Register Details for Commonly
Used APEX Functions
The section gives you step-by-step instructions about how to use the Modbus registers
to change products, get summary statistics (such as total reject count), and back up all
your important APEX settings.
Changing Products
In order to change products remotely, all you need to do is enter the product number
(using a program such as such as Modscan, PC Master, or other similar program) into
Modbus register number 41045 and set parameter-change coil number 16385 to one
(1). When you enter the product number in this register, all APEX settings for this
product are automatically updated, and the APEX is now ready to start analyzing the
new product you specified.
Example
Imagine you are a supervisor at a food-packaging company. During the morning shift,
your equipment packages milk (product “001”), and during the afternoon shift it
packages ice cream (product “002”). In this example, the number “001” was
automatically assigned by the APEX software to milk, because this was the first product
you set up. Similarly, the number “002” was automatically assigned to ice cream,
because it was the second product you set up.
To view the list of currently set-up products (and to access their product numbers), do
the following.
1) Go to the APEX Main Menu to display the currently running product (in our example
this is product 001, milk).
