Output For more information, consult parameter Current Output (2.5.) on page 129. Level system synchronization The HydroRanger 200 HMI CANNOT be synchronized with the MultiRanger Note: Plus or the HydroRanger. When using multiple ultrasonic level monitors, running the transducer cables in separate grounded metal conduits is recommended.
L2/N Digital communications Wiring the HydroRanger 200 HMI for communications allows it to be integrated into a full SCADA system or an industrial LAN. The HydroRanger 200 HMI can also be directly connected to a computer running SIMATIC PDM.

Commissioning Local commissioning The HydroRanger 200 HMI is built for easy operation, making it possible to be commissioned quickly. Its parameters are menu-driven and can be modified locally using the LCD and push buttons, also known as the Human Machine Interface (HMI).
The HydroRanger 200 HMI provides two measurement views. Measurement View 1 displays the Primary Reading, while Measurement View 2 displays both the Primary Reading and the Auxiliary Reading. When the HydroRanger 200 HMI is in RUN mode, you can switch between these views using the arrow keys.
Discrete Inputs current state of each input. Discrete inputs are used to trigger or alter the (active/inactive) way the HydroRanger 200 HMI controls devices such as pumps and alarms. Information about which relays are programmed and what the current Relays states of each relay are.
The HydroRanger 200 HMI will continue to display your selected temporary value until the next power cycle. After a power cycle, the HydroRanger 200 HMI will show the default 2. 1 2.7. Default Auxiliary Reading on page 173...
PROGRAM Mode The HydroRanger 200 HMI is programmed by setting its parameters to match your specific application. Most parameters are indexed, allowing you to set the parameter to specific conditions and to more than one input or output. When the HydroRanger 200 HMI is in PROGRAM mode, you can change these parameter values and set operating conditions.

The transmit pulse consists of one or more electrical “shot” pulses, which are supplied to the transducer connected to the HydroRanger 200 HMI terminals. The transducer fires an acoustic “shot” for each electrical pulse supplied. After each shot is fired, sufficient time is provided for echo (shot reflection) reception before the next (if applicable) shot is fired.

20 dB). It gives a more reliable operation in applications where the proximity of power cables, variable speed drives, etc. would have caused problems. If you are installing a new HydroRanger 200 HMI system and an extension is required, we strongly recommend that you use a good quality screened, twisted pair cable. If the integral transducer cable is used, you only need to connect the HydroRanger 200 HMI and benefit from its superior performance.
If you are replacing an older Siemens Milltronics Ultrasonic Level Controller with a new HydroRanger 200 HMI where an RG62 co-axial extension is fitted, and you are unable to replace the extension with a new cable, please refer to the connection diagram below.
