CHAPTER 13: CSCAPE CONFIGURATION
13.1 Overview
RX-371 hardware is programmed with a Windows-based PC application called Cscape (HE500OSW232).
Please see the on-line help provided with Cscape for additional details.
13.2 Cscape Status Bar
When the RX-371 is connected to a PC using Cscape software a Status Bar appears at the bottom of the
screen. The Cscape Status Bar can be used to determine if communications have been established
between the RX-371 and the Cscape program. Components of the Cscape Status Bar are explained as
below.
Ready User: NONE HERX371-CsCAN (Model=) Equal Local :1 Target :2(R) [no forces] MOD
Equal Indicator – indicates whether the current program in Cscape is equal to the program
stored in the Target Controller.
• If Equal, the program in Cscape is the same as the program stored in the Target Controller.
• If Not Equal, the program in Cscape is not
the same as the program stored in the Target
Controller.
• If Unknown, there may have been a change since the last time the program in Cscape was
compared to the Target Controller.
Communications Status - indicates the current status of the
“pass through” Connector.
• Local: xx – indicates the Network ID of the RX to which the
Cscape program is physically connected through its serial
port. It can serve as a pass through device to other nodes
on the network.
• Target: yy(R) – indicates the Network ID of the device with
which the Cscape program is exchanging data.
Note: The Local unit and Target unit can be the
same unit or they can be separate units.
The following are status indicators:
(R) – Running
(D) - Do I/O
(I) – Idle
(?) – Cscape is not communicating with the remote unit.
[no forces] – indicates no I/O has been forced.
Message Line -
The contents of
these messages
are context
sensitive. The
Message line can
be empty.
Current User -
indicates who is logged
(for security purposes).
Controller Model - (Model Confirmation)
• Controller Model indicates the controller model for
which the program in Cscape is configured.
• (Model Confirmation) provides the following
indications:
• (Model=) - The actual Target Controller matches the
configured Controller Model and Network.
• (Model Not=) – The actual Target Controller does not
match the configured Controller Model and Network.
• (Model?) – there may have been a change since the
last time the Target Controller was compared to the
configured Controller Model and Network.
File Modified Indicator - indicates that the file in
the selected window has been modified but has
not been saved.
