Information
This step establishes the Station Name, Address, Group, and other global
variables that differentiate a 3095FC. Other system variables set in the
information screen must be established for a particular application.
General Tab
See Figure 3-6 on page 3-11.
Use the following instructions to configure the Device Information General
tab.
1. Select Device > Information > General Tab.
2. Enter the Station Name to be logged with the historical database for
site identification.
3. Enter a unique Address to differentiate each device in a
communications group. The Address can be assigned a value from 1
to 255. The System Default Address of 240 should not be used.
4. Enter a Group to identify a set of 3095FC units for communication
purposes, typically to a host that polls the 3095FC. The station Group
can be assigned a value from 1 to 255. All of the 3095FCs addressed
as an area in the host have the same station Group.
5. Set the Contract Hour to indicate when the values are totaled for a
single day of production, accumulators are cleared, and data is
logged to the Daily History database. The Contract Hour is based on
a 24-hour clock with midnight as the “0” hour.
6. Select Force End of Day to reset the daily and hourly accumulators.
Click Apply to cause the daily and hourly values to be logged into
memory for all historical data totals.
7. Select either U.S. or Metric Units for calculations. All calculations will
be performed to reflect the selected preference.
8. Use Device > Flags > Flash Memory Save Configuration to save the
configuration to the Flash Memory in case a Cold Start must be
performed.
