IMPORTANT NOTE:
The default path for the saved file depends on the MasterLink version used. The files are
automatically saved in the main installation directory of each version. Make sure to take note of the name of the file
and the location chosen.
3. Click
Read and Save Data to File
.
4. Click
OK
when saving the configuration is complete.
Save the location file with a different name (optional)
New locations and new LevelMasters are saved automatically in the MasterLink default file (called FirstSetup) unless the file is
saved with a different name. If there are several large locations with many tanks, it is recommended to create different location
files. If desired, the file created during configuration can be given a name different than the default. Note that if the location file
saved in this procedure is the last viewed file, it is automatically reopened the next time MasterLink is started. If additional
LevelMasters are added to the same location in the procedure in section 5.4,
Configuring additional LevelMasters
, there is no
need to perform this procedure again.
To save the location file with a different name:
1. Select
Location
from the file menu at the top of the window.
2.
On the main MasterLink screen, on the top tool bar, click the diskette icon. The file browser displays the main MasterLink
directory, the default directory for location files.
3.
Type the desired file name and click
Save
. Take note of the name and location of the saved file (if not using the default
folder).
Restore field wiring connections
When all configuration is completed and saved, and calibration (if performed) is verified, ensure that the field wiring connections
are restored.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If the electronics boards are removed for configuration, final verification of communication on
the RS-485 bus will need to take place once all boards are installed back into their enclosures and the field wiring
connections are restored. The first LevelMaster must also be connected to the host controller. Verification of
communication can be done by checking if measurement readings are received error-free by the host controller
and displayed on the host controller interface software.
To establish and verify field wiring connections:
1.
Reinsert the electronics board in its enclosure.
2.
Connect the board to the sensor.
3.
Insert terminal connectors into the power and communication ports.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Communication port LEDs will not light up until communication begins with the flow computer
or remote controller. When the flow computer or remote controller port is activated and assigned to the
LevelMaster, LEDs D19 and D18 should indicate receiving and sending data from and to the host controller.
Communication status can also be monitored from the controller LCD display, so that there is no need to keep the
enclosure of the LevelMaster removed.
4.
Reinstall and secure the enclosure cover.
5.
If this is a standalone installation, the configuration is completed.
6.
If additional LevelMasters are being installed, configure the next LevelMaster.
7.
Proceed to configure the host controller for communication with the LevelMaster(s) in section 6,
Configuring the host
Configuring additional LevelMasters
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Make sure that the units have the correct RS-485 termination configuration. The last unit
must terminate the bus.
