General Information & Warranty |
GENERAL INFORMATION & WARRANTY
General Information
The PIcon II is an economical, full-featured console designed to provide control of up to 16 fueling positions. While most consoles can only control one type of fuel dispenser, the PIcon II may be configured to run any major brand electronic or mechanical dispenser. This is accomplished through the use of brand-specific Progressive International PI DBoxes that contain the unique circuitry required to interface to each individual dispenser brand. An alternative to this solution is the use of configurator boxes, supplied by PIE, along with the dispenser manufacturer’s DBox.
PIcon II provides full features, yet is very simple to install and operate. Due to meticulous design of the keyboard and display layout, keystrokes are kept to a minimum during programming setup and normal operation modes.
Standard features provided by the PIcon II for efficient control of fueling dispensers include:
CFull featured console which includes prepay/postpay, preset, drive-away alerts, stacked sale, cash/credit operation.
CManagement features including dispenser, shift and station totals, management security, prices programmed by product.
CEasy to read LCD display.
CControls up to 16 fueling positions — including all major electronic and mechanical dispensers and blending dispensers.
CAudible alerts for call, drive-away and collect, with lowand high-volume settings.
CMemory backup to retain data in the event of power outage.

INSTALLATION
General Installation Guidelines
The basic PIcon II system consists of several components — the PIcon II console, interconnect box, PI DBox and parallel printer cable. Refer to Diagram: PIcon II Port and Keyboard Layout, which shows the various connections of the PIcon II system, including the port for optional printer. If further assistance is required, please contact your PIcon II dealer.
To install the PIcon II:
1.Place the console at the checkout counter of the station.
2.If using the PI DBox, refer to the PI DBox Installation Guide for detailed installation instructions. Attach the PIcon II system to the dispenser data distribution equipment for the appropriate dispenser type.
3.If a printer is to be used with the PIcon II, attach the printer cable to the connector on the back of the parallel printer and the other end to the printer port on back of the PIcon II.
4.If using the PI Configurator and the dispenser manufacturer’s DBox, refer to the PI Configurator Installation Guide and the dispenser manufacturer’s DBox installation guide for detailed instructions. Mount under the counter or on a wall adjacent to the console, not more than five feet away. Using the PIcon II cable, connect the configurator to the PIcon II’s PI port.
5.Upon completion, apply power to all the components of the PIcon II system and perform Quick Startup as described on the following page. Then commence programming, as outlined in Programming Section of this manual. Note: An uninterruptable power supply is recommended for clean power.

Quick Startup
This quick startup procedure lists the order and minimal programming steps for operation of the PIcon II. For more detailed explanations or for programming of optional modes, refer to the Programming Section of this manual.
1.Program Mode PGM 1 — Pump Type
Note: Pump Type must be selected before other programming can be completed.
2.Program Mode PGM 2 — Dispenser Setup Information
3.Program Mode PGM 3 — Product Information
Prior to performing Quick Startup, press <SELECT> twice and check to ensure that the date is correct. If incorrect, change date as explained in Manager Mode Section, MGR 5 — Set Date and Time. If date is correct, calculate restricted code by multiplying the current month, times the day, plus the year. For example, if the date were December 10, 2000, the restricted code would be calculated as follows:
12 X 10 + 2000 = 2120 Restricted access code would be 2120.
