Volume and Totalization should only be configured after setting the Volume/Totalization options in the Additional Features
Section later in this manual. The following are the relay setup options:
Indication Mode Relay Mode
Distance Distance / Level
Level Level / Distance
Volume Volume
Flow Flow / Distance / Level
Totalization Flow / Totalization
For example, if the SmartSonic is set to FLOW Indication Mode, the relay can be set to Flow, Distance or Level values.
Each of the (5) relays in the SmartSonic allows you to define OPEN and CLOSED values, enabling its use for functions
such as triggering an alarm or controlling pumps. As an alternate, Relay #4 can be configured to report error messages,
and Relay #5 can be configured for a Flow Totalization pulse (see instructions later in this section).
The relay values function as follows:
• OPEN: The relay energizes if the level measured in the vessel is higher than the programmed OPEN value.
• CLOSED: The relay de-energizes if the level measured in the vessel is lower than the programmed CLOSED
value.
The default value for the OPEN and CLOSED functions is 0. The indication mode default value is LEVEL.
NOTE: The CLOSE value must be at lease 1 inch lower than the OPEN value. An error (Err. 3 or Err. 10) will appear if
this is not the case. If a relay value greater than the tank height is entered error (Err. 7) will appear
