Use of AnaWin3 does not eliminate the need for appropriate
external, independent safety devices.
For additional process safety, use AnaWin3 to automatically
reload your desired operating parameters after a power failure.
Please contact Watlow Anafaze immediately if you have
questions about system safety.
Installation
In this section you will configure the PPC-2000 system(s) to
communicate, install the AnaWin3 software and configure it,
and then test communications. If you are installing more than
four PPC-2000 systems to communicate with one PC you will
need to install the software before setting up the communica-
tions parameters on the fifth controller and on. See Setting
Programmable Modbus Addresses on page 8 for more infor-
mation on setting up more than four controllers.
Configuring your Controllers
For multiple PPC installations, each PPC must have a unique
network address. As many as 32 PPC systems may communi-
cate on a network. Network addresses 1 through 4 can be set
using rotary switch position A through D on the processor
module.
Communication parameter changes do not take affect until the
controller is reset or its power is cycled, and only with the ap-
propriate rotary switch settings on the Processor module.
Install the AnaWin3 software and use setting
D
and PPCCom-
Su to program the remaining addresses (5-32). See Setting
Programmable Modbus Addresses on page 8.
!
NOTE!
Do not cycle power with the rotary switch set
in positions E-G unless specifically directed
to do so. These positions are used for clear-
ing memory and other functions. Parameter
settings can be lost. See the PPC-2000 User’s
Guide for more on these switch settings.
