7.4 Running (2) PLMs at once

Some applications will use 2 dvc710s in the project. To monitor both controllers, the programmer may wish to
run 2 PLMs at the same time. Copy the following to another folder and create a short cut to that .EXE
PLM700 v5.21.exe
B167.bin
PLM700 v5.21.aliases
PLM700 v5.21.ini

7.5 Main Program Loader Monitor Screen

Normally the first screen you will see after executing the Program Loader
Monitor program is as shown here. This window shows all of the
modules in your applications project. Each device in the project has a
status button. Device buttons that are grayed out indicate that the
DVC710 controller is not communicating with that module. Generally this
is due to the devices having different CAN Bus baud rates, incorrect
MAC IDs or simply the CAN connection to the expansion module is
absent or faulty.

To monitor a particular component double click on its Status button. To
load the DVC710 monitor screen, double click on the grey DVC710
Master Button.

You may need to enter a password to gain access to certain features of
the Program Loader Monitor. The passwords are assigned using the
Programming Tool. There are four password levels:

Level 0

If the system is password protected and a valid password has not been entered level 0 is assigned.

This level allows you to see factory information about the system only.

Level 1 – Access to parameters and the ability to send changes.


Level 2 – Ability to download application programs. The password for level 2 is “HCT”.

Level 3 – Ability to change MAC ID, CAN Bus baud rate or download BIOS programs.

DVC710 Master Display
The Program Loader Monitor is used to observe
DVC710 actual input and output specific
information as your application executes. The
names assigned to them in the Programming Tool
appear on the main screen shown below. The
runtime graph is used to plot any two variables as
fast as the computer can collect data from the
DVC710. Dials will appear to display RPM when
pulse inputs are assigned.

The Program Loader Monitor determines the DVC
controller type when it is connected automatically
and the main screen will be modified to reflect the
