4.5.2 Programming in MSView

Beyond the preset DIP switch options, the

ProStar’s charging profile and all other settings are

customizable using MSView PC software available at:
http://www.morningstarcorp.com/msview
With a connection to a PC, and to the RJ-11 port

of the ProStar, the MSView ProStar Set-up Wizard

is capable of editing all charging and lighting

parameters, for upload to the controller. The Set-up

Wizard, and topics within the Help tab describe

programming procedures in detail.
All aspects of connection and programming are

covered in the Product Connectivity Manual:

Navigating the Meter Map

The ProStar’s meter map consists of two main axes:

The horizontal top level daily monitoring screens,

and the vertical Main Menu stacked screens. The

four lighted triangular directional control keys

allow movement to reach any desired point on the

meter map. A lit key indicates a valid direction in

the map. The current location is indicated on the
