ROCLINK 800 Interface Overview — Navigating the Configuration Environment
Key Takeaway
How to navigate ROCLINK 800 — device tree, configuration tabs, FST editor, meter runs, archive viewer, live data monitor, and Compare function.
Quick Answer
ROCLINK 800 is organized around a device tree where each node represents a configurable area — I/O, meter runs, FST programs, communications, archives, and security. Always perform Read All before making changes to avoid overwriting settings you did not intend to change.
What Does the Device Tree Contain?
- ROC Configuration — General settings, clock, passwords
- I/O Points — Analog/digital/pulse inputs and outputs
- Meter Runs — AGA-3 and AGA-7 flow calculations
- PID Controllers — Closed-loop control
- Soft Points — Calculated and user-defined values
- FST — Function Sequence Table programs
- Communications — ROC protocol, Modbus, DNP3 ports
- Archives — Hourly, daily, event configuration
How Do You Read and Write Configuration?
Read All downloads current device config to ROCLINK. Write All uploads ROCLINK config to device. Compare identifies differences between offline and device configuration. For comparison, see PCCU32 interface for ABB Totalflow.
