G. Power-UpTest
Upon instrument power-up the H90-5200-A will perform the following tests:
1.RAM Test - The RAM test verifies the operation of the processors external memory device.
2.Display Test - The display will perform a warm-up sequence. This routine is designed to test that all display segment lines, digit lines, and annunciator
LEDs, have no defects. This is a passive test and the user must observe the display throughout the test to check for any anomalies.
3.EEPROM Read -The processor will attempt to retrieve the stored scale programming data from the EEPROM. This data includes: deadload and span counts, grad size, capacity, security level, etc.
If the processor detects any out-of-range data, it will repeatedly request data from the EEPROM until the retrieved data is deemed valid. During this period, the display will flash “EE Err.”
Very often the problem is with the data itself and not the actual hardware. The two most common causes are as follows:
a. A replacement board has just be installed in the instrument and this is a first-time power-up. Thus, the current EEPROM data might not be appropriate for the software in use.
b.You are using a new (or different) software program or revision level than used at the previous instrument power down. This result is that the new software might be trying to access data from the wrong areas of memory.

SECTION 2:
PROGRAMMING
A. Security Code “S.Code” Operation
If the security code is programmed with a value other than zero, the display will indicate “S.COdE” when accessing the front panel programming. The operator must enter the security code through the keypad and then press ENTER. The entered keys will then be compared to the security code. If the correct security code has been entered, the display will enter the appropriate programming routine, otherwise the instrument will return to the weigh mode.
B. Programming Operating Parameters
When in the program mode, the value displayed at each step is the value currently stored in the program. When in the programming mode, if a key is not pressed within one minute, the instrument will time out and return to the weigh mode Some of the keys and switches have special functions in the program mode.
These functions are defined as follows:
The ENTER key is used to store the displayed value in memory and advance to the next program step.
The UP or DOWN arrow keys or the numeric keypad (0-9) can be used to change the displayed value.
The GROSS / NET key can be used to immediately exit from most programming menus.
To program the operating parameters, press the calibrations switch, SW3, located on the main PC Board next to the load cell terminal block (standard programming), once, or press FUNC 7 (front panel programming).
1. Program Steps
NOTE: If the programming mode is entered by pressing the SW3 switch, all of the following programming steps can be changed. If the programming mode is entered via the front panel, some steps may not be able to be changed
depending on the scales security level (selected in Step 15).
2. Program Number Display
This display will show the program number and revision level (P294X). This information should be recorded for reference should any problems arise with the operation of the scale. This is a nonprogrammable step.
50515 |

Issue #2 4/04 |
3. Weight Units Selection
The display will read “ U “, and one or more of the units indicator lights may be ON.
The lighted indicator(s) show the current selection(s). Units of lb,kg, lb/kg or custom
(no units indicated) can be selected, depending on the operators requirements. Custom or “no” units are not front panel selectable
a. Primary Weight Unit Selection
This program step will only appear if lb/kg was selected in step 2. The display will read “ PU “ and ONE of the units indicator lights will be ON. The light indicates the primary weight unit. The primary weight unit is the weight unit
the scale is calibrated in and the units the scale will start in when it is powered up.
4. Grad Size Selection
This display will read “GSxxxx”, where the “xxxx” is the grad size. The grad size displayed is for the primary units selected in program step 2a. Grad sizes for other weight units are dependent on the primary unit grad size and are not independently programmable.
Grad sizes from 0.0001 to 50 can be selected. If an unacceptable grad size is selected, an error message “ElL” or “E1H” will be displayed. A grad size is unacceptable IF The number of divisions for any weight unit is less than 100 or more than 10,000 (number of divisions = capacity/grad size). These error messages and inhibits will only be displayed when programming through the front panel.
5. Balance / Motion Band Selection
The display will read “bALx.x”, where “x.x” is the width of the motion band in divisions, “0.5,1.0, 2.0 or 3.0”. If the current A/D reading exceeds the digitally filtered output by more than the motion band for 1/2 second, there is “motion” on the scale and the instrument will switch to the fast filter mode, where the display tracks the input.
If there is “motion” on the scale, zero, autotare and print operations are inhibited until “motion” stops.
6. AUTOZERO Tracking (AZT) Selection
The display will read “AO x.x”, where the “x.x” is the width of the AZT band in divisions. AZT enables the instrument to automatically zero off small changes in the zero balance of the scale. For an AZT to occur, the weight must be within the AZT band for a time defined by AZTD (see 7. Auto Zero Time Delay).
7. Auto Zero Time Delay
The display will read “AOtd x”, where x is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. The Auto Zero Time
Delay is the number of seconds that the weight must be stable in the AZT band before an Auto Zero operation will take place. AZTD will not be offered unless
AZT was enabled in the previous step.
50515 |
13 |
Issue #2 4/04 |
8. Zero Limit Selection
The display will read “OL xxx”, where the “xxx” is 100 or 2. The Zero Limit controls the weight range over which the zero switch will operate. The weight range is either 100% or +/- 2% of the scale capacity.
9. AUTO TARE Selection
The display will read “AtArEx”, where the “x” will be a 1 or a 0. The “1” indicates the AUTOTARE key is enabled and the “0” indicates disabled.
10. Keyboard Tare Selection
The display will read “tArE x”, where “x” will be a 1 or a 0. The “1” indicates the keyboard tare is enabled and the “0” indicates the keyboard tare is disabled.
11. Display Update Rate Selection
The display will read “SECx.x”, where the “x.x” represents the update rate in seconds. The rates available are 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.8, and 1.0.
12. Digital Filter Selection
The display will read “FF x”, where the “x” is the digital filter factor. The available values are 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4. A “0” will disable the filter, a “1” will give a minimum amount of filtering, and a “4” will give the maximum amount of filtering. The digital filter is used to stabilize the weight display, when it behaves erratically due to low signal levels or unstable weight on the platform. The more filtering, the more stable the display will be.
NOTE: When using the remote display accessory, the update rate must be 0.5 seconds or greater.
13. Scale ID Selection
The display will read “id xxx” where “xxx” is the scale ID number used for polled computer serial interface. If the computer polled with ID option is not used, ID should be set to “0”. If the computer polled with ID option is used, any number from 1 to 255 may be entered.
14. Time/Date Format Selection
The display will read “tdxxyy”, where “xxyy” is the format used to display and print time (xx) and date (yy). The options available are “12” or “24” hour clock for time and “US” (mo/day/yr) or “id” International date (day/mo/yr).
15. Security Code Selection
The display will read “S.COdE” to indicate the security code selection step. The current security code is not shown. The security code is used to limit access to front panel programming. A security code up to 6 digits long may be used. A security code of “0” enables free access to all front panel programming.
50515 |
14 |
Issue #2 4/04 |
16. Security Level Selection
The display will read “SL x”, where “x” is a “0”, “1”, or “2”. The “0” enables full programming capability from the front panel for non-commercial applications.
The “1” enables limited front panel programming for commercial applications. The “2” disables all front panel programming for commercial applications.
CAUTION:
a. If Security Level “1”, or “2 “ is selected at this step, Security Level “0” CANNOT be selected at a later time from the front panel. Be sure of your selection
before you continue
b. If Security Level “1” is selected, program steps 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 14 and 15 cannot be changed from the front panel.
c. If Security Level “2” is selected, NO parameters can be changed from the front panel
d. Security Level must be set to “1” or “2 “for commercial applications. If the Security Level is set for “0”, the instrument is NOT considered “LEGAL FOR TRADE”, therefore the Security Level should be set for “1 “ or “2” for any
commercial application.
17. Inhibit Switch Selection
The display will read “inhS x”, where x will be a “1” or a “0”. If “1” is selected then one or more front panel switches may be inhibited from operating. If “0” is selected then all switches are operational. All keys except the ENTER key may be inhibited. If “1” is selected, the display will show which switches are inhibited upon re-entering programming mode. If no switches are inhibited the display will be blank.
a.If the displayed list is acceptable, press the ENTER key.
b.If a new key inhibit list is wanted
1)Press the keys that are to be inhibited
2)When the list is complete, press the ENTER key
If there are more switches inhibited than the display can show at one time, the display can be shifted over one switch at a time by pressing the FUNC key. Pressing the
ENTER key will retain the current list. If any other key is pressed the current list will be cleared and a new one started. The new list will end when the ENTER key is pressed.
Some examples of this feature are:
a.The instrument is monitoring the weight of a hopper and the user is afraid someone will accidentally ZERO the indicator and lose the weight readings. By inhibiting the ZERO switch this can be prevented.
b.The supervisor feels the instrument is too complicated and the operator could accidentally change the desired setup. Inhibit all the switches except ZERO and that is the only key the operator can use.
c.Instrument is hooked to a remote computer and user doesn’t want anyone to interfere with the computer control. Inhibit all the switches once the indicator is setup.

4.Enter the date by pressing the numeric keys “0” through “9” (omitting leading zeroes).
Enter the date as day/month/year or month/day/year format (see examples).
When entering days 1 - 9 the digits must be preceded by a zero (e.g. 06 for the sixth day). Entering only a 6 will cause the entry to be interpreted as the 60th day of the month ).
Examples: 1. To set the date to January 16, 1999 in month/day/year format, the key sequence would be as follows: 11699 enter. (US format).
2. To set the date to 16 January 1999 in day/month/year format, the key sequence would be as follows 160199. (International format).
5. Press the ENTER key to store the displayed date. The time and date format is set when programming operating parameters.
E. Test Mode
The 8 key is used by the operator to verify proper operation of the instrument.
1.Select the Gross or Net Mode.
2.Push the FUNC key, then the 8 key.
The instrument will show the security level “SLx and then a blinking internal counts display, which is equivalent to the weight on the platform This function can be used to verify that the A/D is operating properly.
Press ENTER to continue.
3.Instrument will display in the following sequence:
a.The deadload counts, “0 xxxx”.
b.The span counts, “S xxxx”.
c.All segments and legends are lit to verify display operation.
d.A RAM and EEPROM test are done. A summary of error messages may be found in Appendix XII.
4.A switch test can be done by the operator or ENTER can be pressed to exit.
When a particular switch pressed, it’s corresponding display may be found in Appendix XII.

F.SETPOINT Operation And Programming
1.General Description, SETPOINT Modes
The Setpoints are used to control alarms, gate controls etc. that are furnished by the customer. Setpoint operation is dependent on Gross or Net weight. The setpoint outputs can only change state when the instrument is displaying Gross or Net weight. If the instrument is not displaying Gross or Net weight, the setpoint outputs will revert to their OFF state.
A setpoint output is ON if the Setpoint “Enable” LED is lighted AND the individual
Setpoint LED is ON.
Setpoint Mode Summary
Refer to Appendix VII for more information.
a.Individual (Single Feed) Setpoints Fast Feed Cutoff = SP - P
b.Paired (Dual Feed) Setpoints
Fast Feed Cutoff = SP - D - P Dribble Cutoff = SP - P
SP (Setpoint) = weight value desired at end of weighing operation
D (Dribble) = weight range at end of setpoint over which material flow changes, usually from “fast” to “slow” feed
P (Preact) = weight value which is used to compensate for material in suspension or other delays in control loop
There are six operating modes. “Mode 0” turns the setpoint option “OFF”. Two modes are for setpoints only and three modes are for batching operations. In addition, a zeroband operation in the Gross Mode only, up to capacity, is available in all modes, if Setpoint 4 is available. The following sections explain each of the modes.
MODE 0- SETPOINTS OFF
The display shows “SP OFF”. The setpoint outputs are disabled.
MODE 1- SETPOINT MODE
The display shows “SP SP”. The setpoint mode is used for simple operations Where the setpoint outputs are not directly controlling valves or gates and it is not desirable or necessary to manually “start” and “stop” the setpoints.
Setpoint mode configures the outputs as simple “dumb” setpoints. When the absolute value of the weight is less than the setpoint, the setpoint output is ON and when the absolute value of the weight exceeds the setpoint, the setpoint output is OFF. The setpoints are always active when the instrument is monitoring weight and the START,
TRIM, and STOP keys are not functional.
Up to 4 setpoints may be enabled and dribble, preact, discharge and zeroband options are available. Some application examples are:
a. turning on a light to signal that a box has been filled to the proper weight.
