Safety for you and the equipment
Your safety
Warning – High voltage hazard:
Some procedures in this manual involve working inside a live control
panel. Do NOT attempt them unless you have appropriate knowledge
and experience. Proceed only with appropriate safety precautions.
Equipment safety
Electrostatic
discharge (ESD)
cautions
Electrostatic hazard:
Many electronic components in the control system can be damaged or
destroyed by electrostatic discharges (ESD) that you cannot even feel.
You can discharge 5000 volts without feeling it but this voltage is
strong enough to destroy many electronic components of the system.
If you handle system components, you MUST wear a grounded
wrist strap. The best ground is to the triac heat sink.
In addition:
! Do not let anyone that is not wearing a grounded wrist strap work
on the control panel.
! Do not touch any parts or conductors on the board even when you
are wearing a grounded wrist strap.
! Do not lay paper on static-sensitive parts.
! Ship components to Conviron in anti-static bags.
! Make sure everyone that may work on the control panel is aware
of these procedures.
Failure to follow proper ESD precautions may void the warranty!
Battery expiry /
Memory-loss
cautions
Memory-loss hazard:
A continuous supply of electricity to the controller is essential to
preserve its memory. If its memory is lost, the controller cannot
operate and will have to be replaced.
An external battery provides backup for the regular supply of electricity
for brief periods when the regular supply is not available.
The battery must be replaced (see Chapter 7: Maintenance and
Troubleshooting) at intervals NOT exceeding 5 years.
To promote battery life:
• Keep the controller disconnect switch ON (use only the start/stop
switch to turn power for the chamber on and off).
• Keep ambient temperatures within the range of human comfort.
Operation warning:
Always wait at least three (3) minutes after completing any procedure
before turning off the controller.
Wait at least 10 seconds before turning the controller on again.

Chapter 1: The CMP4030
1-4 CMP4030 User Guide
November 2002
Features of the CMP4030
The CMP4030 Local Control System (LCS) is used to control the plant
growth chamber. The ‘brain’ of the LCS is the Version 6.0 software.
The Touch Screen
The system uses a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel with an
integrated touch screen as the user interface.
The touch screen provides the facility to:
• program controls
• assist qualified personnel to service the chamber
• control temperature
• control lighting
• control relative humidity
The screen measures 210mm x 158mm (8.3" x 6.2").
Information on the touch screen is easy to read because the screen is
backlit.
Most icons are “touchable” and initiate a controller action when they are
touched. In this manual, “touchable” icons are called buttons.
When a button is touched, it will flash and the controller will beep.
Features of the CMP4030

Important:
The screen has a backlight saver. After five minutes of inactivity, the
screen goes blank. Touch the screen to reactivate the display.
Do not touch the screen with sharp or pointed objects. Use your
fingertip or the eraser end of a pencil.
On-line help To access on-line help, touch the Help button, then the field or button
for which help is required.
Saving Programs to Disk
Programs can be saved on disk and copied for use with other
chambers. The chamber must be equipped with a disk drive installed to
use this feature.
Caution! If a program is to be used on another chamber, the chambers
must have the same configuration.
• they must have the same number and type of program zones in
the program table
• the program zones must be in the same order
Exporting Logged Data
Data can be exported to other software such as spreadsheets or word
processors. The data files are easily imported into programs such as
Excel.
Expandability
The CMP4030 is a flexible control system and adding capacity is a
simple process. If there is a need to control additional devices or
equipment, hardware and software upgrades are available. Contact
Conviron Customer Care.
Security
Users can be assigned User ID’s and passwords to ensure that only
authorized staff make program changes.
