Engine Overspeed Test
In this mode, the engine can be tested for overspeed by lowering the overspeed setpoint to 90% of the nominal (max) speed.
Activate
Make sure the engine is not
running. The Overspeed Test mode cannot be entered on a running engine.
Note that the overspeed
setpoint has been lowered by observing the red are on the RPM meter.
Start the engine and adjust rpm
until it crosses the red labeled setpoint.
Observe engine shutdown.
Note! If the Overspeed Shutdown has been disabled in the configuration, then this test will NOT generate a shutdown.
Deactivate
The Overspeed Test times out after 5 minutes, or when an actual overspeed situation is observed.
The test can also be turned off by selecting the menu item again.
Connect a PC
To connect to the DCU, an Ethernet cable and a PC or laptop is necessary.
Connect the cable
Connect a standard CAT5 ethernet cable between the laptop Ethernet port and the DCU Ethernet port (COM 6).
Matching IP-address range
To connect a PC to the DCU, the IP­address (IP number) of the PC or
laptop must be in the same ‘range’ as
the IP-address of the DCU.
Often, the IP-address in a laptop is not available to change by the user due to company policy.
Whenever the laptop is connected in a network, it is given a new IP-address.
Normally, the laptop is given a new IP­address whenever it connects to the network at work. This scheme is called dynamic IP-address.
This given IP-address may not match that of the DCU though.
For this purpose, the DCU has an inbuilt server component, which resembles that of the company network, and gives the laptop an IP­address that matches the DCU.
On the top of this form is the DCU’s
current IP-address. The next lines display a start- and end IP-address.
This is the range the DCU’s DHCP
server will scan.
Page 16
User’s Manual – 400E Series
Page 13
Make sure the DCU IP-address is
outside
the DHCP Start- and End IP­address range, by setting the start IP higher or the end IP lower than the DCU IP-address.
For the example in the figure above, a Start IP of 192.168.0.110 is OK, whilst a Start IP of 192.168.0.105 is not.
When the range is fine, then press the OK button. The DCU’s server will now give a new IP-address to any laptop connected to the DCU within the next 10 minutes (timeout period).
The laptop keeps the new IP-address even after the 10 minute timeout, which is fine.
Connect to the PC
When the above exercise is done, connect to the DCU by typing the DCU IP-address into the browser’s URL field.
The above picture is representative for a typical successful login.
Administration
This menu gives access to the next level of menus, and is not discussed in this manual.
A four digit pin-code is needed to access the menu.
Interface Design
Up to four extra instrument screens can be added by the user.
Note! The webserver can also be used to add new user screens.
The screen layout
Each screen is built up as follows.
Each screen has a
template
. There are multiple templates to choose from, and each screen can have a different template.
A template is divided into
rectangles called
slots
. A slot is simply a placeholder for a widget.
A
Widget
can be a circular dial, a horizontal bargraph, a numerical value, etc. To be used, the widget must fit into the slot.
Page 17
User’s Manual – 400E Series
Page 14
