Commissioning the system

Tip: It is recommended that the myDataconC3 is first placed into operation in the office before mounting the device permanently at the place of use. During this process, you should create a site for the later operation on the myDatanet server (see Creating the site) and determine a site configuration (see Site configuration). Take the opportunity to get to know the functions of the device in a stable environment. You can also use suitable test signals to simulate the sensors to establish the optimum configuration of the myDataconC3 prior to its actual first use. This reduces the amount of time required for on-site installation to a minimum.

 

The following work should be completed in the office before you go to the future location of the device:

  1. If necessary, create a customer on the myDatanet server (see "myDatanet Server Manual " 805002).
  2. Within the selected customer, create a site/application based on the "myDataconC3" application for operation on the myDatanet server (see Creating the site).
  3. Configure the created site/application according to your requirements (see Site configuration).
  4. Connect the antenna (see Connection of the mobile network antenna).
  5. Trigger a connection establishment so that the configuration of the site/application is transferred to the myDataconC3 . You can achieve this by establishing the power supply (see "Connecting the sensors, actuators and power supply" on page 46). If a device logic has already been loaded into the device, execute the operations provided in the device logic to trigger the establishment of a connection. You can achieve this by establishing the power supply (see Connection of the sensors, actuators and the supply). The status LED should then start flickering (see Status LED) to signalise the connection establishment.
    Tip: You can also skip this step, as a connection must be established during the installation on site, which transfers the configuration settings to the myDataconC3 at the same time.
  6. Then disconnect the cables of the supply voltage from the device preferably in a de-energised state. The colour of the status LED will then change from green to magenta in order to signalise that the supply has been switched to the internal rechargeable buffer battery. After that, wait until the device has shut down in a controlled manner. You can see it has when the status LED is switched off. Ensure that the myDataconC3 is completely deactivated. Should the status LED remain switched on for a longer time, you can press the reset butten (see Operating elements) to switch it off.
  7. Remove the antenna again.
    8. The following tasks are to be completed directly at the deployment site of the device:
  8. Then complete all steps described in chapter Connection of the sensors, actuators and the supply.
  9. Check whether the connection to the myDatanet server has worked correctly (see Testing communication with the device).
