Programming SITRANS LR460
SITRANS LR460 only supports SIMATIC PDM version 6.0 with SP2 HF1 (or higher).
Note:
To set up SITRANS LR460 for a simple application requires only the following settings:
• select application type (silo construction)
• select operation mode: level, distance or space
• set speed of response
• set high and low calibration points
A Quick Start Wizard groups together all the settings you need. There are two ways to access
the wizard:

Activating SITRANS LR460
Notes:
• Keep infrared devices such as laptops, cell phones, and PDAs, away from
SITRANS LR460 to prevent inadvertent operation.
• Frequently switching the device off and on causes wear of the electronics. For details,
see the full manual.
Power up the instrument. SITRANS LR460 automatically starts up in RUN mode, and detects
the distance to the material level referenced from the sensor flange face. The LCD displays the
measurement and the default unit is meters. System status is displayed on the LCD, or on a
remote communications terminal.
