CONTROL PANEL Display Panel Controller The display panel is a rugged Controller Area Network or CAN. This is a means of linking all of the electronic systems within the saw together allowing them to communicate with each other. This section explains the functions of the unit, describes the display screens and gives details about the configuration.
CONTROL PANEL Soft Key Commands Columns of vertical commands may be located to the left and/or right of the display. They will change according to the options available for the screen being displayed. There are four basic icons associated with the soft key commands. These icons allow for the navigation through the sub-menus, selection of commands, or deselection of commands.
CONTROL PANEL Home Screen When the saw is operating, all essential parameters are monitored from the “Home” screen through a series of gauges and displays. At the center of the screen is a large digital gauge showing the blade speed (RPM), fuel level, and accumulated engine hours. Below that at the bottom of the screen is a digital bar gauge showing engine speed (RPM).
Utilities This menu is used for recalibration of the depth stop sensor or to calibrate a new sensor. If access to this menu is required, contact Diamond Products Technical Department at (800) 321-5336. Engine Diagnostics This menu will open a screen of stored historic fault codes. These codes can be toggled through using the Up and Down arrow keys to the right of the screen.
CONTROL PANEL User Settings This menu will display a screen allowing the operator to change some parametric settings. The yellow Up and Down arrows on the left allow you to move the cursor through the options. When the cursor highlights an option that can be changed, gray Up and Down arrows will appear on the right side of the display.
CONTROL PANEL Enter Key Operations This feature is used when uploading new programs to the controller. Display Panel Operation Turning the ignition key switch to ON will open up the “Select Blade Size” screen with all active faults at the bottom of the screen. The active faults can be toggled through using the two lower function keys (Left &...
CONTROL PANEL The speed reducing gearbox has a temperature switch that will display an active fault message when the gearbox temperature reaches 180°F (82°C). The message can be turned off by using the upper right hand key on the controller. The high temperature fault will remain active until the condition clears.
