Working with Thyvisor
The below window is shown
Two operating modes are available:
• On line (with device connection),
• Off line (building of setting file without connection to SME70 device).
ON LINE
Communication
The following operation may be performed when the communication with device is active:
• In standing connection mode an automatic communication session is activated; the configuration
file stays open until the “Save” or “Close” commands are issued.
• In Upload or Download data an automatic communication session is activated only for a short time
required for send or receive data to/from device; at the end of the data transfer all the files are
closed.
Standing connection
The communication must be open with the
Auto open
command in the
Network
tab
.
The
Serial
must be activated; the communication parameters can be set (using the button “Serial
Port” in the tab “Network”) - baud rate, parity, number of data bits, number of stop bits, Modbus ad-
dress, as well as various parameters of timers useful for serial communication.
Moreover, inside the
Auto Open
upper panel, is possible to select (tick on the Reading settings) if the
settings must be updated.
[1]
• With “Reading settings” selection the communication session starts and the reading progress is
shown with a status bar; at last the device type is highlighted (left side on the bottom of desktop);
by means of the Windows commands the menu may be resized as much you like.

• Without “Reading settings” selection the communication session starts without reading the set-
tings; they are updated when the relative menus are accessed. This operating mode is very fastest
and so it is advantageous when the settings updating is not needed.
Note 1 To change the setting you need to work at session level 1; at level 0 (user) reading settings can not be disabled
Note 2 The shown images explain some menu levels; all examples are indicatives and unrealistic.
