Introduction
1.1
Scope
The purpose of the On-site commissioning procedure is to bring the VCM-3 in an operational state.
•
To check that the VCM-3 boots up correctly.
•
To verify that all channels which shall be used for monitoring the machine, are wired correctly
and responds correctly to a tap test.
•
To finalize the commissioning procedures, configure the network and define the machine
name.
Before starting these procedures, it is assumed that the physical system installation has been
checked.
See C107758.002 EN Hardware Installation Instruction
.
The test described in the following sections is based on the factory test template which is initially
loaded as part of the VCM-3 firmware. The factory monitoring (test) template is running by default in
the VCM-3 when it is started up for the on-site commissioning procedure. When the on-site
commissioning procedure has been completed the monitoring template, which will provide the VCM-
3 with the correct personality for the particular machine type can be uploaded to the VCM-3
Homepage and activated on the device.
NOTE!
The procedures described in this instruction assume that the VCM-3 has not been
commissioned before (factory settings apply).
