Manufacturer Narrative

Updated block: b5 per data log analysis, the level log shows many alert probe status changes from coupled to uncoupled.This will cause a 'level not attached' message and a 'level not attached alert' if the level detection is turned on.This usually indicates a problem with the level pad placement or the probe itself (less likely).The log confirms the complaint.
