Start Up
Start Up Sequence
• The program checks the computer system hardware, the access to
the system disk files, and the presence of the software key.
• The program verifies communications to the controllers in the sys-
tem and the version of the controllers.
• Job Directory screen appears.
• The program prompts for the job to run. ANASOFT program is sup-
plied with a job named DEFAULT which contains all default con-
trol parameters and sets all control outputs off. When starting the
first time, enter the job name DEFAULT.
• For systems with 8LS, 12LS, CLS, or MLS controllers, the program
prompts whether to download parameters to the controllers or
upload parameters from the controllers. When SYSTEM 32 con-
trollers are in the system, it automatically downloads.
WARNING
When controllers are in control of a process,
upload to install parameters into the ANASOFT
operating program. Downloading will install fac-
tory default values that will shut down the control
of the process. For Initial testing in the Edit mode,
enter Download.
• After the downloading sequence is complete, the program displays
the Overview screen. If there is a problem in the program start up,
see start up errors in this section.
