Operation

Operating the MultiRanger

The MultiRanger has two modes of operation: RUN and PROGRAM.

RUN Mode

In RUN mode, the MultiRanger detects material level and provides control functions. The MultiRanger automatically starts in RUN mode when power is applied.

System status is shown on the unit’s LCD, or on a remote communications terminal.
