8300 8315 L&J Tankway Software Description
4.2 TankGate Software Blocks
The user can configure pre-defined subprograms known as Software Blocks. These
software blocks program the TankGate to perform various tasks, such as scaling an
analog input value, or scanning level, temperature and status information from a tank
gauge. Various software blocks are available depending on the communication module.
Each Software Block contains all the logic, constants and data to perform a particular
function. Every system function of the TankGate is accessible via a Software Block. The
user only has to add Software Blocks using ViewRTU and then configure a few
parameters in order to perform a desired function.
The purpose of this section is to explain the parameters of each software Block. This
section does not explain the procedures used to configure the Software Blocks. Refer to
the following ‘Using ViewRTU’ chapter for Software Block configuration procedures.
