3. Menu Legend
With the universal platform of the W600 controller sometimes allow for more flexibility than what was bargained for and sometime the simple task get lost. Let go over the basics. Icon Based Menu Systems. In the legend to the right, you can see the basics for their menu system. Keep these in mind as we go through this training session. When in doubt, start again or call and we can hep get you back on track. If something just does not feel right, or is not working the way you want, we can either help guide you through it or reset the controller back to factory settings. Software Upgrades are always free. This training is based on current software, making sure you are update will give us the best view of what’s going on and where to go.

4. Home Overview
Home Screen: The home screen is user definable (so yours may look different) and will show you up to 8 settings (4 revolving at a time) and top of screen is devoted to alarm(s) conditions. Lower left hand corner will pull up the Main Menu Screen which we will go over next, but pressing anyone of the displayed values, will take you directly to that part of the software. Example: On our display to the right, if you pressed the screen where it say CCond (S11) you would go directly to the Conductivity Sensor Input screen so you could maintain it or calibrate it. The same would go for the Temp (S12) and so on… Let’s go to the Main Menu by pressing the lower left menu symbol

5. Main Overview
Main Menu: The main menu screen will help navigate to what you need to do. There are six subcategories, inputs, outputs, alarms, configuration, hand/off/auto an graphs. Know where you stuff is, will help navigate directly to it. Lower left corner now displays a home button to go back to the home screen. Menu choices are:
Inputs Menu
Output Menu
Alarms Menu
Config Menu
HOA Menu
Graphs Menu
Refer to the manual for details or contact us for help. See FAQ section at the end of this presentation for guidance to common sections of the controller.

6. Inputs Overview
Inputs Menu: The inputs are any item the controller has going to it, such as:
Sensors Inputs (S_) : Conductivity, pH, ORP and Disinfection
Digital Inputs (D_) : Flow switches, Level Switches, Flow meters and Flow Sensors
Analog Inputs (AI_) : Little Dipper Sensors and Level and Flow Transmitters
Virtual Sensors (V_) : NEW Virtual sensors let you take any two similar inputs, and compare them with a calculation, then control on that value. Like cycles of concentration, or water usage based on incoming and out going water meters.
Refer to the manual for details or contact us for help. See FAQ section at the end of this presentation for guidance to common sections of the controller.

7. Output Overview
Output Menu: The are any control function headed out of the machine, such as:
Control Relays (R_) : Either powered, pulsing or dry control relays for valves, pumps, BMS systems or alarms
Analog Output (AO_) : 4-20 mA output for chart recorders, pumps, BMS systems or control valves.
Refer to the manual for details or contact us for help. See FAQ section at the end of this presentation for guidance to common sections of the controller.

8. Alarms Overview
Alarms Menu: Will detail out what current alarms are on the controller. Use the sensor, relay, etc. indicators to figure where to go to correct condition
Example: Flowswitch (D1) would be in the digital inputs menu, digital input #1. CCond (S11) would be in the sensor menu, sensor input #11. On/Off (R1) would be in the output menu, relay #1. If you need more help, please call.
Refer to the manual for details or contact us for help. See FAQ section at the end of this presentation for guidance to common sections of the controller.

9. Config Overview
Config Menu: This menu is to setup units of measure, times and date, controller name, export/import files, datalogs and board status. Menu items are:
Global Settings
Security Settings
Display Settings
File Utilities
Controller Details
Refer to the manual for details or contact us for help. See FAQ section at the end of this presentation for guidance to common sections of the controller.

10. HOA Overview
HOA Menu: Lets you turn on and off relays for maintenance, testing and priming and return them to auto when finished from one screen.
Refer to the manual for details or contact us for help. See FAQ section at the end of this presentation for guidance to common sections of the controller.

11. Graphs Overview
Graphs Menu: The graph menu will give a one sensor, one relay view of the controller for troubleshooting. This view is user defined and very helpful when trying to see what happed.
Refer to the manual for details or contact us for help. See FAQ section at the end of this presentation for guidance to common sections of the controller.

This overview should answer a few questions. The upper right is the MAIN menu. Dash lines lead from buttons and symbol legend defines icons. A larger PDF version is available on our website.

13. FAQ’s
Sensor Calibration: This will be in the inputs menu, pan to and press sensor to calibrate, press the crosshair symbol.
Change/Configure Blowdown: This will be in the output menu. Pan to and press the relay you want to use for blowdown, press maintenance button, make sure relay in the in proper mode by panning to bottom of listing (should be on/off set point), change set point and Deadband as needed.
Change/Configure Feed: This will be in the output menu. Pan to and press the relay you want to use for feed, press maintenance, and pan to the bottom of list to make sure relay is in the proper mode. Popular choices are feed & bleed, feed then bleed or flow timer.
Relay is programmed but does not come on: Make sure the relay is in the auto mode, if so, make sure it is not interlocked with something it should not be.
Controller still bleeds when no flow: Make sure interlock is set with Flowswitch.
I cannot calibrate the controller: Make sure proper sensor is chosen and when used, the temperature portion of that sensor is properly set up. For safety reasons the controller will only allow the controller to modify what it thinks it is (raw value) 1.5 times. After that the sensor should be replaced.
Which Calibration should I use: There are a few, and depending on the application you should use the most effective. Basic applications that are not regulated or inspected can use the one point process or one point buffer mostly. Two point buffer is best for more stringent application and should always be use on pH/ORP installation. This will provide a slope. Disinfection will have two types of calibration, buffer and a zero calc. Best to do both. When changing/replacing sensors please, start fresh and reset calibration values.
