Saving and Uploading Parameter Sets 9-4
The following steps outline the procedure for saving parameter sets from a LMV5 to a PC and
also uploading parameter sets from a PC to a LMV5.
Saving the .par file
1) Ensure that the ACS 450 software is open, and the PC is connected to the AZL5 at the
service or at the OEM level. See installation and set-up 9-2 if necessary.
2) To save a LMV5 parameter set to a PC, go to the ACS450 System LMV5x dropdown
menu, and select Back-up LMV > PC.
3) A window will appear titled Backup Info, and will have a message at the bottom stating
the status. The Status will start as "1" and will proceed to saying Input file name. From
the time the window appears to when the message states Input file name could take up
to three minutes, but is usually less.
4) A comment can be typed in if desired. If not, click on Save in file and another window
will come up. In this window, type the file name (a name containing the burner ID is
recommended) and select an appropriate folder to save the file. Click on Save.
5) When being saved, the message on the backup info window should state Reading
parameters. When saving is completed successfully, the message should say
Success, press Close. The .par file is now stored on the PC in the specified location.
Note: The default location for .par file storage is C:\Program files\ ASC450 \ daten.
The .par file is stored in machine language, so it is not useful as a start-up report.
The .mdb file (a window will appear to save this when disconnect is selected)
contains text that is useful as a start-up report.
Creation of the .mdb is covered in section 9-3.
Uploading the .par file
6) Ensure that the ACS 450 software is open, and the PC is connected to the AZL5 at the
service or at the OEM level. See installation and set-up 9-2 if necessary.
7) To upload a parameter set from the PC to the LMV5, go to the ACS450 System LMV5x
dropdown menu, and select Restore PC > LMV.
8) A prompt will appear, asking for the desired .par file (parameter set). Select the desired
.par file (parameter set) and click on Open. This .par (parameter set) will overwrite
the parameter set on the LMV5 and will determine the behavior of the LMV5.
Be sure that the correct .par file is selected.
9) A window will appear titled Restore PC > LMV. If the message on the bottom of the
window states Burner ID ok, or New base unit the proceed to step 9. If the message
states Burner ID is different proceed to the next step.
10) If the burner ID contained in the .par file (parameter set) is different than the burner ID
on the LMV5, ACS450 will not permit the .par file to be uploaded to the LMV5. The
exception to this is if the burner ID on the LMV5 is blank. If the burner ID is blank, then
the upload is permitted. If the burner ID is different, two options are available. The next
two steps (11 and 12) detail these options.
