Save Gauges / Clear Gauges
The FIC scans for the connected gauges on every power cycle (. Modbus address 32 through 48). The
Data Pro provides the option of
‘Save Gauges’
which enables the FIC to bypass the default scan-
range and to check gauges only at previously configured addresses. Saving gauge addresses reduces
the startup and scanning time so the gauge tabs come up quickly in the event of the Data Pro
application restart. The
‘Save Gauges’
turns to
‘Clear Gauges’
once the application completes the
execution of the task (Figure 32 ). The user has to click on
‘Clear Gauges’
before making any new
gauge connections so that the FIC scans the complete Modbus address range from 32 through 48
detecting new gauge connections. The text
‘Save Gauges’
on the FIC status screen indicates that
gauge addresses are not saved and the FIC is in the correct state to detect new gauge connections.
** CAUTION **
THE FIC STATUS WINDOW SHOULD DISPLAY
‘SAVE GAUGES’
BEFORE ADDING OR
CHANGING GAUGES.
