  • Patent number: 5483109
    Abstract: An apparatus has a liquid level sender providing a sender output signal which varies with a measure of a liquid and which varies with a slosh of the liquid. A main control circuit couples and decouples the sender output signal to a process circuit, the process circuit provides an output signal to a liquid level indicator. Two monitor circuits monitor the output of the process circuit and provide a control signal to the main control circuit if the sender output signal varies from the output of the process circuit by more than a predetermined amount. A switch within the main control circuit decouples the sender output signal from the process circuit in response to the control signal. Sample circuitry within the process circuit drives the output of the process circuit in accordance with a sampled signal when the sender out signal is decoupled from the process circuit.
