Using Parameter Sets - HBM ClipX Bedienungsanleitung

7.5

Using parameter sets

You can store up to 10 parameter sets in the ClipX. A parameter set contains almost all
the settings of the various menus for Amplifiers (sensors), Calculated Channels, Peak
Values and Limit Switches etc. It does not include the network settings, TEDS usage, the
passwords, the visualization, fieldbus and ClipX bus settings and settings for synchro-
nization of the CF amplifiers.
You can also transfer the parameter sets together with the other device settings to your
PC. Give the parameter sets names so that you can distinguish them more easily. You
can use up to 30 characters per name.
The active parameter set is indicated by
BOOT
.
on the second line in the browser window indicates that the original set-
tings of the current parameter set are no longer being used. Save the settings
to a parameter set so as not to lose them.
You can save, load and activate parameter sets via the web browser or the fieldbus
interface, or activate them only via the digital inputs.
Processing parameter sets
On a new ClipX all the parameter sets contain the factory setting. You can reset a (sin-
gle) parameter set to those defaults at any time by clicking on
the browser while a parameter set is active.
When the ClipX powers up, all the parameter sets are translated into the relevant binary
instructions and stored in the RAM in order to enable quick parameter set changing.
Then the start parameter set is activated.
Each parameter set is assigned a check digit (CRC, cyclic redundancy check) in the RAM
in order to avoid errors.
It takes just a few milliseconds (<100 ms) to change the active parameter set. However,
in the event of a parameter set switch which changes sensor settings, filters or the ana-
log output, the measurement status is set to
as to suppress transient responses on the outputs. Brief timeouts may also occur on
the ClipX bus (SYS LED turns yellow).
