The converter lets the ECUs (RS-485) communicate with the computer (RS-232). Use a PC converter for a local network or a modem converter for a remote network.Local (hardwired) NetworkA remote network requires an open phone line only when data isexchanged. This exchange occurs when setup data is sent to theECU and when reports are generated. The rest of the time, theECUs manage barside operations on their own.

Choose from 1 day, 1 week, 1, 3, 6 or12 months, forever or no time at all. If you plan to print salesreports at certain intervals, save the records at least that long.The software will safely delete the records at the specified lengthof time. Longer storage lengths require more hard disk space.Quantity of Stored DataChoose to store detailed or summary sales data in archiverecords at the computer. This choice determines if you can rundetailed reports (X3) on archive sales data. Storing detailed datarequires more hard disk space. (You can always run detailedreports on current sales data at the ECUs regardless of yourchoice here.)Hourly Sales Report DataThe ECUs store hourly sales data for the preceding 48 hours ofsales activity. The hourly sales data is separate from the otherdata stored at the ECU for each drink. You can choose the typeof hourly sales data for the ECU to store.

1-14 Infinity Installation/Service and User ManualGather Equipment Setup InformationThe networks and ECUs installed during hardware installation must be defined in Infinitysoftware. Equipment setup information is entered in the Manager program. Record the preferredoptions on the Getting Ready for Infinity Worksheet.Network Name A unique name must be entered at the computer for eachnetwork in the system. Determine and record a name for eachnetwork.ECU Number Each ECU in a network must be assigned a unique number from1 to 32. The network name and ECU number form the addressof the ECU used by the software. Determine and record uniquenumbers for each ECU in each network.ECU Dispenser Assignment Determine which dispensers are controlled by each ECU.Infinity ECUs can control three dispensersone or two Lasersand one All-Bottle. List Laser dispensers (6, 12, or 16 brand) asdispenser 1 or 2 and All-Bottle dispensers as dispenser 3 of anInfinity ECU. List up to eight tap controllers for each TAP 1ECU, or further divide a TAP 1 ECU into partitions.Partitions (TAP 1 ECUs) A partition is a logical subset of tap controllers defined by you toprovide flexibility in assigning taps to stations. Partitions allowyou to address a portion of a TAP 1 ECU much as if it were aseparate ECU. A partition can be as small as one tap controlleror as large as eight tap controllers. Since many of Infinitys day-to-day operations can only be run on a station or group, you wantto set up your stations to provide the most convenient access formanagement operations. For example, if your bar has twobartender areas, each with an All-Bottle dispenser and a four-faucet beer tower, you only need one TAP 1 ECU, which can bedivided into two partitions with 4 taps at each. This way, you canassign some of the taps to one station, and the rest of them toanother.Determine and record any partitions of TAP 1 ECUs and thenumber of each tap in the partition.If you define more than 4 partitions, the server limit (the numberof servers whose sales the ECU tracks at any given time) isreduced to 10 servers for the partition. (There may be many moreservers authorized for the station.)Stations A station is the smallest part of an Infinity system you candefine for performing day-to-day operations such as runningreports or changing price levels. Infinity automatically creates adefault station name for each ECU (or partition) you set up. The
Getting Started 1-15default is the network name plus the ECU number. You caneither accept these default station names for your ECUs, definenew station names for the ECUs, or combine multiple ECUs(and/or partitions) into a single station. An ECU or partition canonly be in one station.If you plan to run reports that combine ECUs and partitions inseveral different ways (e.g., all beer, restaurant area, first floor),youll want to leave each ECU and partition in its own stationand define groups to combine them in several ways.If you plan to always access a bartenders area together forreports and price level changes, its more convenient for you tocombine the partitions and ECU(s) in the bartenders area intoone station.List a unique name for each station you want to create (if any)and the number of each ECU and partition in the station.Groups A group is simply a name you assign to a combination of stationsand/or other groups for ease in setup, reporting and schedulingactivities. Groups are logical combinations of equipment thathelp you manage the system (e.g., Beer Group, which includesall beer dispensers). An ECU or partition can only be in onestation, but it can be in as many groups as you like.List the name of each group you want to create and the name ofeach station and/or group within it.
