Using the Dynagraph Control in Run Mode

Note: Configuration settings may be made in Run mode for this tool. However, such settings typically do not persist beyond the active runtime session. Once you close the CygNet Studio screen on which the tool resides, the tool's settings may revert to those originally configured in Edit mode.

The CygNet Dynagraph Control has several Run mode options that are accessed in various ways. You can use the context menu, Pump-Off Configuration dialog box, or double-click any load-position pair point on the slope or double-click the relevant entry in the card key to open card details for the displayed rod pump cycle.

See the following subsections for more information:

Option	Description
Select Site/Service	Click to select the relevant Site.UIS combination from which to retrieve dynagraph data.
Select Facility	Click to select the relevant facility from which to retrieve dynagraph data. Doing so opens the Choose Pump-Off Control Facility dialog box, which displays all dynagraph-enabled device facilities for the selected Site.UIS combination.
View	The View option includes the following options: Details Panel: Check to display a table of rod pump details on the left of the control. For a list of relevant UDCs required to fully configure this feature, see Details Panel UDCs. Mark Points: Check to display load-pair points along the pump-cycle line. Net Stroke:Check to show a vertical white line that marks a calculated net stroke on a downhole card. Fluid Fill Setpoint: Check to display a horizontal white line on a surface card that marks the fluid fill as well as the point at which fluid fill begins to occur. This option is not available for all remote device types. Initial Cards for Device: Check to open an Initial Cards dialog box that enables you to choose which card(s) you want to display upon starting a new control session. Overlay Cards: Check to overlay cards on top of one another. This enables you to compare different rod pump cycles from the same card type at once. Otherwise, only one selected card can be viewed at a time. Clear Cards: Clears all displayed cards from the control. You must use Get from Device or otherwise restart to repopulate the grid with card data. Select Card Set: Check to open a Choose Cards to View dialog box that enables you to choose from a list of previously retrieved cards. Max Cards to Display: Check to open an Enter Value dialog box that enables you to set the maximum number of cards that can be displayed on a control. Option must be an integer from 5 to 50. If you exceed the user-defined maximum, existing card(s) are removed from the control to accommodate the new card(s). Surface Cards Only: Check to limit the card view to only surface card(s). Downhole Cards Only: Check to limit the card view to only downhole card(s). Surface and Downhole: Check to display both surface and downhole cards on the same control. Intuitively, the surface card displays above the downhole card in Run mode. Filter Cards: Enables you to filter downhole cards based on relevant calculation type(s) used in a single transaction. Options only appear if they are valid for the specified transaction. Options are as follows: Device, Everett-Jennings, and Gibbs. Click Clear Filters to remove any filtering applied. This results in the display of all available card types.
Print	Enables you to print the selected card(s).
Card Details	Opens the Dynagraph Card Details dialog box where you can view data relevant to the currently selected card, including load position pairs. This data derives from the relevant remote device in the Device Definition Service (DDS).
Save As Reference	Opens the Save as Reference Card dialog box where you can specify a description of the currently selected card and save it for future reference. Once saved, the card can be accessed by means of the Choose Cards to View dialog box.
Export Card	Opens the Export "Dynagraph Card n" dialog box where you can select one of three export file formats by which to export the currently selected card. The file format previews in the File Format Description field.
Remove Card	Removes the currently selected card from the available set. (The currently selected card is visually represented by the thickest slope on the grid or on the card key.Click on a slope to select it.)
Get from Device	The Get from Device option includes the following options: Status Data: Gets the latest status data from the associated remote device. Affects the details panel. (See the relevant remote device "Status Data" data group for more information.) Pumpoff Config: Gets the latest pump-off configuration from the associated remote device. Doing so overwrites the pump-off configuration set at the CygNet Dynagraph Control. (See the relevant remote device "Pumpoff Configuration" data group for more information.) Fluid Fill Setpoint: Gets the fluid fill setpoint from the associated remote device and displays a horizontal white line on a surface card that marks the fluid fill setpoint. This option is not available for all remote device types. (See the relevant remote device fluid configuration data group for more information.) Current Card: Gets the current card from the associated remote device. You can specify which card(s) from the available set to view. Shutdown Card: Gets the shutdown card from the associated remote device. You can specify which card(s) from the available set to view. Pumpup Card: Gets the pump-up card from the associated remote device. Reference Card: Gets the reference card from the associated remote device, if one is available. Start Card: Gets the start card from the associated remote device. Alarm Card: Gets the alarm card from the associated remote device, if one is available. Failure Card: Gets the failure card from the associated remote device, if one is available.
Edit Data	The Edit Data option includes the following options: Pumpoff Config: Opens the Pump-Off Configuration dialog box where you can edit pump-off data and send it to the associated RTU. Doing so overwrites the pump-off configuration defined in the remote device. Fluid Fill Setpoint: Opens the Fluid Fill Setpoint (%) dialog box where you can edit fluid fill data and send it to the associated remote device. Doing so overwrites the fluid fill configuration defined in the remote device. This option is not available for all remote device types.

Fluid Fill Setpoint: One-time refresh of fluid fill setpoint. Cards: One-time refresh of displayed cards. Auto Refresh Status: Enables you to automatically refresh status data on a defined interval. (See the relevant remote device "Status Data" data group for more information.) Auto Refresh Cards: Enables you to automatically refresh card data on a defined interval.
Send to Device	The Send to Device option includes the following options: Pumpoff Config: Enables you to immediately send pump-off configuration from the dynagraph card to the associated remote device. Clicking this option overwrites the pump-off configuration defined in the remote device. See Edit Data above. Fluid Fill Setpoint: Enables you to immediately send a fluid fill setpoint from the dynagraph card to the associated remote device. Clicking this option overwrites the fluid fill configuration defined in the remote device. See Edit Data above.
Card Trace	The Card Trace option includes the following options: Start/Stop Trace: Start or stops a card trace. The card trace option enables you to configure the control to poll current cards at the specified interval for a specified duration. Setup: Opens the Card Trace Setup dialog box, where you can define the rate and duration of the card trace.

To Edit the Pump-Off Configuration

In Run mode locate the POC point on the relevant surface card and drag it to the load and position coordinates where pump-off control should occur.
Open the Pump-Off Configuration dialog box in one of two ways:
- Double-click the POC point on your surface card.
- Right-click the relevant dynagraph card, select Edit Data, then click Pumpoff Config.
In the Pump-Off Configuration dialog box that appears, make settings edits as you require. (Pumpoff Setpoint Load and Pumpoff Setpoint Position reflect the location of the drag in step 1. You can overwrite them in the dialog box.)

Pump-Off Configuration

Optional: Click OK to save settings changes and run them on the relevant card. Clicking OK does not send the new settings to the remote device. If you want to send these settings to the RTU at a later time, click OK now, then right-click the relevant dynagraph card, select Send to Device, then click Pumpoff Config.
Optional: Click Send to RTU to save settings changes and send them to the RTU, where they will overwrite existing POC settings.

Card and Slope Identifiers

Dynagraph cards and their slopes are identified in various ways. Cards are displayed by abbreviation and slope color in the card key to the right or bottom of cards. Uniform slope colors represent device-specific well states, which are mapped to the device driver.

Card Abbreviations

The following table lists and describes all alphabetical card abbreviations.

C	Current Card
S	Shutdown Card
P	Pump-up Card
R	Reference Card
T	Start Card
I	Ideal Card

Numbers are added to these letters when appropriate. Numbers next to current cards and shutdown cards relate to the number of these cards requested in one command. If only one card is requested, a 1 is appended to the identifying letter. If a card is part of a requested set, a card is identified by its number relative to the number of cards in the set (for instance 1/5).

An "*" next to a card key entry indicates that there are no data points for that card.

Slope Colors

The following tables lists and describes all available slope colors.

Category	Color
Alarm		Red
Alert		Yellow
Pump-up		Green
Normal		White
Pump-off		Turquoise
Control other than RTU		Magenta
Runtime violation		Blue
Unable to determine		Gray
