8315 L&J Tankway Software Description TankGate Interface
44 Installation and Operations Manual
4.11.2 Application
The GS2000 point provides an interface to GSI Model 2000 Tank Gauge Transmitters.
Tank gauges are connected directly to a TankGate. At startup, a WVSCAN point is
automatically created to manage the scanning task. The ID must match the unit address
of the GSI Model 2000.
The SpeedMode must match the configuration of the transmitter. The DataMode must
match the engineering units of the gauge. Conversion from Metric to English (or vice-
versa) can be performed be setting the LevelConvert and the TempConvert parameters
in the WVSCAN point associated with the GS2000 point.
The Level can be offset by entering a value for the LevelOffset parameter. The
LevelOffset is added to the Level after any conversion have be performed. Likewise, the
TempOffset may be used to offset the Temp value.
The FastScanMode parameter places the point in the Fast Scan list. Fast Scan points are
scanned more frequently than other points. The Interleave, FastScanMax, and
FastScanTime parameters of the WVSCAN point determine how fast scanning is
performed
