4.7 AC<strong>iC</strong> Operating Parameters<br />
The following is a description of all operating parameters in the KDT Menu. boxed<br />
numbers shown next to the parameter are the Hotkey numbers. Also note that all time settings<br />
are in HRS: MIN: SEC format.<br />
4.7.1 F1 <strong>–</strong> Set Times<br />
01 FAST TIME: This time setting creates the Fast Window. From the start of the On Time to the Fast<br />
Time value is the Fast Window. A plunger arrival time less than the Fast Time would be in the<br />
Fast Window. A good place to start in establishing a Fast Time is by dividing the depth of the<br />
tubing by 800. This value sets the low limit of the Good Window.<br />
02 SLOW TIME: This time setting creates the Slow Window. From the Slow Time value to the end of<br />
the On Time value is the Slow Window. A plunger arrival time greater than the Slow Time<br />
would be in the Slow Window. A good place to start in establishing a Slow Time is by dividing<br />
the depth of the tubing by 600. This value sets the upper limit of the Good Window.<br />
03 TBG ON: This is the maximum amount of time you want the well to stay on waiting for the<br />
plunger to arrive at the surface. A good place to start in establishing an On Time is by dividing<br />
the depth of the tubing by 400. This value sets the upper limit of the Slow Window.<br />
04 TBG OFF: This is the total amount of time you want the well to stay off or shut in. The Controller<br />
can change the Off Time as cycles progress. The Controller will not accept Off Time lower than<br />
the Minimum Off Time or higher than the Maximum Off Time.<br />
05 MIN OFF: This is the lowest value the Off Time can be reduced. This feature is to ensure the<br />
plunger has enough time to reach the bottom of the tubing before another cycle begins. A<br />
good place to start in establishing a Minimum Off Time is by dividing the depth of the tubing by<br />
200.<br />
26 MAX OFF: This is the highest value the Off Time can be increased due to plunger adjustments.<br />
