Section 4 MC-III™ EXP Flow Analyzer
MC-III Main Screen
The MC-III Main menu screen (Figure 4.15) is the configuration hub of the MC-III EXP. From the Main
screen, users can
•
review all current instrument settings and flow readings
• check the log archive and instrument status
•
access all submenus for changing configurable parameters
• reset the total to zero
Figure 4.15—MC-III Main screen provides direct access to all menu functions using the scrolling menu bar at
the left side of the screen.
Data Display and Updates
Each time the software polls the instrument, a small icon appears briefly in the lower left corner of the screen.
If the “Live Updates” checkbox in the lower right corner of the screen is checked, the instrument settings and
the LCD displays will automatically update with each poll.
“Live Updates” Checkbox
The “Live Updates” option is enabled by default. However, in the event that slow communication speeds are
used or the system times out frequently, the user can uncheck the “Live Updates” checkbox and periodically
query the system by clicking on the LCD graphic on the Main screen.
Reset Flow Total Button
The flow total can be reset to zero at any time by clicking on the “Reset Flow Total” button.
Scroll Bar
A scroll bar at the left side of the screen (Figure 4.15) gives the user easy access to any of seven configuration
menus and two log archive screens (see
page 54 and page 55
). Using these menus, the user can change all
configurable parameters of the instrument. Once the instrument has been configured, the Main screen access
should always be used for changing individual parameters while retaining all other configuration settings.
