Console Computer
The
console
or
console computer
is the PC computer used to set up a PowerMACS system. It is not
needed for automatic running, but it can optionally be used to monitor the system and to collect and
present various data using ToolsTalk PowerMACS.
One console computer can be used for several systems, if these are hooked up on the same computer
network, but only one system at a time.
ToolsTalk PowerMACS
ToolsTalk PowerMACS is the graphical user interface of the PowerMACS 4000 system. It is a Windows

4000 system and can be used to monitor the system and to collect and present various data.
Setup and Tables

setup
is a group of data that completely describes the system. The system uses the information in the
setup
to know what to do. A
setup
could also be called a
configuration
. A
setup
can be stored on the
console computer in a file on a hard disk or on a floppy. It can be downloaded to the system, or uploaded
for storing or alteration.
A
setup
is made up of
tables
, each containing data for a specific topic, e.g. tightening program, SPC

Setups are manipulated with the ToolsTalk PowerMACS application program on the console computer. It
is possible to export and import certain tables, but the setup itself is a complete package.
