Changing a Seal State for a module
W&M Logic
The following is a summary of the logic used when checking the Weights &
Measures seals. Sealed modules that are changed in any way in the system will
not appear with the W&M approval indicator.
The module seals are read when the particular module is started and loaded. So
any changes in W&M seal indication will only be effective when the module is
restarted / reloaded.
• FMCommManager. - will mark data as sealed if both the driver library and
FMCommManager.exe modules are sealed. Specifically for the 8130 RTU the
files cmdc8130.dll and the cmds8130.dll, in addition to the RTU point, must
also be sealed.
• FMDataManager - will mark data as sealed if the FMDataManager.exe
module is sealed and the process variable is sealed for the respective Tag. If
the process variable is calculated, then the VolumeCorrection.dll library
module must be sealed. If the process variable is an input from
FMCommManager then the data must also be sealed by the driver.
• FMArchiveManager - will mark data in the archive as sealed if the
FMSystem.dll library, the DCSComm.dll library and FMArchiveManager.exe
modules are sealed and the data is sealed by FMDataManager.
• FMOperate will display data as sealed on graphics, tank details and real-time
trends if the FMSystem.dll library, the DCSComm.dll library and OperNT.exe
modules are sealed and the data is sealed by FMDataManager.
• FMOperate will display data as sealed on historical trends if the FMSystem.dll
library and OperNT.exe modules are sealed and the data is sealed in the
archive.
• FMOperate will display data as sealed in historical reports and historical
trends if the FMSystem.dll library and OperNT.exe modules are sealed, the
data is sealed in the archive and the Archive.mdb file is still owned by the
SYSTEM. In addition, for the historical reports, the Crystal report must have
been designed to display W&M seals using custom functions supplied in the
U2FM.dll, which must also be sealed
