b. Configuration Software
The configuration software controls the recording and
alarm functions of the DataCORDER. Reprogramming
to the factory installed configuration is achieved via the
same configuration card as the unit control module
software. Changes to the software may be made made
using the Data View integration device. A listing of the
configuration variables is provided in Table 3.
Descriptions of DataCORDER operation for each
variable setting are provided in the following
paragraphs.
3.6.3 Sensor Configuration (dCF02)
Two modes of operation may be configured, the
Standard Mode and the Generic Mode.
a. Standard Mode
In the standard mode, the user may configure the
DataCORDER to record data using one of seven
standard configurations. The seven standard
configuration variables, with their descriptions, are
listed in Table 4, page 25.
The six thermistor inputs (supply, return, USDA #1, #2,
#3 and cargo probe) and the humidity sensor input will
be generated by the DataCORDER. The three
Controlled Atmosphere inputs will be read over a
network from the controlled atmosphere control
module. The controlled atmosphere readings will be the
oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen levels. An example
of a report using a standard configuration is shown in
Figure 12, page 26.
NOTE
The supply and return sensors used by the Da-
taCORDER software are not the same sensors
used by the temperature control software.
