Fail-safe Timer
Fail-safe Timer determines the time to elapse after the last valid reading before a Fail-
safe state is activated. Fail-safe Material Level determines the level to be reported when
the Fail-safe timer expires. Upon receiving a reliable echo, the loss of echo condition is
aborted, the Service Required icon and error message are cleared, and the reading and
mA output return to the current level.
Fail-safe Material Level
When the
2.4.1. Fail-safe Timer
expires, the material level to be reported is determined by
2.4.2. Fail-safe Material Level (FAILSAFE MAT. LE)
.
Fail-safe Level
When Fail-safe Material level is set to Value, the Fail-safe Level defines a user-defined
level to report when the Fail-safe timer expires..
Fail-safe Material Level
HI Use Maximum mA Limit as material level
LO Use Minimum mA Limit as material level
HOLD Level remains at last reading
VALUE User-selected value as defined in Fail-safe Level
Fail-safe Level
Values 3.6 to 22.6 mA
