FDC-2010-K5C (Main View) Runtime Menus:
The FDC-2010-K5C runtime menu system provides a familiar, easy to use interface while reducing screen “clutter” by eliminating extra buttons required for navigation. Each series of interface screens will have their own series of menus specifically focused on the tasks for the specific screen.
Shown above are the “top” level menus when the FDC-2010-K5C runtime first loads. A Help menu exist for every screen but is not shown in the menu items above.
Setup Menu: The setup menu provides access to system and controller setup options. These options include decimal point selection, enable Web Page Server, Fan setup, Temperature Alarm Setpoints, Control Tuning, schedule recovery options when power is lost / recovered, Output Monitor, as well as offline settings for degree C/F, Setpoint Limits, Input Offsets, Force System Outputs and date/time.
This page describes Web Page Server - click here for more detail on other items described in the Setup Menu Kiln System User Settings.htm.
The remaining Menu items, View/Main View, Schedule, Setup, Log & Security are described in their own sections.
Setup Menu System - Web Server Selection
If the FDC-2010-K5C is plugged into an Ethernet connection (FDC-2010-K5C ships configured for “DHCP”), the IP address of the unit will be displayed. DHCP means “Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol”. This is a term used when a device (FDC-2010-K5C) is hooked to an Ethernet connection and the main system (router) automatically assigns the IP address when the device (FDC-2010-K5C) is powered up. The “Web Server Enabled” checkbox turns on or off the FDC-2010-K5C unit from serving web pages that are accessible via a local Intranet or World Wide Web (wired or wireless). The main setup screen also allows the user to select the decimal position for reading/writing dry bulb and wet bulb values.
Connect to the FDC-2010-K5C using Microsoft’s Internet Explorer
After the FDC-2010-K5C is connected to an Ethernet connection and the IP address is assigned by the system, write down the IP address shown on the above screen (use actual address show on FDC-2010-K5C display). Start Internet Explorer from any PC on the local network.
In the “Address” toolbar of Internet Explorer type: http://198.122.6.101/Orion.html (use actual IP address shown on your FDC-2010-K5C screen). The following page will be displayed and updated every 30 seconds automatically with new data from the FDC-2010-K5C system. All kiln data is provided for “view only” access.
