WATER LEVEL GAUGE CALIBRATION

MANUAL USAGE
This manual will explain the calibration process of the TANKVISION electronic water level system
used on MEGA water distribution equipment.

CALIBRATION (The use of MEGA Part Number 303824 calibration tool is

required for this procedure)
Preferred on unit method
1. Ensure all wiring is intact and not damaged.

2. Ensure the sensing opening of the sensor is free of debris.

3. Ensure water level sensor is installed correctly and not damaged

4. Fill water tank to capacity.

5. Turn electrical power ON.

After power is turned ON, wait 3 to 5 minutes for

transducer to stabilize before calibrating.

6. Slowly swipe the calibration wand magnet end four (4) times over the circle at the bottom of
the gauge labeled CAL.

Each time you swipe the wand, a light will

come ON and FLASH until there are 4 lights
illuminated. Waiting too long between swipes
will cause the gauge to exit the calibration mode.

7. Four lights should be lit on the gauge.

8. Wait 3 seconds.

9. Slowly swipe the wand across the CAL circle 4 times, 4 lights should be lit.

10. Wait 2 seconds.

 WATER LEVEL GAUGE CALIBRATION
11. The gauge should read FULL.

CAL Circle

Slowly Swipe in either

direction

1.

IF, after performing calibration the gauge shows 1 2.

or 2 lights less than FULL, swipe the magnet 3.
five (5) times, wait 3 seconds then swipe five
(5) times again to correct the scale.

DIAGNOSTIC CODES
(There are 9 LEDs in the Primary Display)
1. Down-chasing LEDs, then bottom two (2) flash
Indicating: TANK EMPTY LAST (9)
Meaning: TANKVISION sees an EMPTY tank (9) (9)
Solution: Fill tank with water
or repeat CALIBRATION Procedure

2. First & last LEDs flash alternately

Indication: NO SENSOR
Meaning: NO Sensor connected,
or the sensor is defective
or an OPEN circuit in the sensor wiring
Solution: Check all connections and wiring for damage
or replace cable
or correct connection
or replace sensor
and repeat CALIBRATION procedure

3. Third (3) & fifth (5) LEDs will flash

Indication: DATA ENTRY ERROR
Meaning: Calibration was not performed properly
Solution: Repeat CALIBRATION procedure
 WATER LEVEL GAUGE CALIBRATION
4. Top four (4) flash LEDs alternately with bottom four (4)
Indication: PRESSURE SENSOR HIGH OUTPUT VOLTAGE
(voltage >4.6V)
Meaning: Shorted wire on sensor cable
or Primary Display Failure
Solution: Check cable for short
or replace cable
or Replace Primary Display if no short is present
and repeat CALIBRATION procedure

5. Top 2/3 and Bottom 2/3 LEDs alternately flash

Indication: MEMORY FAILURE
Meaning: Primary Display Failure
Solution: Replace Primary Display
and repeat CALIBRATION procedure

6. Top and Bottom LEDs blink ON and OFF

Indication: Pressure difference between EMPTY and FULL tank is too small
Meaning: Calibration not preformed properly
or sensor cable not connected
or broken wire or bad connector on cable
or defective sensor
Solution: Repeat CALIBRATION procedure
or connect cable
or repair or replace cable or connector
or replace sensor

7. Top two (2) and Bottom two (2) LEDs blink ON and OFF
Indication: Voltage from sensor is more than 0.5V above calibrated FULL tank voltage
Meaning: Calibration not preformed properly
or tank parked at an incline (on a hill)
or shorted wire/bad connector on sensor cable
Solution: Repeat CALIBRATION procedure
or park unit on level ground
or repair or replace cable or connector
