SITE PREPARATION

Environmental

The Model 225 Weight Indicator meets or exceeds all certification requirements within a temperature range of 14 to 104 °F (-10 to +40 °C).

In order to keep cooling requirements to a minimum, the indicator should be placed out of direct sunlight and to provide adequate air circulation, keep the area around the indicator clear.

Make certain the indicator is not directly in front of a heating or cooling vent. Such a location will subject the indicator to sudden temperature changes, which may result in unstable weight readings.

Insure that the indicator has good, clean AC power and is properly grounded. In areas subject to lightning strikes, additional protection to minimize lightning damage, such as surge suppressors, should be installed.

8200-M538-O1 y 225 Installation

Page 6

SITE PREPARATION, CONT.

The Model 225 Weight Indicator is a precision weight-measuring instrument. As with any precision instrument, it requires an acceptable environment to operate at its peak performance and reliability. This section is provided to assist you in obtaining such an environment.

Electrical Power

The 225 has been designed to operate from 90 to 264 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Note that a special order is UnotU required for operation at 230 VAC.

CAUTION! - To avoid electrical hazard and possible damage to the indicator, DO NOT, under any circumstance, cut, remove, alter, or in any way bypass the power cord grounding prong.

On installations requiring 230 VAC power, it is the responsibility of the customer to have a qualified electrician install the proper power cord plug which conforms to national electrical codes and local codes and ordinances.

The power outlet for the indicator should be on a separate circuit from the distribution panel. This circuit should be dedicated to the exclusive use of the indicator. The wiring should conform to national and local electrical codes and ordinances and should be approved by the local inspector to assure compliance.

To prevent electrical noise interference, make certain all other wall outlets for use with air conditioning and heating equipment, lighting or other equipment with heavily inductive loads, such as welders, motors and solenoids are on circuits separate from the indicator. Many of these disturbances originate within the building itself and can seriously affect the operation of the instrument. These sources of disturbances must be identified and steps must be taken to prevent possible adverse effects on the instrument. Examples of available alternatives include isolation transformers, power regulators, uninterruptible power supplies, or simple line filters.

Transient Suppression

The following recommendations will help to reduce transients:

yAlways use shielded cables to connect signal wires to the weight indicator.

ySecure the cables in the cable clips provided inside the indicator.

yConnect the cable shield (indicator end only) to a ground point inside the indicator.

Keep wires that extend beyond the shield as short as possible.

yDo not run load cell or signal cables from the weight indicator along side or parallel to wiring carrying AC power. If unavoidable, position the load cell and signal cables a minimum of 24" away from all AC wiring.

yAlways use arc suppressors across all AC power relay contacts (see recommendations at HUhttp://www.paktron.com/pdf/Quencharch_QRL.pdfUH).

yUse zero voltage switching relays, optically isolated if possible.

INSTALLATION

Before beginning installation of your Model 225 Weight Indicator, make certain that it has been received in good condition. Carefully remove it from the shipping carton and inspect it for any evidence of damage (such as exterior dents or scratches) that may have taken place during shipment. Keep the carton and packing material for return shipment if it should become necessary. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to file all claims for any damages or loss incurred during transit.

Mounting the 225

NOTE! If your 225 indicator is already installed on a scale, the following information describing its installation does not apply.

The Model 225 Indicator is housed in a NEMA 4X/IP66 stainless steel wall or desk-mount enclosure. The 225 gimbal may be mounted on a desk, table or other smooth, flat, horizontal surface or may be mounted on a wall. Refer to Figure No. 1 for a layout of wall-mounting.

Figure No. 1

Clearance for #10 size screw

If wall mounted, make certain the mounting surface is strong enough to support the instrument.

The mounting location should be where the display is easily viewed while being close enough to provide the operator easy access to the keypad. Carefully lay out the mounting hole locations, then drill and install the anchor bolts. Attach the gimbal to the wall and securely tighten the retaining bolts.

MAIN PC BOARD, CONT.

J1 (AUTO ON) – AUTO-ON JUMPER

When installed, this jumper will cause the indicator to power on automatically whenever power is applied to the power input connector. If power is lost momentarily and then reapplied, the indicator will turn on without pressing the ON key.

J2 (TEST) – TEST JUMPER

When installed, this jumper will turn the backlight on, ignoring the BACK LITE= setting.

J3 (8V) – 8V EXCITATION JUMPER

When installed, this jumper allows the 225 indicator to supply 8 VDC excitation voltage when a remote (external) 12 VDC battery is used to power the indicator. To operate from the 12 VDC battery, the load cell excitation voltage MUST be set to 8 VDC (J3 closed). Operating with the load cell excitation voltage set to 12 VDC will result in an unstable weight display.

J4 (PWC1-8) and J5 (PWC9-16) – ACTIVE REMOTE OUT JUMPERS

When installed, these jumpers allow the 225 indicator to supply (source) 5 VDC to a solid-state relay or other load of 200 ohms or greater. To operate from the 5 VDC source, the positive connection from the relays must be connected to P15 (P16) pins 2 through 9 and the negative wire from the relays to P15 (P16) pin 10 (GND). See Figure No. 9 for connector P15 location and Figure No. 10 for connector P16 location.

For completely isolated outputs, J4 (J5) must be open (on one pin only or removed) and the user must provide 5 to 12 VDC to P15 (P16) pin 1 (+SRC) and a ground return to the load. The load must still be 200 ohms or greater and P15 (P16) pin 10 (GND) is not connected.

J6 (REMOTE IN) – REMOTE IN JUMPER

When installed, this jumper allows the 225 indicator to supply (source) 5 VDC to a remote input circuit. Connecting P17 pins 1 through 9 to P17 pin 10 (GND) through a switch will cause the selected action. See Figure No. 8 for connector P17 location.

For completely isolated inputs, J6 must be open (on one pin only or removed) and the user must provide 5 to 12 VDC to P17 pin 1 (+SRC) and a ground return to the switch connected to P17 pin 2 through 9. Note that P17 pin 10 (GND) is not connected.

J7 (+SEN) and J9 (-SEN) – SENSE JUMPERS

If the sense leads are NOT used, you must install jumpers at J7 and J9 (near the P13 and P14 terminal blocks). These jumpers connect the sense leads to the excitation leads. If sense leads ARE used (as in motor truck scales), these jumpers should be open (on one pin only or removed).

J8 (DLB) – DEAD LOAD BOOST JUMPER

For very low dead loads (less than 10% of the combined load cell capacity) connect J8, the DLB (dead load boost) jumper on the printed circuit board.

J10 (GTC) – GND TO CHASSIS JUMPER

When installed, this jumper connects the analog circuit ground to the indicator chassis ground.

TARE KEY

This key is a dual function key. Pressing the TARE key alone (Pushbutton Tare mode) will cause the current gross weight to be stored as the new tare weight and cause the weight display to change to the net weight display mode (NET will be shown on right side of display). Pressing this key after entering a numeric value (Keypad Tare) will cause the value entered to be accepted as the new tare weight.

NOTE: Tare weights equal to or greater than scale capacity cannot be entered. In addition, the keypad tare weight division value must be the same as the scale division value. For example, a unit with .005 lb as the division value will display ERROR if you attempt to enter 1.003 for the tare weight.

NET/GROSS KEY

This key is used to toggle between the Net and Gross weight mode. The selected mode is indicated by showing G for Gross weight or NET for Net weight on the display. Note that the display will show an error (-NO TARE-) and the indicator will remain in the Gross weight mode if the key is pressed and valid tare weight has not been entered.

UNITS KEY

Pressing this key will change the weighing units to the alternate units if selected during the calibration and setup of the indicator. The available units of measure (BASE UNITS= and CNVT UNITS=) are enabled or disabled in calibration and setup. The available units include tons, pounds only, ounces, tonnes (metric tons), kilograms, grams and custom. Note that not all combinations are supported.

ACCUM KEY

This key is used to display the contents of the 32 ID accumulators, the total Gross and Net weight accumulators, the 200 ID storage accumulators, the Batcher bin accumulators and the Count Function piece count accumulators. Note that the Total Gross, Total Net and

Count accumulators are updated with every print command. Refer to the NET/GROSS

ACCUMULATORS, ID STORAGE OPERATION (ID ACCUMULATORS) OR COUNT OPERATION sections of this manual for more information.

TIME/DATE KEY

This key is used to program the time, date and consecutive number. Refer to the TIME, DATE AND CONSECUTIVE NUMBER section of this manual more information.

Alpha-Numeric Keys

The alpha-numeric keys are used to enter commands and data into the indicator during Calibration and Setup as well as during normal operations.

NUMERIC KEYS (1 to 9 and 0)

These keys are used to enter numeric data during the setup and calibration as well as during normal operation of the indicator. Note that they have alternate meanings. In the alphanumeric mode, when combined with the SHIFT key, their alternate meaning is output.

For example, pressing the SHIFT key and then the 4 key will output the $ dollar sign.

/ESC KEY

This key has several functions. During Setup, when a setup parameter is displayed, pressing this key will "backup" to the previous selection. Also note that on prompts requiring a value to be entered, pressing the /ESC key will clear the value.

In normal operation, this key is used during numeric data input to delete a number entered. If the last number entered is incorrect, press the /ESC key once to deleted the number.

If more than the last number is incorrect, press the /ESC key for each number to be deleted. Note that if a number has not been entered, the indicator will ignore this key.

QWERTY KEYS

These keys are used to enter alpha data during Calibration and Setup as well as during normal operations. Pressing the SHIFT key before pressing an alpha key will toggle the key to output its alternate meaning. For example, pressing the SHIFT key then the A key will output a lower case “a” (not a capital letter).

ENTER KEY

The ENTER key serves several purposes. During Calibration and Setup (as well as during normal operations), pressing the key will retain the current setting and return the display to the menu display. It is also used when entering or changing data to signal the completion of data entry. The data entered will then be processed or saved.

During normal operations it is used in combination with the SHIFT key to increase the LCD contrast.

SPACE

This key is used to enter a blank space during alpha-numeric data input for Calibration and Setup as well as during normal operations. When combined with the SHIFT key, it is used to decrease the display contrast.

SHIFT

This key is used for several functions. It is used in combination with the Navigation ENTER key (red square key in center of the Navigation arrows) to enter the Calibration and Setup mode.

During Calibration and Setup (as well as during normal operations), pressing the key before pressing an alpha-numeric key will toggle the key to output its alternate meaning. For example, when combined with an alphabetic key, the SHIFT key causes a lower case letter

(not a capital letter) to be output.

Shift Key Combinations

SHIFT, ESC, ACCUM KEY

The 225 will retain and display on command the maximum weight value measured since the indicator has begun operation or since the maximum value was last cleared. The maximum value is displayed by pressing the SHIFT key, the ESC key and then the ACCUM key when the display is showing the FUNCTION= prompt. Press the ENTER key to exit and return to normal operation.

SHIFT, ESC, PRINT KEY

This combination is used to change the selected print ticket format. Pressing the SHIFT key, the ESC key and then the PRINT key when the display is showing the FUNCTION= prompt. The display will change to show PRINT=X. Note that X is the current ticket format selected.

If the setting displayed is acceptable, press the ENTER key to exit and return to normal operation. Otherwise, using the numeric keys enter the new value for the ticket format and then press the ENTER key to exit and return to normal operation.
