What is a Gilbarco PAM 5000?
The PAM 5000 is a system based on the Gilbarco PAM 1000 Controller. It will be able to
replace the old system with full compatibility. The PAM POS protocol is based on the
PAM 1000 software version 32.1.60 and PAM 1000 Interface specification.
The PAM 5000 will support the PAM protocol using different communication speeds
(300-19200 baud rate) and different protocol options (24 or 36 Pump support).
The physical serial interface to the POS is based on Hardware Interface Module (HIM)
DSB 500 supporting RS232/RS422 or CL 45mA passive, selectable at the wiring time.
By default the PAM 5000 basic system will handle up to 16 fueling positions. For sites
swapping out the PAM 1000 for the PAM 5000 and the D/Box is reused, the default can
be changed to12 fueling positions per PAM port. An extra CL hardware interface module
would be needed if the number of fueling points is higher than 12. For new sites the
default will be 16 fueling points per PAM port with the third board then supporting 4
fueling points if needed.
The physical connection is made with a Gilbarco HIM module DSB492 (maximum of
eight dispensers or 16 fueling positions per module). The system will come with the
necessary DSB500 and DSB492 modules per the sites configuration. If the site has more
than 16 fueling positions then another DSB492 module will be needed. The system would
just need a simple setup change to the PAM configuration and no software upgrade
would be necessary.
The PAM 5000 is replacing the PAM 1000 because parts for the PAM 1000 are going
end-of-life and will become obsolete by the summer of 2008.
