Using The PowerLine application


File ( Memory Options ):


Selection from Menu ->

Save Temporary Memory to Permanent Memory


NOTE:

It is strongly reccomended that the user cycles power to the PowerLine module after saving any

program changes to ensure that the setting alterations take place and any old setting data is erased by
the controller.

The unit stores all user programmable
settings both in temporary and permanent
memory. The unit reads the values from
permanent memory in the PowerLine “EE-
prom” into temporary memory only at
power up or when the “Restore Temporary
Memory from Permanent Memory” menu
item is selected. The temporary memory
values, “settings”, are used in operation.
The PowerLine control program allows
altering the values in temporary memory,
which immediately (and temporarily)
affects the unit’s operation. The control
program also allows saving the parameters
in temporary memory into the unit’s
permanent memory by selecting “Save
Temporary to Permanent Memory”.

Changes that are not saved will be lost
when power is turned off or if the Restore Temporary Memory from Permanent Memory is selected.

Caution:

The unit does not function while settings are being saved. Use of this selection

temporarily prevents the unit from working in the system. Do not select this option while the machine
is operating.

Selection from Menu ->

Save Temporary Memory to Permanent Memory & File

The control program can save and restore all unit settings to or from a file. The temporary and permanent
memory values in the unit are made to be identical during operations to avoid confusion about what was saved
or restored. When the Save Temporary Memory to Permanent Memory & a File is selected, the temporary
settings are saved to permanent memory. Next, the user is prompted for a file name and location to save the
new settings to. This file can be used to program other units identically or act as a backup while adjusting the
unit. This feature also allows a replacement unit to be set up identically to the original without having to
manually determine the required values for a particular installation.

Caution:

Use of this selection temporarily prevents the unit from working in the system.

Do not select this option while the machine is operating.
