1.2 TANKMASTER Rosemount TankMaster comprises the following software modules:

SOFTWARE WinOpi
PACKAGE WinSetup
Tank Server
Master Protocol Servers
Slave Protocol Server
Batch Server
Administrator
WINSETUP WINOPI
Tank Server
Batch Server
Master Protocol Server Slave Protocol Server
COM1 COM2
WinOpi is the operators interface to the Rosemount Tank Gauging system. It

communicates with the Tank Server and the different protocol servers to let
the user monitor measured tank data. WinOpi also provides alarm handling,
batch report, automatic report handling, historical data sampling as well as
inventory calculations like volume, observed density and other parameters.
The WinSetup program is a graphical user interface for installation,
configuration and service of level gauging devices.
The Tank Server communicates with devices via the Master protocol server
and handles configuration data for all the installed tanks and devices. Tank
and device names, configuration data like antenna type, number of connected
temperature sensors and analog inputs and many other parameters are
stored by the Tank Server. The Tank Server collects measured data from
connected devices and provides these data to the WinOpi/WinSetup user
interface.
1-2 Section 1. Getting Started

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
The Master Protocol Server transfers configuration data and measured data
between the Tank Server and connected devices in a Rosemount Tank
Gauging system. The Master Protocol Server is able to communicate with
various types of devices such as Radar Tank Gauges (RTGs), Field
Communication Units (FCUs) and Data Acquisition Units (DAUs) to collect
measured data like for example level, temperature and pressure.
The Slave Protocol Server is used to connect the TankMaster system to a
host computer (DCS system). The Slave Protocol Server exchanges tank
data between the Tank Server and the host computer.
The Batch Server provides functions for starting, monitoring and closing batch
transfers betweeen tanks. It also generates various reports during and after a
batch transfer.
The Administrator program allows you to start and stop TankMaster, and to
specify which TankMaster software modules that will start automatically when
the PC is started. It also includes a backup and restore function, and functions
for handling redundant Tank Servers and Batch Servers.
OPC Server with Browser
TankMaster uses OPC Data Access 2.0 (OLE for Process Control), an open
industry standard, which eliminates the need for costly customized software
integration. With the OPC server and the browser it is easy to import all
custody transfer and inventory data to other OPC clients such as different
DCS:s, PLC:s, Scada systems, or Microsoft Office programs. This way,
operators and plant management are better armed to make timely decisions
as they work with distributed inventory and tank gauging data. (Website OPC
Foundation: www.opcfoundation.org).
Customized views
In TankMaster you can change general and specific tank view and setup
windows. You have a number of options to design your TankMaster as you
like; you can either modify the existing windows or build completely new ones.
For example you can have a photo of your own plant giving a quick realistic
view and just by clicking a specific tank you will get corresponding tank data.

1.4 INSTALLING A Setting up a Tank Level Gauging system is based on two main activities:
TANK LEVEL Tank installation.
GAUGING SYSTEM Device installation.
Tank installation
Tank installation includes specifying tank type, specifying which transmitter to
associate to the tank and which source signals to use as input for various tank
parameters.
Device installation
Device installation includes tasks such as configuration of field bus
communication, specifying tank height and other geometrical parameters,
specifying type of antenna to be used, configuration of temperature sensors,
relays, pressure sensors and other external devices.

3.1 OVERVIEW Before starting to install a Rosemount Tank Gauging system you should make
sure that the following information is available:
A plan of all the devices and tanks. Note the Unit Id of each device and
all the communication addresses to be used (the Unit Id is a unique
identity given to each RTG, FCU and DAU at manufacturing).
All relevant reference distances like tank height, distance between Zero
level and tank bottom etc.
To install a level gauging system you should follow the procedure described
below:
1 Communication Protocol Setup.

Specify communication protocol parameters:
The Master Protocol handles the communication between the
TankMaster PC and field devices such as the Field Communication
Unit (FCU).
The Slave Protocol is used for communication with a host computer.
If you want to supervise the communication on the bus you can specify
the type of errors, function codes etc. to be logged.
2 Preferences.
Specify measurement units, tag prefixes for tank and device labels and
parameters to be displayed when viewing tank data.
3 Install and Configure the Field Communication Unit (FCU).

If the system contains a FCU it has to be installed and configured before
other devices like RTGs and DAUs. To install a FCU you need to:
Assign an address.
For each communication port, choose protocol and set the appropriate
communication parameters.
Configure the slave database which holds information about the
devices connected to the field bus.
4 Tank and Device installation and configuration.

You can choose one of two methods when installing tanks and devices:
Alternative 1: Start by installing the tanks. In this case devices are

installed as part of the tank installation procedure.
Alternative 2: Start by installing and configuring the devices. When the

devices are installed, continue with installing the tanks and associate the
tanks to the appropriate devices.

Workspace window and other windows.
Select devices Associate devices to the tank.
Configuration Specify the available source signals for parameters
such as Free Water Level, Vapor Pressure and
Liquid Pressure.
Value Entry If you want to disconnect automatic measurement
of a certain parameter, you can specify a manual
value to be used instead. You can also specify a
value range to each measured variable.
Device Installation
Installing a device includes the following steps:
Communication Specify protocol and address.

Configuration Specify tank distances, geometrical distances
related to the transmitter, external sensors like
temperature sensors and other parameters
depending on what type of device that is installed.
5 Calibration.
When a Rex 3900 transmitter is installed and configured you need to
adjust the Calibration Distance in order to match measured level and
actual product level. The adjustment should be performed once at the final
commissioning. A calibration may need to be repeated if tank conditions
are changed.

3.5 TANK
INSTALLATION
3.5.1 Overview Basically the purpose of the tank installation procedure is to associate a level
gauge to a certain tank. You are also given the opportunity to specify analog
input signals to be used for certain measured quantities such as Vapor
pressure.
By using the Tank Installation wizard, installing a new tank is a simple and
straightforward procedure.
NOTE!
Make sure that the desired measuring units are specified before installing a
new tank.
The specified measuring units only affect installation of new tanks. Changing
measurement units has no effect on tanks which are already installed in
WinSetup. This means that if you want to change measurement units for a
previously installed tank, it has to be uninstalled first, and then installed again
after changing the measurement units in the System Setup. See also
Measurement Units on page 3-14.
A tank installation includes the following steps:
1. Specify tank type: Fixed Roof, Floating Foof, Sphere, Horizontal etc.
2. Select which devices to associate with the tank.
3. Configure the tank:
Specify analog input signals for Free Water Level (FWL), Vapor
Temperature, Vapor Pressure and Liquid Pressure to be used for
inventory calculations.
4. Specify automatically measured or manual values as input for the
different tank variables.
5. Summary: provides brief information about the installed tank.

Show FCU Slave Positions

You can associate a tank to a device which is not installed yet as long as it is
configured in the FCU slave database. This may be useful if you for example
have planned to install the device at a later time (or when an Echowave
transmitter is connected to the FCU).
1. Select the Show FCU Slave Positions check box to display symbols
which correspond to the FCU slave database.
2. Select the icon that corresponds to the FCU Slave Database position in
question. In this example, the symbol named FCU-1.05 corresponds to
position 5 in the FCU Slave Database as illustrated above.
3. Move the selected item to the Selected Devices pane by clicking the
appropriate arrow button.
NOTE!
You may verify the settings by clicking the Advanced button in the Tank
Configuration window.
Step 4. Configure the tank.
The Tank Configuration window lets you specify analog input signals for
Vapor Temperature, Vapor Pressure, Liquid Pressure, and Free Water
Level (FWL) to be used for inventory calculations. See WinOpi Users Guide
for more information on Inventory Parameters.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
NOTE!
For LPG tanks the Vapor Temperature source and Vapor Pressure source are
configured in LPG Setup (Service/Devices/LPG Setup).
The Calculate in TankMaster check box may be used for devices without
internal calculation of Level Rate. By selecting this check box the Level Rate
is calculated by the TankMaster program.
Vapor Temperature and Vapor Pressure are included in the calculation of
Observed Density. Use the Inventory Parameters description in WinOpi
Users Guide for guidance.
A Rosemount TankRadar Rex gauge is equipped with two analog inputs. The
free water level can for example be obtained from a Water Level Sensor
connected to the Analog Input as illustrated below:
Free water level
Pressure
4-20 MA AIn (0)

AIn (1)
Water Level Sensor (WLS)

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Advanced Configuration
WinSetup allows you to change the mapping between tank and transmitter
parameters. This option can for example be used if the Level value is
temporarily provided by another measurement instrument connected to the
Analog Input of the Radar Tank Gauge. It is also possible to connect
temperature sensors from different tanks to the same DAU. Then you can
configure the tanks to fetch temperature values from different channels of the
DAU.
NOTE!
This option should only be used when the standard Tank Configuration cant
be used.
To change the tank parameter mapping do the following:

1. Click the Advanced button in the Tank Configuration window.
This window lets you change the mapping between measured values and
tank variables.
2. Put the mouse pointer in the output field corresponding to the variable
you want to configure (Level, Level rate etc.).
3. Select the desired variable from the pop-up list.
You can change source of any tank input variable. The following example
illustrates how one DAU may be used to connect temperature sensors from
two different tanks:

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Example
Tanks TK-1 and TK-5 are

equipped with three
temperature sensors each.
TK-1 has one DAU (TT-1)
configured for six temperature
sensors.
The temperature sensors from
both TK-1 and TK-5 are
connected to DAU TT-1.
Configuration of tank TK-1.

Tank TK-1 has the three
temperature sensors connected
to DAU TT-1. The sensors are
mapped from output TT(0) to
TT(2). Note that only three
temperature sensors are
connected, although the DAU is
configured with six sensors.
Configuration of tank TK-5.

The three temperature sensors
are connected to DAU TT-1. In
this case the sensors are
mapped to output TT(3), TT(4)
and TT(5).

Step 5. Value entry.
This window can be used to disconnect the automatic measurement if you for
example want to set manual values for service purposes.
To set manual values do the following:

1. Chose a measurement variable from the left-hand list.
2. Select Value Source/Manual.
3. Type the desired value in the Value entry field.
Now the automatic measurement is disabled for the selected variable. Manual
values are marked in yellow in order to distinguish them from automatically
measured values.
The Value Range parameters (Minimum and Maximum) are used to scale bar
graphs in the Tank View window and other windows (in Winsetup as well as
WinOpi) where bar graphs are used to display product levels. For example,
the Value Range maximum value for Level should be set equal to the Tank
Reference Height, or the maximum level in the strapping table, to get correct
scaling of the level bargraphs as illustrated below:
Value range:
Min=0
Max=20 m

This may be useful if, for example, the temperature close to the surface or
close to the bottom of the tank deviates significantly from the temperature in
the rest of the tank. This may also be accomplished by setting an appropriate
value of the Minimum Distance parameter, see Minimum Distance on
page 3-55.
NOTE!
A faulty temperature sensor is blocked automatically, and consequently
excluded from average temperature calculations.

Configuration - Analog Inputs

To configure connected analog input signals click the appropriate Analog
Input button (Analog Input 1/2) in the REX RTG Configuration window.
Value range
Enter the lower and upper limits corresponding to the 4 mA and 20 mA input
currents, respectively.
Error limits
The error limits define the lower and upper limits of the input currents. Outside
this range an error will be indicated. You can set the upper error limit between
20 and 24 mA, and the lower error limit between 3 and 4 mA. The error limits
should be set to correspond to the error limits of connected instruments. If for
example an instrument sets the output current in alarm mode to 3.8 mA, you
should set the lower error limit to 3.8 or higher.
Value unit
Choose a suitable measurement unit. You can choose between various units
to indicate pressure (mBar G, mBar A), product level, and current.
Filter factor
By setting a filter factor you can suppress spurious fluctuations in the analog
input signal. A value between 1 and 200 can be used. The default value is 4.

Configuration - Analog Outputs

To configure the analog output signal, click the Analog Output button in the
Rex RTG Configuration window.
Analog Out Source

Choose the desired source signal for the Analog Output. If, for example, AOut
Source=Level, the REX gauge provides an analog output signal between 4
and 20 mA which is proportional to the current product level.
Alarm mode
The Alarm mode specifies the analog output state when a measurement error
occurs, or when the measured value is out of range:
High: the output current is set to 22 mA.
Low: the output current is set to 3.8 mA.
Freeze current: the output current is set to the present value at the time
when the error occurs.
Binary High: the output current is 4 mA under normal conditions. If
there is a measurement error, or when the source signal is out of range,
the output current is set to 20 mA.
Binary Low: the output current is 20 mA under normal conditions. If
there is a measurement error, or when the source signal is out of range,
the output current is set to 4 mA.
Range Value
Set the source signal values that correspond to the analog output values 4
mA and 20 mA, respectively. You can specify any value as long as the Upper
range value is above the Lower range value. If the measured value goes out
of range, the transmitter enters the alarm mode.

Configuration - Relay Output

To configure connected relays, in the REX RTG Configuration window click
the appropriate Relay Output button.
The optional Relay Output Card at the underside of the transmitter head,
allows you to use one or two relays. There are two connectors for each relay
(X2-X3 and X4-X5) which can be used to specify relay state On or Off when it
is not energized.
If the transmitter is connected to an FCU, check that the Slave Database is
configured with the correct number of relays. See Installing a Field
Communication Unit (FCU) on page 3-23 for more information.
Using first/both points

Select Use Both Points if you want to define three relay zones.
Select Use Only First Point if you want to use only two relay zones.
First and second set points
The first and second set points define the transitions between Zone 1, 2 and
3. You can set different relay states in each of these zones.
Hysteresis
When the source variable passes a set point, the relay switches from one
state to the other. If a hysteresis zone is specified, the relay remains in the
new state until the source signal has changed back to a value below the set
point and the hysteresis point. Thus, the actual set point is given by the
combination of set point (First Point/Second Point) and the value given in the
Hysteresis input field (see also Relay Functions on page 3-61).

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Relay states
There are three relay states available:
Alarm In this state the relay is de-energized. Depending on how the

relays are connected to X2-X3 (relay 1) and X4-X5 (relay 2) on
the Relay Output Card (ROC), they will be either open or
closed in the de-energized state.
Note that a relay defined as Normally Open will be open in the
Alarm state.
If the relay is configured as Normally Closed it will be closed in
the Alarm state.
Normal In this state the relay is energized.
Toggle The relay switches periodically between Normal and Alarm

Specifies the transmitter variable that triggers the switching of the relay.
Switch Delay
This is the time delay until the relay switches into alarm state, i.e. the amount
of time it takes for a relay to respond to an alarm. You can use this to prevent
the relay from being activated due to temporary variations of the source
signal.
Toggle Period
When the relay is in Toggle state it switches between On and Off at a rate
defined by the Toggle Period.
Control Mode
Manual the relay state is set manually by using the

Manual Control Relay option from the
Service/Devices menu.
Auto the relay state is controlled by the transmitter

variable specified in the Select Source field.
Disabled the relay function is turned off.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Relay output configuration

The relay output can be selected as either Normally Open or Normally
Closed referring to the contact position when the relay is de-energized. This
also refers to the Alarm (Reset) state. By connecting relay 1 to connector X2
on the Relay Output Card (ROC), the relay is set as Normally Closed.
Connecting to X3 sets the relay as Normally Open. See the TankRadar REX
Installation Manual for further information.
The relay terminology can be summarized the following way:
Normally Closed Normally Open
Closed Open Open Closed
De-energized Energized De-energized Energized
Not Active Active Not Active Active
Alarm (Reset) Normal Alarm (Reset) Normal
Example
You want relay 1 to be Open during normal operation and to be Closed when
in alarm mode. This means that the relay is de-energized when there is an
alarm and consequently the relay has to be connected as Normally Closed.
On the Relay Output Card this corresponds to the X2 connector. See the Rex
Installation Manual for more information on how to connect the Rex
transmitter relays.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Relay Functions
You can use one or two set points for relays connected to the Rex transmitter.
Consequently, there are two or three zones in which different relay states can
be specified. For each zone you can set any of the three available relay states
Normal, Alarm or Toggle.
For each set point you can specify a hysteresis zone preventing the relay from
switching back to its previous state as long as the source variable is changed
only small amounts around a certain set point. The principle of relay set points
and hysteresis zones is shown in the figure below. Note that in this example
only two states are used:

according to the definition for Zone 1.
2. The relay state is changed back to the Zone 2 state when the source
value passes the set point as given by the hysteresis value.
3. The source value passes set point two and the relay state is changed
according to the definition for Zone 3.
4. The relay switches back to the Zone 2 relay state when the source value
passes set point two as given by the corresponding hysteresis value.

Hart Devices Configuration

Up to three HART slaves can be connected to Analog Input 1 using address
1-3, see Rex Installation Manual. In this case the current is set to 4 mA.
In Analog Current mode only one HART slave is allowed. In this case address
0 must be used.
To configure connected devices using the HART protocol click the HART
Devices button in the RTG Rex Configuration window.
A Rex gauge can act as a master interfacing up to three HART devices

(slaves) in a multidrop configuration connected to Analog Input 1. When two
or three HART slaves are connected short address 1-3 must be used.
The HART Devices Configuration window lets you specify an identifier for
each HART slave.
If the transmitter is connected to an FCU, check that the Slave Database is
configured with the correct number of HART slaves. See Installing a Field
Communication Unit (FCU) on page 3-23 for more information.
To view status information of connected HART slaves choose HART Devices

3.8.5 Step 5: Tank

Distances
The following tank distance parameters need to be specifed (see also Tank
Distances on page 3-64):
Tank Reference Height (R)
The Tank Reference Height (R) is the distance from the hand dipping nozzle
(Tank Reference Point) to the Zero Level (Dipping Datum Plate) close to or at
the bottom of the tank.
Rex Reference Distance (G)
The RTG Reference Distance (G) is the distance between the Tank Reference
Point and the RTG Reference Point, which is located at the top surface of the
customers flange or manhole cover on which the gauge is mounted. For Still
Pipe Gauges the RTG Reference point is located at the hand-dip mark on the
Still Pipe Gauge Stand.
G is positive if the Tank Reference Point is located above the RTG Ref Point.
Otherwise G is negative.
Minimum Level Distance (C)
The Minimum Level Distance (C) is defined as the distance between the Zero
Level (Dipping Datum Point) and the Minimum Level of the product surface
(tank bottom). By specifying a C-distance, the measuring range can be
extended to the bottom of the tank. If C>0, negative level values will be
displayed when the product surface is below the Zero Level. Select the Show
negative level values as zero check box if you want levels below the Zero
Level to be displayed as Level=0.
Measurements below the Zero Level will not be approved if the C-distance=0,
i.e. the RTG will report an invalid level.

3.8.6 Step 6: RTG

Geometry
Tank Connection Length (TCL)

The TCL can only be changed for antenna type User Defined (see the Rex
Configuration window). For standard antennas such as the Parabolic, Cone
etc. a predefined TCL value is used which can not be changed.
The TCL does not correspond to the physical length of the tank connection. It
is specified for each antenna individually. For User Defined antennas, the
gauge can be calibrated by adjusting the TCL value.
Standard antennas have predefined TCL values which can not be changed in
the REX RTG Geometry window. With predefined antenna types (selected in
the Rex Configuration window), the gauge can be calibrated by adjusting the
Calibration Distance, see Calibration on page 3-120.
Hold Off Distance/UFM
The Hold Off distance/UFM defines how close to the RTG Reference Point a
level value is accepted. Normally the Hold Off distance does not need to be
changed. However, if there are disturbing echoes in the upper part of the tank,
for example from the tank nozzle, you can increase the Hold Off distance in
order to avoid measurements in the region close to the antenna.
Calibration Distance
Use this variable to adjust the transmitter so that measured product levels
match hand dipped levels. Normally a minor adjustment is necessary when
the gauge is installed due to, for example, a minor deviation between the
actual tank height and the value stored in the transmitter database.

Select the button that corresponds to the current type of connection. If a DAU
is part of the installation, also set the DAU Modbus address.
In the FCU Slave Database each device is represented by one row and a
unique address. The Slave Database contains information on each device
such as address, number of temperature sensors etc. (see Installing a Field
Communication Unit (FCU) on page 3-23).
When the communication address is set for the current device, you should
check that the value in the Position in FCU field corresponds to the desired
position in the FCU Slave Database. If the Slave Database position is
incorrect, it may indicate that you have set the wrong address for the current
device.
If there are several FCUs available choose the one that the gauge is
connected to in the FCU Tag box.
For devices connected directly to the FBM (i.e. not via a FCU), select the

3.14 INSTALLING AN LPG/LNG TANK GAUGE
3.14.1 Preparations Make sure that all mechanical installations are made according to
instructions, and that all external sensors such as pressure and temperature
sensors are properly connected. Also make sure that the position of the
reference pin(s) and the inner diameter of the still-pipe are available.
Before the actual LPG configuration can take place, install the tank and the
level gauge in TankMaster WinSetup as described in Tank Installation on
page 3-30 and Installing a Rex 3900 Gauge on page 3-47. Make sure that
the appropriate tank and device types are selected and that the temperature
and pressure sensors are properly configured. Check that the gauge
communicates properly with the TankMaster PC.
The LPG gauge is able to compensate deviations in measured level due to
the influence of highly pressurized vapor above the product surface.
Installation of an LPG gauge can roughly be divided in two main activities:
1. Immediately after the installation of the gauge, when the tank is still
empty, calibrate the gauge and configure for LPG.
2. Setup the correction method that applies to the particular type of product
that is stored in the tank.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
3.14.2 LPG Step 1. Check the ball valve.

Configuration Check that the optional ball valve on the gauge is open and that the
TEST-OPERATION switch is in the OPERATION position.
In the WinSetup Work Space select the appropriate device, click the right
mouse button and choose LPG Setup.
Step 2. Choose Air Correction.
In the LPG Setup window click the Correction button.
Choose Air Correction Only from the list of correction methods and click the
OK button.
NOTE
The Air Correction Only option shall only be used when the tank atmosphere
contains air and no other gases.
(When the LPG configuration is finished the correction method will be

changed to a correction method that applies to the particular type of product
that is used. See Choose correction method. on page 3-107).

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Step 3. Choose Vapor Pressure and Vapor Temperature Source.
In the LPG Setup window click the Pressure button and choose Vapor
Pressure Source.
As source signal you can choose one of the analog inputs or a HART slave
device. It is also possible to set a manual value.
NOTE!
Pressure is not required for correction method One or more known gases,
known mixratio.
In the LPG Setup window, click the Temperature button and choose the
desired temperature source.
There are a number of options available depending on the type of transmitter

that is installed. For the Rex gauge you can choose one of the spot sensors
connected to the transmitter, the average temperature for sensors above the
liquid surface, an analog input signal or the input from a HART slave device.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Step 4. Calibrate.
Make sure that there is no liquid above the calibration ring (or bottom plug) at
the end of the pipe. Check the Ullage value measured by the transmitter
(Ullage = Tank Height R- Product Level L). If the Ullage value is not equal to
the actual distance between the RTG Reference Point and the calibration
ring, open the transmitter Properties window (right-click the device icon and
choose Properties), choose the RTG Geometry tab and adjust the
Calibration Distance (see Step 6: RTG Geometry on page 3-65).
Step 5. Configure the reference pins.
In the LPG Setup window click the Config Pins button.
Enter the reference pin positions. The position is measured from the RTG
Reference Point (see Step 5: Tank Distances on page 3-63 ) to the actual
position of the reference pin.
Since hand dipping can not be performed in high pressurized tanks, Emerson
Process Management / Rosemount Tank Gauging has developed a unique
method to verify level gauging in such tanks. The method is based on
measurement in a special radar wave propagation mode against fixed
reference pins. Up to three reference pins can be mounted in the pipe in order
to verify the measurement.
NOTE!
The value that you enter in the Nominal Pos field refers to the mechanical
distance from the RTG reference point to the reference pin. This value will
only act as a starting point for the following verification process in which the
electrical distance from the RTG reference point to the reference pin is
calculated. In most cases the electrical distance deviates from the actual
mechanical distance.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
RTG REFERENCE POINT
Distance from RTG reference

point to reference pin
RTG REFERENCE PIN
Make sure that the Threshold value is 500 mV.

The amplitude of the echo from the Reference Pin must be above the
threshold value in order to appear in the LPGVerify window (see Step 6 on
page 3-106). If for some reason one of the Reference Pins does not show up,
it is possible to use a smaller threshold value for that particular Reference Pin.
Check that the product level is not above the reference pin.
NOTE!
When the product surface is close to a reference pin, the radar echoes from
the reference pin and the product surface interfere, and the measured
distance to the reference pin becomes inaccurate. It is recommended that
verification is not performed if the distance between a reference pin and the
product surface is less than 900 mm.
REFERENCE PIN
MINIMUM CLEARANCE 900 MM

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Step 6. Verify the gauge measurement.
1. Turn the Calibration Handle to the TEST position on the Radar Tank
Gauge. It is only in this position that the Reference Pins produce visible
radar echoes. Make sure that the pins appear in the LPG Setup window.
In the LPG Setup window click the Verify Pins button.
2. In the LPG Verify Pins window click the Start button to start the
verification process.
3. When the verification is finished, the measured position appears in the
Measured Position column.
4. Note the position of the reference pin in the Measured Position field. If
the measured position deviates from the nominal position, return to the
RTG LPG Configure Pins window and enter the measured position into
the Nominal Position field.
NOTE!
The nominal position that was entered the first time refers to the mechanical
distance. The measured position refers to the electrical distance which is
the distance seen by the RTG.
5. In the LPG Verify Pins window click the Start button again to start a new
verification. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the nominal position in the RTG
LPG Configure Pins window is close to the measured position in the LPG
Verify Pins window.
NOTE!
Remember to put the Calibration Handle on the Radar Tank Gauge back to
the OPERATION position after the verification procedure is finished.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
Step 7. Choose correction method.
There are several options available depending on the number of products and
product type. Click the Correction button:
Choose one of the following methods:

1. Air Correction.
This method should only be used when there is no vapor in the tank, i.e.
when the tank contains only air. This method may for example be used
when the transmitter is calibrated.
2. One known gas.
This method may be used when there is only one gas type in the tank. It
provides the highest accuracy among the different correction methods.
Note that even small amounts of another gas reduces the accuracy.
3. One or more unknown gases.
Use this method for hydrocarbons, for example Propane/Buthane, when
the exact mixture is not known.
4. Two gases, unknown mixratio.
This method is suitable for a mixture of two gases even if the mixratio is
not known.
5. One or more known gases. Known mixratio
This method may be used when there is a well known mixture of up to 4
products in the tank.

3.16 CALIBRATION Normally a minor adjustment of the Calibration Distance is needed in order to
achieve good agreement between measured and actual product level. A small
offset can for example result from deviations between the actual tank height
and the value stored in the gauge database, or from differences between
various RTG microwave units and antennas.
You can choose to make a manual adjustment of the Calibration Distance, or
you can use the Calibrate function to let WinSetup automatically calculate an
optimized Calibration Distance based on measurement data from different
product levels.
NOTE!
The following is a brief description of how to calibrate a Rex gauge. For a
comprehensive description, see the Rex Service manual.
3.16.1 Manual For Rex gauges a rough calibration can be made by manually adjusting the
Adjustment Calibration Distance parameter (for non-standard antennas the Tank
Connection Length (TCL) may need to be adjusted ). By comparing a hand
dipped level with the corresponding level measured by the gauge, a
Calibration Distance value can be calculated according to the formula:
New Calibration Distance=Old Calibration Distance+DL,
where DL=observed level (hand dip) - gauge level reading.
To change the Calibration Distance stored in the gauge database:
1. Select the gauge icon in the WinSetup workspace.
2. Click the right mouse-button and choose the Properties option.
3. Select the RTG Geometry tab.

4. Type the Calibration Distance value in the corresponding input field and
click the OK button.
See the Rex Service manual for further information.

Reference Manual
303027EN, Edition 4
3.16.2 Using the The Calibrate function is a tool which allows you to calculate the Correction
Calibrate Factor for still-pipe measurements. It also optimizes measurement
performance from the top of the tank to the bottom, by automatically
Function
minimizing the offset between actual product levels and corresponding values
measured by the gauge.
To calibrate a Rosemount TankRadar REX gauge:
1. Select the desired gauge in the Workspace window, click the right mouse
button and choose Calibrate,
- or -
choose Calibrate from the Service/Devices menu:
2. Click the Calibration Data button. In the Calibration Data window enter
hand dipped level values and the corresponding levels measured by the
gauge. Click the Save Calibration Data in PC Database button.
The Calibration 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.
3. Click the Write new calibration data to RTG button in order to save the
current calibration data. By clicking the Write new calibration... button,
a new Calibration Distance is calculated and the REX Level values in the
Calibration Data window are recalculated.
See the TankRadar Rex Service manual for further information on

calibrating a Rosemount TankRadar Rex radar level gauge.
