DVRPORTAL™
GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE (GUI)
The DVRPortal
™
software offers a means of programming the regulator and
monitoring generator performance. This Windows
®
application software is
available as a free download from the website https://www.marathongen-
erators.com/generators/dvrDownload.jsp. With this software, the user will
be able to change all of the programmable parameters.
DVRPortal™ software consists of a header, and four panels (Metering,
Configuration, Identification and Event Log). The header displays regula-
tor status and basic administration functions. The Metering tab displays
metered quantities and fault information. The Configuration tab permits
editing of all programmable parameters. The Identification tab contains
information specific to the regulator and allows for custom identification
tags. The Event Log tab allows user to access the Event Log information
saved in the regulator memory.
PARAMETER EDIT BUTTONS
On some of the parameter selection screens, you will find the following
buttons:
Apply – Pressing this button sends the values in the currently active tab of

be sent to the regulator RAM by clicking on the Apply button.
Refresh – Pressing this button loads the values that are presently in the
regulator RAM into the currently active tab of the DVRPortal software.
