SAFETY RULES.
Though intended for use during normal operation of the governor to which it
is connected, this software must only be used when all the required safety
conditions have been satisfied. All.precautions must be implemented so as to
avoid interfering with the system onto which connection has been made,
following write operations in the governor’s non-volatile memory, or after a
keying error or any other form of error.
- You should stop running the software when you have no further
intervention to perform on the governor. .
- Keep a written trace of the parameter sets used for your governors in
a safe place.
The RS 232/RS 485 serial link adapter has been specially designed to operate
only with NEYRPIC Governors. This adapter should not be used for any
other purpose with any other equipment device.
- Follow the user instructions for PC-compatible computers.
You are advised to make a backup copy of the floppy disk supplied. The
original floppy disk and the backup copy must be kept in a safe place, in a dry
and dust-free atmosphere.
Should program operation become blocked for some reason, you may recover
control of the PC computer by simultaneously pressing the keys ALT, Ctrl,
Del on the keyboard, or by carrying out a hardware reset.

STATUS
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
STATUS provides access via a serial link to the main operating parameters
of series 1000 Governors, either NEYRPIC(R)1000 position Governors,
NEYRPIC(R)1000 speed Governors for hydraulic turbines, or
NEYRPIC(R)1000D Governors for thermal machines.
This software enables extremely fine adjustment of performance to be
obtained for the series 1000 Governor.
On-line operation sets up a real-time communication with the governor. The
operator may then modify parameters, display and/or record functional
dimensions.
Off-line operation enables preparation of a parameter set, or consultation of
records and paper print-out. In the latter case, you should connect a printer to
the computer’s parallel port.
Connection to the module via the serial link is not then required.
This software includes in its basic functions a digital oscilloscope,
facilitating analysis of the governor’s performance. The frequency of data
acquisition is compatible with the frequency of digital calculation to be
carried out by the governor.
The set of acquired data, and the set of programmed adjustments, must be
safe-copied onto a magnetic support. The data base thereby created may be
consulted at any time using the same software.

When the entered value seems to you to be correct, type carriage return to
communicate the modification to the governor.
The governor automatically integrates a test and check procedure during
modification of a control parameter on its non-volatile memory.
Thus STATUS displays the modification report on the control screen, on the
right of the editing window.
Various diagnoses may be displayed:
- Parameter modified: This diagnosis informs you of the success of
your request.
- EEPROM Fault: This report is serious. It warns you of premature
ageing of non-volatile memories. The governor’s non-volatile mem-
ory is intended to support approximately twenty thousand write
operations per parameter.
- Parameter too large or Parameter too small: You have pro-
grammed a parameter value that is off centre. In this case the gover-
nor’s check device sets the parameter value to its internal electrical
stop point.
- Modification under way: on some governors (DIGIPID 02), the
copied diagnosis may be deferred for a few seconds, according to
local priorities.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
This mode provides a more synthetic means of dialogue with the governor.
The screen is divided into several windows.
The two windows at the top of the screen display two of the governor’s test
points, previously selected by pressing the Channel selection key on the
previous menu.
The name of each of the chosen points is shown on each of the control
windows. To the right, the real measured value of the variable is given. Each
of the control variables is surrounded by two arrows representing the change
tendency indicators. When a dimension increases in one direction, the
associated arrow lights up, then goes out when the change is no longer
significant.
The graduated scale represented at the centre of the window shows the
graphic representation of the test point.
Reading of the luminous scale is identical to reading of variables represented
in Scope mode, the reminder of the quantification step and variable offset are
shown at the bottom of the window.
The following line shows the computer’s real-time clock. Refer to your
computer reference guide in order to reset the clock if required.
You thus have a chronometer at your disposal. Check for example the rise
time for the speed/load settings programmed on the governor
The following sub-screen displays system faults that may be listed by the
governor. The date indicated for the fault is the date of occurence of failure.
Finally, the last window indicates in fully-worded language the changes in
governing conditions.

Pressing F3 deletes the list of faults memorised in the machine. We
recommend execution of this function after saving to be sure that the lists
kept on paper do not contain the same information several times. However, if
the list is not deleted, the oldest faults will be eliminated by the most recent
faults because of the limited capacity of the memorised fault list (100 - 150
faults depending on the product).

The definition domain of the end values selected must comply with the
variation domain indicated in the technical notice for each product. When the
three data entry operations have been carried out, the program automatically
validates a transition to real-time plotting mode. You may always cancel the
current operation using the F10 key.
The programmed signal is applied according to the status of the governor’s
grafcet. It may be oriented as a load setpoint, as a speed setpoint, as a
servomotor position setpoint, etc. The signal application mode is generally
connected to the governor’s characteristics.
The fact that the governor should take the signal into account may depend on
local conditions. When these conditions do not apply, the signal is not
applied.

The library is made up of all the files with the suffix .CSY that are present on
the delivered disk. A file of type .CSY supervises the possible operations of
the governor.
The laws and surface cams are manipulated within two object classes.The
elementary object is a law. Each programmed law is saved on a file with
suffix .IP . A law is characterised by the set of doublets (Xi,Yi) which define
it, by a customizing comment, by the value of its curve attribute (spline or
linear).
A surface cam is a collection of laws. Any cam is saved on a file of type
.CAM, with data chaining towards its component set.
A linearisation law is an object of type .CAM, which only has one single law.
A surface cam can contain a maximum of ten laws.

to your technical specifications. The induced curve is plotted from the third
validated point on the table: this is also the minimum number of points that
will enable you to perform the save operations of the law.
It is not necessary to program the abcissa according to the increasing order of
Xi values. The working sheet is sorted and cleared for each new pair of
points. Likewise data entry may be interrupted before the entire ten pairs
have been entered, once the rate of the process has been acquired.
✍ The system automatically superposes onto the definition curve a limiting
curve of ordinate Y0 (respectively Yn) when a terminal point is edited
beyond (respectively within) the standardisation value corresponding to
the sensor. No parameters are communicated to the governor during this
study phase. It is therefore not necessary to produce the law on the Plant.

ACCES COMPOSANTS
All the laws programmed for a surface cam may be accessed using the F1
key on the reception menu. This key is not operational for a simple
linearisation law. The latter becomes directly available for display check or
modification as soon as the working environment has been determined.
Five types of possible action on a cam are available:
- Changing components
- Plotting the set of cam components
- Checking the pre-setting of a law to a particular Z value
- Plotting a network of interpolated curves
- Deleting a cam component
Changing a component * F5 F1
Use the keys “cursor up”, “cursor down” to select the access file. For each
movement the customisation comment of the law appears on the last line of
the control screen. Validate your choice by a carriage return. The law is

Intermediate law * F5 F1 F2
STATUS authorises the display of an interpolated law on the cam. Enter the
value of the Z component for which you wish a display to be made. The
network of memorised laws becomes active on the graphic screen, the
interpolated law is superposed on the plotting. You may use the save key to
record doublets (Xi,Yi) of the interpolated law which then becomes an
integral part of the definition laws.
The digital governors have the capability of interpolating a law concerning a
surface cam according to the Z-component measured on the input sensor.
This action thereby anticipates the the governor’s response to excitation
measured in real time. If the interpolated law does not correspond to the rate
required by the process, you should add a law on the definition cam.
Otherwise you may economize the data entry and maintenance of a law.
Beamlets * F5 F1 F3
Lines of curved laws
Likewise you can plot a network of interpolated laws between the definition
curves on the control screen, in order to better understand the rate of the
process created. Key in the number of curves required per step. Observe the
network of laws thereby created.

USER MANUAL
PROGRAMMING THE GOVERNOR
Transfer between the calculator and the governor is performed by using the
keys F5 to F7 in the reception menu.
Transfer * F5 F5
The F5 key enables transfer of a a cam or a linearisation law towards the
governor. All the information concerning the implantation adresses of laws
is memorised on the .CAM file. Only transfers from the disk are authorized.
First select the operating disk unit, then determine the file to be transferred
by using the keys “cursor up”, “cursor down”,. Validate your selection. A
request for confirmation is proposed before transfer. In the affirmative the
cam is transferred to the governor according to the increasing order of the Zi
coordinates. The transfer of a cam or of a law is always followed by a re-read
operation of the cam programmed on the governor.

USING A MOUSE
USING A MOUSE
Conditions of use
Management of a mouse improves the program’s user-friendliness.
To obtain this advantage you should procure a mouse from an ordinary
supplier, with the software environment required for implementation. The
mouse will be of Microsoft type, and you should follow the installation
instructions provided by the constructor.
Move the mouse. The installation is correct if you observe a shift of the
graphic cursor on the control screen.
In this case, also observe the modification of cursor coordinate display.
Possible adjustments
Using the mouse, you can of course have rapid access to the values of the
linearisation function located outside its definition points.
Point the graphic cursor directly on the representative curve, and note the
interpolated calculated values.
If the plotting seems to you to be doubtful on a part of the curve, either
because of marked rupture of slope, or by large grouping of law definition
points, a magnification of the graphic zone considered is possible.
By moving the mouse, set the graphic cursor near the area to be magnified,
then press on the left button of the mouse.
The graphic cursor will go out, and a rectangle will appear on the tracer.
While maintaining the left button in the pressed position, move the mouse.
The rectangle will change size, according to the movement amplitude.
Surround the section of the curve to be magnified, then release the left button
of the mouse.
STATUS causes the picture to be magnified, proportionally to the dimension
of the rectangle that you had set.
The coordinate system is also recalculated by the program. Repeat the
operation to observe greater detail, and make corrective action if necessary
on the points definition table.
Simply pressing on the right-hand mouse button will bring back the original

Saving Procedure
The contents of EEPROM memories are recorded in a file with a suffix.E2P,
hich conforms to the rule for the automatic construction of ile names. ith
confirmation from the operator, it is possible to generate a file with a suffix.
MAP, which can be printed in DOS using the PRINT control.
The list obtained is usually associated to the filed documents of the governor.
A file of E2P type represents a bit to bit copy of memories, without
distinguishing the intrinsic signification of bytes.
When recording additional signature checks are stored in the file to prevent
the source from being damaged when it is restored.
Two display methods are represented during the procedure’s progress :
- Without creating a .MAP file, only the percentage of processing car-
ried out is displayed,
- Otherwise, the video unit displays the content of memories. The
automatic scrolling is deleted by pressing the espace key. If this key
is pressed a second time, the following page is displayed (...etc). If
any other key is pressed the automatic scrolling is rebooted.
every 24 hours).
This feature is created in order to leave the signature of memories re-
enterable during the life-cycle of the governor.
On the last page of the document, the overall checksum of the memory’s
bytes is given : this is the modulo 32 bits sum of all the non inscribed data of
EEPROM components.

Characteristics required
The computer and the governor must both be equipped with a modem, in
order to allow remote connection.
The modems used must accept the HAYES command set.The transmission
characteristics of the character are then 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, without parity,
to be able to handle the general case of 10-bit modems. The possible
transmission rates may be programmed at:
• 1200 bauds,
• 2400 bauds,
• or 4800 bauds.
The governor must, however, be pre-configured by the NEYRPIC
commissioning terminal to accept this operating mode.
The modem will be configured to use the Hayes AT command set, and should
supply a response to commands recieved. On the other hand the echo modes
of commands and data echos will be disabled.

Calling * F6 F1
Hooking up * F6 F2
Set the graphic cursor on a call reference on the table, by using the keys
“cursor up”, “cursor down”. Then make the call by pressing the F1 key and
allowing communication to be set up. The local modem response is
displayed at the bottom of the screen when the line has been acquired or if
connection cannot be made.
Example : “Connected at 2400 bauds”, “Network incident”.
In the event of failure, the operator may start a new call by pressing directly
on the F1 key. Otherwise communication is established and the set of
functionalities of the STATUS software is available.
Return time * F6 F3
Return time corresponds to the time necessary for a modem to move from
reception to transmission and vice versa. Some satellite communication calls
require a time of waiting between the message transmitted by one station and
the one transmitted by its counterpart, when the link is particularly poor or
when the network requires this time. The F3 key on the menu enables this
waiting time to be adjusted accurately. Enter the time out value in seconds
(example 0.1 seconds). This operation must only be carried out if call
connection has been established.

You should however consult the modem’s technical manual to obtain more
suitable programming.
Using your preferred editor you may create a MODEM.SYS file containing a
set of HAYES commands. These commands will be transmitted to the
modem during any attempt to connect. It is not necessary to place the
command AT in front of each command line, since this will be transmitted
directly by the STATUS software. Consult the modem’s programming
manual to make an operational MODEM.SYS file.
