Hi everybody.
I´m asking for your help in solving a problem with our MARK V simplex speedtronic turbine. I´m trying to add an analog input signal corresponding to the diesel tank level of the unit (The transmitter is externally powered, it does´nt need power from the card).
I followed the instructions that appear in the GEH6195 manual, and from a flowchart that I found I don't remember where, but I still have problems.
The steps I followed were the following:
- I looked in the SCLEDATA.DATA file to give the appropriate scaling to the signal.
- I wrote the new signal in IO.ASG like this: (I also wrote it to LONGNAME.DAT and TC2KREPT.TXT)
C_C_MAI05 DTKLT PCT ;C -CTBA-049 Diesel tank level transmitter.
- I modified the IO configurator in Milliamp Input Definitions to use signal 5 and set the scaling of the signal (this signal will be only for monitoring, it is not required in the sequence).
- I perform a mk5make command and then an eeprom down user command to core C, all OK.
- I turn off core C with the switch on PD.
I don't know if the steps up to here are correct, but when the control card is turned on again, after status A5 on its display it shows "IO CFG FAILED". The card continues and reaches its normal status A7.
When checking the signal after resetting the station, it is not reflected in the demand display (nor in logic forcing).
If I'm missing information, please don't hesitate to ask.
Many thanks in advance.
