General
The Custom Screen allows the ECC/WCC II system to capture a
Custom text or graphics screen and have actual dynamic values
from points within the ECC/WCC II system on these screens. Up
to 60 screens can be created, and up to 100 points (temperatures,
ON/OFF status etc.) can be placed on the screen.
This feature is available as part of the standard software package;
however, a hard disk is required for it to function. Custom screens
will work with either a monochrome or color screen (CGA, EGA
or PS2 VGA).
There are several screen editing software packages available. We
recommend using ANSI of LA (AoLA). AoLA allows you to
create both text and graphics for use as the static background of
the Custom Screen in the ECC/WCC II system. Graphics packages
such as PC Paintbrush, AutoCad, etc. cannot be used as a Custom
Screen.
After you have created a screen using AoLA, you must save the
screen from AoLA using the following procedure:
<Alt> <S> Save a Screen File
A message will then be displayed asking for the fi lename. The
fi lename must be given a “TXT” extension.
Filename: sample.txt <Enter>
A message will then be displayed asking for the fi le type. Press
<D>
to select the “Dump” fi le to disk.
File type: D <Enter>
This screen will be the static background for the Custom Screen.
This fi le needs to be copied to the same directory or sub-directory
as the ECC/WCC II software. The ECC/WCC II software is sent
from the factory on the root directory of the hard disk. If your
AoLA fi le was created on the root directory of the hard disk of
