CONFIG.TXT
This file (if it exists on the drive) will be read only when the controller is powered up.
So insert the drive while the controller is not powered. Then apply power to the con-
troller.
This file changes the controller configuration using the following file format (one item
per line):
-
Configuration Parameter Number,Configuration Parameter Value
So for example to change the controller settings for a datalogger sample interval of 60
seconds, with “K” type thermocouple, with a maximum user temperature of 1050°C
and with a kiln power rating of 3.0kW:
-
The contents of CONFIG.TXT would be:
-
50,60
0,0
2,1050
14,30
Note: out of range values will not be stored (ignored).
Note: refer to the Installation Section for a full list of configuration parameters.
It is best to store this file on a separate drive and remove it from the controller after
use. In this way unnecessary re
-
configuring is avoided the next time the controller is
powered on. This drive can be used to re
-
configure multiple controllers.
