percentage of the vessel is displayed correctly. If the volume should
not be displayed in percent but e.g. in l or kg, a scaling can be also set
in the menu item "Display".

Enter the requested parameter via the appropriate keys, save your
settings and jump to the next menu item with the [->] key.
In this menu item you can enter an unambiguous designation for the
sensor, e.g. the measurement loop name or the tank or product
designation. In digital systems and in the documentation of larger
plants, a singular designation should be entered for exact identification
of individual measuring sites.

With this menu item, the Basic adjustment is finished and you can now
jump to the main menu with the [ESC] key.
High sockets or vessel installations, such as e. g. struts or agitators as
well as buildup and weld joints on the vessel walls cause interfering
reflections which can impair the measurement. A false echo storage
detects and marks these false echoes, so that they are no longer taken
into account for the level measurement. A false echo memory should
be created with low level so that all potential interfering reflections will
be detected.

Confirm "False signal suppression - Change now" with [OK] and
select in the below menu "Create new". Enter the actual distance
from the sensor to the product surface. All false signals in this area
are detected by the sensor and saved after confirming with [OK].
