6.2.10 Calibration Using the WinSetup Calibrate function
The Calibrate function is a tool that lets you adjust a Rosemount 5900 level
gauge in order to minimize the offset between actual (hand dipped) product
levels and the values measured by the level gauge. By using the Calibrate
function you can optimize measurement performance over the whole
measurement range from the top to the bottom of the tank.
The Calibration function calculates a new Calibration Distance based on
fitting a straight line to the deviations between hand dipped levels and levels
measured by the transmitter.
For the Rosemount 5900 still pipe gauge the calibration function is specially
suitable since a minor adjustment of the Scale Factor is often necessary. The
radar propagation velocity is dependent on the inner diameter of the still pipe,
and the Scale Factor parameter is used to adjust the transmitter to take this
effect into account. Since the average diameter is often difficult to determine
accurately a calibration is often needed.
Procedure
The adjustment process includes the following steps:
1. Recording the hand dipped ullage values and the corresponding level
gauge values.
2. Entering the hand dipped levels and the level gauge values into
WinSetup.
3. Inspect the resulting calibration graph and, if necessary, exclude
measurement points which should not be used in the adjustment
calculation.
Required information
Make sure that the following information is available when you intend to use
the RTG Adjustment function in TankMaster WinSetup:
•
A list of hand dipped ullage values.
•
A list of RTG level values corresponding to the hand dipped ullage/level
values.
Hand dipping
Staff
Only one person should perform the manual ullage measurements in order
to guarantee good repeatability between measurements.
Hand dip tape
Use only one tape for the calibration. The tape should be made of steel
and calibrated by an approved testing institute. It must also be free from
bends and kinks. The thermal expansion factor and calibration
temperature shall also be provided.
Dip hatch
A dip hatch should be available close to the level gauge. If the dip hatch is
far away from the level gauge, differences in roof movements may result in
large errors.

Properties/Tank Distances option.
3. Click the Calibration Data button.
4. Enter hand dipped level values and the corresponding levels measured
by the transmitter. It is recommended that the hand dipped levels are
based on the average value of three consecutive measurements within 1
mm. For further information see “Hand dipping” on page 6-14.
NOTE!
Measurement unit mm is used in the Calibration Data window.

5. Click the Refresh button. Now WinSetup calculates the deviations
between hand dipped and measured levels.
6. Click the Save Calibration Data in PC Database button in order to save
the entered values and return to the Calibrate window.
7. The Calibrate window displays a straight line fitted through measurement
points representing the difference between hand dipped level values,
and values measured by the RTG. For still pipe antennas a sloping line is
displayed, otherwise the line is horizontal. The slope is due to the linear
impact from the still pipe on the microwave velocity of propagation.
8. Check that the line fits well to the measurement points. If a point deviates
significantly from the line, it can be excluded from the calculations by
opening the Calibration Data window (click the Calibration Data button)
and deselecting the corresponding check box in the Enable column.
9. Click the Write new calibration data to RTG button in order to save the
current calibration data.
NOTE!
By clicking the Write new calibration data to RTG button, the Level values in
the Calibration Data window are recalculated and the old Calibration Data is
replaced.

Now you can check the calibration result by opening the Calibration window
again:
Note that all measured values are adjusted according to the calculated
Calibration Distance and Correction Factor. In the Calibration Data window
you can also see that the level values measured by the transmitter are
adjusted. Of course, the hand dipped levels are unaltered.

Procedures and instructions in this section may require special precautions to
ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Information that
raises potential safety issues is indicated by a warning symbol ( ). Please
refer to the following safety messages before performing an operation
preceded by this symbol.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury:
Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate
hazardous locations certifications.
Before connecting a communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the
instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or
non-incendive field wiring practices.
Do not remove the transmitter cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.
Failure to follow safe installation and servicing guidelines could result in death or
serious injury:
Make sure the transmitter is installed by qualified personnel and in accordance with
applicable code of practice.
Use the equipment only as specified in this manual. Failure to do so may impair the
protection provided by the equipment.
Do not perform any service other than those contained in this manual unless you are
qualified.
Any substitution of non-recognized spare parts may jeopardize safety. Repair, for e.g.
substitution of components etc. may also jeopardize safety and is under no
circumstances allowed.
To prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, disconnect power before
servicing.

High voltage that may be present on leads could cause electrical shock:
Avoid contact with leads and terminals.
Make sure the mains power to the Radar Transmitter is off and the lines to any other
external power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring
the transmitter.
Antennas with non-conducting surfaces may generate an ignition-capable level of
electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions. Therefore, when the antenna is
used in a potentially explosive atmoshpere, appropriate measures must be taken to
prevent electrostatic discharge.

Special Conditions for Safe Use (X)
1. The enclosure contains aluminum and is considered to present a
potential risk of ignition by impact or friction. Care must be taken during
installation and use to prevent impact or friction.
2. Parabolic and Array antennas with plastic surfaces and the painted
surface of the enclosure may, under certain extreme conditions,
generate an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge for IIC
applications. Therefore, when these antennas are used in Category 1G,
Group IIC, appropriate measures must be taken to prevent electrostatic
discharge.

The Tank Scan window is a useful tool for analyzing the Rosemount 5900
measurement signal. It allows you to view tank echoes and setup the most
important parameters to enable the gauge to distinguish between the surface
echo and disturbing echoes and noise.
To open the Tank Scan window:
1. Start the TankMaster WinSetup program.
2. In the TankMaster WinSetup workspace, click the right mouse button on
the icon that represents the 5900 radar level gauge.
3. From the popup menu choose the Properties option.
The RLG Properties window appears.
4. In the RLG Properties window, select the Advanced Configuration tab.
5. Click the Tank Scan button to open the Tank Scan window:
Figure C-2. The WinSetup Tank
Scan window
6. The Tank Scan window contains the Graph Area, Legend/Options area,
File Storage buttons, and various action buttons.
When the Tank Scan window is opened, the system starts reading tank data
from the gauge (indicated by a progress bar in the lower right-hand corner).
The Tank Echo curve shows the measurement signal in graphical form. Apart
from the surface echo there might be echoes from obtacles in the tank.
In the graph area you can configure the gauge to filter out echoes that
originate from obtacles in the tank in order to facilitate tracking of the product
surface echo.
The tank echo and echo peaks can be refreshed at any time with the Reread
From Gauge button. The new echo curve will be shown as a black line and
the previous curve as a grey line. The graph may show up to two old echo
curves. An old echo peak will be marked by a small cross. This can be used to
compare the existing tank signal with previous signals.

C.4 EMPTY TANK
HANDLING
Rosemount 5900 Series
The Rosemount 5900 Empty Tank Handling function handles situations
when the surface echo is close to the tank bottom. It has the ability to:
•
track weak product echoes
•
handle lost echoes
If the surface echo is lost this function makes the 5900 present a zero-level
measurement, and an alarm is activated unless the alarm has been blocked.
To open the Empty Tank Handling window:
1. In the TankMaster WinSetup workspace, click the right mouse button on
the icon that represents the desired 5900 radar level gauge.
2. From the popup menu choose the Properties option.
The RLG Properties window appears.
3. In the RLG Properties window, select the Advanced Configuration tab.
4. Click the Empty Tank Handling button:
Figure C-3. The WinSetup

Level Alarm is not set when Tank is Empty
If the echo from the product is lost in an area close to the tank bottom (Empty
Tank Detection Area), the device will enter empty tank state and an alarm is
triggered. Two types of alarms are triggered:
•
Invalid Level (can be seen in the Diagnostics window).
•
The Analog Output enters Alarm Mode.
Enable this checkbox if you don’t want the alarm to be triggered when the
gauge enters empty tank state.

Activate Extra Echo Function
The Extra Echo Detection function is used for tanks with domed or conical
bottom shapes, and when the tank bottom does not produce a strong echo
when the tank is empty. The function will make measurements near the tank
bottom more robust.
For these tank types an echo beneath the actual tank bottom sometimes
appears when the tank is empty. If the device is not able to detect the tank
bottom this function can be used to ensure that the device stays in empty tank
state as long as an extra echo is present.
You can verify that such an echo exists by using the Tank Scan function when
the tank is empty. Make sure you scan a distance that exceeds below the tank
bottom. In the tank spectrum you can also find suitable values for Extra Echo
Min Distance, Extra Echo Max Distance and Extra Echo Min Amplitude.
When an echo within the Min and Max Distance with an amplitude above the
specified limit appears the tank is considered empty.
Extra Echo Min Distance
Defines the minimum distance to the extra echo. This parameter should be
greater than the Tank Height.
Extra Echo Max Distance
Defines the maximum distance to the extra echo. This parameter should
be greater than the Extra Echo Min Distance.
Extra Echo Min Amplitude
Defines the minimum signal strength of the extra echo. If the signal
strength of the extra echo exceeds this value and is found in the window
between Min and Max Distance the device is forced to stay in empty tank
state and to present Level=0.

Bottom Echo Visible if Tank is Empty
Only set this parameter if the bottom echo is visible. By setting this parameter
the bottom echo will be treated as a disturbance echo to facilitate tracking of
weak surface echoes close to the tank bottom.
Check if the gauge detects the tank bottom when the tank is empty before
activating this function.
This setting defines how the device should act when the tank is empty. A
bottom echo is visible if you have a strong echo from the tank bottom when
the tank is empty. You can use the spectrum to verify if such an echo exists
when the tank is empty.
Note!If you have a bottom echo this checkbox should be enabled.
By setting this parameter the bottom echo will be treated as a disturbance
echo to facilitate tracking of weak surface echoes close to the tank bottom. If
this parameter is not enabled, searching for a lost surface echo is restricted to
a region close to the tank bottom (Empty Tank Detection Area).
If the checkbox for Use Automatic Empty Tank Handling is enabled, the
Bottom Echo Visible if Tank is Empty function is automatically controlled by
the gauge.
If the checkbox is not enabled you can manually activate the Bottom Echo
Visible if Tank is Empty function is enabled this overrides the automatic
setting.

Empty Tank Detection Area
The Empty Tank Detection Area defines a range within a lower limit of
400 mm (16 in.) and a higher limit of 1000 mm (39 in.) above the tank bottom.
If the surface echo is lost in this region, the tank is considered empty (the
device enters Empty Tank State) and the transmitter presents a zero level
reading.
If the tank is empty the transmitter searches for the product surface in a
regiion 2 x Empty Tank Detection Area. When a new echo is found it is
considered to be the product surface. It is important that there are no
disturbances in this area. If there are disturbances they may need to be
filtered out.
This parameter is only used if there is no bottom echo visible. The Bottom
Echo Visible if Tank is Empty function shall be disabled.

C.5 SURFACE ECHO
TRACKING
Rosemount 5900 Series
The Surface Echo Tracking function can be used to eliminate problems with
certain types of ghost echoes below the product surface. This may, for
example, occur in Still-pipes because of multiple reflections between the pipe
wall, flange and antenna. In the tank spectrum these echoes appear as
amplitude peaks at various distances below the product surface.
To activate this funciton select the Always Track First Echo check box. Make
sure that there are no disturbing echoes above the product surface when this
function is activated.
To open the Surface Echo Tracking window:
1. In the TankMaster WinSetup workspace, click the right mouse button on
the desired 5900 radar level gauge icon.
2. From the popup menu choose the Properties option.
3. In the RLG Properties window, select the Advanced Configuration tab.
4. Click the Surface Echo Tracking button:

Echo Timeout
Use Echo Timeout to define the time in seconds before the transmitter will
start to search for a surface echo after it has been lost. After an echo has
been lost, the transmitter will not start searching, or trigger any alarms, until
this time has elapsed.

Close Distance
This parameter defines a window centered at the current surface position in
which new surface echo candidates can be selected. The size of the window
is ±CloseDist. Echoes outside this window will not be considered as surface
echoes. The transmitter will without delay jump to the strongest echo inside
this window. If there are rapid level changes in the tank, the value of the Close
Distance Window could be increased to prevent the transmitter from missing
level changes. On the other hand, a too large value might cause the
transmitter to select an invalid echo as the surface echo.
Search Speed
This parameter indicates how quickly the search region (Slow Search
window) is expanded when the Slow Search function is active.

Rosemount 5900 Series
Damping Value
The Damping Value parameter determines how quickly the transmitter
responds to level changes and how robust the measurement signal is against
noise. Technically, a damping value of 10 means that in 10 seconds the output
from the transmitter is about 63% of the new level value. Consequently, when
there are rapid level changes in the tank, it may be necessary to decrease the
Damping value for the transmitter to be able to track the surface. On the other
hand, in noisy environments, and if level rates are low, it may be better to
increase the damping value to have a stable output signal.
Distance Filter Factor
This parameter defines the amount of product level filtering (1 = 100%).
A low Filter Factor means that a new level value is calculated by adding a
small fraction (for instance 1%) of the level change to the last known level
value. It makes the level value steady but the device reacts slowly to level
changes in the tank.
A high Filter Factor means that a larger fraction of the level change is added
to the current level value. This setting makes the device react quickly to level
changes but the presented level value can be somewhat jumpy.
Jump Filter
The Jump Filter is typically used for applications with turbulent surface and
makes the echo tracking work smoother as the level passes, for example, an
agitator. If the surface echo is lost and a new surface echo is found, the Jump
Filter makes the transmitter wait some time before it jumps to the new echo.
During that time the new echo has to be considered a valid echo.
The Jump Filter does not use the Distance Filter Factor and can be used at
the same time as the Least Square or the Adaptive Filter.

Setting window
Least Square Filter
The Least Square filter gives increased accuracy for slow filling or emptying of
the tank. The level value follows the surface with high accuracy and without
delay as the level changes. The Least Square filter can not be used at the
same time as the Adaptive Filter.
Adaptive Filter
The Adaptive Filter automatically adapts to the movement of the surface level.
