96 Running PowerLine in Direct Control Mode
5.2.1 Setting the Run Time
Use the Direct Control screen (see Figure 5-2) to set the Run Time parameter.
Run Time
Specifies the duration of the analysis after the injection is made. The system does not
recognize another Inject signal while a run is in progress.
To set the run time:
1. Move the cursor to the Run Time field.
2. Type a run-time value between 0.0 and 655.34 minutes. Press Enter.
When the controller receives the Inject signal (see Section 5.2.4, Starting a Run), the
controller resets the run-time value to 0.00 and the clock starts counting up to the value
you entered.
5.2.2 Downloading Operating Parameters
When you enter parameter values on the Direct Control screen (see Figure 5-2), the
system immediately activates the parameters.
Before making an injection, however, the system must download other operating
parameters to the PowerLine modules (see Chapter 4, Setting PowerLine Controller
Operating Parameters). These are the parameters found on the Pump Setup, Autoinjector
Setup, and Detector Setup screens (see Figure 4-13, Figure 4-16, Figure 4-18, and
Figure 4-19).
Downloading PowerLine Parameters
To download the PowerLine operating parameters, press the Setup screen key.
The system status field in the lower left corner of the screen changes from
Idle to Setup
while the system sends the parameters to the PowerLine modules.
Stopping Downloading
To stop downloading the parameters, press the Abort screen key.
When downloading completes, the system status changes to
Initial and the Setup
screen key name changes to
Start Run.
