("envelope curve" (0E) function group) is recommended.
Function "plot settings" (0E1)
Select which information will be displayed in the LCD:
• envelope curve
• env.curve+FAC (on FAC see BA221F)
• env.curve+cust.map (i.e. customer tank map is also displayed)
Function "recording curve" (0E2)
This function defines whether the envelope curve is read as a
• single curve
or
• cyclic.
!
Note! If the cyclical envelope curve is active in the display, the measured value is refreshed in a slower cycle time. It is therefore recommended to exit the envelope curve display after optimising the measuring point.
!
Note! An orientation of the Micropilot can help to optimise measurement in applications with very weak level echos or strong interference echos by increasing the useful echo/reducing the interference echo (see "Orientation of the Micropilot" on Page 79).

6.6 Commissioning with a FOUNDATION Fieldbus configuration tool
!
Note! For commissioning of the device with a FOUNDATION Fieldbus configuration tool you need to know the DEVICE_ID, which consists of the following parts:
whereby:
6.6.1 Fist setup
1. Open the configuration tool and load the Device Descriptions (*.ffo, *.sym and - if required by
the tool - *.cff). Ensure you use the correct files (see chapter 5.4).
2. The first time it is connected, the device reports as follows:
FMR24x-FF-in-NIConfig
3. Identify the device using the DEVICE_ID and assign the desired field device tag name
(PD_TAG). Factory setting: PD_TAG = E+H_MICROPILOT_M_XXXXXXXX
Device_ID = 452B48100F-XXXXXXXX
452B48 ID code for Endress+Hauser
100F ID code for Micropilot M
XXXXXXXX Device serial number, as printed on the nameplate

6.6.2 Parametrization of the Resource Block (Start Index: 400)
1. Enter the desired block name (optional). Factory setting: RESOURCE_XXXXXXXX
2. Opern the Resource Block
3. On delivery, write protection is disabled so that you can access the write parameters via FOUNDATION Fieldbus. Check this status by the parameter WRITE_LOCK: – Write protectin activated: WRITE_LOCK = LOCKED – Write protection deactivated: WRITE_LOCK = NOT LOCKED Deactivate the write protection if necessary, see section 6.2.1.
4. Set the operating mode to AUTO in the parameter group MODE_BLK (parameter TARGET).
6.6.3 Parametrization of the Sensor Block (Start Index: 2000)
1. Enter the desired block name (optional) Factory setting: SENSOR_BLOCK_XXXXXXXX
2. Open the Sensor Block. The following display appears:
FMR2xx-FF-Sensorblock-in-NIConfig
!
Hinweis! There are two possibilities to edit the parameters of the block:
• A parameter from the list can be opened for editing by a double click.
• You can open one of the FOUNDATION Fieldbus methods. Each method guides you
automatically through a number of parameters which are required for a specific configuration task. The following sections describe the parametrization by the "basic setup" method.
3. Open the FOUNDATION Fieldbus method "basic setup":
Page 64
Commissioning Micropilot M FMR231 with FOUNDATION Fieldbus
64 Endress+Hauser
FMR2xx-FF-Methode-in-NIConfig
4. The method contains the following parameters3): a. Application parameters (see section 6.4.2)
– PARTANKSHAPE (tank shape) – PARMEDIUMCONDITION (medium property) – PARPROCESSCONDITION (process condition)
b. Empty and full calibration (see section 6.4.3)
– PAREMPTYCALIBRATION (empty calibration) – PARFULlCALIBRATION (full calibration)
c. Interference echo suppression (see section 6.4.4)
– PARCHECKDISTANCE (check distance) – PARSUPPRESSIONDISTANCE (range of mapping) – PARSTARTMAPPINGRECORD (start maping) – PARPRESMAPRANGE (pres. map. dist.) – PARCUSTTANKMAP (cust. tank map)
5. Set the operating mode to AUTO in the parameter group MODE_BLK (parameter TARGET). Otherwise the measured value can not be processed correctly by the connected Analog Input Block.
6. If measuring errors occur or if the measuring value seems unreliable, it is advisable to check the quality of the measurement by the envelope curve display. This can be done in two different ways: – by the display and operating module VU331 (see section 6.4.5) – by an Endress+Hauser operating program (see section 6.5.1)
3) In the FOUNDATION Fieldbus configuration tool you can select from two types of parameter display:
- parameter names (e.g. "PARTANKSHAPE")
- label texts (e.g. "tank shape")
Page 65

6.6.4 Parametrization of the Analog Input Blocks
Prosonic M has two Analog Input Blocks that can be assigned to the various process variables. The following descripiton provides an example for the Analog Input Block 1 (Start Index 500).
1. Enter the desired block name (optional). Factory setting: ANALOG_INPUT_1_XXXXXXXX
2. Open the Analog Input Block.
3. Set the operating mode to OOS (Out of Service) in the parameter group MODE_BLK (parameter TARGET).
4. Using the parameter CHANNEL select the process variable that is to be used as the input value for the function block algorithm (scaling and limit value monitoring). The following settings are possible: –CHANNEL = 1: level – CHANNEL = 2: distance
5. In the parameter gorup XD_SCALE select the desired engineering unit and the block input range (measuring range) for the process variable in question (see the example below).
"
Caution! Make sure that the selected unit is suitable for the measurement variable of the selected process variable. Otherwies the parameter BLOCK_ERROR will display the error message "Block Configuration Error" and the block operating mode cannot be set to AUTO.
6. In the L_TYPE prameter, select the mode of linearization for the input variable (Direct, Indirect, Indirect Sq Root). For details refer to section 11.7 in the Appendix.
"
Caution! Note that with the type of linearization "Direct" the configuration of the parameter group OUT_SCALE must agree with the configuration of the parameter group XD_SCALE. Otherwise the block operating mode cannot be set to AUTO. Such incorrect configuration is indicated in the parameter BLOCK_ERROR by the "Block Configuration Error" message.
Example:
• The measuring range of the sensor is 0 to 10 m.
• The output range to the automation system should be 0 to 10 m, too. The following settings are to be made:
• Analog Input Block 1, Parameter CHANNEL -> "1" (measured level)
• Parameter L_TYPE -> DIRECT
• Parameter group XD_SCALE XD_SCALE 0% -> 0 XD_SCALE 100% -> 10 XD_SCALE_UNIT -> m
• Parameter group OUT_SCALE OUT_SCALE 0% -> 0 OUT_SCALE 100% -> 10 OUT_SCALE_UNIT -> m
7. If required, use the following parameters to define the limit values for alarm and warning
messages: – HI_HI_LIM -> Limit value for the upper alarm – HI_LIM -> Limit value for the upper warning – LO_LIM -> Limit value for the lower warning – LO_LO_LIM -> Limit value for the lower alarm The limit values entered must be within the value range specified in the parameter group OUT_SCALE.
8. In addition to the limit values you must also specify the action taken if a limit value is exceeded
using the alarm priorities (parameters HI_HI_PRI, HI_PRI, LO_PRI, LO_LO_PRI). Reporting to the the fieldbus host system only takes place if the alarm priority is higher than 2. For details refer to section 11.7 in the Appendix.

6.6.5 Connection of the function blocks
1. A concluding overall system configuration is essential so that the operating mode of the Analog Input Block can be set to AUTO and so that the field device is integrated into the system application. To do this, a configuration software (e.g. you host system software) is used to connect the function blocks - normally graphically - to the desired control strategy and then the sequence of the individual process control functions is specified.
NI-FBUS-FMxxx-en-001
Example: Connection of the function blocks with the NI-FBUS Configurator
2. Download the configuration data into the field devices by the download function of the FOUNDATION Fieldbus configuration tool.
3. Set the oerating mode of the AI Block to AUTO (parameter group MODE_BLK, parameter TARGET). However, this is only possible under the following conditions: – The function blocks are correctly connected with each other. – The parametrization of the AI Block is correct (see 6.6.4, steps 5 and 6). – The Resource Block is in operating mode AUTO.

6.7 Commissioning with the handheld terminal DXR375/ FC375
The steps of the commissioning procedure are the same as with a FOUNDATION Fieldbus configuration tool (see chapter 6.6). The blocks should be parametrized in the following order:
• the RESOURCE BLOCK
• the SENSOR BLOCK
(the "basic setup" method can be used for this, see section 5.5.4)
• the ANALOG INPUT BLOCKS

7 Maintenance
The Micropilot M measuring instrument requires no special maintenance.
Exterior cleaning
When cleaning the exterior of measuring devices, always use cleaning agents that do not attack the surface of the housing and the seals.
Replacing seals
The process seals of the sensors must be replaced periodically, particularly if molded seals (aseptic construction) are used. The period between changes depends on the frequency of cleaning cycles and on the temperature of the measured substance and the cleaning temperature.
Repairs
The Endress+Hauser repair concept assumes that the measuring devices have a modular design and that customers are able to undertake repairs themselves. Spare parts are contained in suitable kits. They contain the related replacement instructions. All the spare parts kits which you can order from Endress+Hauser for repairs to the Micropilot M are listed with their order numbers on and . Please contact Endress+Hauser Service for further information on service and spare parts.
Repairs to Ex-approved devices
When carrying out repairs to Ex-approved devices, please note the following:
• Repairs to Ex-approved devices may only be carried out by trained personnel or by Endress+Hauser Service.
• Comply with the prevailing standards, national Ex-area regulations, safety instructions (XA) and certificates.
• Only use original spare parts from Endress+Hauser.
• When ordering a spare part, please note the device designation on the nameplate. Only replace parts with identical parts.
• Carry out repairs according to the instructions. On completion of repairs, carry our the specified routine test on the device.
• Only Endress+Hauser Service may convert a certified device into a different certified variant.
• Document all repair work and conversions.
Replacement
After a complete Micropilot or electronic module has been replaced, the parameters can be downloaded into the instrument again via the communication interface. Prerequisite to this is that the data were uploaded to the PC beforehand using the ToF Tool / Commuwin II. Measurement can continue without having to carry out a new setup.
• You may have to activate linearisation (see BA 221F on the enclosed CD-ROM)
• You may need to record the tank map again (see Basic Setup)
After an antenna component or electronic has been replaced, a new calibration must be carried out. This is described in the repair instructions.

9.4 Orientation of the Micropilot
For orientation a marker is found on the flange or threaded boss of the Micropilot. During installation this must be oriented as follows (see Page 10):
• In tanks: to the vessel wall
• In stilling wells: to the slots
• In bypass pipes: vertical to the tank connectors After commissioning the Micropilot, the echo quality indicates whether a sufficiently large
measuring signal is obtained. If necessary, the quality can be optimised later. Vice versa, the presence of an interference echo can be used to minimise this by optimum orientation. The advantage of this is that the subsequent tank mapping uses a somewhat lower level that causes an increase in the strength of the measuring signal. Proceed as follows:
#
Warning! Subsequent alignment can lead to personal injury. Before you unscrew or loosen the process connection, make sure that the vessel is not under pressure and does not contain any injurious substances.
1. It is best to empty the container so that the bottom is just covered. However, alignment can be carried out even if the vessel is empty.
2. Optimisation is best carried out with the aid of the envelope graph in the display or the ToF Tool.
3. Unscrew the flange or loosen the threaded boss by a half a turn.
4. Turn the flange by one hole or screw the threaded boss by one eighth of a turn. Note the echo quality.
5. Continue to turn until 360° is reached.
6. Optimum alignment:

9.6 Return
The following procedures must be carried out before a transmitter is sent to Endress+Hauser e.g. for repair or calibration:
• Remove all residue which may be present. Pay special attention to the gasket grooves and crevices where fluid may be present. This is especially important if the fluid is dangerous to health, e.g. corrosive, poisonous, carcinogenic, radioactive, etc.
• Always enclose a duly completed "Declaration of contamination" form (a copy of the “Declaration of contamination” is included at the end of this operating manual). Only then can Endress +Hauser transport, examine and repair a returned device.
• Enclose special handling instructions if necessary, for example a safety data sheet as per EN 91/ 155/EEC.
Additionally specify:
• An exact description of the application.
• The chemical and physical characteristics of the product.
• A short description of the error that occurred (specify error code if possible)
• Operating time of the device.

• FMR 231: 1mm / 0.03 % of measuring range
Reaction time The reaction time depends on the parameter settings (min. 1 s). In case of fast level changes, the
instrument needs the reaction time to indicate the new value.
Influence of ambiente temperature
The measurements are carried out in accordance with EN 61298-3:
• digital output (HART, PROFIBUS PA, Foundation Fieldbus): – FMR 231
average T
K
: 5 mm/10 K, max. 15 mm over the entire temperature range -40 °C...+80 °C
Effect of gas phase High pressures reduce the propagation velocity of the measuring signals in the gas/vapor above the
fluid. This effect depends on the gas/vapor and is particularly large for low temperatures. This results in a measuring error that gets bigger as the distance increases between the device zero point (flange) and product surface. The following table illustrates this measured error for a few typical gases/vapors (with regard to the distance; a positive value means that too large a distance is being measured):
Note! When the pressure is known and constant, this measured error can, for example, be compensated by means of linearization.

/Hz This value can be reduced for Wave Guide antennas, depending on the length. In the event of horizontal stress, mechanical support is required or provide the Wave Guide antenna with a protective pipe.
Cleaning of the antenna The antenna can get contaminated, depending on the application. The emission and reception of
microwaves can thus eventually be hindered. The degree of contamination leading to an error depends on the medium and the reflectivity, mainly determined by the dielectric constant
ε
r. If the medium tends to cause contamination and deposits, cleaning on a regular basis is recommended. Care has to be taken not to damage the antenna in the process of a mechanical or hose-down cleaning (eventually connection for cleaning liquid). The material compatibility has to be considered if cleaning agents are used! The maximum permitted temperature at the flange should not be exceeded.

11.3 Resource block
The resource block contains the parameters used to describe physical resources of the device. It has no linkable inputs or outputs.
11.3.1 Operation
The resource block is opened by a click on the resource line. If the NI-FBUS Configurator is being used, a series of file tabs appears on the screen. The files can be opened to view and/or edit the parameters in the following table. A short description of the parameter function appears on the side of the screen. A change in the parameter is stored by pressing the WRITE CHANGES button when the block is out of service. Press the READ ALL button to check the values stored in the device.
11.3.2 Parameters
The function of the resource block parameters not described here can can be taken from the FOUNDATION Fieldbus specification, see "www.fieldbus.org".
Parameter Description
TAG_DESC User description of the intended application of the block.
MODE_BLK Lists the actual, target, permitted and normal operating modes of the block.
– Target: changes the operating mode of the block – Actual: indicates the current operating mode of the block – Permitted: states which operating modes are allowed – Normal: indicates the normal operating mode of the block
The possible operating modes of the resources block are: – AUTO: the block is operating as normal – OOS: the block is out of service.
If the resource block is out of service, then all blocks within the device (resource) are forced into the same status.
RS_STATE Indicates the state of the resource block application state machine
– On-line: block in AUTO mode – Standby: block in OOS mode
WRITE_LOCK Indicates the status of DIP-switch WP
– LOCKED: device data can be modified – NOT LOCKED: device data can be modified
RESTART Allows a manual restart:
– UNINITIALISED: no status – RUN: normal operational status – RESOURCE: resets the resource block parameters – DEFAULTS: Resets all FOUNDATION Fieldbus parameters within the
device, but not the manufacturer specific parameters.
– PROCESSOR: make a warm start of the processor
BLOCK_ERROR Shows error status of software and hardware components
– Out-of-Service: the block is in OOS mode – Simulation active: shows the setting of DIP-switch SIM
BLOCK_ALM Shows any configuration, hardware, connection and system problems in the lock. The
cause of the alert is to be seen in the subcode field.

11.4 Sensor block
The Sensor block contains the parameters required to calibrate the device. These parameters can also be addressed by using the VU331 display module. The calibration of the device is described in Chapter 6.
11.4.1 Operation
Parameter changes from the tool are made off-line while the device is operating. The changes are downloaded by first setting MODE_BLK = OOS then pressing the WRITE CHANGES button. Press the READ ALL button to check the values stored in the device. Normally operation is resumed as soon as MODE-BLK is set to AUTO.
11.4.2 Block administration parameters
11.4.3 Output values
11.4.4 Configuration parameters
The Sensor block also contains the configuration parameters, which are used to commission and calibrate the instrument. They are identical to the functions of the operating menu, except for the service parameters which are not accessible on the bus. Thus, the calibration procedure via the display module (Chapter 6.4) is equally valid for a calibration via a network configuration tool. A complete list of the configuration parameters can be found in the "Description of Instrument Functions", BA221F/00/en.
Parameter Description
MODE_BLK See description in Resource block. The possible operating modes of the Sensor block are:
– AUTO: the block is operating as normal – OOS: the block is out of service.
TAG_DESC User description of the intended application of the block.
BLOCK_ERROR Shows error status of software and hardware components
– Out-of-Service: the block is in OOS mode
Parameter Description
PRIMARY_VALUE Main value (level or volume).
SECONDARY_VALUE Measured distance.
