Direct Configuration
NOTE
A direct configuration cable DPC (P/N 5417-557), the LeoPC1 program (supplied with the cable), and the
corresponding configuration files are required to perform direct configuration. After the program has
been installed, consult the online help for a description of the PC program and its setup.
Configuration files may be downloaded from the Woodward homepage at:
http://www.woodw
ard.com/software/ConfigFiles/
The unit part number and revision number will be required to locate the appropriate configuration files.
Remote configuration: For remote configuration, the level CS2 password of must be entered via the parameter
"Enter code", otherwise, the values can only be read but not written. Configuring via the communication bus has
no effect on the unit display screen. This means that the control unit remains in code level 0and configuration is
only permitted via the communication bus. The control may remain idle for 2 hours before configuration via the
communication bus is disabled. The password must be re-entered to re-enable configuration via the communica-
tion bus again. The password must also be entered prior to loading a language file. If the code for level 2 is en-
tered on the unit itself, configuration via the communication bus is automatically enabled.
WARNING
If Parameter 3 "Direct para." is configured to "YES", communication via the interface terminals X1 to X5
is disabled. If the interface communication is to be re-established after the unit is configured, Para-
me
ter 3 must be configured to "NO"!
The GCP-30 will automatically disable the direct configuration port (Parameter 3 is automatically
sw
itched from YES to NO) when the unit detects that firing speed has been achieved (Parameter 272).
A
dditional configuration may be performed while the generator is running through the display panel or
via a CAN bus converter (i.e. IXXAT USB to CAN 1 converter). The direct configuration port is disabled
and the communication interface is re-enabled upon detection firing speed as a safety precaution. This
is done to prevent a simultaneous closing of GCBs to the de-energized bus bar in the event conditions
for a multiple unit start-up (i.e. emergency power situation) are detected.
Parameter 3
Direct para.
YES
Direct configuration YES/NO
YES .............. The direct configuration port is enabled, and CAN bus communica-
tions via X1 to X5 terminals are disabled. The following conditions
must be met in order to carry out configuration via the configuration
port:
- A connection must be established via the direct configuration cable
between the control and the PC
- The baud rate of the LeoPC1 program must be set to 9,600 Baud
- The corresponding configuration file for the controller must be
used (file name: "xxxx-xxxx-yyy-zz.asm").
NO ................ The direct configuration port is disabled and CAN bus communica-
tions via X1 to X5 terminals are enabled.
