Simply click on the "name" field in the web-based configuration tool to rename the digital channels such that they match the feeder name (e.g UP, DOWN, BRANCH etc)

Acquiring and Transmitting Data

...

Use a simple absolute acquire on Change. Double-Click on each of the Bender ALARM1 and Bender ALARM2 channels in turn and enter the setting shown below:


CONFIG OF ALARM LEVELSImage Added



All Digital Channels

Simply select push-to-server for all physical and RS485 channels. This is achieved by ensuring the "Push to Server" tick-box is checked for digital channels you which to send to Centrix, as shown below

Live Insulation Resistance (4-20 mA or RS485)

...

1) Open the "Rail Events" Tab - This is where we can create all sorts of clever acquisition rules.


RAIL EVENT TABImage Added

2) Create a new "Rail Event" - This sets up a new set of acquisition rules. It is OK for your Rail Event to errors at this stage.

CREATE NEW RAIL EVENTImage Added

3) Create the "Start Trigger" - We want to acquire data when the SA380TX boots up, and then whenever there is a significant change in insulation resistance. Whenever there is a +/-5% change in insulation resistance, a new acquisition is started. It is OK for your Rail Event to errors at this stage.

SET START TRIGGERImage Added

4) Tell the SA380TX what to Acquire - We want to keep acquiring insulation resistance values so long as they continue change. Every time the insulation resistance changes by another 5% of its prior value, we grab another sample. It is OK for your Rail Event to errors at this stage.

SET ACQUISITIONImage Added

5) Set the end conditions - We don't need an "end trigger" we keep on acquiring samples so long as they continue to change. At some point though we want to barrel these samples up and send them to Centrix. This is why we put a time-out period of 1 minute in place.

...

Your Rail Event should now have no errors.

Always remember to set the config on the SA380TX before closing the web-page!
