-The DE-4000 is a web-enabled smart device. It can be configured via the HMI or in a web browser on a standard laptop computer. Another option is to use the Virtual DE to configure the DE-4000 system. The virtual DE is a web-based tool that can be accessed from anywhere that an Internet connection is available. The virtual DE can be used to configure the DE-4000 for the application. The virtual DE allows the user to create a configuration file without physically connecting to the DE-4000 hardware. A configuration file is generated and can be downloaded to the laptop. The file can also be uploaded to the physical DE-4000 System. The Virtual DE can be accessed at the following URL: http://altronicvms.hoerbiger.com. Instructions for accessing the virtual DE can be found on the Altronic website at http://altronic-llc.com/catalogdownloads.shtml, under section “Instruments & Controllers”, click on “Annunciators/Controllers” and scroll to DE-4000 Virtual DE 4-19: Virtual DE Log-on Instructions.

 This manual is organized with a quick start guide, a navigation and layout description, system conventions used throughout the manual, a thorough description for each configuration and application menu in order of the menu structure, and ends with how to import and export a configuration file. This manual is a general configuration/programming manual. It does not provide documentation for every possible solution due to variations in applications and equipment at each location. This manual is organized with a quick start guide, a navigation and layout description, system conventions used throughout the manual, a thorough description for each configuration and application menu in order of the menu structure, and ends with how to import and export a configuration file.
