Range Limit
The range limit is the distance at which measurements are ignored. Generally this
refers to the bottom of the container being measured. If a measurement is
detected beyond the range limit it results in a Loss Of Echo (LOE) reading. The
result of this reading is determined by the Fail-Safe Mode, see page 17 for more
information.

is the limit to which the Pointek ULS200 is able to keep up with
rates of change.
If the Pointek ULS200 measurement cannot keep up with the
rate of level change, set the adjustment from 1 to 2.
If the Pointek ULS200 still cannot keep up with the rate of
level change, set the adjustment option to 3. Avoid
choosing an option that is too fast for your application.
