10... HYPERTRACK™ REAL-TIME DATA DISPLAY
USING THE OMP-MODL 10-3
CONSTRUCTING A HYPERTRACK NET
During a real-time tracking session, the OMP-MODL transmits values of the Probe
Point icons to the PC via the serial link. These values are then processed through a
HyperTrack Net running on the PC (in the HyperTrack window) and displayed.
HyperTrack Nets provide a means to perform additional processing of values from
Probe Point icons before they are displayed. HyperTrack Nets can also provide
storage of Probe Point icon values to a file on the PC while the real-time data is
being received.
The HyperTrack Net is constructed much the same way as a Program Net is
developed within HyperNet. The main difference is that a Program Net running in a
OMP-MODL receives its data from various hardware channels such as
thermocouples whereas the HyperTrack Net receives its data from the Probe Point
icons contained in the Program Net in an Enabled OMP-MODL. Figure 10... -4
shows a completed HyperTrack Net.
Determining OMP-MODL Program Net Probes Information
Before a HyperTrack Net can be developed, the Probe Point icons contained
within the associated OMP-MODL Program Net must be known. This
information can be gained by downloading the Program Net from a serially
connected OMP-MODL or by opening the Program Net from disk (assuming
it was saved after development).
Receiving Probe Point Icons from a serially
connected OMP-MODL):
1. Establish a serial connection with the OMP-MODL to be
used during the HyperTrack session. At this time, the
OMP-MODL has already been programmed with a
