Z-Con Pump Provisioning Application Guide
Function:
This application is required to apply network settings to the pump board and to calibrate the distance to
ground for each lane. It provides a quick and easy way to view and edit the settings of a pump board.
Necessary Equipment:
1. Laptop equipped with Z-Con Pump Provisioning Tool
2. Provisioning Cable #80582 RJ45 to Serial RS-422 (Provided)
3. Internet Connection (on older installations)
*Default settings for the pump board are in the left column and the default store settings are in the right, in this example, store
00100.
28 Rev:4/15/2011
Provisioning Tool Steps:
1.Start at lowest numbered lane
2.Launch the Provisioning Application (from Start Menu or Desktop Icon).
3.Once started, the application attempts to connect to the update server and download a new flatfile.
This flatfile will contain the information for every station supported by Z-Con. You will need an internet
connection.
o The application is installed with the most recent flatfile already provided, so the above step is
only necessary on older installations.
4.Go to ‘Station Choose from station list’. Enter the store number or select from the drop down, once
selected or entered click OK.
5.Connect serial end of the provisioning cable to your computer and the other to the bottom right RJ45
port on the pump board (pictured below).
6.Choose the proper COM port that corresponds to the proper serial port.
7.On the pump board, briefly short the AUX pins by tapping lightly with a screwdriver to enter the board
into Provisioning Mode. To verify provisioning mode look for bottom LED to be flashing
8.Adjust the values in the right hand column (see picture on page 1 for reference) to fit the individual
pump
9.Click ‘Write Settings to Board’. Once the output text box says ‘Done!’, provisioning is finished.
10.Next, verify an ultrasonic transducer is connected to the pump board, click ‘Calibrate Distance to
Ground’. Make sure that there is NOT a vehicle in the lane when calibrating the distance to ground
11.Click ‘Get Current Values’ to verify correct values have been set. The values will appear in the left
column.
o If the values you submitted differ at all from the ones that are returned, the button in between
the fields will turn red. Repeat steps 7 and 8 until the values are accurate.
12. Check that the value for distance to ground is similar to the chart below, distance is displayed in
inches. Please note that this may take several attempts to attain an accurate reading.
DISTANCE FROM SENSOR TO GROUND
(FT.) DISTANCE FROM SENSOR TO GROUND
(IN.)
16’ 192”
17’ 204”

Failed to Retrieve Settings Commonly triggered when the provisioning cable is not
connected to the pump board or the pump board is not in
‘provisioning mode’. If the problem persists, the pump
board is either not receiving the request for its settings, or
the computer is not receiving the pump board’s response.
The provisioning cable or the pump board may be faulty,
test a known functioning pump board to determine which
is malfunctioning.
Board Not Provisioned. Found Some
Fields With Invalid Values If you see this error, one or more of the fields will be
colored red. These fields have invalid values in them and
need to be changed before you can Submit. See the
output text box for more information.
X Value Couldn’t Be Retrieved:
Invalid Data Stored Values in the EEPROM are either invalid or there
was an error when retrieving the values from the board.
Try ‘Get Current Values’ again, submit a new value to the
board and try to ‘Get Current Values’ again. If the
30 Rev:4/15/2011
problem persists, the ARM or the EEPROM may be faulty.
‘X’ Could Not Be Opened. Please

the Right COM Port
Occurs when the serial port connection is not made
properly. Most common causes are either choosing a
serial port from the dropdown currently inactive or
choosing a serial port that is currently claimed by another
program or device. Check your connections and Device
Manager, and shut down any other telnet/terminal
programs that may be open on your laptop.
GUI Objects Function
Checkboxes Used to enable or disable specific text fields. When ‘submit’ is clicked, only the
enabled fields will be programmed onto the pump board. When saving a .prov
file, only the enabled fields will be saved. The very top checkbox can be used
to enable or disable all fields with a single click.

text fields.
Recall Last
Submitted Values Displays the values that were last submitted to a pump board. This is useful for
comparing the values you attempted to store in a pump board with the actual
values retrieved with ‘Get Current Values’.
Calibrate Distance to
Ground Sets the pump board to read the current value of the distance from the
ultrasonic sensor in the canopy to the ground. During ‘Default Mode’, if the
current transducer value is significantly below the saved Distance to Ground
Value, the pump board registers that a truck has arrived and attempts to
connect to the truck via radio. Otherwise, it assumes that that the ‘truck’ as left
and shuts off any radio connections.
Submit Checks all of the current settings in the text fields, returning with errors if any
are not valid. If there are no errors, it attempts to set any checked text fields
onto the board and save those values to local memory. These values can be
recalled with ‘Recall Last Submitted Values’.
Save Saves the current, enabled values to a .prov file for later use or to share
between PCs.
Load Loads a saved .prov file, overwriting any text fields with the values that were
last saved.

Hardware Troubleshooting Guide
The Z-Con Canopy Kit is composed of two devices: an ultrasonic sensor and the Antenna & IR Receiver.
These devices are installed on the underside of the canopy in each fuel lane.
If validation of the pump hardware is not successful, please refer to the troubleshooting sections below for
each device.
Ultrasonic Sensor
The ultrasonic sensor receives power from the pump board over the CAT5 cable which is also
used to transmit data from the ultrasonic sensor to the pump board.
To verify the ultrasonic sensor is working, verify the pump board is powered up
(Illuminated LEDs indicate the board is receiving power). Attach the ultrasonic sensor to
the CAT5 cable in the canopy and listen for a faint "ticking" noise. If you hear a “ticking”
noise the sensor is receiving power and should be working.
If you do not hear a ticking noise use a short CAT5 patch cable to attach an ultrasonic
sensor to the pump board. If you hear ticking, the cabling between the pump board and
canopy is faulty.
If you do not hear ticking then either the pump board or sensor is bad. Use a known
good sensor to verify the problem is with the pump board or the sensor.
If the sensor is "clicking" when installed then you should see "valid" data on the Z-Con
Pump Provisioning Tool. Valid Data would be around 200" depending on the height of
the canopy.
If the data in the Z-Con Pump Provisioning Tool does not look reasonable try swapping
the ultrasonic sensor with a known good sensor.
Infrared Receiver (IR Receiver)
The IR receiver receives power from the pump board over the CAT5 cable which is also used to
transmit data from the IR receiver to the pump board.
To verify the cabling to the IR receiver is working, you can use an ultrasonic sensor to
verify power is getting to the IR receiver. Attach an ultrasonic sensor to the IR receiver
cable, make sure the other end is attached to the IR receiver port on the pump board
and listen for "ticking". This will verify that power is getting to the IR receiver.
If there is no ticking then use a short CAT5 patch cable to attach an ultrasonic sensor to
the IR receiver port on the pump board. You should hear ticking, if not, the pump board
is bad.
If there is ticking then you can attach the IR receiver to the pump board using the short
CAT5 patch cable and point the Pump Validation Tool directly at the IR receiver.
