6.4.2 Probe length calculation

CAUTION!
• Make sure that you do this procedure before you use the device.
• If you decrease the probe length, do the probe length calculation procedure before the
snapshot procedure.
• The probe length cannot be less than 600 mm / 23.6¨ for coaxial probes and 1000 mm / 39.4¨
for other probe types.
• Make sure that the tank is empty or only filled to the minimum level.
• Make sure that there are no objects adjacent to the probe. For more data about empty space,
refer to General requirements on page 25.
Do this quick set-up procedure (menu item 2.1.3) if:
• it is the first time that the device is used,

• the probe length was changed or
• the signal converter was replaced.
When you do this procedure, the device automatically calculates and records the probe length.
Values and parameters that can be changed are shown between the « ... » marks in the

do the procedure that follows:
• Go to menu item 2.3.6 DETECT.DELAY in the supervisor menu.

• Record the initial value.
i Is the initial value the same as 2.3.2 BLOC. DIST.?
• If the initial value is different, change the value to the blocking distance in menu item 2.3.2
BLOC. DIST..
• Do the probe length calculation procedure again.
• After you complete the procedure, change the value back to its initial setting.
For more data about menu items, refer to Function description on page 82.
6.4.3 Snapshot
The snapshot procedure is very important for the performance of the device. Make sure that the
tank is empty or only filled to the minimum level before you do the procedure.
Use this procedure (menu item 2.1.2) if there are objects adjacent to the probe that can cause
parasitic signals. The device does a scan for objects that do not change their vertical positions in
the tank (heating tubes, agitators, fuel assemblies etc.) and records the data. The device can
then use this data to put the measurement signal through a filter (Dynamic Parasite Rejection).

INFORMATION!
Dynamic Parasite Rejection (DPR) is a function that automatically puts parasitic signals through
a signal filter. Parasitic signals are caused by internal vessel installations or build-up on the
probe during normal operation. Use the DPR function to get the best possible performance
during level measurement. To use the device with the DPR function, do the snapshot procedure
(refer to menu item 2.1.2). During this procedure, the software finds, marks, and saves all
parasitic signals.
When the device is in DPR mode (when menu item 2.5.11 SNAPSHOT MOD. is set to "static" or
"static and dynamic"), it will automatically update this data to ignore old and new parasitic
signals. Thus, it is not necessary to do the snapshot procedure again. Because the device
records the data from the SNAPSHOT procedure (for "static" or "static and dynamic" modes), it
is also not necessary to do the procedure again if you de-energize the device.
CAUTION!
• If you decrease the probe length, do the probe length calculation procedure before the
snapshot procedure.
• Make sure that the tank is empty or only filled to the minimum level.
• Make sure that there are no objects adjacent to the probe. For more data about empty space,
refer to General requirements on page 25.
Before you do the snapshot procedure, install the device on the tank. For more data about how to
install the device, refer to Installation on page 17.

6.4.10 Thresholds and parasitic signals

General notes
The low-power electromagnetic signal from the device goes down the probe. The surface of the
liquid or solids, and objects in the tank, make reflections. These reflections go back up the probe
to the signal converter. The signal converter changes the reflections into voltage amplitudes.
Reflections from objects in the tanks are interference signals (parasitic signals).
How thresholds work

Thresholds let the device ignore reflections with small amplitudes and monitor changes in level.
The device uses the menu items that follow:

• 2.5.7 LEVEL THRESH. (level threshold) to set the threshold for the reflection on the surface of
the liquid or solids.
• 2.5.9 PROBE END TH. (probe end threshold) to set the threshold for the reflection on the end
of the probe. If you must calculate the εr of the product or operate the device in automatic or
TBF mode, there must be a good probe end signal.
The user can do a check of the signal amplitude after reflection on the surface of the
liquid or solids:
• 2.5.6 LEVEL AMP. (level pulse amplitude). This is the amplitude of the signal after it makes a
reflection on the surface of the liquid or solid in the tank and is compared with the reference
pulse amplitude. It is measured in thousandths (1...1000) of the reference pulse amplitude
(value= 1000). The device measures the distance from the process connection to the level
signal, and the signal amplitude. The signal converter then does a mathematical conversion
(that agrees with a law of signal attenuation) to show the signal amplitude at a standard
distance of 1 m / 3.3 ft from the process connection. This value helps you to set the
measurement threshold in menu item 2.5.7 LEVEL THRESH..
• 2.5.8 PROB.END AMP (probe end amplitude). This is the amplitude of the signal after it makes
a reflection on the probe end and is compared with the reference pulse amplitude. This value
is measured in thousandths (1...1000) of the reference pulse amplitude (value= 1000). The
device measures the distance from the process connection to the probe end signal, and the
signal amplitude. The signal converter then does a mathematical conversion (that agrees
with a law of signal attenuation) to show the signal amplitude at a standard distance of 1 m /
3.3 ft from the process connection. This value helps you to set the measurement threshold in
menu item 2.5.9 PROBE END TH..
INFORMATION!
For more data on menu items, refer to Function description on page 82.

How to use thresholds

INFORMATION!
• Although the data that follows refers to the level threshold, it is applicable for the probe end
threshold.
• If there is a parasitic signal above the level and the threshold is too low, the device can
incorrectly use it as the level signal.
Figure 6-7: Signal intensity/distance graph: thresholds

1 Signal intensity given as a fraction of the reference pulse (measured in thousandths)
2 Distance from the process connection
3 Parasitic signal. A signal from a level switch that is in the limits of the electromagnetic field around the probe.
4 Level signal of the liquid or solids
5 The level threshold is correct. The device ignores the parasitic signal and measures level correctly.
6 The level threshold is too low. The device can use the parasitic signal as the level signal. Do the snapshot procedure
(menu item 2.1.2) to make sure that the device ignores the parasite signal.
If the parasitic signal is smaller than the correct level, you can manually change the
threshold to find the signal. This procedure tells you how to change the level threshold
to find the correct signal:
• Look at the menu item 2.5.6 LEVEL AMP..
i Make a note of the amplitude of the correct level signal. Use this value to calculate the new
value for 2.5.7 LEVEL THRESH..
• Go to 2.5.7 LEVEL THRESH..
• Increase the amplitude of the level threshold.
i This value must be more than the incorrect signal. We recommend that you set the level
threshold at half the amplitude of the correct signal.
• Save the settings.
i The threshold increases. It ignores the parasite signal and uses the first signal it finds.

Probe end threshold

The device uses TBF mode to measure the level of products with low dielectric constants. It uses
the probe end as a reference. If the reflection is very weak, change the probe end threshold to
ignore parasitic signals. Refer to the procedure in How to use thresholds to change the probe
end threshold.
For more data about the probe end threshold, refer to Function description on page 82 (menu
item 2.5.9).

OPTIFLEX 2200 C/F TECHNICAL DATA 8
8.1 Measuring principle

This Guided Radar (TDR) level transmitter has been developed from a proven technology called
Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR).
The device transmits low-intensity electromagnetic pulses of approximately one nanosecond

width along a rigid or flexible conductor. These pulses move at the speed of light. When the
pulses reach the surface of the product to be measured, the pulses are reflected back to the
signal converter.
The device measures the time from when the pulse is emitted to when it is received: half of this
time is equivalent to the distance from the reference point of the device to the surface of the
product. The time value is converted into an output current of 4...20 mA.
Dust, foam, vapour, agitated surfaces, boiling surfaces, changes in pressure, changes in
temperature, changes in dielectric constant and changes in density do not have an effect on
device performance.
The illustration that follows shows a snapshot of what a user would see on an oscilloscope, if the
level of one product is measured.

9 DESCRIPTION OF HART INTERFACE OPTIFLEX 2200 C/F
9.1 General description

The HART® Protocol is an open digital communication protocol for industry. It is free to use by
anyone. It is included in the software embedded in signal converters of HART-compatible
devices.
There are 2 classes of devices which support the HART® Protocol: operating devices and field
devices. There are 2 classes of operating devices (Master): PC-supported workstations (Primary
Master) and manual control units (Secondary Master). These can be used in control centres and
other locations. HART® field devices include sensors, converters and actuators. Field devices
include 2-wire and 4-wire devices, and also intrinsically-safe versions for use in hazardous
areas.
There are 2 primary operation modes for HART-compatible devices: point-to-point mode and
multi-drop mode.
If the device is used in point-to-point mode, the HART® Protocol uses the Bell 202 Frequency
Shift Keying (FSK) standard to put a digital signal on top of the 4...20 mA signal. The connected
device sends and receives digital signals that agree with the HART® Protocol, and sends analog
signals at the same time. Only 1 device can be connected to the signal cable.
If the device is used in multi-drop mode, the network only uses a digital signal that agrees with
the HART® Protocol. The loop current is set to 4 mA. You can connect a maximum of 63 devices
to the signal cable.
An FSK or HART® modem is included in field devices and manual control units. It is necessary to
have an external modem for PC-supported workstations. The external modem is connected to
the serial interface.

OPTIFLEX 2200 C/F DESCRIPTION OF HART INTERFACE 9
9.3 Connection variants

The signal converter is a 2-wire device with 4...20 mA current output and HART® interface.
• Multi-Drop Mode is supported

In a Multi-Drop communication system, more than 1 device is connected to a common
transmission cable.
• Burst Mode is not supported
There are two ways of using the HART® communication:

• as Point-to-Point connection and
• as Multi-Drop connection with 2-wire connection.
9.3.1 Point-to-Point connection – analogue / digital mode

Point-to-Point connection between the signal converter and the HART® Master.
The current output of the device is passive.
Also refer to Point-to-point networks on page 66.
9.3.2 Multi-Drop connection (2-wire connection)

Up to 63 devices may be installed in parallel (this signal converter and other HART® devices).
For an illustration of multi-drop networks, refer to Multi-drop networks on page 67.
For data on communication in multi-drop mode, refer to HART® network configuration on page
97.
9.4 HART® device variables
HART® device variable Code Type

level 1 linear
distance 2 linear
conversion 3 linear
ullage conversion 4 linear
The HART® dynamic variables PV (Primary Variable), SV (Secondary Variable), TV (Third Variable)
and QV (Fourth Variable) can be assigned to any of the device variables.
The HART® dynamic variable PV is always connected to the HART® current output which is, for
example, assigned to level measurement.

9.5 Field Communicator 375/475 (FC 375/475)

The Field Communicator is a hand terminal from Emerson Process Management that is
designed to configure HART® and Foundation Fieldbus devices. Device Descriptions (DDs) are
used to integrate different devices into the Field Communicator.
9.5.1 Installation
CAUTION!
The Field Communicator cannot be used to correctly configure, operate or read data from the
device unless the Device Description (DD) file is installed.
System and software requirements for the Field Communicator

• System card that includes the "Easy Upgrade Option"
• Field Communicator Easy Upgrade Programming Utility
• HART® Device Description file
For more data, refer to the Field Communicator User’s Manual.
9.5.2 Operation
INFORMATION!
The Field Communicator will not give you access to the service menu. A simulation is only
possible for current outputs.
The Field Communicator and the device's local display use almost the same procedures to
operate the signal converter. The online help for each menu item refers to the function number
given to each menu item on the local device display. Protection of settings is the same as on the
device's local display.
The Field Communicator always saves a complete configuration for communication with AMS.
For more data, refer to HART® menu tree for Basic-DD on page 167.

9.6 Asset Management Solutions (AMS®)

The Asset Management Solutions Device Manager (AMS®) is a PC program from Emerson
Process Management which is designed to configure and manage HART®, PROFIBUS and
Foundation Fieldbus devices. Device Descriptions (DDs) are used to integrate different devices
into the AMS®.
9.6.1 Installation
Please read the README.TXT file in the Installation Kit.
If the Device Description has not been installed at this time, install the Installation Kit HART®
AMS. This .EXE file is given on the DVD-ROM supplied with the device. You can also download the
file from our website.
For installation data, refer to the "AMS Intelligent Device Manager Books Online" section "Basic
AMS Functionality > Device Configurations > Installing Device Types > Procedures > Install
device types from media".
9.6.2 Operation
INFORMATION!
For more data, refer to HART® menu tree for AMS on page 169.
9.6.3 Parameter for the basic configuration

Due to AMS requirements and conventions, there are differences when operating the signal
converter with AMS and operating using the local keyboard. The service menu parameters are
not supported and simulation is only possible for current outputs. The online help for each
parameter contains its function number as a reference to the local device display.
9.7 Field Device Tool / Device Type Manager (FDT / DTM)

A Field Device Tool Container (FDT Container) is a PC program used to configure HART®,
PROFIBUS and Foundation Fieldbus devices. To configure a device, an FDT container uses the
applicable Device Type Manager (DTM).
9.7.1 Installation
Before you operate the device, the Device Type Manager (Device DTM) must be installed in the
Field Device Tool Container. This .msi file is given on the DVD-ROM supplied with the device. You
can also download the file from our website. For installation and configuration data, refer to the
documentation that is supplied with the Device DTM on the DVD-ROM or in the "Downloads"
section of the website.
9.7.2 Operation
The DTM and the device's local display use almost the same procedures to operate the signal
converter. For more data, refer to Operation on page 75.

9.8 Process Device Manager (PDM)

The Process Device Manager (PDM) is a Siemens PC program designed to configure HART® and
PROFIBUS devices. Device Descriptions (DDs) are used to integrate different devices into the
PDM.
9.8.1 Installation
Install Device Description files supplied in the Device Install HART® PDM folder. This is
necessary for each type of field device that is used with SIMATIC PDM. This folder is available for
download from the website or on the DVD-ROM supplied with the device.

10.4 Glossary
C
Cable This is a wire rope. It is used as a measurement pulse guide.
D
Dielectric constant An electrical property of the product to be measured used in TDR
measurement. Also known as εr, DK and relative permittivity. This gives the
strength of the measurement pulse reflected back to the device's signal
converter.
Direct mode The device sends a signal along the probe. It receives the reflection of the
signal from the surface of the tank contents. The device uses an algorithm
to convert the time it takes to receive the signal into a distance. Use of this
measurement mode depends on the minimum dielectric constant limit of
the probe type. For more data, refer to Technical data on page 130. Refer
also to TBF mode.
mode
Discontinuities These are objects or parts of objects (including the tank) that are in the
tank, are possibly in the probe's empty space and can potentially influence
the electromagnetic field around the probe. This can cause a measurement
error. Also refer to General requirements on page 25.
Distance This is a display option. It is the distance from the face of flange to the level
(1 product) or the surface of the top product (2 or more products). Refer to
the diagrams at the end of this section.
E
Electromagnetic compatibility Defines how much a device influences or is influenced by other devices that
generate electromagnetic fields during operation. Refer to European
standard EN 61326-1 and EN 61326-2-3 for further details.
Electromagnetic field This is a physical field that is produced by electrically-charged objects and
which may affect the behaviour of other objects near to the field.
Empty space A minimum diameter around a probe that should have no objects in it for
the device to work correctly. This depends on the probe type. Refer to
Installation for more details.
H
Hazardous area An area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Trained personnel can
install and use a device in this area. The device must be ordered with the
appropriate options. The device requires approvals (ATEX, IECEx, cFMus,
NEPSI etc.) related to site specifications. You can find more data about
hazardous areas in the Ex Manuals and Ex Certificates of Compliance.
L
Level This is a display option. It is the height from the bottom of the tank (user-
defined) to the surface of the top product (Tank height – distance). Refer to
the diagrams at the end of this section.

M
Mass This is a display option. It shows the total mass of tank contents. Use a
mass table or a volume table to display measurement data with mass
units.
Measurement pulse The device transmits a short, low-powered electrical pulse or wave
transmitted down a guide to the process. The process (or the probe end if
in TBF measurement mode) reflects the pulse back to the device.
O
Operators Users who can choose how to display measurements. They cannot
configure the device in supervisor mode.
P
Probe This is either a metallic cable or rod used to guide the measurement pulse
to the process.
Probe length Ordered length of probe, L, from the face of the flange to end of the guide. If
you ordered a cable probe, this includes the counterweight. Refer to the
diagrams at the end of this section.
S
Supervisors Users who can configure the device in supervisor mode. They cannot
configure the device in service mode.
T
TBF mode Tank Bottom Following (TBF) mode. If the product has a low dielectric
constant, use this mode. TBF mode uses the end of the probe to indirectly
measure the tank contents.
TDR Time domain reflectometry (TDR). The principle used by the device to
measure level. For more data, refer to Measuring principle on page 129.
Threshold A number of limits set either manually or automatically by the signal
converter to identify the reflected measurement pulses from the level, and
the probe end. For configuration data, refer to Function description on page
82.
Top dead zone The distance from the flange to the top limit of the measuring range. Also
refer to Measurement limits on page 142.
U
Ullage mass This is a display option. It shows empty mass or mass of the product that
can be put into the tank. Refer to the diagrams at the end of this section.
Ullage volume This is a display option. It shows the unfilled volume. Refer to the diagrams
at the end of this section.
V
Volume Total volume of tank contents. Calculated with a volume table.
