4.0 Pre-Power Up
Before powering up and after checking all peripheral and power supply connections, check the ribbon
cable orientation and the Panel-PC jumper placement to ensure these connections are secure.
5.0 Power Up
If the Data Pro is AC powered, set the panel “On/Off” switch to “On”.
If the Data Pro is DC powered, turn on the DC power supply.
On the Data Pro, set the panel “On/Off” button to “On”.
On power up, the system takes approximately 45 seconds to perform the boot-up process
and start the software application.
If the Data Pro is acting as a Modbus master with no gauge control, you should start seeing
data tabs for all connected devices within a few seconds.
If the Data Pro is using an FIC gauge interface, it will take approximately 1.5 minutes to
complete the power up process during which time a tab for each FIC will appear showing
the boot up status.
If the Data Pro is using an SPS gauge interface, it will take approximately 3 minutes to
complete the power up process during which time a tab for the SPS will appear showing the
boot up status
New gauge data tabs are displayed as the system detects the new gauge connections. The gauge data
tab updates the information in the real-time. The ‘Auto Toggle Tabs’ checkbox enables toggling
between the peripheral and data tabs. The bottom of the screen displays the ‘Up’ time and available
data storage space. The ‘Up’ time represents the operating time since the last power-up.
All sub screens have a timeout that if left unattended will automatically close and bring you back to the
main menu.

The time tab shown in Figure 8 lets the user select real time, 24 hours, last week or a specific date
range to graph. To plot a specific time-period, enter dates into the ‘From’ and ‘To’ fields before clicking
the ‘Date Range’ button (see Figure 8 and Figure 9).
The ‘Device’ tab (Figure 10) shows all the devices that have been connected to the system for the
selection of ‘24 Hours’, ‘Last Week’, and ‘Date Range’ under ‘Time’ tab. The selection of ‘Real-
Time’ shows only currently connected devices.
The “Left Y-Axis” and “Right Y-Axis” tabs allow the user to select which sensor or Modbus channel to
plot on the y and x axes (Figure 11).
After all the selections have been made, click the ‘Graph’ button. The ‘Loading Chart Data’ message
displays while the data buffers to memory. The ‘Real Time’ option plots the selected parameter for 30
minutes. After 30 minutes, if the graphing screen is idle, the plot screen is closed and the main screen
is shown.
Figure 12 is an example of a graph with intake temperature on the left y-axis (in red) and intake
pressure on the right y-axis (in blue). The title of the graph at top shows the selected gauge serial
number and parameter names. After viewing the graph, select the ‘Done’ button to return to the Start
Up Screen in Figure 7.
NOTE:
The factory default password to enter the Main Menu is ‘1234’.
7.1 Logging
All the device and peripheral data is stored on internal memory. The user can export the stored data to
the removable USB memory stick through the front USB drive port.
The ‘Memory Logging’ screen displays the following information/functions (see Figure 14):
1. Timestamp when the system first starts logging.
2. Timestamp when the system was working last.
3. Elapsed time represents the length of time the system has been logging.
4. The storage used.
5. The system log files occupy the memory space (not for end user, mainly used for program
validation).
6. The data storage space available on the internal memory ( Available memory is shown on the main
screen as a percentage of internal memory)
7. The space left for program memory (not for end user, mainly used for program memory check).
8. The time left on the internal memory before it is full is automatically calculated by the application
based upon set sample rate and all parameters logged.
9. Delete all the data files, event files, and analog files.
10. The internal log data exports to the USB memory stick via the front panel USB port.
11. The system log and binary files can be copied to the USB memory stick then sent to GRC for
analysis or troubleshooting assistance

The user can download the logs from the main screen or through the logging screen by:
Menu Logging Download Logs
Once the ‘Download Logs’ is clicked, the system detects the presence of the USB stick and opens the
window to enter the folder name. The default folder name is ‘Data Pro time stamp’ (Figure 15 see
Figure 15). Change the folder name as need and then press “Save”. The system shows the download
progression bar during the download and a message upon its successful completion (Figure 16).
NOTE:
Perform ‘Clear Logs’ operation after ‘Download Logs’ once the internal memory Free
Space isbelow 50%.
The ‘Clear Log’ operation enables the user to delete all the accumulated logs to free up space on the
SD card by following below menu steps:
Menu Logging Clear Logs
Press “NO” to abort the ‘Clear Logs’ action. The screen will return to the ‘Memory/Logging’ screen
without erasing the internal log file data. Once the ‘Clear Log’ action is performed and successful, the
‘percentage free space’ on the bottom-left of the main front screen should be around 80%. The
successful execution of ‘Clear Log’ resets the ‘Data Start’ time stamp of the Data Pro.
NOTE:
The execution of ‘Clear Logs’ does affect the amount of data displayed in ‘Date Range’
graphing option.
The ‘Export Diagnostics’ option allows the users to download the application log files (*.log) and the
gauge binary files (*.bin) which are not part of the standard ‘Download logs’ option. These files can be
sent to GRC support staff to troubleshoot any application related issues.
The internal memory stores a large amount of data so the export to USB can take significant time. As
an example of data storage, the system with two PCP-5500 gauges (6 parameters per gauge {Pi, Ti,
Pd, Td, Vx, Vy}) writes 12 parameters. As a result, 1000 megabytes of SD card memory is consumed in
about 1 week with a setting of 2 seconds sample rate. Table 7 shows the time taken to transfer the data
to the USB drive based on the current data export rate, which is 32 Megabytes/min. The export of 100
megabytes to the USB stick does take about 3.2 minutes, whereas export of 5 gigabyte can take about
2.5 hours. It is advisable to perform ‘Clear Logs’ once the ‘Total Data’ is above 1 GB, in order to limit
the USB export time to approximately 30 minutes.
Table 8 shows an example of system with two PCP-5500 gauges with different sample rates. The
sample rate of 2 seconds will fill up the SD card in just 46 weeks whereas sample rate of 1 minute will
fill up the SD card in 119 weeks.
Table 9 shows an example of system with one ESP-3500 gauge (8 parameters Pi, Ti, Tm, MOR, Vx,
Vy, Lc, Lv) with different system sample rates.
NOTE:
The Data Pro application calculates the approximated data-space/time-left based on the
set sample rate and all sampled parameters.

NOTE:
Data Pro use port 502 for TCP/IP Modbus communication
Any changes to the Modbus setup will cause the Data Pro to reboot.
8.1.1 Name
The name of a Modbus device must be unique and cannot contain spaces. The name of the device is
used as the file name for the data collected and for referencing in other parts of the program.
8.1.2 COM
COM will show where the device is connected it will show either the com port number or TCP.
8.1.3 Baud/IP
If the device is a serial type device, this field will show the baud rate. If the device is a TCP/IP device it
will show the IP address for that device.
8.1.4 M/S
This field indicates how the device is being used. If it is set to “S” (slave) then the Data Pro will actively
poll that device if a Modbus map is set. If it is set to “M” (master)then the Data Pro will be listening for
requests.
8.1.5 ADDR
This field displays the Modbus slave address that the Data Pro will use to communicate with an
attached device.
8.1.6 Unit_ID
This field displays the address, which an external master uses to poll/command the attached device.
This tab allows editing of the current selected device on the “Devices” tab. The “Up” and ”Dn” buttons
allow the user to navigate up and down the list of devices from the “Devices” tab without having to
switch between tabs. The “Add” and “Del” buttons will add or remove devices from the “Devices” tab.
See important items to note below:
1. If “COM” type is “TCP”, then “Baud” will change to “IP Addr”.
2. The load button will install a preconfigured map, or a new map from the front panel USB drive. The
difference between this button and the “Import” button are that the “Devices” tab only affects the
currently selected device.
8.3.1.1 Alias
The default name for this parameter is “Analog In”. The alias is an alternate name for the default name
that will be referenced in the log files.
8.3.1.2 Input Range
The “Volts/Current” settings must match the jumper settings on the main board for accurate value
calculation. Enter a “Min” and “Max” reading for scaling.
8.3.1.3 Calculated Values
These values represent the “Min/Max” values displayed and saved. For instance, if the “Input Range –
Min” is set to 5, and the “Calculated Values – Min” is set to 25, and the current reading from the actual
sensor is 5, then the Data Pro will output 25 to the display, Modbus map, and csv. The units field is a
free-hand field without calculation and can be used to identify the reading. If no “Calculated Values” are
entered, then no scaling will occur and raw data will be output.
Select any gauge or peripheral parameter to output through the 4-20mA loop (Figure 20). The
The 4-20mA configurations are saved automatically. The saved configurations are loaded after a
power cycle.. On the initial power up, the ‘4-20mA Out’ readings on the main screen are
displayed ‘4mA’ for the gauge parameters selection only for during FIC-1500/SPS-1500
initialization period. Once the scanning process is complete and gauge readings are available,
then ‘4-20mA Out’ readings on the main screen will be true representation of the set ‘4mA’ and
‘20mA’ limits.
To disable the ‘Alarm’ condition select the ‘Threshold Disabled/off’ button via Menu Peripherals
Relay#1 Edit Threshold Disabled/off (Figure 23). The relay resets automatically once the channel
reading is below the set-threshold value if the user selects ‘Auto Reset’ in the threshold type while
setting up the relay configuration.

The Data Pro provides the ability to restart the FIC using the following steps:
Menu Interface Setup Interface for Gauges Restart Interface
Clicking on the ‘Restart Interface’ takes the user to the front Main Menu screen and then proceeds
with scanning process.
** CAUTION **
THE FIC STATUS WINDOW SHOULD DISPLAY ‘SAVE GAUGES’ BEFORE ADDING OR
CHANGING GAUGES.
If ‘AutoVolt’ is enabled, FIC continuously analyzes the gauge communication and automatically
determines the appropriate voltage levels for the ‘Target Signal’, ‘Line Volts’, and ‘COM Voltage’. If
this feature is disabled then the user must manually set the ‘Target signal’, ‘Line Volts’, and ‘COM
When ‘Autovolt’ is enabled, the ‘Target Signal’ represents the desired signal level seen by the FIC
that is about ½ the desired tool voltage. The default ‘Target Signal’ is 9mA, which corresponds to 18V
desired tool voltage as set by the FIC controller.
Follow the menu steps below to change the ‘Target Signal’:
Menu Interface Setup Interface for Gauge Config Target Signal Edit
If ‘Auto Volt’ is OFF, ‘Line’ and ‘COM’ voltages stay at their default settings. The user can try different
‘Line Volts’ values to mitigate the gauge communication problems. The recommended minimum and
maximum Line Volt values are 15V and 27V respectively. The combined ‘Line’ and ‘COM’ voltages
cannot exceed 33V as set by the FIC interface for the downhole gauge.
Follow the menu steps below to change the ‘Line Voltage’:
Menu Interface Setup Interface For Gauge Config Line Voltage Edit
A general rule is to set the ‘COM’ voltage to ¼ of the Line voltage (for example, if Line voltage is set to
20, then set COM voltage to 5). The recommended minimum and maximum ‘COM Volt’ settings are 3V
and 10V respectively. Follow the menu steps below to change the COM Voltage:
Menu Interface Setup Interface For Gauge Config COM Voltage Edit
The installed FICs have Modbus slave ‘ID’ of 1 and 2. Change the FIC slave ID via following menu
steps:
Menu Interface Setup Interface For Gauge Config Address Edit
The FIC Modbus slave ID configuration screen will show the allowed range of addresses. The user
enters the new address using the onboard keypad then selects ‘Save’. The application will show a
message after the successful change of the Modbus ID.
NOTE:
When connecting multiple gauges to the Data Pro, first configure each gauge
individually. The gauges connected to each FIC musthave different Modbus address.
The recommendation is not to change gauge address while the gauge is downhole. A warning
message appears on the screen for the user to acknowledge and confirm the action of ‘Gauge Address
Change’. The menu steps to change the gauge Modbus address:
Menu Interface Setup Interface For Gauge Config Chan Addr Edit
** CAUTION **
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHANGE ADDRESS OF A GAUGE AT TEMPERATURES ABOVE
800C.
NOTE:
The Data Pro displays the gauge tab after 3 minutes of power-up because of SPS-1500
initialization and synchronization processes.
NOTE:
The ESP gauge will not operate properly if any phase on the motor circuit becomes
shorted or open.
NOTE:
The user shall make the required selection for all the channels at once and then click on
the ‘Upload’ button to save the changes to the Data Pro.
The streaming mode, available only on ‘U-Command’ gauges, sets the faster sampling time for the
‘High Speed Enabled’ channels and their sampling rate is reflected in the ‘Rate (Sec.)’ column on the
‘Ch. Config’ screen. The ‘High Speed Enabled’ channel is represented by ‘+’ sign next to parameter
name on the front screen gauge data grid. After changes, new gauge log files are created based on the
updated enabled/disabled channel. Data will then record at sample rate set by:
Menu System Sample Rate
In order to record the ‘high speed’ channel data, the user must change the sample rate of the Data Pro
to match the ‘Rate (Sec.)’ time,
8.7 System
Figure 44shows the features that are available to the user under System Configuration tab.
Once the updated application begins, check the ‘Data Pro FW Version’ by going to Menu About to
make sure that ‘FW Version’ matches the intended USB firmware update version (Figure 49).
8.7.6 Restart
To restart the Data Pro application, execute the following steps:
Menu System Restart
This action closes the running program, re-opens the application, then restarts the process of scanning
for connected gauges. It uses the previously saved configuration setting and resumes writing to the
previously created gauge data files.
This feature enables the user to restore the factory default settings (Table 11). The execution of this
feature overwrites the existing configuration file, which means loss of configuration setting on relays,
analog inputs, analog outputs, and communication ports. No logging data is lost by a factory reset. To
remove the log data, the user must proceed to the logging data menu and delete the data.

8.7.9 Network
Configure the network before use. The use may configure both network interfaces along with the FTP
server. The Ethernet ports support DHCP or Static IP addressing. The network can be configured to
support a DNS server. When editing any of the data, a small “*” asterisk will appear on the tab that has
been edited. This shows that the configuration has been changed but not saved. When all changes
have been completed, press the “Save” button to save the settings to the Data Pro. There may be a
small delay after pressing save as the network interfaces are configured and restarted.
The Data Pro has a Secure FTP server that will allow remote data downloading. Default mode is FTP
disabled. To use this feature click the “Enable FTP” check box and set the password as desired then
press “Save”. The user can then connect to the Data Pro via the IP address of either of the network
with an FTP client that supports “Secure FTP” or “SFTP”. After FTP configuration, data may be
downloaded to a remote FTP device. Data CANNOT be deleted via the FTP process.
NOTE:
Switch downhole power off before executing any Megger testing. Failure to do this can
result in equipment damage and personnel injury. All Sercel ESP gauges are designed
to allow a 5KV megger testing.
The LCD of SPS-1500 will display error codes depending on the failure it is detecting. Below is a list of
common error codes and possible solutions to assist with troubleshooting the SPS-1500.
