the ECC/WCC II system, the fi le is in the proper place. If it was
created on another computer and saved on a fl oppy disk, the fi le
can be copied to the hard disk using the following procedure:
Step #1: Insert the disk that has the AoLA fi les in drive A and
close the drive door.
Step #2 : From the ECC/WCC II Main Menu, access the System
Parameters I Screen and sign on with a level 3 password. Then
return to the Main Menu.
Step #3: From the Main Menu, go to the Utility Screen; then go
to the WCC/SCC File Management Screen.
Step #4: Fill out the screen to copy a fi le from disk A to disk C.
In the following example, we are copying a fi le named “sample.
txt” from the disk in drive A to the disk in drive C.
---------------------------------------------
File name: a:sample.txt
New fi le name: c:sample.txt
Direction: WCC
Action: Copy
---------------------------------------------
File name: a:sample.txt
Type the name of the fi le that is to be copied and press .
The “a:” specifi es the drive that has the disk with the fi le to be
copied. If this is omitted, the system assumes the default drive.
New fi le name: c:sample.txt
Type the new fi le name and press . The “c:” specifi es
the drive which has the disk which will receive the fi le. If this is
omitted, the system assumes the default drive.
Direction: WCC
The direction category allows you to specify where the fi le
management operation is to be performed. The following choices
are available:
SCC ->WCC This option can be performed at the remote (SCC II)
computer only. The fi le to be copied is at the remote
computer (SCC II), and the new fi le will be written on
the disk at the on site computer (WCC II).
WCC This choice can be selected for two different
situations. If you are at the remote computer, you may
select WCC and copy an existing fi le at the on-site
computer to a new fi le at the on-site computer. Or
this choice is selected if you want to perform a copy
command while you are physically at the on-site
computer.
After the AoLA fi le has been renamed and located in the proper
place on the hard disk of the ECC/WCC II, use the following
procedure to cause the ECC/WCC II to read the fi le from the
Custom Screen.
Step #1: After the fi le has been transferred, press
several times until the cursor is back at the Utility Screen. Then
place the cursor above Custom Screens and press
.
Step #2: Type the name of the fi le without the “txt” extension
and press . In our example, the word “sample” would be
entered.
Step #3: Press several times until the cursor is back on
the Main Menu. Then access the Custom Screen again. This forces
the system to read the fi le from the disk.
The AoLA image will now appear as the Custom Screen on the
ECC/WCC II system. You can place the values of points within the
ECC/WCC II system on the screen. In other words, you can place
an analog value such as temperature or pressure or a binary value
such as fan status on the screen. Up to 100 values may be placed
on the screen.
Toggle Updating
The values of the ECC/WCC II points on the Custom Screen are
“dynamic.” That is, the values on the screen will change as the value
of the point changes. However, you have the option of “freezing”
the points at their present value by pressing
and while
the Custom Screen is displayed on the monitor. To return to “live”
data, press
and again.
Place Points on the Custom Screen
To place points on the Custom Screen, fi rst access the Custom
Screen showing the AoLA image. Pressing
once allows
you to move the cursor by using the arrow keys. When the cursor
is at the place where you want the point value to be displayed,
press
again, and the four slashes (////) will appear on the
screen. Then type the point designation and press . For
example, if you want the value from satellite #2 analog input #4,
enter 2A4. Then press
, and the point value will appear
on the screen.
