3.2 Principle of operation
The VEGASON series 60 electronics module is suitable for
exchange with VEGASON series 60 ultrasonic sensors. It is
available in different versions (see chapter "Mounting prepa-
rations").
3.3 Packaging, transport and storage
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport.
Its capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured
by a test according to DIN EN 24180.
The packaging of standard instruments consists of environ-
ment-friendly, recyclable cardboard. For special versions, PE
foam or PE foil is also used. Dispose of the packaging material
via specialised recycling companies.
Transport must be carried out under consideration of the notes
on the transport packaging. Nonobservance of these instructions can cause damage to the device.
The delivery must be checked for completeness and possible
transit damage immediately at receipt. Ascertained transit
damage or concealed defects must be appropriately dealt
with.
Up to the time of installation the packaging must be closed and
stored according to the orientation and storage markings on
the outside.
Unless otherwise indicated, the packaging must be stored only
under the following conditions:

4.1 General instructions
If
the electronics module is defective, it can be replaced by the
user.
In Ex applications only one instrument and one oscillator with
respective Ex approval may be used.
If there is no electronics module available on site, one can be
ordered from the VEGA agency serving you.
The new electronics module must be loaded with the order and
factory data of the sensor. These are the options:
l at the factory by VEGA
l or on site by the user
Information:
When loading on site, first of all the order data must be
downloaded from the Internet (see "Setup").
In both cases, the sensor serial number is necessary. The
serial numbers are stated on the type label of the instrument,
inside the housing or on the delivery note.
Caution:
The order data and company data contain important presettings for the sensor. A reliable operation and a correction of the
measurement is not possible without these data.
Electronics modules are adapted to the respective sensor.
They differ, e.g. in the signal output, the power supply or
approval.
First of all check by means of the overview in section Mounting
preparations, if you are using the suitable electronics module.
Compare the new electronics module with the existing one.
The specifications on the type label must correspond. This
applies mainly to instruments with approvals.
Warning:
Switch off voltage supply before starting the mounting
procedure. The replacement electronics must only be mounted
in idle condition. Non-observance will damage the electronics!

6 Setup
6.1 Setup prep
arations
If you have ordered the electronics module by stating the
sensor serial number, it is ready for the setup procedure
after installation and connection to power supply.
If you have ordered the electronics module without stating
the sensor serial number or you are using a suitable
electronics module from stock, you first have to load the
sensor data after installation.
Move via
www.vega.com to the item "serial number search".
The order data of the sensor will be displayed after entering
the serial number.
Fig. 6: Example for the order data of a sensor.
Below the order data you will find "Sensor data for Service-
DTM" as XML file. This file includes all sensor-specific
parameters as well as the data of the factory setting.

Setup
30206-EN-070510
Load this file with "Save target as" on your PC. Start
PACTware™ and mode in the Service-DTM to the menu item
"Electronics exchange". Transfer the XML file into the sensor.
6.2 Setup procedure, two-wire and four-wire
electronics
As a rule, all settings already carried out on site with the
previous electronics module such as min./max. adjustment,
false echo fade-out etc., must be repeated.
Tip:
For this purpose, use the copy function of the indicating and
adjustment module or the adjustment software PACTware™.
6.3 Additional setup procedure, four-wire
electronics 4 … 20 mA
With four-wire instruments 4 … 20 mA/HART there is a power
supply electronics in the connection compartment. This
electronics is used for connection to the voltage supply and
delivers the 4 … 20 mA output current. The electronics module
must be adapted to the power supply electronics after an
exchange.
Proceed as follows:
1 Connecting the sensor to voltage supply
2 Connect the PC with PACTware™ via VEGACONNECT 3
to the sensor
3 Connect ammeter with measuring range 20 mA as well as
resolution and accuracy ≤1 µA to the current output
4 Select in the Service-DTM the menu item "Current
calibration" and start the calibration
Information:
The electronics module starts a calibration procedure and
simulates two current values. These values are influenced by
the power supply electronics and displayed on the ammeter.
Typical values are e.g. 6819 and 18597 µA.
5 Enter the measured current values for the first and second
calibration point into the respective menu items

Electronics module - VEGASON series 60 15
Setup
30206-EN-070510
The Service-DTM confirms the successful input of the current
values and indicates the actual current value. This value
corresponds to the actual measured value taking the calibration into account.
As a rule, all settings already carried out on site with the
previous electronics module such as min./max. adjustment,
false echo fade-out etc., must be repeated.
Tip:
For this purpose, use the copy function of the indicating and
adjustment module or the adjustment software PACTware™.
