INDICATOR MOUNTING

The indicator is easily attached to the Indicator Mounting Bracket by hooking the top over the plate and securing the bottom with two screws and nuts (size# 10 - 24 × 5/8" or M5 × 16mm).

POWER CONNECTION

Warning!

Always disconnect the indicator power cord before “jump starting” or fast charging a battery. Disconnect all indicator leads before welding on equipment. Failure to do so can cause surges which will damage the scale.

The power cable should be connected directly to a vehicle battery or regulated power supply. The scale end of the power cable is attached to the J901 connector located on the bottom panel of the scale.

Connect the RED wire from the power cable to +12VDC and the BLACK wire to GROUND. The indicator is fused internally at 4 amps.

3. Setup and Calibration Requirements

Warning!

This indicator was calibrated at the factory to weigh accurately with your system. Additional calibration is not necessary under normal conditions.

The Short Form Setup & Calibration procedure allows you to change the SETUP and CAL numbers of the indicator. You may want to perform this procedure if:

1. the indicator is being connected to different load cells, or

2. you want to adjust the calibration to match another scale system (chapter 4).

Before continuing, first write down the current SETUP and CAL numbers of your EZ indicator. These numbers are displayed during the Self Test.

TO RUN THE SELF TEST

1. With the indicator already ON, press

to start the Self Test.

2. Press

to "pause" the Self Test while numbers are displayed.

3. Press

again to "resume".

SETUP # CAL #

Do not attempt to calibrate the scale if the indicator is not reading stable weights. The calibration procedure will not fix instability, inconsistencies, or flashing "RANGE" messages.

Digi-Star Model EZ3200/EZ3200V/EZ3200V RC

4. Matching EZ scale to another scale

Sometimes two different scales are used to weigh the same load. When this is done, the weight measured by each scale may not be the same. This can be caused by one or both of the two scales being slightly out of calibration. This indicator has the ability to match any other scale, even if that scale is not calibrated.

To match your EZ scale (Scale A) to another scale (Scale B) you must determine the Calibration Multiplier. To do this, place a load on Scale A (feed wagon, etc...) and write down the weight displayed. Repeat several times to determine the average weight. Next, place the same load on Scale B and again write down the weight displayed.

Repeat several times to determine the average weight. Use the following formula to determine the Calibration Multiplier for the EZ’s "CAL" number:

It is important to use an average of several weights before calibrating the scale.

SCALE MATCHING EXAMPLE

Original SETUP # 127060

CAL# 23980

1 trial 2 trial 3 trial

Scale B

30,000 30,580 28,000

Scale A

29,440 29,800 27,500

1.020 + 1.026 + 1.018 = 3.064

B ÷ A

3.064 ÷ 3 trials = 1.021 Cal. Multiplier

New EZCAL# = Orig. EZCAL# × Cal.Multiplier 24484 = 23980 × 1.021

You should not modify your "SETUP" number. Only your "CAL" number.

5. Getting started

To operate the scale, first attach the scale's power cord to connector J901 and the loadcell cable to connector J902 on the bottom panel of the scale.

Press the

key. A brief message is displayed (such as

HELLO

The scale enters the GROSS mode.

A warm up period of ten to fifteen minutes provides the most accurate readings. If the scale is holding a load for a long period of time (ex. overnight), the weight displayed may vary because of zero shift created by changes in temperature. This does not affect the accuracy of the scale.

For example, if the system was loaded with 1000lbs, it might read 1200lbs the following day. The change in temperature "zero shifted" the ZERO/BALANCE from 0 to 200lbs. When unloading the scale, the display will count from 1200 to 200lbs for a total of 1000lbs.

After this warm up period, press and release

. Then, within three seconds, press

The word

ZERO

is displayed to show completion of the ZERO/BALANCE step.

2. Press

. The indicator will round the preset

amount to the nearest display count size.

3. Add or remove weight. The scale alternates between flashing the word

PRESET

and the preset amount, until 5 percent of the preset weight is either loaded or unloaded.

4. While weight is being added or removed, press to display weight data in Gross Mode or,

press

to display weight data in Load/

Unload Mode.

5. To display weight added since the preset was

entered, press

two times if in Load/Unload

Mode or one time if in Gross Mode.

Once the preset has been entered, the display shows the weight data in one of three different Display Modes:

1. Gross Mode

As ingredients are loaded, the weight display counts upward toward the preset value. As ingredients are unloaded the weight display counts down to the preset value.

2. Load/Unload Mode

Display the amount remaining to be loaded or unloaded. As ingredients are loaded or unloaded, the display counts down from the entered preset weight until it reaches zero.

3. Net Mode

Display the weight added since the preset has been entered. As ingredients are loaded, the weight display counts upward, as they are unloaded the weight display counts down.

Switching between these display modes is possible at any time.

Before the preset weight is reached, the pre-alarm is activated. This causes the preset display annunciator, the front panel alarm light, the output relay, and the alarm horn all to pulse in sequence with the alarm light. A pre-alarm provides an early warning before reaching the preset.

Set the pre-alarm value to 0 (zero) to prevent the alarm output from pulsing. See page 15: To

change the pre-alarm value.

Once the preset weight amount has been added or removed, the scale will activate an alarm. The front panel alarm light, the output relay, the preset display annunciator, and the alarm horn will all be held ON. See page 13: To clear the preset alarm.

PROGRAMMING RECIPES

There are three different methods for programming recipes:

1 - Amount per Animal 2 - Percent (%) per Load 3 - Amount per Load

Recipes programmed in one method will not be converted when a new entry method is selected. To convert a recipe to a new method, erase and then re-program the recipe. See page 20: To change the entry method.

Entry Method #1 - Amount per Animal

Allows entry of ingredient amounts required for feeding one animal. The scale calculates the preset amounts required for each ingredient.

Example:

A recipe had been programmed for 18lbs of haylage and 16lbs of shell corn for one animal. The recipe was then loaded for 100 animals. The scale calculated presets for 1800lbs of haylage and 1600lbs of shell corn.

Entry Method #2 - Percent (%) per Load/Animal.

Allows entry of ingredient amounts in percentages (%).The scale calculates the preset amounts required for each ingredient.

Example:

A recipe had been programmed with 55% of haylage and 45% of shell corn. The recipe was then loaded for a

TOTAM T

of 10,000lbs. The scale calculated presets for 5500lbs of

haylage and 4500lbs of shell corn.

Entry Method #3 - Amount per Load.

Allows entry of ingredient amounts required per load..

Example:

A recipe had been programmed with 5500lbs of haylage and 4500lbs of shell corn. The recipe was then loaded for a

TOTAMT

of 10,000lbs. The scale calculated presets for 5500lbs of haylage and 4500lbs of shell corn. This same recipe could have been changed the

TOTAMT

to 9,000lbs and the scale would have calculated presets for 4950lbs

haylage and 4050lbs of shell corn. See Appendix 2.

6. System operation

USING THE AUTO ADVANCE FEATURE

The auto advance feature allows for hands free operation of programmed recipes. When the auto advance feature is activated, the indicator automatically prints and advances to the next ingredient once the Motion, Tolerance, and Delay Time requirements have been met. Motion, tolerance, and delay time requirements are explained below.

The Tolerance feature is a “tolerance window” for the preset ingredient during batching. For example, if the tolerance is set to 5% and the preset is 1000, the “tolerance window” is ±50. The scale is in the “tolerance window” when the display is between 50 and -50.

The auto-advance circuitry of the recipe function activates the Delay Time counter while the weight is in the tolerance window. The Delay Time allows the operator to slightly "under or over shoot" an ingredient amount and still automatically advance to the next ingredient. The autoadvance circuitry resets the Delay Time counter every time the weight moves out of the tolerance window. If enabled, Motion Detection also resets the Delay Time Counter.

If the tolerance for that ingredient is exceeded, the message

OVER

is displayed alternately with the weight value. If this occurs, the scale will not auto-advance until the excess weight is removed. If the operator determines that the additional weight for that ingredient is acceptable, pressing

will advance to the next ingredient.

If the tolerance is set to

OFF

, the scale will always auto-advance after the ingredient amount has

been loaded regardless of any additional weight.

TO CHANGE THE TOLERANCE

1. Go to Menu 4 of the Long Form Setup and choose

TOLER

(see page 14: To enter the Long

Form Setup).

2. Press

to choose the amount (by

percentage) that an ingredient can be under/over-loaded and still automatically advance.

Tolerance Percentage Settings

4. Press and hold

and then press to

return to normal Weighing Mode.

6. System operation

USING DELAY TIME

The Delay Time Feature allows an operator to select the amount of time the scale should wait before automatically advancing to the next ingredient of the recipe. This helps insure accuracy for the ingredient amount. For example, if the delay time is set to 10 (seconds) and the preset alarms are activated continuously, the auto-advance circuitry starts the Delay time Counter. If the preset de-activates, the delay time counter is reset, therefore assuring that the preset weight amount has to be met for the total delay time amount.

Setting Delay Time to

MANUAL

prevents the scale from EVER auto-advancing, regardless of the

weight.

If loading a batch using a recipe,

must be pressed twice to advance the recipe to the

next ingredient. See page 25: To load a batch using a recipe.

TO CHANGE THE DELAY TIME

1. Go to Menu 4 of the Long Form Setup and select

BLACK OUT

The Clock Option is required as part of the Black Out option. The Clock records the time, date, and preset remaining before the power outage (blackout).

The Black Out option is a preset enhancement that maintains the “preset amount left to go” in non-volatile, permanent memory. This insures that the correct weight can be delivered even after a power outage.

For example, a system loaded with 2000 lbs unloads a preset of 100 lbs. After unloading the first 500 lbs, a power outage occurs. When the power is restored and the scale turned back On, the message

POWER OUTAGE – PRESS START ON CONTROL BOX TO FINISH PRESET – CLEAR TO CANCEL MO/DA/UR 12:00A.

At this time, press START on the control box (or press the NET/GROSS key on the indicator). This loads the preset amount remaining before the black out (500 lbs in this example).

Pressing

cancels the preset and the scale displays the GROSS weight.

7. Optional features

PULSED OUTPUT

The Clock Option is required as part of the Pulsed Output option.

The Pulsed Output option provides one output line to indicate decreasing weight.

Pulsed Output pulls the connected signal line to ground through a 330 Ohm resistor for 150 milliseconds every time the scale decreases one display count.

1 Display Count = 1 Output Pulse

The scale will not pull the line to ground more than twice (2 times) a second – 2 Hz.

For example, if the weight decreased from 8000 lbs to 7500 lbs, using a display count of 10 lb counts:

8000-7500=500 (lbs weight change) 500/10 (Display Count) = 50 Pulses

There would be 50 output pulses taking about 25 seconds to output all 50 pulses. In this example, 7500 lbs represents the Gross Weight Reference Point. The scale resets the Gross Weight Reference Point if the weight increases 100 or more pounds for at least one(1) minute. The scale starts pulsing outputs as weight decreases from the new Gross Weight Reference Point.

There are two (2) ways to “reset” or “abort” the internal pulse counter of the scale. Either Zero Balance the scale or turn the scale OFF and back On again then press the [ZERO] key when the scale shows the power outage message.

The Clock records the time, date, and Gross Weight Reference Point before the power outage. When power is restored, the scale will display the message

POWER OUTAGE – PRESS NET/GROSS TO CONTINUE

PULSED OUTPUT – ZERO TO RESET MO/DA/YR 12:00A.

This provides the opportunity to start other equipment

in the proper sequence.
