PROFILES
Profiles are created in Microsoft Excel and downloaded into the 6600 through the COM1
port on your PC using the Hyperterminal program that is normally available on all PC’s.
4.1 WHAT IS A PROFILE.
A profile is a set of up to 50 points that tell the 6600 what you would want it to do at each
point. Each point consists of 10 parameters: 1) Pt units, 2) Pt mode, 3) Pt target value, 4)
Ps1 units, 5) Ps1 mode, 6) Ps1 target value, 7) Rate target value, 8) Ps2 units, 9) Ps2 mode
and 10) Ps2 target value. These 10 parameters are defined by you in the Excel program.
A total of 15 such profiles can reside in the 6600 at any time. Each profile is identified by a
number between 1 to 15 and also a name which can have up to 12 characters. The profile
number and the name are also part of the profile that is created in Excel.
A typical profile named “Sample” is shown below as it would appear in Excel.
