The FDS tab of the <a href="MAINApplication_Preferences.htm">Application
|
||
|
|
Preferences</a> is laid out as shown below:</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><img src="AP_FDS.jpg" alt="Image:AP_FDS.jpg" title="Image:AP_FDS.jpg" style="border-width: 2px; border-style: solid;
|
||
|
|
margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;
|
||
|
|
margin-right: 0px;" width="380" height="241" border="2"></p>
|
||
|
|
<p> <br>
|
||
|
|
These settings relate to the use of an FDS Omnidrive or
|
||
|
|
MiniDrive loudspeaker processor in the design. <a href="MAINIntroduction.htm">Architect</a>
|
||
|
|
can communicate on several levels with these devices.
|
||
|
|
If the control panels for these devices are used online
|
||
|
|
then real time control of the FDS devices is possible.
|
||
|
|
To accomplish this, Architect makes a connection with
|
||
|
|
the device and periodically refreshes information in both
|
||
|
|
directions to keep the device and the software synchronised.
|
||
|
|
Programs can be sent and received from the devices.</p>

<h2>Disable synchronisation from the device</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>This facility stops the system from dumping program
|
||
|
|
information to, or from, the FDS processors when going
|
||
|
|
online to the network. If these devices are included in
|
||
|
|
a design and need to either send new parameters (as a
|
||
|
|
program), or receive them, then the choice is given at
|
||
|
|
the time of going online. If this functionality is not
|
||
|
|
required, or it is just slowing down a further design
|
||
|
|
process then disable synchronisation.</p>

|
<h2>Disable FDS polling when Online</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>Enables disengagement of the application and FDS processors'
|
||
|
|
feedback loop. If using the FDS front panel to set up,
|
||
|
|
or change settings on these devices, then the polling
|
||
|
|
needs to be on to read in the settings from the FDS. However,
|
||
|
|
this is likely to interrupt the meter display so, if the
|
||
|
|
FDS devices are just being monitored (and not programmed)
|
||
|
|
then enabling this option should prevent this happening.</p>

|
||
|
|
<h2>Slow FDS meters</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>Changes the software meter response time. If responsiveness
|
||
|
|
of the system (e.g. pressing buttons on panels) seems
|
||
|
|
affected then enable this option.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> <br>
|
||
|
|
An FDS display object can represent what is being shown
|
||
|
|
on the front panel display of remote FDS processors. The
|
||
|
|
information can be updated over a period of seconds (from
|
||
|
|
20 to 120; default 30).</p>
