Pump Programming
Programming 8800 Series Units
During programming, the command code is always shown left justified in the main money
display, starting at digit position 6. Other display information will be dependent on specific
programming command codes and function codes within the command code.
Flashing fields indicate a selected parameter where data may be entered or simply inspected.
Programming parameters are shown in LCD displays as soon as the parameter selection key is
pressed. Parameters are entered into the pump control system only after
Enter
is pressed.
Totals Examples
To toggle between the grade and side selection for both
$ Total
and
Vol Total
key, press
Enter
, as found on the Manager Keypad.
Non-resettable Money and Volume Totals
The dispenser maintains a set of non-resettable totals for each dispensed fuel grade. These
totals reflect the total value of money and volume of fuel, since the dispenser was installed.
Money and Volume Totals
$ Total
is used to retrieve money totals for each fuel grade. This key does not require a
security code.
Clear
is used to exit Money Totals mode.
1
displayed in the leftmost $ Total
display indicates that this total is a non-resettable money total. The
Vol Total
key displays the
volume for the grade selected. Volume for both sides of the unit can be viewed.
Clear
is used
to exit the Volume Total mode. This convention comes from The Advantage Series product
line and is maintained here for ASC and Site Manager familiarity.
Programming Steps for 8800 Series Units
Master Reset/Warmstart
A Master Reset removes all programming, unit configuration, and dispenser memory in
addition to resetting the internal processor to an initial state. It is frequently referred to as a
Cold Start. A Warmstart (power-down and up of the unit) only resets the processor to an initial
state.
Master Resets are generally required:
• When changing the software
• To temporarily or permanently fix a locked dispenser or unusual dispenser response
A Master Reset is a powerful service tool. However, when troubleshooting a non-responsive
pump, avoid performing a Master Reset as the first step in troubleshooting. First observe the
symptoms, observe the diagnostic LEDs, and check the voltage, as appropriate. A Master
Reset will, in many cases hide problems that are being alerted by these troubleshooting aids by
resetting the pump/dispenser processor. If multiple or repetitive resets are required, investigate
a hardware or software issue.
