Configuration Parameters

The “tokpump.axx” file contains the following parameters:

Note: These are sample settings and the information after ‘=’ may vary between systems.

“FIRST_ADDRESS=” and “LAST_ADDRESS=” refer to the pump address range to be
controlled.

ID=Tokheim Pumps 1-16

FIRST_ADDRESS=1

LAST_ADDRESS=16

FIRST_CHANNEL_LAST_ADDRESS=16

For the first 16 pumps, set the address inside the pump to the required pump number on the
system. For example, inside pump 5, set the address to 5. Each TOKPUMP session can only
address 16 pumps.

If the site has more than 16 Tokheim pumps, you will use a ‘Y’ Cable (C05878) and connect
pumps to both channels. For example, if the site has 24 Tokheim pumps, set the parameters as
follows:

FIRST_ADDRESS=1

LAST_ADDRESS=24

FIRST_CHANNEL_LAST_ADDRESS=12

Pumps 1 through 12 will be controlled by channel 1. The channel 1 connection will be
connected to the Tokheim 67 Interface Box for the first 12 pumps and pumps will be addressed
from 1 to 12. Pumps 13 through 24 will be controlled by channel 2. The channel 2 connection
will be connected to the Tokheim 67 Interface Box for those 12 pumps (13-24) and the pump
addresses must start at 1. In this example, pumps controlled by channel 2 will also be
addressed from 1 to 12. Pumps must be split evenly between the two channels as much as
possible.

To determine the pump number on the CFN III for the pumps controlled by channel 2, add the
FIRST_CHANNEL_LAST_ADDRESS number to the address set inside the pump. In the
example, if a pump controlled by channel 2 is set to address 8 inside the pump and the
FIRST_CHANNEL_LAST_ADDRESS is 12, that pump will be pump number 20 (8+12) on
the CFN III.
