Name
This is the Entry’s Name. It must be unique. If it is not, it will show a prompt saying that the name
must be changed before it is able to save the entry. If the name is blank or is still ‘Default’, it will
say that it must be changed to a legal name.
Number
This field contains the phone number that will be called when MicroWIN 2000 connects remotely
to this entry’s dialer. If the dialer is currently being used locally, don’t worry about this until the
remote location phone number is known.
Automatic Callouts
MicroWIN 2000 can be setup to automatically call up its setup entries and receive data from them.
There are two types of automatic call-outs: Automatic Snapshots and Automatic Archives.
When at least one of these is enabled, you will see this displayed:
When both are disabled, you will see this displayed:
Do Initial Poll Callout
When MicroWIN 2000 is put into Automatic Polling Mode, all entries enabled to make automatic
call-outs will start a countdown timer to call after this time interval has expired. If this Do Initial
Poll Callout switch is marked, this entry will also be scheduled to call-out to retrieve data now
while also counting down for the next time to callout.
Automatic Snapshots
This switch allows the user to enable or disable the Automatic Snapshots for an entry. When
MicroWIN 2000 is in Automatic Polling Mode, all entries that are enabled for Automatic
Snapshots will be called every specified time interval (Default: Every 60 Minutes). When an
Automatic Snapshot is ready to be made, MicroWIN 2000 connects to this entry’s dialer if not
already connected. It then records a status snapshot (See section Snapshot Menu, Page 60). After
it is finished, if no other transfer actions are currently set (See section Transferring Information
With a Dialer, Page 57), MicroWIN 2000 will then disconnect from the dialer.
Automatic Archives
This switch allows the user to enable or disable the Automatic Archives for an entry. When
MicroWIN 2000 is in Automatic Polling Mode, all entries that are enabled for Automatic Archives
will be called every specified time interval (Default: Every 60 Minutes). When an Automatic
Archive is ready to be made, MicroWIN 2000 connects to this entry’s dialer if not already
connected. It then records all the archive data from the dialer that hasn’t been received yet (See
section Archive Records Menu, Page 65). After it is finished, if no other transfer actions are
