Function of CI 3000
25
Version 2.09 09. April 2014
4.6 Configuration of the LDS system via the PC software LDSWin
The CI 3000 Store Computer and all LDS components connected to it via CAN bus can be configured conve
niently on a PC running the LDSWin software. This includes the option of reading out the configuration of all
components and storing this data on the PC (via function “Save Parameter sets”) “so that it can be written back
to the replacement device if replacement of a component becomes necessary. Further information is contained
in the LDSWin operating instruction.
For local configuration the CI 3000 Store Computer is connected to the PC by a null modem cable (EAG No.
PCZKABSER2).
In addition, for the purpose of remote adjustment and maintenance, the store computer can also be operated
using the PC via a modem or via a network using the Combi-Gateway. The store computer can be used for the
storage of store-specific data from LDSWin so that the same store layout can be used for different LDSWin in
stallations.
4.7 Automatic fault report transmission via modem
The CI 3000 Store computer allows of automatically transmitting alarms (in real language) from the LDS System
to various destinations via modem. The following information is transmitted in the message: store name, mes
sage text, time and date of the time stamp in, i.e. time stamp go, priority, telephone number of the store, item
number (CAN Bus address) as well as the name of the LDS component).
In addition to a PC with the software LDSWin the sending of alarms as SMS to mobile telephones is also sup
ported (see chapter 6.3) along with the playing of voice messages over the telephone and the sending of FAXs
(only possible with an ISDN modem, see chapter 5.3.2).
Danger of the failure of alarm messaging via SMS and thus no alarm signalling in the event of
problems! There is no assurance that text messages will reach the recipient reliably or in due time.
Do not configure SMS as the only alarm path! It is also possible that a network operator or mobile
phone provider changes its dial-up number or its dial-up procedure from time to time, thus generat
ing additional costs. Precise information can be obtained from the respective mobile phone service
provider.
Up to 14 different PCs can be configured as fault signal receivers in the CI 3000 Store Computer. The LDSWin
software must be installed and running on PCs used for remote alarming.
The reporting route must be checked regularly by the store computer check function contained in the
LDSWin software for the purpose of monitoring reliability of automatic fault report transmission.
4.8 Display of Temperature Archives (HACCP) on Store Computer
Via the menu item 6-3 in the CI 3000 store computer, it is possible to access temperature archives
(e.g. for HACCP) from controllers and radio sensors integrated into the LDS system.
By this means it is possible to view these temperature archives for up to 31 days in the past, without the need
for the PC software LDSWin.
For retrieving data from temperature archives which extend further into the past,
the PC software LDSWin is required.
