You must first establish contact with the module before you can
configure it. Use the program test.commander for this purpose if
a Q.gate- or a Q.pac Test Controller is present. Otherwise, use
the program ICP 100 for the configuration.
A license number is needed which you have to enter
to be able to
save configurations. During the installation of test.commander,
the software ICP 100 is also installed and, with the licensing of
test.commander, is also
enabled. You will find the license num-
bers in the PDF file enclosed with the supplied items
and on the
separate printout with your license data.
The manuals and online help for the programs provide a compre-
hensive description of all program o
ptions. The following
describes the most important settings to obtain a system suitable
for acquiring measurements.
Use the test.commander Wizard for the initial setup.
If you already have a configuration file with the required settings
available, you can load this file into the relevant module with the
Program Controller Setup Wizard (included in test.commander)
or ICP 100.
If you would like to combine modules or Test Controllers from
older applications and recently purchased ones, all components
should use the latest relevant internal software, the so-called
firmware. To ensure this, carry out a firmware update; refer to
Section 5.10, page 132.
Basic procedure
• Establish the connection (communication) between the PC
and module or Test Controller.
• Start the configuration program.
• Enter the sensors used and their sens
itivities to obtain an
indication in the measured physical quantity.
• Define computations, digital inputs/outputs, alarm monitor-
ing, etc.
• Activate all settings in the module and Test Controller.
