General Description

The Model 5073TBX 50386 Toolbox Software is an MS Windows based program that allows the user to configure the 50386 RTU. Configurable parameters include general system, sensor sampling, transmission and logging, data download, control setup, and testing. The software runs under MS Windows on personal or notebook computers and communicates with a 50386 RTU through a serial (COM) port.

General system parameters include station ID, clock time, sleep and wakeup intervals, powerdown mode, communication protocol, path position (CTU, repeater, RTU), data logging storage, and serial port use. Sensor sampling parameters include sensor ID, sample and transmission intervals, max-min-averaging intervals, input ranges, input type, change-to-transmit/log, and calibration coefficients.

Data downloading can select individual or all sensors over a chosen time period, output in ASCII format for easy import. Control setup lets you set control parameters, limits, and states; control testing lets you set setpoints, analog controls, and toggle digital status controls.
