Out Of The Box" Control Of A Pump Station - MultiTrode MultiSmart Installation & Operation Manual

4.4 "Out of the Box" Control of a Pump Station

When the unit is first powered up, it starts controlling a pump station using its default parameters. Although
it's shipped with this basic configuration, the configuration can be easily modified to suit a wide range of
applications by running through the Setup Wizard.
The Setup Wizard takes into account the MultiTrode probe or other level devices, fill or empty applications,
number of pumps, number of wells, station power supply, type of pump sensors and DNP communication
settings.
Even though the basic setup meets most of the normal pump station requirements, with a few button presses
the MultiSmart can be setup to perform most of the complex pump station management requirements.
Changing between a reservoir and a pump station, the number of pumps, the number of wells, or empty
(discharge) to fill (charge) is done through the Setup Wizard and takes only a few minutes, which is far less
time than that required to implement the same functionality using a standard PLC.
Complete station setups can be saved and/or loaded via an SD card or USB.
If the extensive range of existing features do not cover a particular requirement, additional functionality can
be added by writing new code using either Logic Engine (a simple Boolean language) or ISaGRAF (a suite of
PLC languages).
WARNING:
Do not use this unit in environments that may contain flammable/explosive or chemically aggressive
gases or powders.
