INPUT ALARM SETTINGS (STEP 4)
a. Spill alarm level:
i. For dual-rod probe, no setting is needed by the user. Please see Detection Modes in the SensorLink Help
section to learn more about spill alarm settings.
ii. For the Coax probe, the Spill level can be set from 4" to 17" for Performance Detection Mode and Standard
Detection Mode from the bottom edge of the probe nut. The spill alarm level will only be available for the
selection of a coaxial probe is selected in step one.
b. Select the "Spill Alarm Reset" mode. This setting is dependent on the probe type. For dual-rod probes, only
band-clear mode is available. For the Coax probe, select either Band-clear or Auto-clear mode. For details
about band-clear, please see Spill Reset.
c. Manually enter the HH alarm threshold either in the "HH Level Depth" text box or the "HH Level Volume" text
box. To ensure that the HH is registered by SensorLink please press 'Enter' after entering the HH value. The
HH alarm threshold must be above 2Lo and 2" below the spill level (Spill).

INPUT DISPLAY SETTINGS (STEP 5)
Select the number of decimal places used for the volume data under the "Precision Setting" drop-down menu.
7
Note: It is recommended to maximize the display resolution or number of decimal places in the volume measurement.
For example, if the maximum volume of the tank is 80 barrels, then the display resolution should be set to 2 decimal
places so that the maximum volume is 80.00. If the maximum volume of the tank is 9000 litres, then the display
resolution should be set to 0 decimal places. A rule of thumb to follow is that if you remove the decimal point from your
maximum volume, it should be as close to but cannot exceed 9999.

(OPTIONAL) INPUT SUMP SETTINGS
If you have a sump on your tank, go to 'Set Sump' and add the Sump depth value as applicable to the installation.
Clicking the "Set Sump" button will open a new window box in which the user can enter the sump values. The
sump value cannot be less than 0.
If your installation involves the TD100 transmitter that supports a 4-20mA current loop interface, click on "Set 4-
20mA Points" to enter the 4mA and 20mA set points.
While adding these points following restrictions must be observed:
•The 4mA point cannot be less than 0
•The 20mA point cannot be less than 0
•The 4mA point must be set below the 20mA point
