1.1 Background
This document describes all the menus and sub-menus which are displayed on the Hand-Held
Terminal (HHT) while configuring, maintenance and data access to the dispenser. The Hand-Held
Terminal device has a wide range of settings such as functions that includes parameter configuration,
query, calibration, test, and diagnostics.
The Hand-Held terminal device receives data from the TQC inside the dispenser so that the user could
set the correct parameters; these parameters are sent back to TQC for proper functionality.
This document will also define the function keys and some shortcut keys for better manipulation of the
Hand-Held Terminal.
1.2 Nomenclature
1.3 References
The Hand-Held Terminal is an equipment used for setting up the configuration, setup, maintenance,
operation, data access of the Tokheim Quality Calculator (TQC). The device contains the following
software and hardware components;
• IrDA interface
• Alphanumerical Keypad
• Dot Matrix Display
• Serial port for downloading of SW to HHT
• Battery ( rechargeable )
• Serial port to communicate to TQC, instead of IR ( China only )

Note: In the next chapter a full description of these functions will be explained
When the Hand Held Terminal (HHT) has been connected successfully to the TQC, the first screen
shown is to select configuration. The function keys on the Hand-Held Terminal (HHT) are defined as
it follows;
UP a) Move up
b) Move right
c) Up scroll the parameter list
d) Next Record number
DOWN a) Move down
b) Move left
c) Down scroll the parameter list
d) Previous Record number

Every screen on the Hand Held terminal (HHT) can display eleven rows, and support up/down
scrolling line. When there are more than eleven rows shown, the following symbol [OK1/2] will tell
the user the amount of pages that are currently viewed by the user at that specific moment in the menu.
In this case it has 2 pages.
When the symbols [↑] or [↓] are present in the screen, it meets vertical single-choice or multiple-
choices in the Hand Held Terminal menu, the user will be able to select the choices by scrolling UP
[ ] or DOWN[ ] from the Hand Held Terminal (HHT).The user could select the item
requested by pressing the key SEL [ ] on the Hand Held Terminal. At last the user must then

There are different PIN Levels in the menu of the Hand Held Terminal.
The access level for lower operating level can be accessed without PIN once a certain (higher)
operating level PIN has been introduced before. In other words when a user enters a PIN in the
Configuration. The user will be able to get into the Operation, Management, Maintenance menus
without a PIN. However, a PIN would be needed when entering a higher Level menu, in this case

Start Start: Begin diagnosing the system
- Starting phase: Allows the system to be sucked vacuum and let the Gallus measure any flow from that. This
phase will take 10 seconds in which the vacuum must have been stabilized. During this time, the VR
Module allows any gallus flow to be detected (this is ignored but displayed on the HHT). After the expiry of
the vacuum stabilizing time, the next phase is initiated:
- Leak test phase: This phase starts with a steady vacuum and will run for 50 seconds, checking if gallus holes
are seen. Two gallus holes are allowed to be seen before the error ‘leak detected’ is generated and the test
will immediately stop. If after this time, there is no ‘leak’ detected, the test finalizes with OK result.
This test will not be able to detect the smallest of leaks as only the holes on the optical wheel of the gallus meter
can be used. A leak-flow of rougly 7,5 ml / second or 450 ml / minute might be accepted as OK in this test. An
exact figure of this leak flow is hard to give because of a non-linear optical wheel movement and the start
position of the disc prior to running the test.
Note: A Gallus meter is always required for this test, the VCC will / cannot be used for leak test purposes for two
reasons:
- VCC is not accurate in low-flow conditions having a very low pressure.
- Leaks between VCC and pump will not be seen if the VCC would even be suitable for this purpose.
- Not connecting a Gallus properly will also not detect leaks if there are any.
There’s no visual indication that the test is active and it will only be active for the first delivery (or dry test) on
that side.
The latest 02 and 03 release also allow to select FIP “All” denoting to run the test on all FIPs with a single HHT
action.
Start: Activate TÜV parameters in the selected side. TÜV parameters will set the number of bad efficiencies
(before the nozzle block timer is started) temporarily to ‘1’ and the time before that nozzle actually blocks
temporarily to 1 minute. In the latest 02 and 03 release it will also clear the bad efficiency counters for all non-
blocked VR nozzles.
After pressing “Start”, the menu traverses to a menu where the dry test can be started. Either the dry test or a real
delivery can be used to perform the TÜV test on the selected side(s) now.
Please note that the bad efficiency is to be created manually by either blocking the VR inlet of the nozzle or put a
electrical resistor on the motor or valve output such that the physical VR system does not really operate but the
TQC does not detect this.
The delivery or dry test must meet the minimum conditions set in the VR configuration (minimum flow (25
l/min) for a specified minimum time (20 seconds) and a minimum fuel volume (20 liter), these numbers are
default numbers and can be different in your situation).

For TQC Release 4, there is added some functionality to detect & reprogram not used HYMs and
pulsers.
Basically, in Manufacturing they will not mount not used hardware, but if they do, they can encounter
some additional warnings in the final auto configure result screen.
Ext power xx [WAR] Failed to put on the external power of a CAN connector on device xx. Caution, all
Failed xx [WAR] devices connected to that device are likely not to be auto-configured.
Device xx will probably be auto-configured itself, therefore it can have a different
address now. It’s best to lookup the device type belonging to this address and
check the connections / software version.
Request 0 [ERR] TQC ARM9 Inter-process communication failed, try to start the auto-configure
number of 0 [ERR] method again. If this problem persists, call the service department.

Failed 0 [ERR]
Unknown xx [WAR] Device xx reported an unknown default address yy. This likely when the device is
def A yy xx [WAR] not yet (fully) supported by the current TQC ARM9 software, this device type
will probably be skipped in auto-configuration, maybe leaving chain-connected
devices not configured as well. Please report this error to the service department.
Unused 02 [WAR] A pulser is connected on a not used HYM position. Check all HYMs for pulsers
MPC found 02 [WAR] connected at not powered (pulser power LED on HYM is off) connectors, unplug
& unmount this pulser. Check if some pulser in the result comes with result ‘ERR’
denoting this pulser might need to be connected at that position.
Unexpectd xx [WAR] A HYM is connected on a not used HYM position. Letter y tells where this HYM
HYM_y xx [WAR] is positioned. Both pulser outputs will not be powered (pulser power LED on
HYM is off) after auto-configuration. Unmount this HYM and anything connected
to it.
“OK” : Programming OK
“ERR” : Error in programming the specified device, the device failed to assume the requested address.
“MOD” : Timeout in programming the module ID for a device (no response)
“PWR” : Timeout in switching on / off the power to a CAN connector. This is typically the case for
configured HYMs that are not present on the CAN bus.
“N/A” : Unresponsive device during programming. Maybe a pulser has no operational software or the CAN
bus is not well terminated.
“VER” : When a dynamic addressable device did not respond to the set address PDO message, while it is in
operational state on the CAN bus (stating that the device software-version is probably outdated).

The software package used for updating the TQC in the field will be the same package as used in the initial
software loading in the factory. The only difference is that for the factory the package filename does not contain
a version number and for the software update it does contain the version number.
When on the field TQC, the software package is being installed, only the files different from the already installed
version will be taken over. This will be done by comparing the version number inside the current component
against the version number of the component inside the software package. Components available in the update
package and not available in the field TQC will be taken over always.
To determine which Software update package to install below two locations will be investigated and the highest
version number will be presented as selectable:
1) The SD-Card: Used as portable memory stick. The directory on which to store the Software
Update package is /mnt/sdcard/home/TQC/Transfer.
2) The Ram memory: Used for network transfer of the SW Update package. The directory on
which to store the Software Update package is /home/TQC/Transfer.
The name of the Software Update package will have no Region indication incorporated. So the
package name will be: TQC_APP_<MM>_<mmm>_<tt>.gz. Where:
MM = Major Version Number
mmm = Minor Version Number
tt = Test Version Number
MID-Reminder: The above mechanism takes care that installing new software will not interfere with running
software since Linux loads/runs the components in memory; the components in the flash-disk are therefore free
for update.
Important note: After software update, TQC always need to be restarted when upgrading
to any V04 or 05 release.
