24V/300mA, 5V/100mA, 16x AC signal output ICP powering The A3764 unit contains own ICP power supplying. It means the ICP is not switched from A3716 unit. All sensors are continuously powered and no additional settling time is required. All sensors connected to A3764 inputs are always powered.
A3716 IP address setting (the same for the A3800) A3716 rack basically behaves as a local PC and it has its own IP address under which it is recognized in your network. Most common situation is that you will need to change the A3716 rack IP address because of your company’s policy.
A3716, A3800 Network remote access Second option how to change the A3716 IP address is to do it through network. Use the LAN cable and connect the A3716 unit with PC (laptop) directly or through network (switch/HUB). IP address (set during production) is written on the A3716 front panel.

It is a software in each A3716 measurement unit. Performs specified measurements and provides readings to Data Manager software. Once you will install the Adash server, you can also install DDS on the server and on remaining user computers. The installation is identical on all components and the installation wizard will guide you through the entire process.

A3716 (A3800) lock As the units A3716 are accessible to all users in network, the more users can use the unit at the same time. To avoid this situation we use the functions Lock/Unlock. When you use the Lock function, your computer and database is registered in the A3716 unit as the only one computer which can have access to online data collection.
A3716, A3800 Adaptive algorithm for readings The A3716 can take readings (setting using the DDS) completely different way than other systems. Let's explain it on example. In the past the time interval between readings must have been defined. E.g. if 1 minute was defined, then the reading was triggered every minute. The time length of reading was e.g.

You can modify this file via DDS. In A3716 units list use right-click and Download online.cfg. You save it and you can edit it by Notepad. Use the Upload online.cfg to send it back to A3716 unit. New parameters are applied after the project is restarted ( or A3716 unit is restarted).
Note: Adaptive algorihm is enabled. Static values, short dynamics and long dynamics are saved every 6 hours if there is no change according to adaptive algorithm.

Time synchronization of A3716 (A3800) It is important to keep internal time of all A3716 units up to date. In the beginning set the correct time zone in A3716. The Data_Manager synchronizes time in all A3716 units with the time on Adash server.
A3716, A3800 A3716 (A3800) Update This chapter is appointed for advanced users only. 1) Connect a keyboard, a mouse and a monitor to your A3716 device (or you can use remote desktop connection). 2) Login as user remote (password remote).
