Introduction
Introduction
The Enraf 973 SmartRadar LT is a radar based level gauge. It is designed to measure the product level in
large storage tanks accurately and reliably.
The following options can be added to the basic SmartRadar:
• One hard alarm output contact, which can be linked to one of the four programmable alarms in the
instrument;
• An Infra-Red connector for the configuration tool 847 Portable Enraf Terminal;
• An intrinsically safe output to connect the 977 Tank Side Indicator.
Additional sensors can be connected to the SmartRadar when the optional ICU_HPI board is installed. This
provides the instrument inputs for:
• Spot temperature element (Pt100);
• HART channel for: Model 762, which is a converter for average product (and vapour) temperature
measurement (via MTT) with optionally an integrated water bottom probe;
• HART channel for: pressure transmitters for HIMS configuration or vapour pressure measurement
and for a side mounted water probe.
Standard, the SmartRadar is provided with Enraf field bus transmission for communication with remote tank
gauging systems. Optionally, the following output signals are available:
• Analog 4-20 mA level output with HART communication for other measured quantities (Enraf field bus
signal also available). This requires the optional ICU_HPO board;
• RS-232C or RS-485 serial communication (Enraf field bus signal not available). This requires the
optional ICU_RS232/485 board.

1.1 Principle of measurement
The radar level gauge is a device that uses high-frequency (10 GHz) electromagnetic waves to determine
the distance from the radar antenna to the product surface.
The electro-magnetic wave is sent into the tank and reflected by the product.
As an electro-magnetic wave travels with the speed of light, this measurement can not simply be done on
the basis of time of flight. Instead, the phase difference between the transmitted and the received signal is
measured. The corresponding travelled distance can then be calculated from this phase relation.
This measurement principle is known as synthesized pulse radar (SPR).
Page 6
Introduction
In the 973 SmartRadar LT the microwave signal is generated and led, via the tank separator, to the antenna
(refer to figure 1.1).
The radar antenna shapes the beam and sends the signal into the tank. The microwave signal reflected
from the product is then received by the same radar antenna. The digital electronics in the SmartRadar LT
measure both the transmitted and the reflected signal.
After processing, the measured distance is converted into level data (innage or ullage) and made available
for field communication.
1.2 Configurations
The 973 SmartRadar LT is installed on the tank separator device.
The antenna is coupled to the 973 SmartRadar LT via the tank separator device. The tank separator
provides for adequate isolation between the tank contents and the electronics in the SmartRadar LT.
Refer to figure 1.1.
Depending on the application, different antennas and tank separators are to be used. The tank separator
adapts the different type of antennas.

2.1 Safety aspects of the 973 SmartRadar LT
Warning
Do not use the instrument for anything else than its intended purpose.
The housing of the 973 SmartRadar LT is explosion proof:
•
•
II 1/2 GD EEx d [ib] IIB T4; KEMA 00ATEX2010 certified by KEMA, Netherlands
Class I, Division 1, Groups B, C, D T4, according to NEMA Type 4
The covers of the SmartRadar LT are provided with blocking facilities which prevent unauthorised opening.
Optionally, programming the 973 SmartRadar LT can be done by the 847 PET (Portable Enraf Terminal),
which is an intrinsically safe device and is connected to the SmartRadar LT via an infra-red coupling.
Caution
The 973 SmartRadar LT is an explosion proof instrument with intrinsically safe output/input circuits.
Modification to the instrument may only be carried out by trained personnel that is authorised by Enraf.
Failure to adhere to this will invalidate the approval certificate.
The emitted microwave energy is far below the accepted limits for exposure of the human body. Depending
on the type of antenna, a maximum radiation of 0.1 mW/cm2 is generated.
2.2 Personal safety
The technician must have basic technical skills to be able to safely commission the equipment. When the
973 SmartRadar LT is installed in a hazardous area, the technician must work in accordance with (local)
requirements for electrical equipment in hazardous areas.
Warning
In hazardous areas it is compulsory to use personal protection and safety gear such as:
hard hat, fire-resistive overall, safety shoes, safety glasses and working gloves.
Avoid possible generation of static electricity. Use non-sparking tools and explosion-proof testers.
Do not open any of the instrument covers while power is still connected.
Make sure no dangerous quantities of combustible gas mixtures are present in the working area.
Never start working before the work permit has been signed by all parties.
Pay attention to the kind of product in the tank. If any danger for health, wear a gas mask and take all
necessary precautions.

3.2 Introduction in programming the 973 SmartRadar LT
The item concept
The 973 SmartRadar LT gauge is a field-configurable multi-processor instrument. This means that the
instrument can be totally programmed out in the field, or remotely, without opening the gauge.
All parameters, settings, etc. are accessible either via the optional PET (Portable Enraf Terminal) or
remotely with the service tool Ensite via so-called items.
These items all have unique 2-letter indexes which allow easy access and programming. Many indexes
associate with an abbreviation of the item description.
There are three different type of items:
Type of item
Description
Commands
These will force the gauge to execute a special task or function.
Example: EX (exit). After the EX command, the instrument starts initialising and
modified NOVRAM settings become active.
Data requests
Items for request of setup or measuring data from the gauge.
Example: JS will return the jumper setting on the ICU board. Some of the data
items are read-only.
NOVRAM Settings
All parameters which can be programmed and should not be lost after power
break
down, are stored in NOVRAM. The NOVRAM is a non-volatile RAM memory which
does not require battery back up.
Data stored in NOVRAM can be protected by a password and/or by the NOVRAM protect jumper
(refer to figure 3.1).
Protection levels are provided for all NOVRAM items, depending on the importance of an item. Protection
level 2 is protected by password 2 (W2) and protection level 1 is protected by password 1 (W1).
If the NOVRAM is protected by the NOVRAM jumper (jumper J3), level 2 data cannot be changed without
opening the gauge. Most data requests and commands are not password protected.
Protection level 1
Access to items which are not directly measurement related data, such as high level alarm (HA), tank
identifier (TI), etc. is protected by password 1 (W1). It is possible to modify these data only after entering the
correct level 1 password W1=XXXXXX, where XXXXXX is the level 1 password.
Password W1 itself can be read protected by means of jumper J1 on the ICU board.
Page 12
Commissioning
Protection level 2
All NOVRAM items which affect the (remote) level reading (such as reference level (RL) or transmission
address (TA)) are protected by password 2 (W2). It is possible to modify these data only after entering the
correct password W2=XXXXXX , where XXXXXX is the level 2 password. Additional measurement-related
items, such as temperature items can also be protected by password 2.
Password W2 itself can be read protected by means of jumper J2 on the ICU board.
In protection level 2, the items protected under protection level 1 can be also modified.
Figure 3.1 shows the jumper position on the ICU board. The

Indexed items
In general, items have only one setting (i.e. HA+026.0000). Indexed items have more than one setting
(elements). For instance: item OS (obstruction zone start position). Item OS has ten elements,
corresponding with the ten programmable obstruction zones.

3.3 Connection of service tool Ensite
3.3.1 Communication via the Enraf field bus line
By default, the 973 SmartRadar LT is set on transmission address 00. The 973 SmartRadar LT, and also
other types of Enraf gauges, can be connected in parallel to the Enraf field bus line. Each instrument must
have its unique transmission address.
The items can be programmed using the Portable Enraf Terminal, which is connected via the optional Infrared connector. If this option is not present, items can be programmed remotely.
SmartRadar LT connected to an 858 CIU
Temporary disconnect the RS-232C connection from the Entis+ (or other host) and connect it to a service
PC where the service tool “Ensite” is running (refer to figure 3.2a).
Mind the relation for the transmission addresses per transmission line of the 858 CIU:
TL1 (addresses: 00 - 29), TL2 (addresses: 30 - 59), TL3 (addresses: 60 - 99)
The SmartRadar LT can be connected to the desired transmission line, although its address is still at
default. Thus a SmartRadar LT with default transmission address 00 can be connected to transmission line
2 (suitable for transmission addresses 30 - 59). Due to the mechanism that the request from the host (Ensite
service tool) is transmitted over all three transmission lines, the SmartRadar LT receives the commands.
However, when the SmartRadar LT is connected to transmission line 2 or 3, there is no response.
This concept only works if one new SmartRadar LT is powered with the default transmission address 00.
Also, there may not be an operational gauge with transmission address 00. If such a gauge exists, do switch
it off temporarily.
Continue with section 3.3.4, programming communication parameters.
SmartRadar LT connected to an 880 CIU Prime
HostPort 2 from the CIU Prime must be available for the connection of a service PC where the service tool
“Ensite” is running (refer to figure 3.2b).
To communicate via HostPort 2, the CIU Prime must be configured to CIU 858 emulation mode on
HostPort 2. If HostPort 2 is in use, temporary disconnect it and temporary re-configure the CIU Prime for
CIU 858 emulation via HostPort 2.
This concept only works if one new SmartRadar LT is powered with the default transmission address 00.
Also, there may not be an operational gauge with transmission address 00. If such a gauge exists, do switch
it off temporarily.
Continue with section 3.3.4, programming communication parameters.
SmartRadar LT connected to another type of host
Temporary disconnect the Enraf field bus line from the host.
Use a 847 PET (Portable Enraf Terminal) with optional RS-232C PET Interface as protocol converter
between Enraf field bus signal and RS-232C to the service PC where the service tool “Ensite” is running
(refer to figure 3.2c).
This concept only works if one new SmartRadar LT is powered with the default transmission address 00.
Also, there may not be an operational gauge with transmission address 00 connected to the Enraf field bus
line. If such a gauge exists, do switch it off temporarily.
Continue with section 3.3.4, programming communication parameters.

3.3.2 Communication via RS-232C or RS-485
RS-232C
Connect the RS-232C transmission line from the SmartRadar LT to a service PC where the service tool
“Ensite” is running (refer to figure 3.3a). Default baud rate for RS-232C is 19200 baud.
Continue with section 3.3.4, programming communication parameters.
RS-485
Connect the RS-485 transmission line (eventually via an RS-485 / RS-232C converter) to a service PC
where the service tool “Ensite” is running (refer to figure 3.3b).
Default baud rate for RS-485 is 19200 baud.
When more than one gauge is connected to the same transmission line (multi drop mode), make sure that
only one new SmartRadar LT is powered with the default transmission address 00. Also, there may not be
an operational gauge with transmission address 00. If such a gauge exists, do switch it off temporarily.
Continue with section 3.3.4, programming communication parameters.
3.3.3 Communication via HART ® signal
The SmartRadar LT can be configured to give a 4 - 20 mA level output. In this mode it is possible to
®
configure the SmartRadar LT via the HART communication protocol.
®
®
Connect the HART transmission line via a HART modem to a service PC where the service tool “Ensite”
is running (refer to figure 3.3c).
®
A maximum of 15 SmartRadar LT’s with HART output signal can be connected in parallel (multi drop
®
mode); each gauge having a unique HART communication address from 1 to 15.
When more than one gauge is connected to the same transmission line (multi drop mode), make sure that
only one new SmartRadar LT is powered with the default communication address 0.
Continue with section 3.3.4, programming communication parameters.

Start up the Ensite service tool and make contact with the SmartRadar LT to be configured. It is not
recommended to make a site scan, as the transmission address is still to be changed.
Therefore, to make contact with the gauge, set the address manually in the port settings. This is only
possible if the ExtendedSetup line in the ‘ENSITE.ECS’ file (in subdirectory ECS) is set to: True.

3.4 Programming the gauge
The 973 SmartRadar LT is pre-programmed at the factory. Depending on the application, a number of
additional parameters have to be set.
Note:
The items described in this section are typical for the basic 973 SmartRadar LT.
For the optional functions / boards such as: level alarm relay output, verification pin compensation, spot
temperature measurement, average temperature measurement, analog level output and HIMS
(Hybrid Inventory Management System) please refer to the applicable option manuals.
Step 1:
Collect the required data (such as radar position height, maximum safe fill height,
alarm settings, etc.) on a piece of paper. Refer to 'Commissioning form 973
SmartRadar LT' supplied with each gauge.
Step 2:
Proceed with programming / checking of each item for the standard gauge
without optional functions (level start-up, zones / thresholds and alarm setting).
Step 3:
Check the identification code on the label of the 973 SmartRadar LT to determine
whether the gauge is equipped with one or more optional functions, and program
the items for these options.
In the following sections, the items are listed that as a minimum should be programmed (checked) during
commissioning of the level part of the SmartRadar. Commissioning is divided into the following steps:

AdvancedDSP level calculation routine
Under certain installation conditions, the product level calculation can be done more accurately when the
AdvancedDSP level calculation routine is enabled.
In that case the calculated level is less sensitive for obstructions in the microwave path, like equalisation
holes in stilling well, welding seams and multipath effect from tank shell. Make sure that obstruction zones
are well defined (refer to section 3.4.4: Obstruction reflections).
It is advised to enable AdvancedDSP level calculation with the following antenna installation conditions:
• F08 antenna
: when distance to tank shell is less than 0.15 times tank height;
• W06 and T06 antenna : when distance to tank shell is less than 0.1 times tank height;
• Stilling well antenna
: always;
• RoD antenna
: always.
3.4.3 Level check
Refer to figure 3.4. Check if there is a valid level reading. It is no problem if the value is incorrect, as long as
there are no error status messages. Two common error status messages are discussed below.
1) Level reading 999999999 with level status FL. Check error code item EE (this is an indexed item!).
If EE reads 07901, the maximum safe fill height (item SF) is set too high. Request for the “Antenna
minimum ullage“ (item AU). The following relation is valid: SF + AU < PR.
Either distance PR is not correct or the maximum safe fill height (SF) is too large for this installation.
2) If there is a “Warning code” present, check warning code item WC (this is an indexed item!).
If WC reads 07000, the reflected signal is not so strong that its peak rises above a threshold setting.
Lower the product zone threshold (or another zone threshold where the peak is found). Refer to section
3.4.4 for more information on zones and thresholds.

3.4.4 Zones and threshold settings
The tank height is divided into 3 measuring zones: Antenna zone, Product zone and Bottom zone.
In addition, ten obstruction zones can be programmed. Refer to figure 3.5.
Please note that the X-axis from figure 3.5 indicates ullage. The zero point on the X-axis represents the
"Radar reference". This is in most cases the nozzle height, with respect to the tank zero, on which the
antenna is mounted (item PR; position radar). Refer also to figure 3.4.
Warning
The product reflection in the area “Antenna minimum ullage” will be indicated as product level
with reduced accuracy and with warning code 7013: ‘level above measuring range’.
Do not use this area as normal operational area because of the chance for a tank overflow.
The antenna is located inside the antenna minimum ullage area. In this area, reflections from the antenna
will decrease to almost zero at 0.5 to 2 metres distance from the antenna surface (depending on the type of
antenna).

noise is filtered out. Only the peaks above a threshold setting are selected as possible product peak.
The antenna zone length (item AZ) covers the area where antenna reflections are low but still present.
The antenna zone threshold should cover the most of the antenna reflections.
The antenna zone length does not need to extend till the antenna reflections are completely zero; only

Reflection diagram
The area between antenna zone length and the bottom zone is called "product zone". The product zone
threshold can be set with item ZP.
The bottom zone is defined around tank zero. With bottom zone offset (item BZ) the position above tank
zero is defined where the product zone ends and the bottom zone begins. The bottom zone extends three
Fourier distances under tank zero (approximately 0.44 m).
The bottom zone definition is important in applications where the bottom can be seen through the product in
the reflection diagram. At a low product level both the product reflection and the bottom reflection will then
be present and the bottom reflection can be the strongest. In that case the bottom zone offset must be set
large enough to make sure that when the tank is emptying the product peak enters the bottom zone first,
before the bottom reflection enters the bottom zone. The bottom reflection peak enters the bottom zone in
the opposite direction and the peaks merge when the tank gets empty.
Tank zero
The low speed of the radar signal through the liquid column
gives the impression that the bottom looks further away than it
really is. When the tank is emptying the bottom appears to
rise. Figure 3.7 gives an example of such a situation. Item BZ
should be set to a value of 0.6 to 1.0 metres (2' to 3' 4").
Product
peak
When measuring the roof of a (internal) floating roof tank, the
mechanism of searching for a smaller peak in front of a larger
peak in the bottom zone is disabled. By setting the third
nd
element in item 4S (2 level calculation decision switch) to ‘R’
you can declare the floating roof application.

Reflections beyond the bottom zone are ignored for level
detection. The bottom zone threshold can be set with item ZB.

When obstructions are expected and there cannot be made a reflection diagram, these items are very
helpful to select the obstruction zones. However, the best results can be obtained from the information of a
reflection diagram.
Obstruction reflections
Objects that are in the microwave path will cause reflections. All reflections from objects other than the
product surface are called: ‘obstruction reflections’.
Note:
In the reflection diagram you will probably also see second order reflection peaks, found at double
distance.
Obstruction reflections can be caused by heating coils, welding seams from tank shell or stilling well, etc.
Special examples of obstruction reflections are the antenna reflection and the bottom reflection.
Obstruction reflections can influence the level measurement:
• When an obstruction reflection is detected above the zone threshold, it becomes a candidate for the
selection of the level peak. This is not a problem, as the peak detection software can handle this.
• When the product peak approaches an obstruction peak, the two peaks will influence the calculation
of their positions. The influence starts when the peaks are 0.4 m (16 ") apart. The obstruction reduces
the accuracy of the calculated level position. In many cases this is a one-side phenomenon, where
the obstruction reflection disappears as the product submerges the reflecting object.
• The AdvancedDSP level calculation is less sensitive for the presence of an obstruction reflection. But
the inaccuracy of the normally calculated level position may cause a jump of the AdvancedDSP level

of 15 mm ( /32 "). These jumps can be prevented by declaring an obstruction zone around the
position of the obstruction peak.
The SmartRadar software provides for setting of obstruction zones and obstruction threshold for each zone.
This can be used to prevent obstruction reflections from appearing in the list of detected peaks. From the list
of detected peaks the product level peak is selected. As explained above, the peak detection software can
cope with the presence of obstruction reflections without the obstruction zone settings.
However, it is advised to define obstruction area’s around obstruction peaks when the AdvancedDSP level
calculation is used. It is then not required to set obstruction thresholds; only the zone definition is required.

Figure 3.8 shows a Reflection Diagram in which an obstruction is found at approximately 8 m level
(6.25 m ullage). The product reflection is found at approximately 3.8 m level (10.44 m ullage).
In this example, the following settings should be selected:
Obstruction zone start at 5.85 m ullage (at least 0.4 m before the obstruction reflection).
Obstruction zone end at 6.65 m ullage (at least 0.4 m after the obstruction reflection).

It is advised to use obstruction area’s for recognizable obstruction peaks that stay below the zone threshold
(for instance: welding seams from the tank shell or stilling well, or roof truss). Obstructions from welding
seams can be recognized as they appear at regular intervals. Refer to figure 3.9.
Select the peaks in the reflection diagram, which are known to be caused by an obstruction.
Mark the obstructions with an obstruction zone. The length of the obstruction zone should be at least 0.8 m.
As the bottom reflection and the antenna reflection belong to the obstructions, it is advised to define
obstruction zones in front of the antenna position and the bottom position.
For the AdvancedDSP level calculation, the obstruction threshold should be set below the product threshold
(e.g. at 5 dB).

The reflection diagram in figure 3.9 shows three obstructions at equal distances. It can therefore be
assumed that there is a fourth obstruction (at approximately 11 metres ullage), though not visible in this
diagram because it is submerged. For a clear overview of all obstructions, it is recommended to make a

3.4.8 Detection algorithm and special settings
Presentation of the measured level is the result of a two stage process:
• stage 1: detection
• stage 2: acceptance
Detection
The detection operates on the last radar signal captured. First peaks are detected that are above the
thresholds (items ZA, ZB and ZP). When there are peaks found, the level peak is selected from the list of
detected peaks (items 5D and 5E).
Special fuzzy logic is built in, to select the level peak from the set of detected peaks. It is important to know
that the fuzzy logic makes use of pattern recognition. Especially at very high levels it looks for patterns with
second or third order echo's. In free-space applications such echo's result from reflections against the roof
of the tank. Knowledge about he position of the roof is therefore important. Therefore, the distance from the
nozzle to the roof must be declared in item OR.
Acceptance
Acceptance operates around an authorised gauge level value and the ‘low product delay counter’ value.
The low product delay counter value can be set with item FI (default value: 75; maximum value: 99).
When an authorised gauge level is present, the value is used as the acceptance criterium for the level peaks
presented by the detection stage.
Successful acceptance of the latest level peak is used to update the authorised gauge level value.
Consecutive rejection of level peaks and / or absence of level peaks over a number of measurements equal
to the number in the low product delay counter, will result in discarding the authorised gauge level value.
When the value is discarded, the last valid value is available as level value over a period of 30 seconds.
When there is no authorised gauge level value, the level peaks presented by the detection stage are used to
built up the evidence needed to arrive at a new authorised gauge level value. A level must be present, at
least intermittent, over a number of measurements equal to the low product delay counter, before it can
become authorised.

Reduced accuracy
Obstructions in the tank may produce reflections. When the level reflection is in the neighbourhood of an
obstruction reflection the accuracy of the obtained level reading is reduced. The software provides for
entering data to describe obstruction zones. See items OS, OE, OT and OZ. This can be used to detect that
the level reflection is in an obstruction zone. When in addition level calculation decision switch item 4V
position 2 is set to 'O', a reduced accuracy warning will be set if the level reflection is in an obstruction zone.
When the level is in the bottom zone, a bottom reflection may reduce the accuracy of the level reading.
When the level calculation decision switch item 4V position 1 is set to 'B' , a reduced accuracy warning will
be produced if the level is in the bottom zone.
Peak selection with roof reflector
With light products it is possible to have a reflection from the tank bottom, specially at lower level through
the product. Therefore, there is a routine that in the bottom zone is searched for a smaller peak in front of
the highest peak, which is caused by the bottom.
However, when a roof reflector is used it is impossible to look through the product. That information is given
in item 4S, second position.

Possibility of peak selection dilemma after gauge startup
It is theoretically possible after a gauge startup, that two peaks are detected of which the second peak is at
a double distance with respect to the first peak. The second peak might be a second order echo, in which
case the first peak is the level peak. But it is also possible that the first peak is from an obstruction, whilst
the second peak is the level peak.
In that case the first peak is used to present the level, with error number 7014 and level reading
‘999999999’.
In the course of the time it may become apparent which is the level peak when there is a level change.
When this happens the error is removed and the correct level is presented.
When however the level in the tank does not change, it may take a long time for the situation with error 7014
to persist. That is why the operator can interfere.
With item 4W the operator selects the first peak as level peak; with item 4X the operator selects the second
peak as level peak. In both cases the error 7014 is removed and turned into a warning 7014.
With these commands the operator can inspect the two level values involved in the dilemma and choose the
level value that he judges is the product level.
In addition the operator can cancel the level selection with item 4Y. This will restore the level failure situation
with level reading ‘999999999’ and error code 7014.
In the course of time, when there has been a sufficient level change, the start-up dilemma will be resolved.
From that moment on error 7014 or warning 7014 will disappear, the level will be presented and the
commands 4W, 4X and 4Y will have no effect.

3.4.9 Additional adjustment with measurement on stilling well
The propagation speed of the microwave, and hence the level measurement, depends on the inner diameter
of the stilling well. The smaller the diameter, the lower the propagation speed, resulting in a larger measured
radar ullage.
Item BD holds the inner diameter of the stilling well. When the real value of the inner diameter differs from
the setting in item BD, the SmartRadar has a ‘gain’ error in the level measurement.
It is therefore recommended to check the level reading of the SmartRadar LT with some manual dips at
different static levels over the full operating range.
Note:
After commissioning, the AdvancedDSP routines require one complete passage through the full
operating level range, before the optimum accurate level reading is obtained.
A level gain error, when present, can be corrected in two ways:
•
•
ullage correction table

For the correction via the ullage correction table, refer to the description of items CW, CL and CS.

4.2 The instrument covers
The SmartRadar LT enclosure is water proof IP67. For this purpose, the covers are fitted with O-rings.
Check the O-rings before closing the instrument.
Caution
Do not damage the thread of the covers and 973 housing and keep the thread free of dirt.
After opening, grease it lightly with anti seize grease.
When closing, never tighten the covers before the threads are properly engaged.
The covers should be turned counter-clockwise until the thread “clicks” in place,
then turn clockwise until the covers are fully closed.
4.3 Min max diagram
One of the features of the 973 SmartRadar LT is that the instrument keeps track of the measured
reflections. The minimum and maximum product reflection strength, measured at each Fourier interval, is
stored.
Whenever a larger reflection strength is measured at a specific Fourier interval, the previous value is
overwritten. The same is done for the minimum reflection strength value. In this way, a reflection history is
present in the instrument.
The minimum and maximum reflection strength values can be retrieved by the Ensite service tool producing
a so-called “min max diagram”. Figure 4.2 gives an example of a min max diagram.

4.4 Alarm loop checking
Normally, level alarms can be verified when the level reaches the low level or high level alarm set point.
The level alarms and, if applicable, the hard alarm contact coupled to one of the level alarms, can be
checked by a “loop check” command. This is independent of the actual level value.
The level alarm signalling can be checked in several ways:
• via the communication line to the host
• via the hard alarm output contact
When enabled, the alarm test (item AT) can be given. The specified alarm is then toggled for one minute.
Item AT has 8 positions; four character pairs are used to specify the desired alarm for testing: HH, HA, LA
and LL. Each alarm can be tested individually, or the alarms can be tested simultaneously.

For example:
AT= - - HALA - toggles the high and low level alarm for one minute.
Note:
When, as in the above example, a high and low alarm are toggled at the same time, the high alarm
prevails over the low alarm on the communication line. It is therefore recommended to check only one
alarm at the time.

4.5 Error codes and status information
The 973 SmartRadar LT is an instrument with error reporting. Detected errors can be requested by the 847
PET (optional) or by the service tool Ensite.
The following items provide the error data of the processor boards:
EB
EE
EP
WC
Error request RFB-2 / DAB board
Error request ICU board (APU part)
Error request ICU board (XPU-2 part)
Warning code ICU board (APU part) (not a real error, but a warning that the level may not be
accurate)
These items contain an error (warning) code of the last occurred error condition. The error data can be read
as long as the gauge is not reset.
Besides the error data, data items from level, and optional functions such as temperature and analog level
output, contain one or more status characters which also give valuable information. Most status characters
are bit coded. Appendix B contains an ASCII table for conversion of a status character into bits.
Bits are numbered from 0 to 7 from right to left.
An example for a bit coded status character:
a status character reads: F;
written out in bits (refer to Appendix B): 0100 0110;
(b7=0, b6=1, b5=0, b4=0, b3=0, b2=1, b1=1, b0=0).
Bit 7 is always a '0' and bit 6 is always a '1', to avoid 'control' characters.
Look up the description of the particular error (e.g. QR in section 4.5.2) to find the description of the
meanings allocated to each bit of the character. Only the bits set to '1' represent an actual status.
4.5.1 XPU-2 error code (item EP) of ICU board
The XPU-2 error code is a three-digit number. When the XPU-2 detected an error about a certain item, that
item follows the error code, separated by a space.
For instance: 067 LL : invalid level format in item LL.

Service and troubleshooting
4.6 Updating software
The 973 SmartRadar LT is a multiple microprocessor gauge. If a new software version is installed, or an
option board is added, it may be necessary to replace one or more of the program memories (EPROM) on
the processor boards of the 973 SmartRadar LT.
The actual version of the installed software can be checked with item SV. In case of a software update,
check whether the contents of item SV correspond with the documentation accompanying the new software.
Because of the strict relationship between the various processor boards, it may become necessary to
replace the memory of more than one processor board. Such a change may require an initialization of the
NOVRAM, followed by re-programming the user parameters.
The table below gives the software versions for the different processor boards which can operate together.
Processor
ICU board
(XPU-2 part)
ICU board
(APU part)
RFB-2 / DAB
board
Software
version
XPU K1.0
APU B1.0
DAB B1.0
Optional board
HPI A1.0
HPO A1.0
Note:
Because software updates of different processor boards may be required in the future, this table may not
be up to date. For further information, contact Enraf or the local representative.
If a new DAB / APU software version from a different row in the table above is placed in the SmartRadar LT,
the Antenna parameters must also be updated. This can be done with a separate script file named:
“873AUD03.ESF” of the Ensite service tool.
Proceed as follows:
1) Start up Ensite and make a log file of the gauge from which the software is going to be replaced.
2) Run the script file 873AUD03.ESF. This file is (should be) placed in the ESF sub-directory of the
Ensite program and then it can be selected by the name: “873 AU download”. This file stores data of
the Antenna and RFB-2 calibration SEEPROM in a file called: “< TI >.AUD”, located in the Tank
subdirectory under: [drive]:\ENSITE\DAT\.SIT\. (TI is the 6 character tank identifier name,
 represents the given site name when the scanned site data was stored and [drive] is the
C- or D- drive from which the Ensite service tool is running).
3) Request to following data with the service tool Ensite:
• Transmission address (item TA)
• Tank identifier (item TI)
• Transmission speed (item TS)
• Gauge type (item GT)
Note these values for later use.
Warning
Switch off supply before opening any of the covers.
4) Switch off mains supply and open cover of electronic compartment.
