rEACt REENABLING OF THE PRINTOUTS AND THE INDICATOR FUNCTIONS (§)

While using the indicator, it is possible to incur in the “no.0.unS” error shown on the display; this means that the printout or the function which one wants to carry out must be renabled (in order to avoid accidental executions). It is possible to set the reenabling in the following modes: “passage of the net weight by zero”, “weigh instability” or “always”.

It is possible to enable the automatic switch off of the indicator (from 1 to 255 minutes), or disable it; the auto switch-off starts working when, with an unloaded scale, the weight has not been moved or a key has been pressed during the set time: the display shows the blinking “- oFF – “ message; then the indicator turns off.

PArAM METRIC PARAMETERS (§)

(§) The parameter is not displayed if the firmware is MASTER type.

(*) StAbiL FILTERING INTEGRATION

By pressing ENTER/PRINT one accesses the selection of the type and degree of filter intervention for the stability of the weight indication:

FLt 0 – 3 filter for simple weighing

doS.0 – 3 filter for dosage

h.r.0 – 7 filter for high resolution dyn.0 – 3 filter for a moving weight SLW.0 – 3 filter for a rather unstable weight hoLd 0 – 5 filter for animal weighing r.AdC 0 – 1 filter for digital cells with fixed request interval r.AdC d – S filter for digital cells with dynamic (d = fast, S = slow) request interval

The higher the filter value, and greater is its intervention relative to the type of filter used.

(!) FLt 3 (*) With approved instrument it is possible to select just the FLt 0–3, h.r.0, h.r.1, dyn.0, dyn.1, SLW.0, SLW.1

parameters.

(*) Auto-0 AUTOZERO AT THE START UP By pressing ENTER/PRINT one chooses whether to enable (EnAb) or disable (diSAb) the automatic acquisition of the gross zero upon start-up. By choosing EnAb, if upon start-up a detected weight is within +/- 10% of the capacity, it is zeroed; if the weight is not within this tolerance, the non approved instrument’s display will show the present weight after a few instants, while an approved instrument will continuously show “ZEro” on the display, until a weight within tolerance is placed.

(!) EnAb (*) With approved instrument the parameter is read-only.

(*) 0.trACk ZERO TRACKING

This menu allows setting the zero tracking, in other words, the compensation parameter of the scale’s thermal drift;

the set value corresponds to the number of divisions that is reset in the fixed time of 1 second. tr. ½ +/- half division. tr. ¼ +/- one fourth of a division tr. 1 +/- one division. tr. 2 +/- two divisions. tr. no tracking disabled.

(!) 2 (*) With approved instrument.

the parameter is read-only.

(*) GrAV. GRAVITY ZONE AND ZONE OF USE (§)

Through this step one selects the acceleration value of calibration and of use of the instrument: Manual entry of the g value: one may manually enter the gravitational acceleration value; one must modify the 6 decimal digits of the gravitational acceleration. In case one enters a wrong g value: the minimum decimal value is suggested (9,75001); a wrong value is any decimal number that is not between 9,75001 and 9,84999 (inclusive).

(!) g = 9,80655 (*) With approved instrument the parameter is read-only. (§) The parameter is not displayed if the firmware is MASTER type.

Pr.ModE TRANSMISSION ON THE PRINTER SERIAL LINE Pr- no transmission not enabled tPr enables the printing with ASCII printer (for example DP190 or TPR). LP542P enables to print with the LP542S labeller.

By confirming the “LP542P” or “tPr” parameter one is asked (through the “dEF.Pr?” message) to set, for the selected printer, the default parameters in the steps of the printer serial port (“bAud.Pr”, “bit.Pr”, “Prn.CtS”) and in the steps of printout configuration (see the description of the “dEFAuL” step in the section “FORMATTING DATA AND LAYOUT”): press ENTER/PRINT to confirm or C to cancel; then the “tESt?” message is displayed: press ENTER/PRINT to execute the printout test or C to cancel (see the description of the “PtESt” step in the section “FORMATTING DATA AND LAYOUT”).

NOTE: The transmission of the standard or extended string upon the pressing of the PRINT key is confirmed by

“trAnSM” on the display. If the “TOTALIZER” mode (horizontal or vertical) is active, the transmission through the

key is carried out by pressing the MODE key.

rEPE.4 transmission to 4-digit remote display.

MEMorY if enabled allows to store the weigh list on the EEPROM

(!) Pr-no

For the protocol and transmission mode specifications, see the sections “SERIAL PORT TRANSMISSION

MODES” and “TRANSMISSION PROTOCOLS”.

bAud.Pr SET BAUD RATE

By pressing the ENTER/PRINT key one accesses the selection of the data transmission speed (measured in

Baud = bit/second). The possible values are: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200.

PWr.Prn PRINTER MANAGEMENT

In this step one programmes the management of a printer (if connected):

PWr.EXt with instrument on, printer managed.

EXt.oFF printer managed; the start-up characters are sent to the printer, because the printer is

considered to be configured in the energy saving mode.

(!) PWr.EXt

on.Prin ENABLING OF PRINTER IN ENERGY SAVING MODE (§)

If in the preceding step the EXt.oFF management is set, by entering this step one turns on the printer in the

energy saving mode (the “onPri” message is blinking on the display).

To exit this step press any button. The enabling may be carried out quickly also during the weighing, by pressing

the ZERO key for a few seconds (except in the REPEATER functioning mode).

(§) The parameter is displayed if “EXt.oFF” has been selected in the “PWr.Prn” step.

Prn.CtS RTS/CTS STATUS CONFIGURATION (§)

Using the fibre optic transmission, it is possible to manage the CTS signal; device (like a printer) that is slow in

processing the data received, can interrupt the transmission by temporarily using this signal.

noCtS no signal

CtSL CTS active low (for LP542P, TPR, DP24 printers)

CtSh CTS active high (for DP190 printers)

EMuCtS emulation of the CTS signal: one is asked to enter the number of characters (nChrS), in 3 digits,

which will be transmitted to the printer upon each transmission; then one needs to enter the waiting time in milliseconds (tiME), in 4 digits, between a transmission and another. The TIME OUT of a printout is a minute, in other words, after a minute that the printout is blocked, it is cancelled.

(!) noCtS

(§) The parameter is not displayed unless “tPr” or “LP542P” has been selected in the “Pr.ModE” step.

Pr.ConF CONFIGURATION OF THE PRINTOUTS (§)

See the section “PROGRAMMING THE PRINTOUTS” section for the description of all the menu’s parameters.

“trAnSM” on the display. If the “TOTALIZER” mode (horizontal or vertical) is active, the transmission through the

key is carried out by pressing the MODE key.

485 transmission with 485 protocol, by confirming with ENTER/PRINT, one is required to enter the

machine code (the message “Ad485” appears for an instant): enter a value between 0 and 98.

r.AdC transmission to digital cells (§) : by confirming with ENTER/PRINT, one is required to enter

the 485 address (the message “Ad485” appears for an instant), then one has to enter the offset

address (“Add.oFF” is displayed for an instant); in this transmission mode it is not possible to

communicate with the PC (for this purpose one has to set temporarily the 485 mode and the instrument has to be in the setup environment).

W.rEPE (§) reception of string from remote scale. (§) The parameter is displayed only if one has selected the

“rEPE” functioning mode in the F.ModE >> FunCt step. By confirming with ENTER/PRINT one is requested to set the following parameters for the management of the remote scale:

tErM REMOTE SCALE TERMINATOR

In this step one enters the decimal ASCII code (up to 2 digits) of the terminator characters of the weight string (I.E. 13 for CR or 10 for LF or 0 for NULL).

(!) 10

WEi.PoS REMOTE SCALE WEIGHT POSITION

In this step one sets the position of the first character of the weight value, in the string transmitted by the remote scale, knowing that the first character on the left of the string has the 00 position. A possible character sign is also part of the weight value. For example, if the received string is hh,kk,pppppppp,uu + CR + LF (see the section “TRANSMISSION PROTOCOLS” for the description of the string),

one should set the 06 value.

It is possible to set up to 2 characters (from 0 to 39).
