 stalling, operating, or servicing this equipment. Practice all plant and safety instructions and precau-
 tions. Failure to follow instructions can cause personal injury and/or property damage.
 The engine, turbine, or other type of prime mover should be equipped with an overspeed (overtem-
 perature, or overpressure, where applicable) shutdown device(s), that operates totally independently of
 the prime mover control device(s) to protect against runaway or damage to the engine, turbine, or
 other type of prime mover with possible personal injury or loss of life should the mechanical-hydraulic
 governor(s) or electric control(s), the actuator(s), fuel control(s), the driving mechanism(s), the link-
 age(s), or the controlled device(s) fail.
 Any unauthorized modifications to or use of this equipment outside its specified mechanical, electri-
 cal, or other operating limits may cause personal injury and/or property damage, including damage to
 the equipment. Any such unauthorized modifications: (i) constitute "misuse" and/or "negligence"
 within the meaning of the product warranty thereby excluding warranty coverage for any resulting
 damage, and (ii) invalidate product certifications or listings.
 CAUTION
 To prevent damage to a control system that uses an alternator or battery-charging device, make sure
 the charging device is turned off before disconnecting the battery from the system.
 Electronic controls contain static-sensitive parts. Observe the following precautions to prevent dam-
 age to these parts.
 •    Discharge body static before handling the control (with power to the control turned off, contact a
      grounded surface and maintain contact while handling the control).
 •    Avoid all plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam (except antistatic versions) around printed circuit boards.
 •    Do not touch the components or conductors on a printed circuit board with your hands or with

LeoPC1 can be easily installed from your CD-ROM drive. It is a one-click installation. The IXXAT driver that
works with the current LeoPC1 software can be installed from the CD-ROM, too. A detailed explanation of the
installation and configuration process is located in the following section.
                                                Installation
                                ≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
During installation numerous components are installed in your PC due to the multiple versions of LeoPC1 with
differing functionalities. If there are controllers that have been configured with LeoPC1 v2.x or earlier version,
they cannot be reconfigured with later versions of LeoPC1. STD files created by LeoPC1 v2.x or earlier version
are not compatible with LeoPC1 v3.x and higher.
This version will be installed in a different directory than LeoPC1 v2.x or earlier version by default and can be
launched by a different entry than LeoPC1 v2.x or earlier version in the start menu.
Versions 2.x cannot be run after setting up a new version. Due to this it is recommended to uninstall any version
2.x or earlier of LeoPC1 before setting up this new version.
If an IXXAT VCI driver version lower than 3.5.1 is installed on your PC/laptop, e.g. it was installed with LeoPC1
version 2.x or 3.0, you are recommended to follow the instructions given from IXXAT.de to remove the old VCI
version with their tool vciclean.exe before installing the new IXXAT VCI driver from CD-ROM or IXXAT web-
site.
 NOTE
 For detailed information on the relevant files to be installed and in which directory they are to be found
 is located in the annex of this manual; see page 88 ff.
The following files and sub directories will be found in the main program menu directory:
                            Files   System files “*.*”, configuration files “*.cfg”, event memory files “*.dat”,
                                    and files for external tools.

Various plant configurations can be loaded with LeoPC1. The plant configuration functions and layout are de-
pendent on the following:
                      Version of the LeoPC1 being used
                      Devices that are to be communicated with
                      Tasks that to be assigned to devices
                      Requirements that the plant must meet
•    Demo configuration
•    Direct parametric configuration
•    Display configuration
•    Configuration and display configuration
    NOTE
    Due to the numerous control units and possible combinations of these units, it is impossible to cover
    every plant configuration. Operator control will be discussed only in general terms because of this.
    For further information on and examples of configurations, please refer to the following sections:
    “General Configuration” after page 26
    ”Communication and Connection” after page 73
    and the corresponding sections of the manuals for your specific control unit.
Some prerequisites have to be met before you can load your plant configuration (provided that it has not been
done already by installation)
    NOTE
    In some versions of LeoPC1 (e.g. LeoPC1.cfg), it is possible to copy and paste configuration files from
    a floppy disk or a CD-ROM. If too many sub-directories are transferred at one time by this method, the
    possibility of errors occurring in the files is greatly increased.
                            and    Start the copy operation. A dialog window will open displaying the status of
                                   the files that were transferred. This may be acknowledged by clicking
                                                  .
 NOTE
 Ensure that the COM port to be used for configuration has not been assigned to more than one func-
 tion.
 Read the documentation of the device to be configured prior to beginning the configuration of that
 unit.
 All control units will require individual tuning to gain optimum performance within the plant.
 Some older control units require the configuration interface to be activated before configuration can
 be performed.

LeoPC1 may be configured in several different ways. For this purpose it is differentiated between:
General configuration Adaptation of the system settings and the device settings to your plant
Special configuration   Creation of the *.cfg files and *.asm configuration files
 NOTE
 Special configuration is generally not necessary. Your supplier should have already performed all nec-
 essary adaptations to your plant and devices.
 This special configuration is described in more detail in a separate manual 37164.
 NOTE
 Ensure that the general configuration described below can only be accessed/performed by experi-
 enced personnel through the use of the System administrator. Failure to do so may result in these set-
 tings will interfering with your PC operating system, the hardware configurations, and/or the plant con-
 figuration.
The components of the general configuration are subdivided into three areas:
System Configurations
Plant Configurations
                 General options     Definition of the alarm path and of the alarm help file
                             and     definition of the data communication and connection settings
           Service Configuration     Definition of parameters for the data buffer etc.

 NOTE
 A user ID can only be assigned one password and level of access at a time.
 A user ID should be assigned the appropriate level of access when it is created. Only the highlighted
 user ID can have any changes made to the level of access or status. It is not possible to edit a pass-
 word for an active user ID. A user ID that has been deleted cannot be edited or logged onto the system.
 User ID’s that have been deleted can be re-entered as a new user ID if it is desired to use again.
 NOTE
 Only one user can be logged onto LeoPC1 at any one time. If a user is logged on, he/she must log off
 to permit another user to log on to the application. The user ID of the signed on user is displayed at the
 bottom right corner of the LeoPC1 window. The user may be logged off by clicking on the               icon or
 using the “System” button in the tool bar and clicking on “Log off user”

    Path variables for CFG files
 NOTE
 As newly defined variables require an equivalent in the configuration file, it is not recommended add-
 ing or removing any path variables, but merely adapting the directories.
 Example: If the configuration files were stored in a common file on a network so that they may be ac-
 cessed from multiple computers instead of being stored on an individual computer, the pathway to the
 necessary CFG files would be modified here for the computer that will require access to these files.
                   To define paths:    Open the System settings dialog window and click on:
                                       Paths (changes the displayed page)
                                       Desired path variable for CFG file (selected variable is entered into the text
                                       box for editing)
                        Editing box    In the “Path:” text box enter desired path
                                 or
                                       Click on the      icon to open the “'Select Path” dialog window and modify
                                       the pathway to the desired path
                                and
                                       Click                 to enable the new path (the path is relocated to the path
                                       variable)

                                     file folders in the ”Select Path” dialog window.
 NOTE
 Faults that occur on your plant are logged in files that are stored in the directory specified here. This
 directory is always relative to the position of the corresponding plant configuration file (CFG file) and
 not relative to the position of the application file “Main.exe”. This means that if the CFG file is not
 stored in the main directory, the path must be completely specified for the directory “Alarms\” or a cor-
 responding directory must be created in the directory in which the CFG file is located.
 Ensure that the new pathway ends with ”\” or it may not function correctly.
     To define the alarm help file     Select “Devices” from the Command menu, “Settings…” from the drop

Using the dynamic configuration module, LeoPC1 creates the parameter lists and display levels according to the
options selected.
               Device parameters:    The corresponding values are tunable for the individual control unit and de-
                                     termine the parameter list for the individual application modules.
            Language parameters:     The corresponding values from the system data of the application determine
                                     the language for the display of your measured values.

                                    Properties of LeoPC1
Depending on the type and configuration of the devices, LeoPC1 puts the components explained in detail below at
your disposal.
                                                  Displays
                                         ≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
LeoPC1 can display the current values of the connected devices. This permits for a complete overview of the
status of your plant, machines, and devices.
In turn these formats may be configured in various ways and differ in quantity of displayed information (depend-
ing on you’re the user and plant requirements).
The measured values can be displayed separately according to their significance, on plant-related, machine-related
and device-related levels:
               Power plant level:   This displays the most important monitored values of the plant.
                  Machine level:    This displays the most important monitored machine values.
                 Sensors/actors:    These represent all values of monitored devices.
Within these levels it is possible to change randomly between the various displays in compliance with the user’s
needs and thus obtain a complete overview of your plant status. If LeoPC1 is used for configuration only, only a
simple background image is displayed of the plant.
The Plant overview dialog window is composed of the following elements for displays in compliance with your
configuration:
 NOTE
 It is possible to open a *.cfg file by locating it through Windows-Explorer and double clicking on the
 desired file.
 The control unit cannot be configured or updated unless communication between the control unit and
 the PC/laptop has been established.
 If a *.cfg file is opened without a having an automatic connection established, the default values are
 displayed. If the connection is interrupted after a data transfer, the last values displayed will remain on
 the screen.
 NOTE
 The next time this configuration is opened the communication is established automatically. If a con-
 nection to the control unit currently exists, all the configured values are immediately displayed.

LeoPC1 can provide user support for the configuration of a control unit. This program permits a control unit to be
set up for a new application or adapted for new requirements to an existing system within the control unit’s indi-
vidual parameters.
 NOTE
 In some cases it may be necessary to see the parameter list without displaying any configured values
 of a control unit. This can be accomplished by selecting “Devices” from the Command Menu and “Set-
 tings...” from the drop down menu. Click on the “Service Configuration” tab to display the tab page.
 Insert a check mark in the box to the right of the text “Test modus (set data with default values)”. Ver-
 ify any changes made to the tab page by clicking the “OK” button.
 This function enables the user to configure, print, and/or save parameter lists without affecting any se-
 lected drivers or connected devices.
 Do not use STD files that have been created in the Test modus to configure any control units. Some
 parameters will not load correctly unless the control unit is running and communicating with LeoPC1
 when the change to the parameter is made.
 Ensure that the “Test modus” is disabled after it is no longer required. Failure to do so will result in
 the user not being able to configure control units until this function is disabled.
      Device to be parameterized:   Selection via the pull down menu with all corresponding devices
             Relevant parameter:    Display of:
                                    Name (designation of the parameter)

                             and    Rights (read = 'R' and/or write = 'W')
 NOTE
 It is possible to parameterize multiple units by saving the control unit configuration as an STD file. If
 the user desires to transfer the same configuration settings to a second control unit, this is accom-
 plished by utilizing the “Standard Values” dialog window (see "Standard Values" after page 49).
 NOTE
 Communication between the control unit and LeoPC1 must exist for online configuration. If this con-
 nection does not exist, you will be asked whether you wish to start this connection.
                                   Select the desired control unit using the pull down menu with all available
                                   devices listed
                    Figure 3.6
                  Parameterize
 NOTE
 Before the parameters for a control unit may be changed, it may be necessary to enter a password in
 the Parameterize dialog window. If this is required follow the operating instructions that pertain to the
 device being configured.
 NOTE
 After the password has been accepted, the user may change all parameters with write rights ("W" in
 the column Rights). A parameter that has only a read right ("R" in the column Rights) cannot be
 changed.
 NOTE
 For the input dialog window, a range of values that conform to the parameter type may be entered.
 The possible inputs can be found in chapter "Inputs (Configuration and Standard Values)" beginning
 on page 45.
 In contrast to the standard values dialog, the parameters entered via the input dialog windows are
 transferred immediately to the device when the user confirms the input dialog with the ”Ok” button.
 Prior to making any changes, ensure that values being transferred are the required values.
 All parameters that failed to read when prompted are highlighted in blue. The user may attempt to re-
 read these parameters by clicking on the “Marked Rows” button.
 NOTE
 The file name must end with ".std" and the file must have the STD format. The current settings will be
 saved in STD format in the file specified by the user. The STD file may be modified offline without an
 existing connection or for archiving as standard values that may be transferred to a control unit
 through the Standard Values procedure.

LeoPC1 permits the user to archive plant-specific parameter settings as standard value files. These files can be
stored and modified offline. The user may later transfer these files to the appropriate device. This function permits
the user to quickly configure multiple control units of the same design to the same configuration of a pre-existing
control unit.

 NOTE
 Only one path of communication should exist with a device that is going to be parameterized with
 standard values. The path of communication should be initiated prior to opening the “Standard Val-
 ues” dialog window if any parameters are going to be transferred. If parameter values are just going to
 be modified and not transferred, it is not necessary to establish communication with the control unit.
 If only one control unit needs to have the parameters modified, it is better to perform these modifica-
 tions online with the “Parameterization” dialog window ... (see "General Configuration” starting on
 page 26).
 When configuring with the “Standard Values” dialog window, only load files that have been taken from
 identical control units. Do Not use empty STD files (i.e. STD files from the demo). If empty STD files are
 used, errors in the configuration may occur under certain circumstances.
                                    Click
                              and Select the desired *.std file from the “Open” file dialog window.

                                    tom of the “Standard Values” dialog window.
 NOTE
 Prior to changing any parameters in a control unit, the level 2 password must be entered into the de-
 vice. Follow the procedure for entering a password that applies to the individual control unit.
                                    Next click on
                               or   Double click on the text line for the password (the “Input” dialog window
                                    will open)

 NOTE
 After the password has been accepted, all parameters with write rights ("W" in the column Rights) may
 be changed. A parameter that has only read rights ("R" in the column Rights) cannot be changed.
                To parameterize:    Open the ”Standard Values” dialog window and click on:
                                    Desired parameter (scroll in parameter list to the corresponding position)
                                    Click on                   (an input dialog window appropriate for the pa-
                                    rameter is opened)
 NOTE
 There are various input dialog windows for entering parameter values. The input dialog windows vary
 according to the type of parameter.
 The possible inputs may be found in the "Inputs (Configuration and Standard Values)” chapter starting
 on page 45.
 Unlike the configuration dialog window, the values modified here are not transferred immediately to
 the control unit. These values must be transferred separately.
 If parameter cannot be written an error message is displayed.
                     To transfer:   Open the “Standard Values” dialog window and click on:

and The desired file via the “Save as” dialog window
 NOTE
 When saving a file, the file name must end with ".std" and the file must have the STD format. After a
 file has been saved in this format, it is available for modification or archiving as standard values that
 can be loaded and transferred at a future date. Saving the file again is only required if the values of the
 previously loaded file been changed.

        Device to be controlled:    Selection via pull down menu with all available devices
   Measured values to be logged:    Selection via pull down menu with the specific measured values
                Selected values:    Display on data diagram with time and value axis
          Logging parameters:       Display of sampling rate and logging time period
        Display individual line:    Option that displays only the selected measured value
          Display several lines:    Option that displays all measured values defined in a maximum of 8 buttons
 NOTE
 It is possible to set data logging when the configuration is started.
 NOTE
 File name must end in ".llo" and the file must have the format LLO.

and Select the file to be loaded from the “Open” file dialog window
 NOTE
 Set the tick desired by you to activate the option.
               Desired editing box:    Sampling rate (enter value between 2 and 120 seconds)
                             and/or    Logging time period (value between 1 and 32,767 minutes possible)
                                                      (Parameter dialog is closed)
 NOTE
 Prior to starting data logging ensure that there is enough storage space for the file that is created.
 When smaller sampling rates for longer periods of time are utilized, the larger the file size becomes. If
 adequate storage space is not available for the data-logging file, the data logging will not occur. Files
 of several megabytes can be produced quickly with long periods of data logging. The file for the data
 logging session is create prior to the session starting, preventing the hard drive space being utilized
 for other applications.
             Select desired options:   Complete logging time period (according to the specified time)
                                  or   Individual setting

LeoPC1 can log specific criteria of selected events from the available control units. The monitored parameters for
this selective logging are displayed as a guide value.
 NOTE
 Only one event can be monitored at a time. If the monitored fault condition occurs during the follow-up
 time, the event is not logged. The short-term storage is still processing the data from the previous fault
 occurrence and is not reset for monitoring.
 The parameter settings described in the following text are dependent upon the configured settings and
 the configuration of the plant to be monitored. If a low save interval setting is configured and a large
 data base must be processed or a low Hold-back time is configured, the result may be that the time in-
 terval that is save is larger than the time interval that was configured.

                       Communication and Connection
LeoPC1 can communicate with other software and hardware. It has to be differentiated between the following
communication types:
Various drivers and a data export are available to the user for these communications and are explained in further
detail below.
                                         General Information
                                ≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
Hardware and software interfaces are at the center of the data communication. Correct connection, settings, and
operator control are required to ensure that the communication functions correctly. Take the following informa-
tion into consideration where it relates to your requirements. If there are any questions or problems, refer to the
supplied documentation or contact the manufacturer of the product (e.g. modem, CAN card, cables, etc.).
Direct Interface
The direct driver of LeoPC1 provides permits the user to directly configure the control unit through a serial con-
nection to the computer and an RJ45 connection on the control unit. The RS-232 standard for communications is
utilized with this function. The device will dictate the number of functions that may be performed through this
method of communication.
LeoPC1 provides the user with the ability to utilize the Gateway RS-232 driver. This permits the user to config-
ure the control unit with the RS-232 standard without using an RJ45 connection. This does require the user to
drive a Gateway RS-232 in the system. This method of communication assumes that all devices in the system are
communicating via a CAN bus. This method of interfacing permits the user to utilize most of the properties of
LeoPC1.
Modem Interface
LeoPC1 provides the user with the ability to utilize a modem driver. This permits the user to configure the control
units via an analog modem through the RS-232 standard without using an RJ45 connection. This does require the
user to drive an analog modem in the system. This method of communication assumes that all devices in the sys-
tem are communicating via a CAN bus. This method of interfacing permits the user to utilize most of the proper-
ties of LeoPC1.
Direct Interface
Modem Interface
 NOTE
 These wiring diagrams are only examples. Depending on the devices, other connections may be re-
 quired. Refer to the manual for the specific requirements of your device.
 NOTE
 Before the drivers can be utilized, the hardware configuration of the control units must conform to the
 relevant circuit diagram or according to the unit documentation. Furthermore, you should check the
 software configuration with the aid of the steps described and, if necessary, adapt it to suit your re-
 quirements. In addition to the hardware requirements.
 If the required driver is not installed on the computer to be utilized, the LeoPC1 installation program
 must be re-initiated and the required drivers installed. If only the demo version of LeoPC1 is available,
 contact your support team for assistance with obtaining the required drivers.
Select the desired driver (pull down menu with all installed drivers)
                       Figure 4.6
      Settings for Serial Drivers
 NOTE
 Information about COM port assignment can be obtained via:
 - Start...Settings… Control Panel...System and corresponding selection of the options.
 Information about the permissible baud rate can be obtained from the device’s documentation. For ex-
 ample, the Gateway operates at 9,600 baud. If any problems occur, the selected driver can still be indi-
 vidually configured by clicking on ”                       ” and adapted to the plant.
 Most configuration files are have default values for the communication methods that do not required
 the user to modify these parameters. Only modem connections may require that the user to modify the
 settings according to the individual system conditions.
Depending on the driver, the user can modify the following settings in this dialog window:

Flow chart: This flow chart shows you the steps LeoPC1 take when attempting to establish communication with
a device. This chart can be helpful determining what values may need to be adapted to your individual require-
ments.
1.   When a command is written/sent, the time for "timeout after writing a command" and "timeout for read-
     ing the answer" is started. If a valid answer is received before the time expires, the next command starts or
     the procedure ends.
2.   If an invalid answer is received, the "timeout after reading an invalid answer" is started. If this time ex-
     pires without receiving a valid answer, the "number of repetitions while reading the answer" is activated
     and begins its cycle at "timeout for reading the answer".
3.   If a valid answer is not received see step #6.
4.   If no answer is received, the time for "timeout if no answer has been received" is started. If this time ex-
     pires without receiving an answer, the "number of repetitions while reading the answer" is activated and
     begins its cycle at "timeout for reading the answer".
5.   If an answer is not received see step #6.
6.   If the "number of repetitions while reading the answer" has elapsed without a valid answer being re-
     ceived, the "number of repetitions for send command" is initiated and the procedure begins again at step
     #1.
7.   If the "number of repetitions for send command" is run through without a valid answer, the procedure is
     aborted.

 NOTE
 If you would like to establish a connection to a foreign country, it is recommended that each timeout
 be increased to 60 seconds or more so that the connection can be established.
 If problems still occur with the connection, please refer to the operating instructions for the modem or
 contact its manufacturer.
                       Figure 4.8
             Settings for Modem
 NOTE
 A connection to the device or devices must exist in order to use the drivers for communication. The
 exception to this is the demo driver. The demo driver is designed to demonstrate within certain limits
 the properties of LeoPC1 with requiring a connection to a control device.
When the configuration buttons are clicked on, LeoPC1 will prompt the user to initiate communication with the
control unit if communications have not already been established. Communications can be specified to start auto-
matically when the plant configuration loaded. The procedures for this are shown in the following text.
 NOTE
 The status for communication is displayed on the level bar by the appearance of the following icons:
                   Figure 4.10
               General Options
                                   Place a check mark in the box to the left of ”Start communication automati-
                                   cally while loading system configuration”
 NOTE
 If this option is selected, LeoPC1 will attempt to establish a connection with the control unit immedi-
 ately after the plant configuration is loaded. If this option is not selected, the user must start the com-
 munication.
 NOTE
 Take note of the communication parameters required or desired by the individual plant. Prior to termi-
 nating the connection ensure whether or not the connection is to be used for remote configuration or
 control.
 NOTE
 LeoPC1 currently supports IXXAT products with VCI driver version 1.17 up to 3.5.1.
 For example:
     •    iPC-I 320, iPC-I 165 (ISA-PC cards)
     •    iPC-I 320 PCI, iPC-I 165 PCI (PCI-PC cards)
     •    tinCAN (PCMCIA-Interface, full support only with 'IXXAT VCI2 CAN' – driver or higher)
     •    USB-to-CAN compact Interface (support only with 'IXXAT VCI2 CAN' – driver or higher)
 Not all CAN-interfaces are supported by all operation systems where LeoPC1 can be installed.
 It is not possible to use more than one IXXAT driver version at a time. If an IXXAT driver version earlier
 than 3.5.1 is installed on the PC/laptop, the user will be prompted to completely delete this file. If VCI
 1.xx has never been installed or after the files have been deleted, driver version VCI 2.xx can be in-
 stalled by using the LeoPC1 software installation utility.
By means of the CAN bus driver LeoPC1 provides the user the ability to connect the control units via the CAN
bus to a PC/laptop, provided that the PC is compatible with one of the listed CAN cards. This interface permits
the user’s PC/laptop to be automatically connected to the plant, machines, and devices. The user can set parame-
ters, control remotely, display, and load languages if necessary.
You will find the circuit diagrams for the individual network card drivers here:
 NOTE
 Before the drivers can be utilized, the hardware configuration of the control units must conform to the
 relevant circuit diagram or according to the unit documentation. Furthermore, you should check the
 software configuration with the aid of the steps described and, if necessary, adapt it to suit your re-
 quirements. In addition to the hardware requirements
 If the required driver is not installed on the computer to be utilized, the LeoPC1 installation program
 must be re-initiated and the required drivers installed. If only the demo version of LeoPC1 is available,
 contact your support team for assistance with obtaining the required drivers.
Select the CAN bus driver (pull down menu with all installed drivers)

 your plant.
                         Timeout     The amount of time LeoPC1 will wait for an answer to a sent command
             Number of repetitions   How many times a command is re-sent to the CAN bus card after a timeout.
 NOTE
 The following entries require detailed knowledge of the device and protocol that is used.
 NOTE
 Select the               button to change the allocation table between device no. and CAN ID no. The
 “Allocate device No. To CAN-ID” dialog window is opened for the purpose of managing the device no.
 and CAN ID allocation table. This dialog window permits the user to change or delete existing entries
 and add new entries by marking the desired lines, changing the required inputs, and/or clicking on the
 corresponding button.
 All connected CAN bus device numbers must be assigned here with LeoPC1. If no entry appears in
 this list box, communication via the CAN driver is not possible. CAN-IDs should not be assigned to
 more than one device. The CAN-ID for sending a command should not be assigned a device number.

  Allocate Device No. To CAN-ID
For demonstration purposes LeoPC1 displays a driver without devices being connected. Only the time delay for
saving for this demo driver can be configured. No other configurations can be achieved.
 NOTE
 The user can adapt the system settings according to the plant requirements if required.
 NOTE
 If no data exists, refer to “Procedure for Data Logging” on page 56 and follow the user instructions in
 order to log and save the required data your plant.

The Data for Data Logging is stored in the Swap File and not in a Normal File.
Please check whether there is a subfolder named DL in your folder containing the configuration file. If not, create
this folder, as the data logging files are stored here. If this folder does not exist, the data logging files will be
stored in the swap file.
Starting the Configuration the Message appears: "File not found *.opt"
The required *.opt file is expected to be located in the sub directory ”Tools”. It must be in the same directory as
the cfg file, which has to be opened. For example the *.cfg file is located in:
" C:\Program Files\Woodward\LeoPC1\cfg ", then the *.opt file is expected to be located in:
" C:\Program Files\Woodward\LeoPC1\Tools ".
 NOTE
 Modem connections from LeoPC1 must comply with the operating instructions for the modem being
 utilized. Other AT commands may result from this pre-specified as defaults.
Problem 3: Reading and writing of individual parameter values possible via input, but parame-
ters are not being read when “Read All” is used.
 NOTE
 It is recommended to establish communication with a control device via the “Parameterization” dialog
 window to perform readout of the parameters and storage of the STD file rather than producing an STD
 file offline that will be loaded into a control unit at a later date.
