Cursor control keys. These are not only used to shift the cursor left and right, but also
between the (max) three data lines by “rolling over” the line ends.
2.2 Power Up the System
Before any measurement can be performed with DipCheck, the system has to be powered up, using
the central power switch, usually located in the driver’s cabin.
NOTE: Leave the system switched off while on the road. Switch it off for 5 seconds before
any transaction if it was inadvertently left on.
After a few seconds, the program starts up with a logo screen, which is displayed while the system
is performing an extensive self check (see Picture 2):

When the self-tests have been terminated (after approx. 10 s), the version of the software is displayed:

By pressing the [END] key or automatically after approx. 3-5 seconds, the actual loading status of
the compartments of the tank truck is displayed (see Picture 5).
2.3 Display of Loading Status
In the basic state, the system always displays the loading status of all compartments of the vehicle.
The following picture shows an examples for a four compartment vehicle.
Picture 5 Loading Status Display
The liquid volume contained in each compartment is displayed as a black column, the height of
which corresponds to the percentage of the total volume for this compartment. In the upper text line,
the product loaded (or previously loaded, if the compartment is empty) is displayd. The numeric values in the second row are the volume in cubic metres (or thousands of litres).
Finally, a small rectangle symbol at the bottom of each compartment area shows the filling status of
the pipework below the bottom valve (if the sensors are installed). If the rectangle is “hollow” (as
shown in the picture for compartments 2, 3 and 4), the pipework is empty, whereas in case of a “full”
rectangle, which disappears in case of the partially filled compartment 1 of the example, the pipework is at least partially filled.
