CONFIGURATION OF A SPEEDSYS300 ODS301
NOTE: Different language and update versions of the language pack file are available. For
example,
language_eng_1.13_Meggitt.lngpack
is the latest English
language version (as of September 2021).
If a new language pack file becomes available, it can be used by simply copying it to the same
folder as the
SpeedSys300.exe executable/program file (see 4.2 Software installation ), and
removing the earlier version. The next time that the SpeedSys300 software starts, it will
automatically use the new language pack.
4.3 Software user interface
The SpeedSys300 software user interface consists of a single main window with a multiple
window tabbed document interface that provides the controls for configuring, operating and
managing SpeedSys300 ODS301 modules (see
Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-3 ).
Looking from top to bottom and left to right, the SpeedSys300 user interface consists of a title
bar, a menu bar, a series of tabbed windows (left) and an overall module information and
controls window (right).
The series of tabbed windows (left) are Device, Measurement, Output, Diagnostics,
Process data, Device status, Report and Event log.
4.4 Getting started
The SpeedSys300 software automatically detects the SpeedSys300 ODS301 module
connected to the computer running the software, so it is recommended that the module is
connected to the computer and that the power supply to the module is on before starting the
SpeedSys300 software:
1- Connect the computer to the SpeedSys300 ODS301 module using the USB Type-A to
USB Mini-B cable supplied with the module (or equivalent).
The SpeedSys300 ODS301 module’s USB Mini-B connector is located on the front panel
of the module.
2- Turn on the power supply to the SpeedSys300 ODS301 module.
3- Start the SpeedSys300 software, for example, by double-clicking the SpeedSys300.exe
executable/program file.
The SpeedSys300 software’s main window is displayed (see
Figure 4-1 ).
