Project Function (“Select project”) 

 
A project is a collection of pre-defined valves and valve 

presettings which can be worked off one by one without 

having to select valve and valve presetting from database 
first. 
A project can be created in two ways: 

  with user software and then uploaded onto device 

  with device itself by selection menu item “New project”

- a new riser can be defined to store measurement, or 

- function can be left without storing measurement 

The measurement stays in the buffer memory of the 

BasicMes-2 until another riser is selected from the projects 

database or another valve is selected from the valve 

database or the device is switched off
