6 MLS User’s Guide

Introduction

Front Panel or Computer Operation: You can set up and run the MLS
Controller from the processor module's front panel or from a local or
remote computer. Watlow-Anafaze offers ANASOFT, our IBM-AT or
IBM-PC compatible software you can use to operate the MLS.
ANASOFT has these features:

Graphic Trend Plotting

Process Overviews

Printouts

Data Archiving in Lotus-Compatible Files

Multiple Job Storage: You can store up to 8 jobs in protected memory
and access them by entering a single job number. Each job is a set of
operating conditions, including setpoints and alarms--so if a single oven
produces multiple products, simply enter one job number to set up every
loop.

Dual Outputs Standard for 16 Loops: The 16-loop MLS Controller
includes dual control outputs for each loop, and a second set of control
constants for heating and cooling applications.

Flexible Outputs Standard for 32 Loops: The 32-loop MLS
Controller is factory set for a single heat output for each input. Outputs
for loops 17-32 can be assigned as second outputs for loops 1-16.
