Hi
I've got a Tank of 100 L connected to crio analog module as 4-20ma. Labview software is interpreting the right volume of water present in the system.
Question
Now I need to add one more tank of 100L so that total capacity is 200L. How I can add second tank to the system so that my calculations can reflect 200L. Moreover there is no signal coming from Tank2. I just need to change the signal condition for Tank1 so that
At 20 mA output should be 200L
AT 4 mA output should be 0L
Tank1 & Tank2 are connected mechanically using a hose.
Regards
Imran

Scaling![]()
You state that the tanks are physically connected: thus no major software cange needed.
So just adapt you scale so that 20mA indicates 200l instead of 100l.
Should not be necessary to modify the 4mA if you have previously set it upto indicate zero.
