ACQINIT allows to change the parameters of the I/O module box.
Exemplary configuration
1
Go to the DOS level at MCS100E. (
2
Disable watchdogs (
3
Set
all
I/O module boxes to the “inactive” mode.
For this purpose press each pin switch for approx. 1 sec (for the temperature controller:
Approx. 5 sec).
The green LEDs are now flashing 1*.
These boards are in the “not active” condition.
4
Press pin switch of the board
that is to be configured
once again.
Its green LED is now flashing 2*.
This board is now ready for configuration and all of the following actions have an effect
on just this very board.
Caution:
Please observe that just
one
board may be configured. Thus, only
one
green
LED 2* may be flashing.
All
other
green LEDs must be flashing 1*.
5
Enter via external keyboard:
ACQINIT /C2 /I5 <ENTER> (Note: Space preceding /)
The actual configuration of the board is presented.
With a temperature controller, e.g. the temperature setting is stated in the line: TCtrl :
185
To
set the temperature to 100 °C,
type: ACQINIT /C2 /I5 /T100 <ENTER>
“T100” sets the temperature to 100 °C and the values of the re-configured board are
presented.
To
set a (new) board address
, type: ACQINIT /C2 /I5 /A31 <ENTER>
“A31” sets the address to 31 and the values of the re-configured board are presented.
To enter a new
remark
, use the DOS command SET:
“SET ACQINIT=temperature controller for heated tube 1” <ENTER>
Upon ACQINIT /C2 /I5 /S <ENTER>, the text “temperature controller for heated tube 1”
is presented.
Note:
Parameters that have NOT been entered remain UNCHANGED. For boards that are not
used, standard values will be set automatically.
6
Press the pin switch of the configured temperature controller once again.
The green LED is now on, continuously
7
The board has its new configuration
8
Configure next board, if required
9
As soon as the last board is configured: Press the individual pin switches of the
remaining boards one after the other two times for 1 sec. each (temperature controller:
Approx. 5 sec).
Now, these green LEDs are also on, continuously.
