Grain Systems PNEG-1851 - Manual (Page 29)

Chapter 3: Getting Started
4. From the submenu pane, click Time and Date.
5. Set the following parameters:
Time — The current time (hour; minute; a.m./p.m.).
Date — The current date (month; day; year).
IMPORTANT: Setting the correct time and date is important because the system’s clock is used by
other processes, such as your dryer’s shutdown history. As a result, incorrect time
and date settings lead to inaccurate system logs. Be sure to check the time and date
at the beginning of each drying season or when restarting the dryer after a long period
of inactivity.
6. Click Save.
7. Click Units of Measure.
8. Set the following parameter:
System Selection — The system of measurement used for all onscreen temperature, speed, and
grain measure values. The available systems of measurement are the American (or United States
customary system) and the International System (SI).
9. Click Save and close the active window.
After You Finish
Once the system settings are set, configure your dryer’s hardware setup so that the controller can properly
validate your dryer’s configuration.
Configuring Your Dryer’s Hardware
The hardware setup is a series of tangible settings that ensure your dryer’s onscreen representation accu-
rately reflects the actual product. You can configure the hardware before the initial loading cycle, thus
avoiding potential startup faults.
Before You Begin
• Make sure that you are on-site. You cannot configure your dryer's hardware when you are operating
your dryer via GSI’s remote web application.
• Make sure that the dryer is stopped.
To configure your dryer’s hardware:
1. From the taskbar, click System→Hardware Setup.
2. Set the following parameters:
Dryer Type — The type of grain dryer that you are using (portable; tower; top).
IMPORTANT: Make sure to enter the dryer type that corresponds to your actual dryer. If you enter a
dryer type that is incorrect, a shutdown message will be displayed onscreen and you
will not be able to start the dryer.
Number of Modules — The number of modules corresponding to your portable dryer’s configuration
(1: single module; 2: two modules; 3: three modules).
