4 Configuring the MCT-CM
The MCT Configurator is a powerful tool that is built in to the system and allows the OEM or user to set up
control system options for the MCT runtime application. This allows for on-the-spot setup of the MCT without
the need for external hardware and software. The user or OEM must first run the Configurator prior to putting
the MCT into service in order to properly setup the system for its intended use. The MCT Configurator provides
the following functionality:
•
Set the number of control loops that the MCT will use.
•
Set the number of analog and digital inputs and outputs accessible on the system.
•
Set the number of system events accessible on the system with configurable digital output selection.
•
Set the number of alarms accessible on the system.
•
Set the number of monitor points and input type that the MCT will use.
•
‘Splash Screen’ name editing for custom OEM or user requirements.
•
Enable/disable options for runtime menu and screen availability.
•
Text editing for all system event, digital input and digital output names.
The Configurator program does not run at the same time as the main runtime software. It can be run by exiting
the runtime software via the Offline Setup\
Exit Application screen. When the “Exit application (configuration
mode startup)” option is selected, on the next power-up, the Configurator application will automatically start.
To access the Configurator:
1.
From the runtime application, press the “Home” icon to make sure you are on the main view.
2.
Press the “Menu” icon (monitor) and select Device and then Settings.
3.
From Settings, press the “Menu” icon (monitor) and select Offline and then Offline.
Press “Yes” at the prompt to go offline.
4.
From Offline, press the “Menu” icon (monitor) and select System and then Exit.
5. On the Exit
Application screen, press the “Exit Application (configuration mode startup)” button.
Press “Yes” at the prompt to exit the application.
6.
Once the runtime application quits and the desktop is shown (black screen with the words “System
Startup Please Wait…”), cycle power to the MCT. Once the MCT finishes its boot sequence, the
Configurator application will be automatically started.
