7. Select the Probe tab.
8. Choose a Probe Type that corresponds to the probe that is used on the
5300. It is possible to choose a predefined (standard) probe, or User
Defined for non-standard probes. When using a predefined probe type,
measurement performance is optimized by automatically specifying
various device parameters. For a User Defined probe the database
settings must be configured manually.
The following predefined (standard) Probe Types are available:
• Flexible Twin
• Flexible Single
• Coaxial
9. Specify the Probe Length. The Probe Length is measured from the
Upper Reference Point to the end of the probe. If a weight is used at the
end of the probe it shall not be included. See the Rosemount 5300
Reference Manual for more information.
10. Adjust the Hold Off Distance (UNZ) if there are disturbances in the
upper part of the tank. Such problems may occur if there are disturbing
objects, such as a narrow nozzle with rough walls, close to the probe. By
increasing the Hold Off distance, the measuring range is reduced.
11. Click the Apply button to store the configuration.
See the Rosemount 5300 Reference Manual (Document No.
00809-0100-4530) for more information on Hold Off Distance and other
configuration parameters.
