SOPAS ET configuration software
The SOPAS-ET configuration software can be used to adapt the device to the reading
situation on site. The configuration data is stored and archived as a parameter set
(project file) on the PC.
7.3
Initial Commissioning
The device is adjusted to the reading situation on site using the SOPAS ET configuration
software. The starting point for this is the default factory settings, which can be
adjusted to optimize the device. In order to do this, the SOPAS ET configuration soft‐
ware is used to create an application-specific parameter set, which can be loaded per‐
manently into the device and saved and archived as a project file (SOPAS file with con‐
figuration data) on the PC.
