10.1 Connection methods
Single M750 RS-422 to USB adapter, controllers connected with UTP network. This
connection can be realised with less hardware, but has the disadvantage that overall data transfer
rate of each controller is limited by the fact that the PC will collect data from each controller in turn.
Multiple M750 RS-422 to USB adapters each connected to an individual controller (or
controller + I/O extension board combination). This connection method obviously requires more
hardware but will offer continuous data exchange between each controller and the PC.
Combinations of these methods are also possible. For example different groups of dryers can
be interconnected with UTP network, with each group having a dedicated RS-422 to USB adapter
for connection to the PC.
11 Software
There are two additional software packages available for use with the DQ 01 dryer
controller. The Dashboard (MIS) software allows recipes, settings and operational data to be
transferred between a controller and a PC. The Translator software enables creation and editing of
user-interface languages. It is supplied free of charge upon request.
