5.3 User Types
Users of the system are classified by User Type. For security, each User Type has a unique PIN
code associated with it and different levels of access. User Types and their basic attributes are:
User
– This is generally the pilot who has been given permission to use the system.
Manager
– This is the owner or operator of the facility.
FEC
– FEC have defined access to certain options (e.g. reset the Operators PIN).
System
–
Machine to Machine system interface for data logging
OEM
– The Original Equipment Manufacturer has defined access to perform diagnostic and
support options.
Each type of user has a PIN access code and are arranged in an hierarchical manner
– User has
the fewest privileges, OEM the most, to perform a variety of tasks on the system.
5.4 Modes of Operation
After the initial start-up sequence, when the system checks out its sub-systems, the RLC enters its
operational state continuously monitoring all of the triggers that can activate channels or provide
responses to either the Bluetooth or Cellular Radio Module interfaces.
The exception to this is when a user enters the menu mode from the keypad to perform setup or
testing operations. During this access all other inputs are ignored.
To avoid t
he RLC becoming ‘stuck’ in this state, after 10 minutes the RLC will return to its main
operational state. As an additional security measure, if PINs are not entered within 5 seconds of
each other, the screen times out and returns to the main menu. Also, if the wrong code is given
this is advised and a return made to the main programme.
Warning - Once the Menu Mode is selected, the system no longer monitors the VHF or Cell
receivers and will not respond to remote commands. All setups should be performed when it is
known that no movements requiring the lighting controller are required
5.5 Channels
The RLC uses the concept of ‘Channels’. Channels are activated via Start-Up, Inputs, the Keypad,
VHF or SMS. Channels are then mapped to control which relays are activated.
The default settings are as follows:
Keypad Action
1
VHF Action
SMS
Default Relay Activated
Function Key # 1 Pressed
3 ‘clicks’
Channel 1
Relay 1 activated
Function Key # 2 Pressed
5 ‘clicks’
Channel 2
Relay 2 activated
Function Key # 3 Pressed
7 ‘clicks’
Channel 3
Relay 3 activated
<CAN> Manager only
6 or 8 ‘clicks’
Channels Off
All relays de-activated
Notes:
1) 3, 5 & 7 clicks are the default but can be changed to any desired unique number per
channel
2) Any combination of relays can be activated instead of the defaults (see later section)
3) If Timeout Alert is active, The Winsock is flashed according to the parameters set through
SMS (default 10 minutes).
1
By default, no PIN is required to activate channels via the keypad. This can be changed via SMS
