Dear boazeventall ,

if your level transmitter is connected to one of the analog input channel of your PLC, yes you monitor the level of water in your tank. The analog input channel converts the analog signal into digits. These digits you just need to scale to your physical range.

Please take a look at this thread.

use a scaling block to convert analog signal counts to your engineering units.
