I am using Display /P#1 to populate a screen with information in a parameter file. i have tried concatenating shorter parameter files together w/ Display /P#1,#2,#3 or /P#1/P#2/P#3, but those don't test out as legitimate syntax. Is there a way?

Akhilesh, those KB items do not address the question. The abort command will perform the actions they describe, but that doesn't accomplish what we need. what we want to know is if a command exists to remove a previous popup window so that the operator is not working with one they did not select. ...

Select a popup, get a display. Select another popup, close previous popup display, get new display. Touch action Abort command does not handle this, can only close the current display, or everything. Resort to startup macro on each popup created that closes all other popups? Seems like brute force. ...

Thank you for the reply, Lingard. I remember using parameter files in RSView32, but more recently with SE, I did not have to resort to them. The problem turns out to be my confusion with the listing from SE Help. I was trying to employ /U. Swapping with /T eliminated the problem. Display pu /T ...

A simplistic solution such as an SD, or say a CompactFlash Card in a PV+, will encounter a variety of hurdles, making the solution ultimately unworkable. In our case, the PV+ application required re-validation for the modification, which killed the idea. A more elaborate solution employing another ...

RE: Pump Control Strategy with 5 VFDs

As memory serves, we performed manual calibrations on each metering pump to arrive at those settings MaxFeedRateSP. There were clear dosing tubes of a known volume, and a timer was used to measure the pump at one or more speeds using the AOUTs. It was a time consuming procedure, further hampered by the ...

Splash, Attached is a program that works on multi-pump installations at a major WWTP in North Texas to do what you are nominally asking about. One operates motor starting contactors for pump demand and rotation, and the others are metering pumps on DC drives or on VFDs, with splits across ...

A program that works at a waste water plant is attached. 4 sand pumps are on contactors, not vfds. 3 metering pumps feed each of two lines, and 4 swaps as an extra. Adding 5th to the order shouldn't too difficult, but this won't match any of your addressing..
