Abstract
A service module is for a level measuring device, which after being connected to the level measuring device can identify automatically the level measuring device, the operating program version used by the level measuring device and a status message generated by the level measuring device. Then the service module determines on the basis of the status message, what data is required from the level measuring device in order to identify a status of the level measuring device, which status is associated with the status message. This data is received on a data storage unit, which unit can be analysed in the laboratory. A service engineer is not required on site.
