10. Programming Possibilities
Programming the Heinzmann Digital Governor can be performed according to the
possibilities described below:
10.1. Programming by the Manufacturer
During final inspection by the manufacturer, the functionability of the governor is checked
by means of a test program. If the operational data for the governor are available, the test
program is executed using those data. On the engine, only the dynamic values and, if
necessary, the actuator position limits and sensors have to be adjusted.
10.2. Programming with the Hand- Held Programmer 2
The entire programming can be performed using the Hand-Held Programmer 2. This handy
device may be conveniently used for development and for serial adjustment as well as for
service purposes.
10.3. Programming by PC
Programming can also be performed using the PC. In comparison with the hand-held
programmer, this method offers advantages with respect to the possibilities of having
characteristic curves readily displayed on the screen and easily varied; the same holds for
the time diagrams when putting the governor into operation on the engine. Furthermore,
the PC offers a better overview, as the PC program presents a menu structure and is able to
continuously display several parameters at a time.
The PC program also permits to save and load governor data to and from diskettes.
10.4. Programming with User Masks
Principally, programming may be performed with the help of user masks that have been
provided by Heinzmann or may conveniently be created by the user himself. Within a user
mask, only those parameters are accessible that are actually needed.
