    RSI installed at the site designated as Primary ESI site. The ESI site timeout setting determines how long the Arcturus will wait for a response from the primary RSI or ESI Plus. The ESI site max retries setting determines how many times it will retry the primary site before attempting to connect to the Backup ESI site.
  • Page 48: Authorization Codes

    For example, you could configure capture data once per hour, but only download it to AutoPilot once per day. Since the data is stored locally on the Arcturus, you can continue to perform captures even in the absence of network connectivity.
  • Page 49 Captured data always includes Channel 1, and can be set to include up to the entire 256 channels. A large block of memory is reserved to store the captured values locally on the Arcturus. When this memory fills up, the oldest set of captured data is discarded, making room for a new capture. In this way, the most recent captures are always available for download via AutoPilot.

  • Page 56: Meter Graph

    REARM DELAY The Arcturus has a built-in mechanism to reduce multiple alarm reports due to a single alarm event. An out-of- tolerance metering channel that returns to tolerance must remain within normal limits for a period of time before a new alarm is issued on that channel.
  • Page 57: Meter Actions

    Arcturus, in AutoPilot software, and on the web page. If email alarm reporting and/or dial-out notifications are enabled (dial-out requires connection to an ARC Plus equipped with RSI or ESI), outbound notifications will also be sent. When entering your limits, keep in mind the lowest limit value should be the critical low and the highest should be the critical high.
  • Page 58: Alarm Conditions

    When the Arcturus detects that the level has entered the warning region, it starts a timer based on the Alarm Delay for that channel. If the level is still in the warning region at the end of the Alarm Delay, the system reports the alarm condition and executes the Meter Alarm Action •...
  • Page 59: Meter Notifications

    METER NOTIFICATIONS Each channel can be configured to send email and/or dial-out notifications when an alarm condition exists and the channel’s alarm is enabled (and not muted). The critical thresholds and warning thresholds can each initiate phone calls and emails to separate lists. Each channel can be configured to send email and/or dial-out notifications when an alarm condition exists and the channel’s alarm is enabled (and not muted).
  • Page 60: Meter Display

    METER SPEECH LABELS The Arcturus can store speech labels that can be accessed via a networked Arcturus configured with RSI or ESI. The settings on the Meter Speech Labels tab assign pre-recorded vocabulary to each channel and unit Additional words or phrases may be added to the RSI label.
  • Page 61: Calibrating Meter Inputs

    CALIBRATING METER INPUTS Metering values are scaled according to the input type specified on the Metering Channels tab (Click or turn to METER CHANNELS), and a calibration constant is applied to all input types except Millivolt and Degree. The calibration constant converts the scaled value to a calibrated value, corresponding to the actual reading on the parameter being monitored.
  • Page 62: Status

    Labels can be up to twenty (20) characters. INVERTING A STATUS CHANNEL Normally a status “high” input results in the Arcturus showing a status “on” condition. If you want a status “low” input to result in the “on” condition, check the box under the Invert heading.

  • Page 64: Status Alarms

    The Off Time setting determines the amount of time a status channel must be in the non-alarm state before the Arcturus turns the alarm off. This setting prevents a brief interruption in a status signal from ending an alarm condition.
  • Page 65: Rearm Delay

    REARM DELAY The Arcturus has a built-in mechanism to reduce multiple alarm reports due to a single alarm event. A status channel in alarm must remain in its normal state for a period of time before a new alarm is issued on that channel.
  • Page 66: Status Notifications

    STATUS NOTIFICATIONS The Arcturus can send dial-out notifications when it is networked with an ARC Plus unit configured with ESI or RSI. Use the Status Notifications Tab to determine which email lists and/or dial-out lists are used to notify operators of status alarms.

    Macro assigned to a channel’s respective raise and lower commands. Note: You can always run/stop macros from the macro list. This option instructs the Arcturus to send SNMP messages by SNMP issuing raise or lower commands to the channel. This option allows you to start, stop or reset a timer when a raise or lower command is issued.
  • Page 70 USING A COMMAND TO SEND AN SNMP MESSAGE SNMP has been selected in the Source dialog shown above. Based on the Command Type setting for the channel, either a “Momentary” or “Latching” SNMP command sequence will be sent when a raise or lower command is initiated.
  • Page 71 For command channels set to “Latching”: • A Raise command causes transmission of the “Raise On” OID, instructing the SNMP device to latch in the On condition. (The “Lower Off” OID, if programmed, is also sent at this time.) In most situations it is only necessary to program the “Raise On”...
  • Page 72: Virtual Channels

    VIRTUAL CHANNELS PRIMER Virtual Channels are a very flexible tool used to synthesize meaningful data from simple inputs. As a simple example, if you have a temperature probe in the transmitter room (or intake plenum) and a stack probe in the exhaust plenum, a virtual channel can be used to show the heat rise.
  • Page 73 Any unused channel can be used as a virtual channel. Here’s how: In AutoPilot, go to the Meter Channels or Status Channels tab and click the […] icon under the Source heading to access the Source dialog box. Click on the Virtual Channel radio button to make this a virtual channel. Enter the Virtual Channel Expression as desired in the field provided.
  • Page 74: Examples

    MIN/MAX/AVERAGE The Arcturus allows for setting metering channels to normal, minimum, maximum or average. Typically, the real- time value is also to be displayed, so put any desired calculated values on virtual channels. In fact, you could devote 4 channels to one input, using separate virtual channels for min, max and average.
  • Page 75: Meter Validation

    METER VALIDATION If two methods of measuring output power vary by more than a small amount, it brings metering validity into question and should be investigated. If you have more than one way of determining output power, you can validate your meter samples by constantly comparing in real-time. Here is an example: Meter 1 is XMTR Power Out Meter 2 is ANT Power In The expression to compare the two values (in percent) is:...
  • Page 76: Command Fault Checking

    If no status signal is available, there may be a metering value you can use like this: R1 XOR (M1>90) To prevent false alarms at startup, add a little delay to the alarm. VSWR COMPUTATION Displaying VSWR on an Arcturus is easy using virtual channels. Meter Source Label...
  • Page 77: Macros

    MACROS The Arcturus features on-board macros for automatic responses to conditions at the remote site, scheduled activities based on time-of-day, or calendar-based routines that reference pre-configured calendar times. MACRO PRIMER Macros consist of a series of individual lines that generally act in sequence. There are only three types of macro lines: branching, actions and IF statements.
  • Page 78: If Statements

    IF STATEMENTS When a macro is started, it executes lines sequentially unless it is redirected by a goto. Each statement has a comparison which is evaluated for true or false. A goto is included in every statement, but it is conditional on the results of the comparison.
  • Page 79: Examples

    EXAMPLES Here are a few examples to get you going. You will want to look through MACRO EXPRESSIONS to see how some of the statements work. RUN ON TUESDAY This is a simple macro that makes sure our coffee is ready when we get to the site for weekly maintenance. The macro is scheduled for our normal maintenance time, but will only start the coffee on Tuesday, our maintenance day.
  • Page 80 ALARM COUNT This macro nags you every hour until you respond to the fact that there are 10 or more alarms. This could be set to run at startup so it is always on. During maintenance you could stop it manually. If alarm count on site "BURK-FM"...
  • Page 81 SWITCH TRANSMITTERS This macro toggles to the other transmitter, no matter which one is on. It also leaves a trail of messages in the event log so it is easy to see what happened if the transfer is not successful. Turn macro "AUTO ON"...
  • Page 82 ANTENNA MONITOR An older antenna monitor that has to be scanned for the phase and ratio readings can be read with a macro like this. The antenna monitor phase and ratio are stored in separate channels for each tower. The values are held until the next set of samples is taken.
  • Page 83: Macro Expressions

    Date/time and day-of-week statements all reference the date/time or day-of-week as reported by the local Arcturus unit. For example, if you are programming a macro to execute a command at noon Eastern Time, but the Arcturus is configured to display Pacific Time, set the If Time statement to use 9:00AM.
  • Page 84: Memory

    Note that a remote Arcturus cannot act upon a macro that resides on a different unit. Tests the expression based on the value of the specified variable. The Arcturus stores up to 256 If Memory variables, all of which can be acted on by any macro onboard the local Arcturus.
  • Page 85: Tarting And Stopping Acros
