Overview
The Intelligent Paint Kitchen uses software that
allows the components to communicate with each
other. The software is also used to set up the system
and specify operating conditions.
The following Intelligent Paint Kitchen components
contain their own embedded software:
• The Touchscreen software manages the interface
between the user and the Intelligent Paint
Kitchen. The software allows users to view current
information on the Touchscreen Module (14),
and to enter information and commands into the
Touchscreen Module.
• The Supervisor software runs the Intelligent
Paint Kitchen. Use it to configure the station
components, to set up communication and
operating parameters between the Supervisor
Box (A) and the station components, to set up
event handling, and to operate each station in the
system.
• The Pump Control Module (PD) software provides
the interface between the Intelligent Paint Kitchen
software in the non-hazardous location and the
following components in the hazardous location
of the station:
– Pump Run/Stop Switch (U)
– Primary Tank Agitator (L)
– Primary Tank Radar Level Sensor (M)
– Back Pressure Regulator Controller (F)
– Pressure Transducers (K)
– Fill Pump Transfer Solenoid (P)
• The Tank Control Module (TD) software provides
the interface between the Intelligent Paint Kitchen
software in the non-hazardous location and the
following components in the hazardous location
of the station:
– Level Sensor for the Primary/Secondary Tank
Agitators (M, T)
– Pneumatic Fill Pump Transfer Solenoid (P)
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: When a station contains both a Pump
Control Module and a Tank Control Module, some
component connections move from the Pump
Control Module to the Tank Control Module.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: Although the Pump Control Module and
the Tank Control Module look identical, they each
have their own specific software installed. They
are not interchangeable components.

IDs
A node ID is automatically generated for each paint
kitchen component that communicates directly with
the Intelligent Paint Kitchen software.
When the stations have been configured
(
Configure Each Station, page 64
), each generated
node ID must be entered into the corresponding
paint kitchen component. Every Variable Frequency
Drive/Inverter, every Pump Control Module, and
every Tank Control Module must have its unique
node ID programmed into it, in order for those
devices to communicate with the rest of the system.
Each node ID generated by the Intelligent Paint
Kitchen software must match the node ID for a
specific component located in the station.
Matching component node IDs with the node IDs
entered into the software allows the Intelligent Paint
Kitchen software to communicate with and control
the system.
See
Appendix E: Node ID Assignments, page 158
for
a complete list of node ID assignments.
