Software Overview
Introduction
The Software Overview explains what information the EGCP-2 will display, and
describes the configuration items in each menu. Application Manual 26175
shows the different combinations of discrete inputs and configuration settings for
the various operating modes.
The software used in the EGCP-2 uses state machine logic to operate all modes.
State machine logic relies on discrete inputs and specific operating conditions to
trigger a sequence of operations.
Status Screens
There are nine status menus in the EGCP-2. Use the status keys on the face of
the EGCP-2 to access these status menus. The information in the status menus
is dynamic and updates about every 200 milliseconds.
When the EGCP-2 is initially powered up, it will default to the System Status
Screen. Below is an example of what the Screen may look like. The System
Status Screen can be accessed while in any other status screen by pressing the
SYSTEM key.
