4 In the Taskbar, click Start >Run >A:\install.
5 Press y for yes to the prompt, “Are you connecting Gilbarco pumps to any COM ports?”
6 Enter the COM port number, when prompted.
7 Edit the parameter file to match your site setup when prompted by the Installation program.
You can edit this file later if necessary, in the XBIN directory.
8 If you have multiple COM ports for Gilbarco pumps, enter the next COM port number when
prompted, or press ENTER to end the program.
When SC III is started, it will automatically start the gilpump program on the selected ports.
The session will be titled as “Gilbarco pump session on COM x” where “x” is the selected
COM port.
The parameter file is C:SC3\XBIN\GILPUMP.A0x, where x is the selected COM port. The
file can be edited with any text editor.
Checking the Software Installation
To check the installation, proceed as follows:
1 Start the SC III program.
2 If the pumps do not come up, switch to the Gilbarco Pump session window and press 1. If
there are communication problems, error messages will be displayed on the screen. A message
will be displayed at least once every 10 seconds.
3 Press 2 to show all messages; successful or otherwise. If none of the pumps come up, check
the number of site polls. If it is 0, then the site is not polling for any pumps in the range
specified in the parameter file. If some come up but others do not, verify if those addresses are
in the range shown in the parameter file.
NT Applications
For NT applications, the Gilbarco pumps are controlled by the Gilbarco program, which uses a
GILPUMP.axx parameter file that is located in C:SC3\XBIN\. NT applications do not
require a.Bxx file.
Note: The gilpump program only reads this parameter file when it starts, so you must restart
the program, using ALT-R, whenever a change is made.
The GILPUMP.axx file contains the following parameters. These are sample settings and the
information after “=” may vary between systems.
