Parameterizing With Gw-Gnet - Elster 2 Series Commissioning And Maintenance Instructions

Parameterizing with GW-GNET+

1 Parameterizing with GW-GNET+
gas-net devices are parameterized with a PC or laptop computer and the GAS-
WORKS software system.
All gas-net devices are parameterized with the same GAS-WORKS module
1
called GW-GNET+.
The next two chapters explain in general terms how to create or edit a complete
gas-net parameterization using GW-GNET+ and how to export it to the device. It
is rather easy to learn how to work with the parameterization program. As soon
as you have mastered the techniques, you only need to know the meaning and
effect of each adjustable parameter – no matter which gas-net device type is
actually concerned. We therefore have enclosed a complete parameter list with
additional information in the annex to the first volume of this documentation.
For a detailed description of the parameterization program, please refer to the
context-sensitive online help of GW-GNET+ which is activated by the F1 key. It
2
describes other editing methods the parameterization program offers as well.
Important Note: Parameters protected by the calibration lock can only be
edited via a computer and not at the operator panel, even if the calibration
switch is open.
The following brief description particularly refers to a parameterization that
changes parameters protected by the calibration lock.

Please refer to the GAS-WORKS CD-ROM, which is part of the delivery scope of each
device of Elster, for further information on the GAS-WORKS program system with all the
possibilities it provides. All GAS-WORKS components can be installed from this CD.

It is possible to change the device parameterization or single parameters via an
established data connection between the computer and the device. This is advantageous
with respect to different situations: For instance, you may exchange operational parts of
the parameterization in the GW-GNET+ Edit parameterization mode, even if the
calibration switch is closed. In the Change parameters mode, parameters characterized
as online-changeable can be edited without restarting the device.
