A CRC alarm message is visualized both in case of failed EEPROM memory writing and of using a
software version without the CRC control procedure.
Pressing the visualized button, you can load in EEPROM default values: if you don’t execute this
procedure, calibration functions are inhibited.
You have now to execute calibration procedure (see inverter manual).
A message signals also the presence of not actual software loaded on inverter panel.
In such a case you can access only basic EYEPLUS functions: some menus, for compatibility rea-
sons, will be inhibited.
12
3.2 SUBMENUS
Print function is accessible from many of listed submenus: you can send active front panel
image to printer or save it on file; in that case destination directory is <EYEPLUS
PATH>\EYEPLUS\images.
Notice if more than one window is in use, only the one relative to the inner submenu is active
and all others work in background.
If you select a non active window, you can’t communicate\ interact with inverter panel.
In such a case mouse cursor assumes the shape of an hour-glass if a non active window
is selected.

figuration, you have to use complete Eeprom reset; to maintain already calibrated values
you can use partial EEPROM reset procedure.
Pay attention: using complete reset procedure you loose

already calibrated values.
Both procedures, in any case, don’t mod-

ify timers value and alarm history.

3.7 FLASH PROGRAMMING
TWIN MOTOR APPLICATION
SME company has developed an utility whose purpose is to automatically install newer source
files to correct destination path.
That executable program is named Source _ SOFTWARE DATE_ PANEL NAME.exe, so user know
exactly which software version he will load on panel flash memory,
Running that utility, C:\SOURCE_FILE directory will be created (if it doesn’t exist) and
new_software.TRZ0 and new_software.PMP0 files will be copied in it, while old_software.TRZ0
and old_software.PMP0 source files are moved to C:\SOURCE_FILE_OLD directory (automatically
created)
With new source files, user can upgrade main controller software, using Flash menu (Fig. 44).
1. Disable all commands
2. Select FLASH item from menu-bar and give confirmation to start programming phase.
3. In case of troubles with source files present in C:\SOURCE_FILE (missing files, wrong ver-
sion,...) there will be an error message and flash memory will not be programmed .
4. After a synchronization phase, flash programming will start; a bar gives the percent indica-
tion of already programmed memory.
5. In case of problems with serial communication, there will be an error message and flash pro-
gramming phase will be stopped.
6. After traction micro successful programming, begins pump micro programming phase (step 7
and 8)
7. A message will signal the end of programming phase, and its result; give confirmation to
exit the menu.
50
Fig. 44: Flash programming phase
Notice: Both in case of single and twin motor systems, if programming phase fails after synchroni-
zation, panel has to be programmed with correct software before being used; see trou-
bleshooting section in case of any error.
51
SINGLE MOTOR APPLICATION
SME company has developed an utility whose purpose is to automatically install newer source
files to correct destination path.
That executable program is named SOFTWARE DATE_ LIFT TRUCK MODEL.exe, so user know
exactly which software version he will load on panel flash memory,
Running that utility, C:\SOURCE_ONE_FILE directory will be created (if it doesn’t exist) and
new_software.ONE0 file will be copied in it, while old_software.ONE0 source file is moved to
C:\SOURCE_ONE_FILE_OLD directory (automatically created).
With new source files, user can upgrade main controller software, using Flash menu (Fig. 45).
1. Disable all commands
2. Select FLASH item from menu-bar and give confirmation to start programming phase.
3. In case of troubles with source file present in C:\SOURCE_ONE_FILE (missing files, wrong
version,...) there will be an error message and flash memory will not be programmed .
4. After a synchronization phase, flash programming will start; a bar gives the percent indica-
tion of already programmed memory.
5. In case of problems with serial communication, there will be an error message and flash pro-
gramming phase will be stopped.
6. A message will signal the end of programming phase, and its result; give confirmation to
exit the menu.

4.3 SERIAL COMMUNICATION

If application doesn’t work and message “not connected” appears:
- Verify system ground connections
- Verify if inverter panel works correctly
- Control serial connection cable: you must use a shielded one
- Verify if serial port works correctly
- Use Setup menu to verify serial port configuration
- Verify no other applicationsare using serial port
54
4.4 FLASH PROGRAMMATION
If panel programming phase fails, when you try to load source files:
- Verify if c:\source_file or c:\source_one_file directory exists
- Verify if that directory contains the correct source files
- Be sure that source files are the ones provided by S.M.E.
If you program memory successfully, but inverter doesn’t work correctly:
- Be sure that source files are the ones provided by S.M.E
In case of transmission error:
- Verify system ground connections
- Control serial connection cable: you must use a shielded one
- Verify if serial port works correctly
- Verify if there are any active commands
4.5 OTHER PROBLEMS

Application works slowly or doesn’t work properly :
Text and ”objects” on main panel are not centred:
- Don’t modify window size
Monitor doesn’t display correctly text and ”objects”
- Verify if monitor refresh frequency is at least 75Hz
