Xact Small Tank Monitoring System
Troubleshooting
In the event the Xact calibration process fails, it will report one of two results:
The first screen shown at right indicates that
calibration failed because
the fill level measured is different than the expected fill level entered by the
installer. This usually means that the value entered by the installer was in
error due to incorrect readings from the float gauge on the tank.
If a fill percentage was used during the calibration, deselect this and
check the
Fill level unknown
box and re-run the calibration cycle. If the
calibration result is again unsuccessful, follow the instructions below.
The second screen shown indicates that calibration failed with no fill
level detected.
1.
Verify that the tank is at least 20% full. Calibration should not be
performed on tanks with less than 20% fill.
2.
Loosen the strap and remove the sensor. Ensure that the tank is free of
debris at the installation point, and that the tank is level from end to
end. Clean the gel off of the lens, reapply the correct amount of gel,
then re-install the sensor, making sure that the sensor is installed with
the correct alignment. Tighten strap and run the calibration cycle.
3.
If the calibration result is again
unsuccessful
, it may be necessary to
move the Xact System to a new location on the tank and try again.
Repeat the installation process until you achieve a
successful
calibration.
Some tanks are more difficult to set up and the Xact System will only
allow a successful calibration at a good installation point on the tank.
During the installation process you might enc
ounter various “Error”
notices in the application software. These notices generally deal with low
power issues, or disconnected wires. Follow the prompts to resolve problems.
Adherence to these suggestions will help achieve a successful installation.
