Tip
Density damping affects all process variables that are calculated from line density.
Procedure
Set Density Damping to the value you want to use.
The default value is 0 seconds. The range is 0 to 60 seconds.
Interaction between Density Damping and Added Damping
When the mA output is configured to report density, both Density Damping and Added
Damping are applied to the reported density value.
Density Damping controls the rate of change in the value of the process variable in
transmitter memory. Added Damping controls the rate of change reported via the mA
output.
If mA Output Process Variable is set to Density, and both Density Damping and Added Damping are
set to non-zero values, density damping is applied first, and the added damping
calculation is applied to the result of the first calculation. This value is reported over the
mA output.

Overview
Density Cutoff Low specifies the lowest density value that will be reported as measured. All
density values below this cutoff will be reported as 0.
Procedure
Set Density Cutoff Low to the value you want to use.
The default value is 0.2 g/cm³. The range is 0.0 g/cm³ to 0.5 g/cm³.
