Using P837 and P838 (perform this function at low tank levels)
The TVT (Time Varying Threshold) curve sets a threshold which screens out false echoes
SITRANS Probe LU displays an incorrect full level, or if the reading fluctuates between a false
high level and a correct level, use P838 and P837 together to elevate the TVT (Time Varying
Threshold) in this region and de-sensitize the receiver from any 'base noise' caused by internal
transducer reflections, nozzle echoes, or other vessel false echoes

.
Notes:
• Use this function only if there is a minimum distance of 2 meters from SITRANS Probe LU
to the material. This function works best if the vessel is empty or nearly empty.
• Set P837 and P838 during start up, if possible.
• If the vessel contains an agitator, the agitator should be running.
a. Determine the actual distance from the transducer face to the material level.
b. Select P838 and key in [distance to material level – 0.5 m].
c. Select P837, then press 2 (Learn) and ENTER
