Commissioning

Overview

Introduction
The description below makes no claim to cover all the questions that could arise in relation to
the pump.
The device does not need any tools or special equipment for commissioning.
The procedure for configuration is described in more detail in the "Operation" section. The
setting can only be optimized while the pump is in operation. This is described below. For
details of controlling and operating the pump, refer to the documentation supplied by the
pump manufacturer. They are not covered in this manual.
Note
The limits for the acoustic channels are set at the factory at the maximum value of 99.9 (no
alarm). All universal inputs are set to "oFF" (no signal assignment).
Condition
The information and values specified should only be used as a guide. It is necessary to
define settings that are appropriate for your requirements and purpose.
NOTICE
Signal sensitivity
Your personal specifications and settings determine the signal sensitivity of the diagnostics
unit. Limits that are too narrowly defined may lead to frequent fault signals. Limits that are
too generously defined may result in the alarm being late or not being triggered at all.
NOTICE
Ensure that all electrical connections and the installation of the sensors have been carried
out properly and the cover is closed.
