Installation of VIGO

Installation
of VIGO
NOTE:
Before starting any installation of VIGO, unplug any PD3950 modules that are attached to the PC.
This setup guide will inform on when to plug in these modules again. This guide will assume that
you are using the Software Packages and will have the following folder structure.
STEP ONE, software installation:

Step note
It might be a good idea to uninstall the KIGO Software from the PC. Do this by entering the control
panel (START -> Control Panel) and go into "Programs and Features". Here find KIGO in the list, right
click and click uninstall.
Guide line
Locate the vigo590.zip file inside the Software folder and extract this to any desired location and
when extracted run the vigo590.exe file.
When running, click next on all possible pages that appear, without changing any default settings in
the installation Wizard. When you reach the "Open the readme file", unclick this option and close
the wizard, the VIGO 5.9 Software is now installed.
STEP TWO, loading workspace

To load a workspace into VIGO, first open the VIGO application, by clicking the VIGO shortcut that
has been installed onto the Desktop
This should open up VIGO. When opened, use the top menustrip to find the "Files -> Configuration ->
Restore" menu item, like shown in the following picture.
This will open a dialog that will ask to find the desired .vcf file that should be used. Here select the
"Standard workspace (12-12-2013).vcf" file located inside the Workspace folder.
Select the file and click "open". VIGO will now load the workspace and after a few seconds it will ask
you to close VIGO.
Click Yes and VIGO will close.

STEP THREE, running the PNET Service Gateway
In order to configure this Software tool, used for communicating with the PD3950 black VIGO
module, it's needed to run the PNet Service Gateway application that has been installed together
with VIGO 5.9.
To start the application run the P-NET Gateway Service Editor shortcut found in the Process-Data
installation folder. This folder can be found by entering the START menu, click all programs and find
the PROCES DATA folder, as shown in the below picture.
Opening this Software will show you the following window

Here press the "Configure the selected service", as the first thing. (Doing this might prompt you with
a notice to enter a password to VIGO. Here type "filling" without the "" and press OK:
When VIGO has started another prompt will be shown. Click yes to this:
Your service is now configured and you can close the Service Editor.
STEP FOUR, configuring the USB PD3950 modules

Step note
Before running step four, please insert the USB PD3950 modules into the PC, in the order of systems.
Example; you have 3 systems, insert the module connected to system 1 first ending with the module
that is connected to system 3. If you have multiple networks on the same system (More PD3950
modules for 1 system), insert the first network, then the second and so on.
Extra notes
- Normally for a carousel system with a palletizer the carousel is the first network and the
palletizer is the second.
- On a Flexspeed system, insert the carousel first, then the standalone machines, then the
palletizer (If any)
Each of this guide lines needs to be done once for every PD3950 module that is being connected,
with the exception of Guide line 3.
To configure the PD3950 modules first open the VIGO application, by clicking the VIGO shortcut that
has been installed onto the Desktop
Guide line 1, settings up masters

Inside the VIGO Software, locate KC_CUC: and unfold this. Now locate PD3950 and unfold this
aswell. Right click the PD3950 field and click "Set P-NET Node Address" as shown in the below
picture
A new Window will open, prompting "No Response, timeout" ("Ikke noget svar, tid udløbet" in
Danish in the screenshot):
As shown above, type in the Serial number that is locate on the label on the PD3950 black module in
the textbox saying "Serial Number". Then type in "4" in the textbox saying "Number of Masters" and
click Apply. You window will now change to the following:
If the window reports the error 1168 after doing this (Net short circuit) then swap the A and B wires
on connected to the PD3950 module.
When the windows looks like the above, close it.

Guide line 2, Setting up license
Next thing we need to do is to setup the License for VIGO. Do this by entering the License menu
found in the top under "Files -> License -> License Server":
Clicking this will open the following window:

As shown first select "License Server" from the Get VIGO License from dropdown box. After having
done this, type or select (See below) " KC_CUC:USBModules.USB interface 1.PD3950 USB To PNET
Interface net1" in the License Server textbox.
It's possible to select the workspace to check for license. To do this click the "MIB" button to the
right of the License Server field to allow for selection inside the workspace. Here select the "PD3950
USB To PNET Interface net1" as shown in the following image.
When selected (You will need to double click) press Ok and the window will close. If there's no error,
the license has been successfully located.
Guide line 3, setting up Baudrate
To allow for configuration of the Baudrate, the writeenable flag needs to be set to true. In order to
do this navigate to the WriteEnable flag as shown in the below image. This images shows only for
the USB interface 1, but the procedure is the same for each USB interface (PD3950)
When found and selected, enable the value field, by clicking on the value checkbox in the top
When checked, the window will look as the following
Here type in True instead of False and press ENTER. Doing this will set WriteEnable to enabled.
When WriteEnable has been set, it will be possible to set the Baudrate. To do this navigate to the
Baudrate field as shown below. Here set the value in the value field to 9600 and press enter. Repeat
this step for each module.
