Parameter

Description

No.

 

P100

Sensor Gap in mm.

 

This is a user entered parameter (optional).

 

This value is ignored when an alternative span

 

calibration is caried out (i.e. method two or three).

P101

Sludge type

 

The user can select from a list of sludge type to set

 

up the span for the calibration procedure (optional).

 

Each sludge type is associated with an attenuation

 

factor for each frequency. This value is ignored when

 

an alternative span calibration is caried out

 

(i.e. method two or three).

P102

dB Factor @ 1MHz

 

A user alterable parameter. This is the attenuation

 

number in dB/% at 1MHz. This is used for the span

 

calibration (method three).

P103

dB Factor @ 3.3MHz

 

A user alterable parameter. This is the attenuation

 

number in dB/% at 3.3MHz.This is used for the span

 

calibration (method three).

P120

Zero Ref @ 1MHz

 

This is the value in dBs (@ 1MHz) that is stored in

 

the control unit when a zero calibration is carried out.

 

This value is over written each time a zero calibration

 

is carried out.

P121

Zero Ref @ 3.3MHz

 

This is the value in dBs (@ 3.3MHz) that is stored in

 

the control unit when a zero calibration is carried out.

 

This value is over written each time a zero calibration

 

is carried out.

P122

Date of Zero Ref

 

This is automatically stored by the control unit when

 

the zero calibration is done. The actual date can be

 

set-up in the ENGINEER menu (P730)

P123

Initial Zero Ref @ 1MHz dB’s

 

This is the value in dBs (@ 1MHz) that is stored in

 

the control unit when the initial zero calibration is

 

carried out.This value is compared with subsequent

 

zero calibrations.0 must be entered to reset or clear initial

 

zero value

P124

Initial Zero Ref @ 3.3MHz dB’s

 

This is the value in dBs (@ 3.3MHz) that is stored in

 

the control unit when the initial zero calibration is

carried out.This value is compared with subsequent

zero calibrations.0 must be entered to reset or clear initial
