The menu Communication & Interfaces is called up as follows:
Menu hotkey
Communication & Interfaces
The menu contains multiple sub-menus with the following
configuration options:
Menu Communication & interfaces
Network (IP) configuration
In this sub-menu, the network settings (IP settings, IP = Internet protocol) are
made for remote access from the local network.
See section Remote access from the local network.
This sub-menu configures the options for sending e-mails via PoolManager
®
.
See section E-mail functions.
This sub-menu provides import and export functions for various data:
Measurement graph (export)
Eventlog (export)
Individual background images (import)
See section Data import & export
This sub-menu configures the CAN bus for the connection of future add-on
boxes (feature boxes). Please refer to the separate documentation for the
corresponding feature box for more information.
4-20 mA current loop outputs
This sub-menu configures the PoolManager
®
optional 4-20 mA current loop
outputs. These outputs are available as an optional add-on module (internal
plug-in module with 4 outputs 4-20 mA):
PM5-SA4 CONVERTER 4-20MA (Art. no. 127011)
The current loop outputs can be used for the following functions:
Transmitting measured values (pH, mV, Cl / Br, temp.) as 4-20 mA current
loop signal (for data recorders, remote displays, building management
systems)
Controlling external systems
(e.g. variable filter pumps, salt electrolysis systems)
For more details, please refer to the separate documentation for the
PM5-SA4 CONVERTER 4-20MA (Art. no. 127011).
23.1 Data import and export
The menu Data import and export provides functions for importing and
exporting various data:
Export measurement graph
Download measurement graphs from the PoolManager
®
(in remote access from a PC)
Store measurement graphs to USB stick
Automatic e-mail transmission of measurement graph (every
1...7 days to up to 3 e-mail recipients)
In order to use the export functions for the measurement
graph, Automatic storage of measurement graphs has to be
activated in advance. This automatically saves daily
measurement graphs in PoolManager
®
for later export.
Export eventlog
Download eventlog from the PoolManager
®
(in remote access from a PC)
Store eventlog to USB stick
Load individual background images
Load background image to the PoolManager
®
(in remote access from a PC)
Load background image from USB stick
USB memory stick data import & export
Save measurement graphs to USB stick
Save eventlog to USB stick
Load background image from USB stick
Measurement graph export
To export measurement graphs, a start date and an
end date have to be selected first. This will then export
the measurement graphs available for the time frame
indicated.
Requirements for individual background images
Image size 800x480 pixels
JPEG format
Max. 300 kB
Load individual background images from USB stick
The images on the USB stick have to be in a sub-
directory \pm5_image and meet the requirements listed
above.
Save measurement graph to USB stick
Measurement graphs are stored to a USB stick in the
directory \pm5_graph
Save eventlog to USB stick
Eventlogs are stored to a USB stick in the directory
\pm5_log
Inserting and removing a USB memory stick
