Section 9 ACS 450 PC Tool
Introduction 9-1
The LMV5 system can be completely set-up (parameters adjusted and combustion / O2 trim
curves set) buy using the AZL5 or by using a PC with ACS450 software. Most people find that
using the AZL5 is more convenient than the ACS450 for a "manual" set-up of the LMV5
parameters. However, the ACS450 has additional capabilities that are not available with the
AZL5 / LMV5 alone. These additional, valuable capabilities are:
1) Saving and / or printing out all LMV5 settings, combustion curves, and information in a
report format. This provides a convenient, comprehensive start-up report.
2) Saving and / or uploading entire LMV5 parameter sets to or from a PC.
3) Updating AZL5 software.
4) The ability to view and save trends (particularly useful for tuning PID loops)
5) A "dashboard" to view all of the LMV5 inputs and outputs as well as the operating state.
The pages following the installation and set-up procedure will explain how to execute these
additional functions that the ACS450 offers.
Since most people prefer to use the AZL5 to set parameters and combustions curves, the
procedure to do this with ACS450 will not be covered in detail.
Document number CC1J7550en covers setting parameters and combustion curves with the
ACS450 in greater detail.
Before the ACS450 can be used, it must be installed on the PC and the correct cables obtained.
The next few pages will describe the installation and set-up in detail.
Note: ACS450 can be used with the following PC operating systems:
ACS450 cannot be used with:
