2 Application Procedures
App Access
Field App
The SCS Connect Field app gives authorised service technicians wireless access to the
controller from mobile devices with Bluetooth capability. The app provides data logging, alarm
notification, and control over inputs (e.g. probes and switches) and outputs (e.g. relays).
App
Categories Various options are available in the app menu which provide information about the connected
controller and its cabinet. Depending on user access level, some menu options may not be
available.
Home Screen The home screen shows a graphic representation of the current state of the cabinet being
controlled.
Procedure 1: To access an app
1. Download and install the Connect Field app:
•SCS Connect Field App
For SCS Connect Field app installation, see Quick Start Guide PRN80176.
•SCS Connect Track App
For SCS Connect Track app installation, see Quick Start Guide PRN80177.
2. Open the required app on your smart device.

Application Procedures
Technicians’ Manual
Note: Only inputs connected to, or components directly controlled by, the SCS Connect
controller will be displayed upon the Home Screen. For example, if the condenser fan is
directly driven from the compressor then the condenser fan icon will not be displayed on the
home screen.
Events (Alarms or Faults) can be accessed directly from
the home screen. This allows you to view details about
the fault, as well as the history of the recorded faults.
Tap on any component showing the small yellow triangle
symbol to view the current event.
From the details screen you can see the possible cause,
along with a current reading and any parameters that may
be related to the fault.
You can view the event history for that component by
tapping the yellow triangle beside Event History.
App Menu The menu (three horizontal bars on the top right hand side) provides access to the first level
of the app’s functions.

8Application Procedures
Technicians’ Manual
SKOPE SCS Connect Electronic Controller
Output Control Displays real time data when connected to the cabinet by allowing real
time interaction with both inputs (probes, switches) and outputs
(relays, pulse width modulation (PWM)).
Note: Any selected output changes override any priorities in the
controller, but are limited to 2 minutes before resetting to their
previous status.
You can add or remove inputs or outputs via the + button. This will add
or remove a trace line from the live chart.
Only relays that are being used can be switched.
If the fan motor is a controlled speed motor, operating speeds are
shown. A negative number shows counterclockwise rotation.
Edit
Parameters Parameters are arranged in categories to help with navigation. Drop-down boxes give lists of
available parameters – scroll up and down for the complete list.
Only parameters needed to operate the cabinet will be visible. These may differ between
cabinet types.
Each category contains the parameters associated with that mode.
Updates are not applied until you disconnect from the controller.
CAUTION
Do NOT switch the compressor on and off without allowing
pressure to equalise in between. Switching on and off may cause
permanent damage to the compressor, leading to failure.

Application Procedures
Technicians’ Manual
When a parameter is selected, a new screen opens allowing you to modify the parameter.
Load
Parameters You can download the SKOPE factory parameters files stored in the cloud using the Field
App when you are:

• trying to diagnose a fault and you think that the parameters may have been corrupted or
modified.
To ensure that you have the most recent parameters file SKOPE recommends you always
download the latest release from the cloud.
If you are going to a location without a data connection, follow Procedure 3 before you travel.
Procedure 2: To change a parameter
1. Select the parameter.
2. Make the adjustments, using the slider, or the - and + buttons.
3. Save the using the Enter button within the newly opened screen.
The maximum and minimum allowances for each parameter are shown, along with a Default

•the original setting.
•the new setting.
•reasons why the change was made.
5. To apply the updates, disconnect from the controller.
