1. Introduction VacMon is a software system for monitoring the factory s vacuum system Whereas the vacuum control system handles itself automatically VacMon offers the ability to see online a synoptical view of all conveyors and pumps This manual describes VacMon software version 2 01 1 1 Standard Features e View status and change set points of all conveyors and pumps e View the vacuum line s pump connections e View the vacuum gauges of the vacuum lines e The software is based on a client server foundation which allows all users of a local area network to view and operate the system e Modular system allows the addition of another vacuum component by adding it to the definition files 2 Main screen Viewing vacuum system s components status The status of the vacuum system s components is shown on one screen which is also the main screen of the software This screen is immediately shown upon activation of the software 2 1 Conveyor Icon Each conveyer has a designated icon representing its working state name and conveying time 2 1 1 Status The conveyor state causes it s icon to change as follows e White the conveyer is not active it is switched off e Grey the conveyer is in rest mode e Yellow the conveyer is in demand mode e Green the conveyer is in receiving mode e Red the conveyer is malfunctioned e Red and Green the conveyer is malfunctioned but tries to receive material 2 12. 2 Name As in Windows the conveyer name is under it s icon gt y 2 1 3 Duration On the right hand side of the icon a duration time is shown in seconds as follows e Active conveying time Shows the active conveying time gradually increasing while the conveyer is in a receiving mode green e Last conveying duration Shows the duration time of the last conveying session 2 1 4 Proportional On some cases the conveyer can receive regrind material proportionally In that case the regrind proportion percentage is shown beneath the duration time 2 2 Lines Vacuum lines state is marked with colors e Grey the line is in rest mode e Blue the line is in receiving mode and is connected to the vacuum pump which is activated and connected to the line Vacuum gauges where installed show the current vacuum depth of each line 2 3 Pump icon Each pump has a designated icon it s name is beneath it and the usage percentage is on it s right hand side The pump state causes it s icon to change as follow e White the pump is not active it is switched off e Grey the pump is in rest mode e Green the pump is in working e Red the pump is malfunctioned Main screen sample Yacmon client l x 202 41 202 42 202 A3 202 D1 202 D2 Pompa 2 202 B1 202 B2 202 B3 202 C1 202 C2 Pompa 3 201 A1 201 42 201 A3 201 B1 201 B2 201 B3 201 C1 201 C2 201 C3 3 SuperUser
