F9: Read file – This button reads in the totalization
data from the internal flash drive, the floppy disk
drive, a USB memory drive, or the CDROM and
sends them to the interface card to be stored in
non-volatile memory.
F10: Save To file – This button reads all totaliza-
tion data currently stored in non-volatile memory
on the interface card and stores it on the media
selected by the user (internal flash, floppy drive,
USB memory, or CDROM). The data is stored in
a file named
totals.par .
F11: Pot Reset – This button allows the user to
reset the volume counters for pressure pot track-
ing. This is typically done when the pots are filled.
F10: Trigger Log
With this feature, users can monitor and record
the trigger on and off times as well as the fluid
that flowed during those trigger on times for up
to 200 successive triggers. When this feature is
selected, the user will be prompted to select which
gun they wish to monitor. Recording of data will
not start until the Start Logging (F1) button is
pushed. Keep in mind that data will not appear in
the screen until the second on-trigger (on dwell)
event has occurred to allow the software the ability
to record the time of the first off-trigger (off dwell)
event. The job number that was running during
the trigger is also recorded. The status of three
flags are also recorded with each event. These
flags reflect the status of the three spare system
digital inputs. Note that volumes are rounded to
the nearest cc. The latest events are displayed
at the top of the screen and the older events are
pushed off of the bottom of the screen (but can be
accessed by using the Windows scroll bar). Values
can also be saved to writeable media by using
the F10 key but recording must first be stopped
to allow saving of this data. (Refer to "Appendix
M" for more details on how to use this feature.)
F11: Color Changer
An optional color change sequencer may have
been included with the controller. If it was in-
clud-ed, the F11 button will indicate as such on the
main screen. If the F11 key is blank, your system
does not have this option.
When this function is selected, the operator is first
prompted for the gun number they wish to view
or edit the sequence for, they are then prompted
for which Job Number they wish to view and/or
edit the sequences of, and last, they are asked if
they want to view/edit the sequence for flushing
or filling. (There is a separate flush sequence
and fill sequence stored for every Job Number
and for every gun.)
