TANKSCAN 2 USER INTERFACE MAP Button Behavior The front panel interface on the ATEK TankScan product consists of a 16x2 character LCD and six pushbuttons. The buttons are mapped as follows: The buttons are intended to behave in a consistent fashion throughout the user interface. The up/down buttons are used to select a particular item in a menu. When editing the value of a field, they are used to increase/decrease the value, or cycle through the available options. The left/right buttons are not used at the main level of the menu system, but are used in the tank status viewer to select a different probe. When editing certain types of fields, the buttons are used to move the cursor left/right. The menu button is used primarily to “go back” one level in the menu, or abort the current operation. The select/enter button is used to select an item to “drill down” in a menu, to select a field for editing, or when editing a field, to commit a change. In one instance, the front panel buttons are used as a password entry field, and the keys take on slightly different meanings. The values 1-5 and enter are shown in the button mapping above. Refer to the user interface map at the end of this document for a quick reference. ATEK Manufacturing, Brainerd, MN 56401-0408 USA Error! Reference source not found. Document Revision: 4.00 Page: 1 of 5 Menu Items 1. Status Display The status display cycles through several useful screens of information on a periodic basis. It is refreshed once per second, and cycles to a new screen every 5 seconds. All status screens display the current time on the top line. The first status screen displays the unit serial number on the second line. 1a. Next Report Time This screen shows the time at which the unit is scheduled to next report. 1b. Last Report Status This screen shows the status of the last report attempt (OK or FAIL), and the time at which it was attempted. 1c. Controller Temperature This screen shows the current temperature of the controller unit. 1d. Reporting Started This screen is shown when the scheduled report time has been reached, or an alarm or other condition has caused reporting. It indicates that the unit is currently attempting to contact the server. 1e. Reporting Active This indicates that an active and successful reporting session is ongoing. 2. System Configuration This option leads to a selection of menu items which will configure a few system-wide options. 2a. Password Entry A simple password field is required to change these settings. By default, the password is 5-4-3-2-1-enter. This is a hardcoded password in the unit firmware. 2b. Billing Day This setting changes the day of the month that is considered the billing day, used for scheduling reporting. 2c. Measure Units This setting configures whether the measurement units are metric or imperial. 2d. Radio Mode This changes the controller radio mode between “old” mode (compatible with old probes only) or “new” mode (compatible with new probes only). 3. IP Configuration This option leads to a selection of menu items which allow configuration of the Ethernet networking interface. These settings are only relevant when the Ethernet uplink mode is selected. 3a. DHCP This setting configures whether the unit will attempt to acquire its IP settings automatically using DHCP, or whether they will be configured statically. Note that a reboot of the controller is required when this change is made. 3b. Static IP Address When in static IP mode, this is where the unit’s IP address is set. 3c. Static Network Mask When in static IP mode, this is where the unit’s network mask is set. 3d. Static Gateway ATEK Manufacturing, Brainerd, MN 56401-0408 USA Error! Reference source not found. Document Revision: 4.00 Page: 2 of 5 When in static IP mode, this is where the unit’s default gateway is set. 3e. Static Primary DNS When in static IP mode, this is where the primary DNS server is set. 3f. Static Secondary DNS When in static IP mode, this is where the secondary DNS server is set. 4. Uplink Configuration This option leads to a selection of menu items which allow configuration of the uplink connection. 4a. Uplink Mode This setting allows choosing between the modem, USB and Ethernet modes of uplink connection. 4b. Minimum Time Between Calls This setting controls the minimum allowable time between calls. This allows throttling the time between calls so that it does not dial in too often. Units are in minutes. 4c. Maximum Time Between Calls This setting controls the maximum allowed time between calls. This ensures the unit reports at least as often as this setting. Units are in minutes. 4d. Repeat Alarm Call Time ?? 4e. Maximum Tries to Call This setting controls the maximum number of attempts that the controller will make at a given reporting time to try to contact the server. 4f. Begin Call Hour This setting controls the start of a window in which the controller is allowed to connect to a server for reporting. 4g. End Call Hour This setting controls the end of a window in which the controller is allowed to connect to a server for reporting. 4h. Power Alarm This setting controls whether the controller will report immediately after restoration of power after an outage. 4i. Dial Phone Number This setting is used to set the primary phone number that will be used for dialing. This is only relevant in “Telephone Line” uplink mode. 4j. Dial Prefix This setting is used to control the prefix needed for dialing out, often “9” or “9W”. This is only relevant in “Telephone Line” uplink mode. 4k. Dial Suffix This setting is used to control any necessary suffix for dialing out. This is only relevant in “Telephone Line” uplink mode. 4l. Dial Mode This setting is used to control whether the modem will dial using tone or pulse dialing when it dials. This is only relevant in “Telephone Line” uplink mode. 5.
