Toolbar
The Tool Bar provides an alternative way of activating some of the commonly
used items on the main menu. To find out what each item does hold the
mouse pointer over the button of interest until a hint appears.
Online / Offline
All changes to the ACL configuration are performed Offline, i.e. without the PC
communicating with the ACL. Once the configuration changes have been
made and saved to a file, they can be sent to the ACL which is an Online
process, i.e. the PC is communicating with the ACL.
Many other functions are also performed online, for example, Get Logged
Data, Zero Sensors, Monitor Active Channels.
Configuration
The configuration of the ACL determines exactly how it operates.
The strength of the ACL lies in its flexibility of configuration. All aspects of the
ACL can be configured including; which sensor is connected to which input,
the calibration of each sensor, what to display and where to display it, what to
log and how fast to log it, tacho range, warning alarms, multi stage shift lights,
etc.
