Sensor Menu
Sensors (Shortcut: Button SENSOR)
To change the sensor settings or to calibrate the sensors, select in the menu under Sensors
the desired sensor (plug). In every row, the sensor plug, sensor type and if set, the sensor
name is displayed.
Example:
S1: PS 3m Tank2
[Plug SENSOR 1, Water level Probe PS with 3 m range,
Name: Tank2]
The following manual refers to the examples of the water level probe and the oxygen sensor
O2S. The menu items for other sensors are described in the manuals of the according sensors.
S1: PS 3m
Sensor referencing
Are all water levels in you system correct, you can set the sensor measurement to zero (0 cm).
This is important since all regulation mechanisms like filter flushing or water refill use this zero
point in their control function.
Position
To select the function of the water level probe, the position must be selected (see also Fig. 4).
Select „Filter“ if the filter backwashing is induced by a decrease of the water level Select „Pre-
chamber“, when the cleaning should be started by a water level increase.
If your are using two water level sensors and you have set both positions for the two sensors,
the flushing is induced by the difference in water level between both sensors.
To refill a tank or pond, you have to place the probe in the according location (e.g. in the pond)
and select „Refill Sensor“ as position. If you want to use other functions, select here „other“.
Alarm threshold
In case there should be an alarm sent, when the sensor gives readings above or below a certain
threshold, you can define these thresholds in this menu item. The hysteresis defines the
tolerance of alarming. For example, if the lower threshold of -15 cm defines the alarm level
and the water level fluctuates between -14.5 and -15.2 cm, the hysteresis of 1 cm eliminates
several warnings always when the sensor reaches -15.0 cm.
In this menu item, you can also activate or deactivate the alarming of this sensor.
To change the settings of the connected sensors, please select here the
sensor. Please refer to the manuals of each sensor. The entire menu is
dynamic and may change depending on the sensor connected.
