Check cable connections and verify that the MicroView is in the Program Mode. Enter or select the file name that you want to download. Press [Return] to load the application file. The download begins and the following screen shows the progress of the download operation.
When the download is complete, you are returned to the Opening Menu. Press [Esc] to exit the software. Press [Y] to return to DOS. The application is now loaded into the MicroView. You can test the application using the simulate function described in Chapter 3 or you can run the application as described in Chapter 5.
You will not see this prompt if a monitor was specified during installation. You will not see this prompt if a product type was specified during installation. The Opening Menu appears. When communication is established, the upload begins and the following screen shows the progress of the upload operation.
When the upload is completed, you are asked to enter the name that the file should be saved as. Enter up to an eight character file name and press [Return]. Note: Do not use a file extension. The program returns to the Opening Menu.
The application is now loaded into the DPS software. To edit the application file refer to Publication No. Refer to Publication No. This chapter only provides basic guidelines. Before running an application, you should understand what processes are being controlled and monitored. The application designer must document these functions. Make sure you understand any function key operations prior to operating the MicroView. Failure to do so may result in unintended operation.
The application designer can assign the function keys [F1] and [F2] to set or clear a bit at a controller address. This bit may control a variety of processes. It is the responsibility of the application designer to document the use of the bit write mode function keys. The MicroView can display five types of screens. Main Menu and Sub-Menu screens list screens that can be accessed by pressing the assigned numeric key [1] through [8]. A typical Main Menu screen provides links to individual screens or sub-menus: 1 Pump 3 Mixer 2 Tank 4 Recipe In the example above, pressing [2] at the Main Menu displays the status of a holding tank.
Pressing [4] displays a Sub-Menu of the recipe screen options. Advisor Option Applications can allow screen changes that are controlled by a logic controller. When the logic controller writes a valid screen number to a specified Advisor register, the corresponding screen is displayed.
The controller can initiate a screen change based upon a variety of inputs to the controller. For example, a pressure limit switch can be used to initiate the display of a pressure control screen. It is the responsibility of the application designer to document when and what screen changes may occur. Pressing an assigned function key displays the function key number for approximately 0.
It is the responsibility of the application designer to document the operations assigned to function keys. For example, assume that an application is displaying screen 6 and an auto return function key [F1] is linked to a recipe screen When [F1] is pressed, the recipe screen 10 is displayed. After the operator downloads a new recipe on screen 10, the initial screen 6 is displayed. The following table describes when the return to the initial screen occurs.
Continue Continue function keys do not return to the initial display but remain at the linked screen. When [F2] is pressed, the data entry screen 5 is displayed. The application continues from screen 5. Main Menu Every application has a Main Menu screen. The Main Menu is the first application screen displayed after an initial power-up or reset. Pressing this key at any time displays the Main Menu. The only difference is that you must navigate through the other screens or use assigned function keys to access the Sub-Menus.
Security Screens Security screens limit access to parts of an application. Each security screen can have up to 3 code entries. Entering any one of the codes provides access.
To enter a security code, use the numeric keypad. Press [ entered. If a valid security code has been entered, the next linked screen is displayed. If an invalid security code has been entered, an error message appears. Once you acknowledge the error condition by pressing [ ], you can re-enter the code.
Data Entry Screens Data entry screens contain an entry field. The length and format of the data entry field depends upon the application designer.
The application designer cannot place text after a data entry field. To enter data, use the numeric keypad. To modify an entry, press the clear entry key [CE] and re-enter the value. Press [ Data entry screens can have a default value appear in the data entry field. A flashing cursor identifies the first digit of the default value. Pressing [ writes the default to the controller or you can enter a different value by pressing the [CE] key.
Recipe screens can also be linked so that more than one recipe is downloaded. Download Recipe? You cannot modify the recipe data that is sent, recipe data is specified by the application designer.
In addition, grounding is an important safety measure in electrical installations. Refer to the inside front cover of this manual for additional guidelines. If you are using a DC power supply, check the environmental ratings of the supply. The DC power supply must be capable of providing at least 1. The following MicroView accessories meet these requirements.
Use either depending upon your source voltage. Route incoming power to the terminal by a separate path from the communications cables. To avoid problems caused by EMI, all cables must be shielded and grounded at one end.
Grounding is also an important safety measure in electrical installations. Use the proper cabling to connect the MicroView communications port to the port of the controller. The maximum recommended cable length is 50 feet Make sure that the communication parameters of the MicroView terminal match the MicroLogix. Applications are downloaded with the MicroLogix DF1 operating system. You cannot download an application that has a different operating system than the current operating system in the MicroView.
The baud rate is the only parameter that can be set for both the MicroView and MicroLogix controller. Find the error message in the error message listing and perform the recommended corrective action. If you encounter a problem that is not listed in the table, contact your local Allen-Bradley distributor for assistance. Failure to take adequate precautions may result in severe electrical shock or equipment damage. Other than verifying that the correct power source is connected to the terminal use a voltmeter , no electronic diagnostic equipment is required for troubleshooting.
If not, check the DC power from the MicroLogix controller through the communications cable. The most common problems are related to cabling configurations and the communication parameters baud rate, data bits, parity.
These parameters must be identical for both the MicroView and the controller. Cabling and the communications parameters are always the first things to check. If the communications cabling and communications parameters are correct, perform the diagnostic tests to rule out any non-functioning features of the MicroView.
Error Messages Refer to the following when the MicroView displays an error message. Core ROM boot code checksum test failure at power-up or reset. Possible defective ROM. Reset the MicroView and re-check. If the problem still exists, return the MicroView for repair. Operating system checksum is incorrect. Possible bad operating system. Reset the MicroView and recheck. If problem still exists, redownload operating system through the programming software.
If the problem is not corrected, return the MicroView for repair. Application file checksum is incorrect. If problem still exists, reload the application file and recheck.
If problem is not corrected, return MicroView for repair.. The security code entered did not match any of the 3 stored security codes in the application program. To check for input error — try again. If security codes have been forgotten, view the application file using MicroView programming software on a PC. Entered master code and stored master code did not match.
A master code number of may not be programmed. Download a new, valid master code number using MicroView Programming Software. The data entered is not within the programmed limits.
