Printing
Printing overview
A printer can be connected to the Control Center’s Microboard to print the following reports. The
screen from which each report can be generated is listed in parenthesis.
• Status - Present system parameters (Printer, Home)
• Setpoints - Present programmed values of all setpoints (Printer, Setpoints)
• Schedule - Present value of programmed daily schedule (Printer, Schedule)
• Sales Order - Information about SALES ORDER Screen (Printer, Sales Order)
• History - System parameters at the time of the last normal stop, last fault while running and
last 10 faults, whether running or not (Printer, History)
• Cycling or Safety Shutdown Initiated Print - Snapshot of all system parameters at instant of
shutdown. Automatically occurs if printer is connected at time of shutdown.
• Adaptive Capacity Control (ACC) Surge Map - System conditions at instant all surge points
were mapped. (Compressor Motor Variable Speed Drive applications; requires SERVICE access
level) (Printer, ACC)
• Trend - Prints a snapshot of the existing TREND Screen data or prints new data collected after
the TREND PRINT key is pressed.
The printer can be permanently connected to the Control Center or connected as required to
produce a report. If permanently connected, a DATA LOGGING feature can produce a status report
automatically, beginning at an Operator selected start time and occurring at an Operator selected
interval thereafter.
The following figures are examples of the different print reports. Solid State Starter application

print parameters applicable to those devices.
• Status or History - Figure 80
• Setpoints - Figure 82
• Schedule - Figure 84
• Sales Order - Figure 85
• Security Log - Figure 86
• Trend - Figure 87

Acceptable printers
The following printers can be used. Printers must be equipped with an RS- 232 Serial interface.
• OKI Data OKIPOS 441
• Brecknell CP130
The Control Center provides the required formatting control codes for the printers above when the
printer is selected on the PRINTER Screen. These codes are transmitted through the serial interface
to the printer to provide a correct print format.
Different printers require different formatting control codes. Other printers might provide correct
operation when connected to the Control Center. However, the print format may not be correct or
as required.
Proceed with caution and use the following guidelines if an unlisted printer is selected:
1. All printers must be capable of RS-232 serial communications.
