“on-line” the word ‘connected’ will appear in the bottom left of the Setup
Window.
When on-line, effective values are immediately
applied to the DSC, but can be lost by turning off
power – until DSC SAVE is selected.
OPEN under the FILE menu bar shows you the
contents of an existing Setup in “off-line” mode.
SAVE or SAVE AS under the FILE menu bar
stores an on-line or off-line Setup into a file with a
.dsc extention.
DSC SAVE is only available in on-line mode, to make changes to the
Setup of a DSC permanent.
The contents of one Setup can be copied into another Setup by dragging
and dropping the DSC Folder icon or individual Property Sheet icon of the
source Setup into the appropriate icon of the destination Setup.
A DSC can also be loaded with a previously created configuration:
1. Open a previously created off-line Setup using OPEN.
2. Open an on-line DSC Setup using OPEN DSC.
3. Drag and drop the off-line Setup onto the on-line Setup.
4. Use DSC SAVE to write the new Setup to the DSC memory.
4.1.1 Setup Software Configuration
Configuration usually takes place off-line (but can also be done on-line).
Off-line configuration, as described below, collects most of the installation
data without being attached to an operational DSC. The information is
eventually transferred to a DSC by an on-line step. Off-line configuration
is appropriate when operational data is available before the DSC is
hooked up and running. This technique can also be used to modify the
parameters of an existing controller.
When you start DSCsetup a new, blank Setup
window appears. The setup Property Sheets
that will require information during the
configuration process are Valve Settings,
Rudder Feedback Configuration, System
Configuration, Rudder Time Settings, Autopilot
Configuration and SCP Configuration.
