Tank calibration
To ensure accurate monitoring of fuel, the tank should be calibrated- initially empty (full) tank is filled (merged) in equal portions, with fuel, and with the help of special software eS Install it is measured and recorded by the sensor after adding (draining) the each serving.
To achieve the most accurate performance of the gauge is desirable to “train” the sensor. It is desirable to perform the calibration procedure not immediately after installing the sensor, but some time later, after the vehicle's mileage is corresponding with the expenditure of fuel in the 50 ÷ 70% of tank capacity. During this time, normalized by mechanical clearance, provided by a rubber gasket flange and a polymer sealant, and the entire surface of the probe forms a stable dielectric layer of fuel.
If the «training» of the sensor is not possible, then before the calibration of the tank, by the method of filling, using a new sensor (the probe) to immerse the probe into the fuel, remove and allow the fuel to drain for 20 −30 minutes. If the calibration is performed by draining, then the specified procedure is not needed. At the time of calibration of the sensor must be disconnected from the onboard controller and connected to the PC. At the end of the calibration connection to the onboard controller should be restored.
The result of calibration in the form of tank calibration tables and the credentials of the work performed is saved in PC format, which provides data transmission in the control software.
Attention! Calibration of the tank must be made using the same kind of fuel, which will be operated by the sensor (for example, can not be used for calibration of petrol, if you intend to operate with diesel fuel).
