Changing Parameter Settings; Quick Setup - Siemens SITRANS Probe LU Schnellstartanleitung

Changing parameter settings

• First launch SIMATIC PDM, connect to SITRANS Probe LU (PROFIBUS PA), and upload
data from the device.
• Adjust parameter values in the parameter view field (right side of screen).
• After adjusting the value, press Enter (the status fields read Changed).
• When you have completed the adjustments, open the Device menu, download data to the
device, and save parameter settings offline (the status fields go blank).

Quick Setup

Only four settings are required for a Quick Setup:
• High Calibration Point and High Level Point
• Low Calibration Point and Low Level Point
Primary Variable (PV) will be level (SV1). SV1 (Secondary Value 1) is the sum of Level plus Level
Offset (if any).

Calibration
1. Open the menu Device – Sensor Calibration and select the tab Dry Calibration. (Click on
Additional Information to see the schematic showing the PROFIBUS parameters.)
2. Enter the new value for Low Calibration Point (default units are meters).
3. Enter the corresponding value for Low Level Point in percent (default is 0).
4. Enter the new value for High Calibration Point (default units are meters).
5. Enter the corresponding value for High Level Point in percent (default is 100).
6. Click on Transfer.
7. SITRANS Probe LU is now ready to operate.
1.
Sensor Reference Point: the point to which all of the above parameters are referenced.
2.
Sensor Value: the value produced by the echo processing, which represents the distance from the
Sensor Reference Point to the target.
3.
Level Value: the level measured in level units.
