Setting Up A New System

Notice the function buttons at the bottom of the

screen. Users setting up a new system should,

typically, start configuring the system with the F1

function button and work progressively to the right,

one function button at a time.

F1: Config System

Overpressure Limit

This is the pressure limit of the entire system. If

any pressure sensor in the system reaches or

exceeds this pressure, a system overpressure

fault is issued by the software and the pumps

configured for that gun are halted. This fault

cannot be disabled.

Foldback Pressure

When the outbound pressure of the pump ex-

ceeds this setting, the software starts a gradual

slowdown of the pumps (while keeping the ratio

at its proper setpoint). This prevents nuisance

overpressure faults when fluid pressures spike

during load sequences, etc. It is expressed in

pounds per square inch (psi).

Sensor Limit

This is the maximum pressure that the pressure

sensors in the system can detect. It is expressed

in pounds per square inch (psi).

USER INTERFACE

SOFTWARE

When the RCS-2 is started up, users are presented

with the main user interface screen. An example

is shown below:

Anywhere from 0 to 8 guns may be displayed

when the system first starts up, depending on how

the system was last used.

The following information is available on the Main

Screen:

• Which channels are configured to which

guns

• Currently running job number for the gun

• The next (queued) job for the gun

• The mode that the gun is configured for

• The current status for the gun (Running,

halted, faulted, etc.)

• Status of the trigger input

• Target flow rate for the gun

• Actual flow rate for the gun

• Actual flow rate of the master channel

• Actual flow rate of the slave channel

• Requested ratio for the gun (if 2 channel

gun)

• Actual ratio for the gun (if 2 channel gun)

• Volume remaining in pressure pot (or pots,

if 2 channel)

• Which, if any, forces are active
