4.8 Computer System
Communication
The computer communicates with the sensor
system through an Ethernet Local Area Network
(LAN) cable. Connect the Category 5 (Cat-5)
network cable from the computer network switch
to the RJ-45 connector located on the side of the
sensor box labeled Computer Network.
SuperFlow WinDyn 4.0 systems use TCP/IP
network protocol. WinDyn 3.2.R2 uses NetBEUI
protocol.
Software
SuperFlow provides a USB thumb-drive containing the WinDyn software. The WinDyn software was
installed and configured on your computer system by factory personnel. The thumb-drive is only
necessary if you must recover or reinstall the Windyn software. Windyn software is also installed in a
SuperFlow System Recovery folder on the computers hard drive, along with manuals and other pertinent
documentation.
4.9 System Cable Connections
Open the sensor box. Verify all cables are firmly seated and connected. Close the box, lock it, and put the
keys in a safe place.
NOTE:
The power supply used in the sensor box and the console is 12 volt switching power supply.
Voltage checkpoints for both power supplies are provided on labels affixed to their case. Both use
universal input power supplies 100 - 240 VAC.
NOTE:
All system cables and their connection ports on the sensor box are labled. The cables are labeled
on each end to match the connection port they are to be connected to.
Power
Plug the computer and sensor box power
cables into a convenient outlet. The power
connection for the sensor box is on the bottom.
SuperFlow recommends plugging both units into
a suitable surge suppression circuit and using an
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) or other power
backup for power outages.
