SYSTem INFORmATION
Figure 2: System form
The System form includes the global system parameters that apply to the unit in general.
Unit Name
The Unit Name is the text description of the SCADA 3000. It can be up to 24 characters long.
This is automatically filled in from the information you provided when setting up the unit on
your computer. When SCADA 3000 sends a cover page with a Fax transmission or alerts an
alphanumeric pager, the Unit Description is sent as part of the basic information.
Unit ID Number
The Unit ID Number is the identification number of the SCADA 3000 and can be up to 16
digits long. This number should be programmed to be the same as the telephone number
where the unit is installed. The Unit ID Number serves several purposes:
1. It’s the first thing spoken by SCADA 3000 during any voice call: “Hello, this is
(Unit ID Number).”
2. When SCADA 3000 sends a cover page with a Fax transmission or alerts an
alphanumeric pager, the Unit ID Number is sent as part of the information.
Slave Address
This is the modbus address of the SCADA 3000 unit. It is set by default and should not be
changed unless you are using multiple units on a radio network. On a radio network each unit
must have a unique slave address. The Slave ID can be set to any number between 1 and 247.
CLOCK
Unit Date & Time
The date and time must be programmed into the unit for it to function properly. The time
should reflect the actual time where the unit is geographically installed (eg., PST, CST, EST).
A button labeled “Set to PC” is located next to the time box. Clicking this button will set the
date and time to the present values on your computer.
Auto Daylight Savings
This instructs SCADA 3000 to automatically correct the time twice a year for daylight savings.
