6.3.2.6 Saving TCS Configuration 

 
While saving project information saves computer settings, site names and controller type 

information it does not save information specific to each individual controller. A project may have more 
than one TCS controller and each controller can have it’s own configuration, setpoints, etc. Individual 
controller information is saved by creating a device archive. A device archive uploads all information 
from the TCS controller and stores it in a file. This file includes the controller configuration and 
setpoints.  

After all setpoints and options are changed to the desired configuration click on the Save Device 

Archive button on the tool bar to save the device archive. All of the controller information will be 
uploaded from the controller and saved to a file. 

If any changes are made to the TCS configuration you will be asked before exiting if you would 

like to save the device configuration. If you want to save the changes click OK otherwise click cancel.  

 

6.3.2.7 Loading TCS Configuration.  

 
To reload the device configuration to the setting stored in the device archive click on the load 

device archive button. The device archive will be downloaded to the controller and all setting will be 
restored to the setting stored in the device archive. 

If a special configuration is to be loaded Click on the load device archive button and use the 

appropriate button on the load configuration file screen to find the special configuration. Special 
configuration files are stored on the TCS22 Master Controller Software CD under a folder named for the 
special project.  A text file will also be in this folder detailing the changes made to the special 
configuration. 

 

6.4 

TCS Controller Information Screens 

 
 

Each screen displays different related information about the TCS22 and connected air 

conditioners. There are eleven different information screens. Clicking on the labeled tabs changes 
displayed screen and data  
 
The eleven screens tabs are: 
 

Main 
Setpoints 
Override #1 
Alarms 
Alarm Log 
Offsets 
Misc. 
Trend 
DialOut 
Notes
