For your safety
2 For your safety
2.1 Authorised personnel
All operations described in this operating instructions
manual must be carried out only by trained and
specialist personnel authorised by the operator. For
safety and warranty reasons, any internal work on the
instruments must be carried out only by personnel
authorised by the manufacturer.
2.2 Appropriate use
The indicating and adjustment module is a pluggable

5.2 General functions
Introduction
Measured value indication
OPTISOUND ultrasonic sensors have various functions.
Therefore they can be adapted perfectly to the respec-
tive application. These functions are structured in menu
form. Some of the functions are sensor-specific. These
are described in the operating instructions manual of the
respective sensor. Other functions, however, have
general character, i.e. they are available in sensors with
different measuring principles.
The general functions are described in this paragraph.
The functions of the indicating/adjustment module are
determined by the sensor and correspond to the
respective software version of the sensor.
Information:
The respective menu item number differs depending on
the sensor type and signal output.
The following presentations are available in the measured value display:
l Level as digital value, sensor TAG
l Level as digital value and bar graph, sensor TAG
With [–>] you select the different presentations of the
measured value. From all presentations you reach the
menu overview with [OK]. With [ESC] you return from
the menu overview to the measured value display.
Menu overview
In the menu overview you select the respective menu
with [–>] and finally reach it with [OK]. Then the
individual menu items are available.

When using sensors working acc. to the non-contact
measuring principle, the measurement can be influen-
ced by the respective process conditions. In this menu
item, the reliability of the level echo is displayed in dB.
The reliability is signal strength minus noise. The higher
the value, the more reliable the measurement.
Indication "OK" or flashing error message, e.g. "E013".
In addition, the error appears in clear text in the
measured value display.
Meas. reliability
Sensor status
The signal curves enable a first rough evaluation of the

The false echo curve shows the saved false echoes
(see menu "Service") of the empty vessel with signal
strength in "dB" over the measuring range.
