IntroductionThe purpose of this manual is to guide installers, operators and technicians through programming and troubleshooting theTS-5 console, so that it’s configured based on a site’s specific needs. The Fuel Management Systems (FMS) application within the TS-5 Series consoles tie together the monitoring and alarm capabilities of preceding automatic tank gauges with advanced technologies to supply tank and level data more accurately and efficiently. This manual is also designed to introduce technicians to the optional LCD Graphical User Interface, which is used as an input device to program system configuration and maintain all applications from the front panel of the console. Overall safety issues, troubleshooting information, warranty, service and return policies, as defined in this manual, must be followed.

FMS FunctionsThe main function of the Fuel Management System is to represent levels for inventory and tank leak testing by monitoring probe inputs and performing calculations based on those inputs. Line leak sensing devices also provide input signals. Results from these calculations may be used for system monitoring and/or regulatory compliance. The console, in conjunction with external fuel system equipment, may provide positive system shutdown, based on programmed rules.

Sites that utilize Fuel Management Systems have the ability to monitor and perform: • Tank Inventory Level Information • Tank Leak Detection • Sensor Configuration • Line Leak Detection • Sump Leak Detection • Compliance Line and Leak Testing

FMS also allows sites to generate and print the following reports: • Inventory Reports • Delivery Reports • Tank Test Results • SCALD Testing Reports • Regulatory Reports • Sensor Reports

GeneralAfter the Fuel Management System has been installed, typically your interaction with the system will be from the LCD display, on-board printer; or using TSA (Tank Sentinel Anyware) software to program and monitor the console remotely. Remote operation can be performed from a PC, either attached directly or through a network connection to the console. All of the features of the console are available through these input/output devices. Also, the console may be set up to generate and send automated reports to email accounts or print reports at a programmed time.

At times, it may be required to obtain console information, such as model and serial numbers. The model number is physically located on the face of the console. The serial number is located on a small plaque placed on the bottom of the left panel. This label also contains the model number, voltage, manufacturer’s address, a warning symbol and the unit’s voltage specifications.

User Interfaces (UI)LCD Touch Screen Interface A LCD touch screen is standard on the TS-5 (TS-608) consoles and can be ordered as an option on the TS-550(TS-EMS) and TS-5000. The “D” designation in the console’s model number indicates that a LCD display was ordered with the system. This bright display, with an adjustable contrast setting, allows easy viewing in any lighting condition. A programmable screen saver automatically turns the backlight off after 5 minutes, if selected, and extends the life of the display.

Touch Screen CalibrationDuring initial setup, it will be necessary to calibrate the touch screen function of the LCD display. Calibrating the touch screen will enable the console to better recognize the area that you “touch,” so that you can accurately enter in information. To calibrate the touch-screen function of the display, you must first access the calibration application. 1. From the HOME MENU, press MAIN MENU > DOWN > TOOLS > TOUCHSCREEN CALIBRATION.2. The console will ask if you are sure that you want to proceed, answer Yes.3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the calibration process.

TSA (Tank Sentinel Anyware) InterfaceEach TS-5 Series console includes an Ethernet port and programming options to eliminate the need for an Ethernet port server or a external/internal modem (although both options are still available). The advantages to using an Ethernet connection are: faster connection speeds, quicker data transfer rates, less data errors or quicker recovery of data when errors occur, and it does not require extra software or drivers to be loaded. This means that console parameters can be modified and that status/alarm reports can be printed from virtually anywhere.

Access ControlThere are three access levels programmed into the console’s operating system: Guest, User, and Administrator. Each level will allow an operator to access different features or change specific settings on the console. This security feature prevents unauthorized tampering of console configurations.

The User Role icon will appear in the upper-right corner of the LCD display as one of the following:

• ONE BAR filled operates at the GUEST level. Guests are allowed to access menu options and check the system configurations. The GUEST will not be able to modify the console settings.

• TWO BARS filled operates at the USER level. Users are given limited access to certain areas of the operating system to make changes or print reports.

• THREE BARS filled operates as an ADMINISTRATOR. This level grants access to all areas of programming and setup configuration. The administrator privilege is usually assigned to the designated technician of a site.

Configuration MenuConfiguration OptionsUsing the options in this menu, you can configure the console passwords, network parameters, current time and date and set an accurate time zone. For instructions on setting passwords (see Section 1: Console – Basic Operation, Changing Passwords).

Once the console has been powered up, navigate the console by pressing the screen on the appropriate button. Starting at the Home Status Menu, press the Main Menu button. Select the Configuration button.Select from the options in the Network Parameters section that follows to view/change console configuration settings.

Network ParametersTo communicate with your network equipment (i.e. router, switch, hub, etc.), and then you will need to modify the network parameters.

IP Address – This is a logical (electronic) address, like your street address, that the console uses to route information. This address will have to match your network, if connected to a network, in order to ‘talk’ to a remote communication device, your PC or laptop computer.

Network Mask – Masking is a way to diversify the use of multiple subnets. The mask must match that of the network the console is connected to. Masks are used in networking to create ‘sub-networks’ within a whole, like slicing and apple. You have separate slices that may be in different locations, but they are still from the same apple. Administrators use this to make separate networks, to maximize bandwidth or capacity of medium resources (cables or fiber). Therefore, when your network uses static IP addressing (assigned by an administrator), this mask must match the Network Mask of the router port that it is attached to. If the network utilizes a DHCP server (automatically assigns IP addresses) then the mask should meet the specifications set by your administrator.

Gateway – The Gateway is the logical address to the nearest router port, commonly the one that is connected to the console. Consult your administrator for details on this and other network parameters.

MiscellaneousLeak TestingAll TS-5 series console models meet (or exceed) the requirements of the U.S. Environment Protection Agency (EPA/530/UST-90/006 test protocol) for Automatic Tank Gauging Systems (ATGS) for Monthly Monitoring for 0.2 gal/hr leaks of Underground Storage Tanks. The system(s) also meet (or exceed) the requirements for Annual Tank Tightness Testing for 0.1 gal/hr leaks of the National Work Group on Leak Detection Evaluations (NWGLDE). For the most recent third-party documentation, visit the NWGLDE website at www.nwglde.org.

OverviewTank and/or line leak tests are performed on a regular schedule according to test type. In addition, leak tests can be started manually from the console display or web interface.

To obtain valid results, leak tests should be started when conditions in the tank or line are stable and will remain stable throughout the test (such as during non-business hours). A test will not and can not pass if tank and/or line conditions are disturbed. Deliveries and dispenses will cause thermal instability or product turbulence, which will interfere with tank leak testing. These disturbances may cause the test to report a failure, an increased result, or cause the test to run for 8 hours and report an indeterminate test result. Wait at least 6 hours after a product delivery, and 2 hours after product dispensing stops, before forcing Tank Leak Tests.

Make sure there is enough time to run the test without interruption – print out a test Estimate Report before running a tank test. Generally tank tests take about 4 to 5 hours to finish (the exact time required depends on the type of test being performed, size of the tank, volume of product in the tank, and the product temperature).

The best time to test the tank integrity (leak test) is when it is full or nearly full. Regulatory requirements in some areas insist on having a certain percentage of product in the tank before a test can be considered valid and in compliance. Try to run tests on tanks that are 50% full or greater. SCALD leak tests can run only when tank levels are at or above the set “Qualify” value.

Tank Leak Tests – Type and FrequencyTank Testing software (option T) includes Static and SCALD tank testing. Both tests comply with federal, state and local codes and regulatory agencies, which specify how often to run these tests. Consult and comply with these rules and regulations.

CautionIt is the tank owner’s obligation to comply with the procedures and the reporting requirements of federal, state and local regulations. You are legally bound to follow these regulations explicitly. When policies conflict with this manual, follow the regulations.

Static Tank Testing Requirements• Print a leak test Estimate Report.• There must be enough quiet time to finish the test with no product dispensing.

Note: A 10,000 gallon tank requires about 5 or 6 hours to finish.

• Wait at least 6 hours after a product delivery – or – 2 hours after a product dispense. Active tanks without Stage II vapor recovery may require longer stabilization periods.

INCON does not recommend running both Line & Tank Leak Tests at the same time.

When to Force Static Tank Leak Tests• To comply with federal, state, and local regulatory agency requirements.• To comply with the policy and procedures of your site.• Whenever a leak detection sensor alarms — this is especially important when a discriminating BriteSensor detects a

liquid / vapor hydrocarbon (product). A failed leak test and BriteSensor product alarm indicates a tank or product-line leak.

Note: Standard/product alarms may be caused by motor oil runoff during heavy rains, or because a BriteSensor has detected a product leak from a tank. Take a sample from the area for chemical analysis.

Tank Leak Test ResultsLeak test results are either increase, passed, failed, or indeterminate.

Reasons Why Tank Leak Tests Fail The tank leaks. Temperature instability – temperature variations of the product within the tank after a delivery is the most common source of interference and failed leak tests / false alarms (a failure to detect real leaks can also result). Look at the hourly temperature data on the leak test report and retest if the variation is more than a few tenths of a degree. Large changes in product temperature from the start to the end of the test. Water Level changes from the start to the end of the test. Evaporation and loss of product through the vent stack will look exactly like a leak. Evaporation can be a problem during high seasonal temperatures and/or high winds, and when liquid level exposes the greatest surface area for evaporation (half full tanks are worse). Seasonal variations in product composition, size of the tank (larger is worse), and tank vent configuration are also evaporation factors. Tank Deformation -- the tank changes shape after a large product delivery. Tidal Action – in coastal communities, groundwater levels maybe be affected, and, as a result, may deform the tank. During certain times of the day, the tide changes inconsistently. Tank Cross-Talk – level changes in one tank causes a level change in an adjacent tank or compartment. Product is being dispensed during a test.

Steps to Take When a Tank Leak Test FailsLeak tests do occasionally fail and a single failed leak test should not be a cause for great concern. Remember, if the confidence level of the test is 99%, there is a 1% chance that the system will give a false answer.

Caution Don’t excavate/repair a tank because of a single failed leak test. Reference your site policy and procedures plan.

If you fail a leak test, review the leak test report to determine if there is an obvious source of interference with the test (see the Causes of Leak Test Failures section for an example of a Tank Leak Test Report). If such a source of interference is identified, retest the tank as soon as possible. Retest the tank to validate or invalidate the first test result if no source of interference can be identified. If necessary, run several tests.

If repeated tests indicate a leak and no obvious source of interference is found, then immediately have the tank precision/pressure tested. If the precision test confirms the presence of a leak, then the tank owner must take corrective action in accordance with federal, state and local regulations.

WarningThe owner of the tank is legally obligated to comply with reporting and procedural requirements of federal, state and local regulations. These must be followed explicitly. Serious legal, health and safety hazards could result from not taking immediate and proper action. For instances when codes and regulations conflict with this manual, follow the regulations set by governing agencies.

SCALD Tank Leak TestsSCALD (Statistical Continuous Automatic Leak Detection) is optional on Franklin Fueling Systems tank gauges. It runs 24hrs a day and is used to perform 0.2 gph tests on tanks that are always in use.

SCALD works by collecting Quiet Intervals (QIs) in between dispensing. A QI is obtained when a thermally stable tank is idle for 20 minutes with no dispensing, no deliveries and no other movement of the probe floats. Once four QIs are collected, the Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) will analyze the data and either Pass, Fail, Increase or discard that test because the data is not statistically sound. Four QIs can be collected over a period of several days or weeks.

• If the result is a Pass, then a test result of Pass will be generated. • If the result is Fail or Increase, then another test will be run to ensure that this is not a false alarm. Three Failed or

Increase tests in a row will produce a test result of Failed or Increase. • If the data is not statistically sound, then the test is discarded. No new test result will be generated and SCALD

will continue to run. The fact that a result was discarded is recorded and can be seen in the Status number that accompanies the next generated test result.

• On rare occasions certain conditions can arise that can prevent SCALD from getting enough QIs to complete a test.

Reasons Why SCALD Tank Tests may Fail• Temperature

• If a site is receiving deliveries frequently and the temperature of the fuel being delivered is several degrees different then the fuel in the tank, then SCALD will not be able to collect QIs due to thermal instability. The temperature of the fuel can not change more than .01°F during a 20 min QI.

• If a pump control relay is stuck closed and the pump is running all of the time, the temperature in the tank can be much higher than the other tanks. Due to this high temperature and the fact that the pump is running and causing turbulence in the tank, no QIs will be collected.

• No Quiet Time • SCALD needs four 20 minute QIs in order to complete a test. These QIs are normally found in the early

morning hours. If a site is so busy that there are no 20 minute periods of no dispensing, then SCALD will not be able to complete a test.

TS-LS500 Auto Learn Line Leak TestingOverviewA 0.2 gph and a 0.1 gph test line leak tests can be started from the console. Some jurisdictions recommend that a 0.1 gph annual precision line leak test be run yearly. The 0.2 gph test runs automatically on a daily basis. The coarse 3 gph line test runs automatically after every dispense. State and local regulations may require more frequent tests and inspections. Make sure your site personnel are aware of all of the issues and requirements comply with these regulations.

CautionIt is the tank owner’s obligation to comply with the procedures and the reporting requirements of federal, state and local regulations. You are legally bound to follow these explicitly. Where they conflict with this manual, follow the regulations.

Line Leak Test RequirementsCreate adequate quiet time – Prevent and stop all dispensing, on the line to be tested, before and during a test (bag or tape poly over dispenser and dispenser lever).GPH precision tests normally need 4 hours of quiet time (where no dispensing occurs) before the test is started. Usually the test takes 13 minutes to complete. 0.2 GPH monthly tests normally need 13 minutes to 4 hours of quiet time to finish.

When to Force Line Leak TestsTo comply with Federal, State, and local Regulatory Agency requirements.To comply with the policy and procedures of your site.When a leak detection sensor alarms – per policy and procedures at your site.
