Introduction
This documentation describes the functions of the VISY-SoftView software application.
The VISY-SoftView software becomes used as firmware for the display module of the
FAFNIR products VISY-Command GUI and VISY-View Touch.
VISY-SoftView provides the capability to view current tank data, delivery data and the
various alarms signalled by the VISY-Command control unit. For instructions on how to
install and operate VISY-Command, see following manuals:
•
Technical Documentation VISY-Command, art. no. 207184
•
Technical Documentation VISY-View Touch, art. no. 350055
The display module can be used for viewing and evaluating tank data as an alternative to
a petrol station computer.
The display component is a TFT colour screen. All functions are accessible using the touch
screen user interface.
Alarms are signalled visually by the display module and also audibly by a buzzer. As an
option, a printer can be connected to the serial port.
The display module receives all its configuration data, alarms and product data from the
VISY-Command control unit, which means that no special settings or configurations are
needed for set-up.
The control unit must have been configured using the VISY-Setup configuration program
first, see:
•
Page 1/72
Technical Documentation VISY-Setup V4…, art. no. 207158
Introduction
1.1
Safety instructions
The VISY-SoftView software application is intended for use in petrol stations. The software provides the capability to evaluate filling levels and monitor tanks and their supply
pipes. The system must be used exclusively for this purpose. Please observe and follow all
product safety notes and operating instructions. The manufacturer accepts no liability for
any loss or damage arising from improper use.
VISY-Command GUI and VISY-View Touch, on which the VISY-SoftView software
application is installed, have been developed, manufactured and tested in accordance
with the latest good engineering practices and generally accepted safety standards.
Nevertheless, hazards may arise from their use.
The following safety precautions must be observed in order to reduce the risk of injury,
electric shocks, fire or damage to the equipment:
•
Do not change or modify the system or add any equipment without the prior
consent of the manufacturer.
•
Only use original parts. These comply with the technical requirements specified
by the manufacturer.
•
The installation, operation and maintenance of the VISY-Command GUI and
VISY-View Touch with VISY-SoftView software must be carried out by expert
personnel only.
•
Operators, installers and service technicians must observe all applicable safety
regulations. This also applies to any local safety and accident prevention regulations which are not stated in these operating instructions.
The following safety information must be observed:
The touchscreen must be operated only by finger or by means of a stylus
designed for this purpose. The use of pointed objects (e.g. screwdrivers,
pens) may cause damage to the touch screen.
Useful information:
Useful tips and information in this manual that should be observed are
written in italics and identified by this symbol.

Module description
The VISY-SoftView program consists of the following modules:
•
VISY-SoftView Starter
•
VISY-SoftView
Both program components are described in detail in the sections that follow.
3
VISY-SoftView Starter
The VISY-SoftView Starter module is launched automatically by the display module's
operating system and has two tasks.
•
Start phase
During the start phase, the user is informed that the VISY-SoftView main application is starting up. A progress bar shows how long until the process is complete.
The start phase lasts approximately 30 seconds.
Figure 1: VISY-SoftView Starter
As soon as the main VISY-SoftView application has fully loaded and the main
window is displayed, the starter application closes its display window and begins
to run as a background service.
•
Page 3/72
Background service
VISY-SoftView Starter runs as a control instance in the background and monitors
the VISY-SoftView main module.

VISY-SoftView
The VISY-SoftView module is the actual viewing and reporting application for visualising
data from up to 16 tanks. The graphic below shows a typical example of the main
window showing information from 6 tanks.

Figure 2: Main window of VISY-SoftView, standard mode
All VISY-SoftView functions are accessible using the touchscreen interface. The most
important functions can be selected directly using the function keys on the main window.
The display of the main window depends on the configuration.
Figure 2 shows an example in the "Standard" mode. The volume is shown without
temperature compensation.
Figure 3 shows an example in the "Truck Driver Display" mode with temperature compensated volume.

Date and time
Main window -> Display field for date and time
This display field shows the date and time. The time displayed here is synchronised
system-wide.
As soon as you touch this field, all open windows close and the application
returns to the main window.
4.2
System messages
Main window -> Display field for system messages
This display field shows the system status and displays help on how to operate the
function keys of the main window.
The system status relates to the communication between the display module and the
control unit. For example, “System Status: OK” will be displayed when conditions are
normal.
As soon as you touch this field, all open windows close and the application
returns to the main window.

current volume of product in this tank
The display is continuously updated so that all measured values on display are current at
all times. In this overview, the ullage and volume are displayed in whole litres.
The size of the tank graphic depends on the quantity of tanks configured in VISY-Setup.
Up to eight tanks at a time can be shown on the main window. Where more than eight
tanks have been configured, the remaining tanks are shown on a second page. By
pressing the “More tanks” function key it is possible to view the next page.
The product level is displayed in proportion to the measured filling level. Each product
has its own colour assigned to it.
Touching one of the tank graphics opens the Tank Details screen for this tank
(see section 4.5).

Device/probe designation (here: “Interstitial”)
•
Number (1 to 16, quantity sometimes device-dependent)
•
Configuration (Yes/No) Background colour: see below.

Alarm condition (possible values: "OK", "alarm" or "-"
The colour mapping is:
Green:
No alarm present.
Red:
An alarm is present for one of the devices.
Grey:
It was not yet configured a probe/device, status is displayed as "-".
Further information may be available, depending on the device type:

VISY-SoftView
Page 52/72
Activate the email transmission only if all required configurations have been

−
"Email alarm recipients"
−
"Daily Report & Deliveries via email"
−
"SMTP server" (here, you can use the provided test function "Send Email")
−
"Network Settings" (see "Control Panel")
For maintenance services that possibly could cause alarms, a temporary deactivation of the email transmission should be considered, in order to avoid
unintended alarms in head quarter systems.

Network Settings
General
To communicate over a network (LAN/Ethernet), it is necessary for the computers to use a
common address space. The IP address consists of a “network part” and a “host part”.
The network part of IP address must match the local network.
The host part of the IP address may occur only once in the network.
The "Subnet Mask" separates the network and host parts of the IP address.
Typically, the assignment of IP addresses is managed by an IT administrator.
Ask the responsible person for the required settings.
Network settings
Open the function to assign the network parameters by a "double click" on the
button "Network and Dial-up Connections".
Open the Ethernet settings by a "double click" on the button "FEC1".
Tab "IP Address" to configure the IP address
Factory setting
Figure 46: Network settings, IP address
To assign the IP address, there are two possibilities:
Automatic assignment via DHCP  Option "Obtain an IP address via DHCP"
Manually entry of a fixed IP address  Option "Specify an IP address"
Page 57/72
VISY-SoftView
Typically, the assignment of IP addresses is managed by an IT administrator.
Ask the responsible person for the required settings.
A network conflict, such as the assignment of the same IP-address to more
than one system in the network, can lead to serious network problems.
Tab "Name Server" for setting the IP address(es) of DNS servers
Figure 47: Network settings, DNS server addresses
When using the DHCP method, the IP addresses of the DNS servers may be automatically
assigned. In this field additional DNS server addresses can be entered.

This function enables the touchscreen to be cleaned for a defined period
