Description The Hardy Instruments HI 200DNWM is
a small weigh module that communicates
Net and Gross weights to other devices
connected to a DeviceNet™ Network.
The weigh module supports Hardy’s
®
calibration and has four levels of
C2
WAVERSAVER®. The weigh module
consists of a printed circuit card with
standoffs (for mounting in an enclosure)
or rails for DIN rail mounting. The weigh
module outputs (produces) Gross, Net
and Tare weights and inputs (consumes)
Zero and Tare commands via
DeviceNet™. Configuration includes:

5. Span Weight
6. Set Point Values
a. Mode
b. Preact
c. Deadband
NOTE: WAVERSAVER® and C2® are registered trade-
marks of Hardy Instruments, Inc.
Configuration data is stored in an
EEprom. I/O slave messaging is polled.
The weight module supports two TTL
levels out to relays for use as set points.
A bit is supplied when the set point is
reached.
NOTE: Hardy Instruments does not supply the set point
module.
WAVERSAVER® Typically, mechanical noise is present in
forces larger than the weight forces trying to be detected. The HI 200DNWM
weigh module is fitted with WAVER-
®
SAVER
technology which eliminates
the effects of vibratory forces present in
all industrial weight control and measurement applications. By eliminating
the factor of vibratory forces the controller is capable of identifying the actual
weight data. WAVERSAVER
®
enables
1-3
HI 200DNWM MANUAL
the weigh module to distinguish between
actual weight data and mechanical noise,
both of which are typically transferred to
the weight controller by the load cell sig-
nal. WAVERSAVER® can be configured from devicenet controller to ignore
noise with frequencies as low as 0.5 Hz.
One of three other additional cut off frequencies may be selected to provide a
faster instrument response time. The
default factory configuration is 1.0 Hz
vibration frequency immunity.
C2® Calibration C2® Second Generation Calibration
enables a scale system to be calibrated
electronically without using certified test
weights which equals the systems load
capacity. All Hardy Instruments C2®
certified load sensors contain digital
information detailing its unique perfor-
mance characteristic s. C2® Calibration is
performed over the network or by simply
pushing “THE BUTTON”and hold until
the module status LED (DS2) goes out.
The Button With one push of “THE BUTTON” the
HI 200DNWM automatically electronically calibrates the weighing system with
®
certified load sensors, making the
C2
system ready for use. This saves system
start up time costs and aggravations.
What is DeviceNet
®
? The DeviceNet network is an open, glo-
bal industry-standard communication
network designed to provide an interface
1-4
CHAPTER 1 - OVERVIEW
through a single cable from a programmable controller directly to smart
devices such as sensors, push buttons,
motor starters, simple operator interfaces, drives and weigh modules. You no
longer have to hard-wire each device to
an I/O module or I/O block. Because
you use significantly less wire, you
spend far less time and money on wiring
and installation time. The network also
provides access to the intelligence
present in the devices for superior diagnostics and troubleshooting to help
increase system up time. The DeviceNet
network lets you monitor your plant-
Physical Layer
(Network Topology)
floor devices from a central location and
reconfigure them as your needs change
or service them as required. You can, for
example, configure the weigh module for
different applications. The DeviceNet
network's capabilities help ease integration, and reduce installation and wiring
costs. (See Fig. 1-1)
• Trunk Line (thick or thin cable can
be used)
• 120 ohm terminator at each end.
• Drop lines can extend to a maximum
length of 20’ feet.
• Drops may be daisy chained to multi-
ple nodes.

the instrument is 5 volts and the excitation voltage at
the junction box was 4.9 volts, 0.1 volts was lost due
to cable resistan ce. This loss wi ll caus e a lin ear error
of 1% of applied load in all weight readings. This
error is introduced because the programmed millivolt

CHAPTER 4 - CONFIGURATION
CHAPTER 4 - CONFIGURATION
SCOPE Chapter Four consists of all the proce-
dures for configuring the HI 200DNWM
Weigh Module. System configuration
includes only hardware adjustments such
as Jumper and Dip Switch settings. We
recommend that maintenance personnel
be familiar with this chapter before configuring the Weigh Module. Alternative
configuration procedures are not recommended.
Differences in the
Series A and Series B
Modules
Changing from the
Series A to the
Series B Module
Changing from the
Series B to the
Series A Module
The Series B 200 DNWM module uses 4
bytes of input polled data. This requires
each module to use a different .EDS file.
Configuration when using RS NetWorx
for DeviceNet require the new .EDS file.
This adds the 4 bytes of input polled
data. If you want to use the new features
of the module, the 4 bytes of input polled
data need to be mapped into the scanner’s scanlist.
If you do not map the input polled data
into the scanner’s scanlist, the module
will operate as if it were a Series A. No
changes need to be made to any ladder
logic written for the module.
If you change from Series B to the older
module, the configuration when using
RS NetWorx for DeviceNet needs to be
done using the older .EDS file. This will
remove the 4 bytes of input polled data.
These 4 bytes of data must then be
removed from the scanner’s scanlist. All

ladder logic written that refers to the 4
bytes of input polled data needs to be
changed and any reference to the output
data also needs to be reviewed and possible modified.

CHAPTER 5 - SETUP
SCOPE All information contained in Chapter 5 per-
tains to software or firmware settings or procedures to prepare the HI 200DNWM weigh
module for calibration and operation. Alternatives to these procedures either explicit or
implied, contained in this section are not recommended. It is very important that the user
and service personnel be familiar with the
procedures contained in this chapter, before
going through the setup procedures.
Saving to Non-Volatile Ram
NOTE: If you have an instrument with version 1.5, please
refer to Devicenet Manual, REV B-6 or earlier for
instructions about Saving to Non-Volatile Ram or
contact Hardy Instruments Customer Service Department.
In version 2.1, the HI 200DNWM does not
automatically save parameters to non-volatile memory. To save parameters to non-volatile RAM, set parameter 38 (Save nonvolatile command) to 1.
This request should be sent after changing
any configuration parameter. It does NOT
need to be sent after altering a command
parameters like TARE or ZERO. It does not
need to be sent after doing a calibration. The
necessary calibration data values are saved
automatically. However, if you change
parameters used during calibration, like
“number of averages”, or “WAVER-
5-1

Interface
• Parameter 39 = Parameter high word.
Length in Bytes = 2
This parameter is used in the command
interface as described below:
The Command Interface allows easy access
to all parameters without using explicit messages.
The HI 200DNWM version 2.1 produces 4
bytes of polled output data and consumes 4
bytes of polled input data. The 4 bytes of
input data can be used to set parameters in
the module and to specify what data should
be placed in the 4 bytes of output data.
5-7
HI 200DNWM MANUAL
Format of
Commands (4
byte input
data)
Byte 0 Parameter value, least significant byte. (Used by
the WRITE command only.
Byte 1 Parameter value, second l ea s t sig ni fic ant byte.
(Used by the WRITE command only.)
Byte 2 Parameter number. The parameter number is the
Byte 3 (Command byte): 0=READ command. 1 =
instance of the par ameter object. These are li s ted
in the HI 200DNWM manual .
WRITE command
Most of the HI 200DNWM’s parameters are
only 1 byte long, making it possible to write
them with a single command. There are also
some 4 byte parameters. To write one of
them:
Step 1. First write the 2 most significant
bytes, using a WRITE command as
described above, with 0x27 in the
parameter number field.
Step 2. Write the least significant bytes
using normal parameter numbers.
The module will combine the value
written to parameter 0x27 with the
least significant bytes to produce
the value written to the 4 byte
parameter.
5-8
The 4 bytes written to the output table are as
follows:
• If the Command byte of the input data is
0 (READ), the data is the value of the
specified parameter, least significant byte
first.
CHAPTER 5 - SETUP
• If the specified parameter is an invalid
number (0 for example: there is no
parameter number 0), the data is net
weight, with units as determined by the
METRIC POLL parameter.
• If the Command byte of the input data is
non-zero (WRITE), the output data
echoes the input data.
Examples
Using the
Command
Interface
Reading Gross Weight in the polled output
data.
1. First word (2 least significant bytes) of
the input data is not used. Ignore.
2. Lower byte of second word is the param-
eter number. Gross weight in lbs is
parameter #16.
3. Upper byte of second word set is “0”
indicating read.
This causes the unit to output the Gross
weight in lbs to the output polled data area.
Resolution and data type would depend on
the Weight Multiplier setting.
Writing new value to number of averages.
1. First byte of first word on the input data
is the new valued wanted.
2. Upper byte of first word should be 0 and
is not used.
3. Lower byte of second word is the param-
eter number. Averages is parameter #5.
4. Upper byte of second word is set to “1”
to indicate write.
This causes the unit to write the value in the
first byte of the first word to the Averages

About SetPoints
Dead Band
Limits
The set point value is the target weight or
level in either net or gross weight units
The dead band value can be set as a High or
Low value. It is used to deactivate the set
point.
For example:
If a set point value was 1000 pounds and the
dead band was set to 5 pounds, the relay
would close at a 1000 pounds but not open
until the weight dropped to 995 pounds. This
is used if a set point is a high trip limit. A
High dead band would be used for a low trip
limit. Examples are show for Low and High
Trip Limits in Fig. 5-2.
5-10
CHAPTER 5 - SETUP
FIG. 5-1 LOW AND HIGH PREACT TRIP LIMITS
Three General
Rules for Set
Points
1. Set Points activate at the set point plus
the preact.
2. Set Points deactivate at the set point plus
the deadband.
3. The deaband should be numerically
larger than the preact.
Preact Limits 1. The preact value is the number of units
below or above the set point at which the
relay will trip.
2. The preact value is used as an “in-flight”
compensation value when filling a vessel. If set to zero, there will be no compensation.

CHAPTER 6 - CALIBRATION
CHAPTER 6 - CALIBRATION
SCOPE Chapter 6 pertains to the calibration pro-
cedures for the HI 200DNWM weigh
module. Alternatives to any procedures
either implied or explicitly contained in
this chapter are not recommended. In
order for the weigh module to work
properly, it must be calibrated prior to
operation. All calibration should be recalibrated periodically, or when not in
use for extended periods of time. Be sure
to follow all the procedures completely
to insure that the weights read by the
module are accurate. It is very important
that the user and service personnel be
familiar with the procedures contained in
this chapter, before installing or operating the HI 200DNWM weigh module.
Pre-Calibration Procedures
Step 1. Check to see if the load cell/
sensor/points are properly
installed. Refer to your load
cell I&M manual for proper
installation instructions.
Step 2. Check to be sure that the con-
nectors are installed firmly in
the weigh module headers.
NOTE: You need to go thr oug h the p re-calibration pro ce-
dures before each calibration, regardless of the
type of calibration you are performing.

CHAPTER 8 - TROUBLESHOOTING
Load cell wiring is
complete and correct?
1) Does the mV signal i ncrease in a positive direction.
2) If you receive a negative result s, check if load cell is
mounted correctly.
a) The arrow goes with the direction of force.
b) If there isn't an arrow, you must manually verify the
correct direction. A negative reading indicates the
load cell is upside down.
c) Load cells in tension will not reflect a negative
reading if install upside down. If upsi de dow n, only
the force applied by the cable would be included in
the weight readings.
d) If you are still receiving a negative signal, verify
load cell wire color code
Multiple load cells?
MAP the mV reading.
Balance the load
1) Verify a positive reading f rom each l oad cell, using a
volt meter.
2) Record the mV reading and compare each corner for
proper load sharing.
a) Proper load sharing should see only a di fference
of +/- .5 mV.
b) Larger differences due t o m otors and piping,
should not exceed +/- 2 mV.
c) If there isn't any motors, valves, or piping to
explain the mV difference, adjust t he corners and
balance the mV readings.
d) Use shims, or if equipped adjusting bolts on the
load cell mounting hardware.
e) Drawing a load cell map will help determine the
correct leg to adjust and in which direction.
Three load cells balance like a three legged chair.
1) Using a sprit level, verify the vessel is vertically and
horizontally correct.
2) Verify if any height change will effect the attitude of adjacent
vessels or piping.
3) Adjust each legs to dynami cal l y m atch mV outputs
4) Verify the mV readings and physical l evel when complete.
Four load cells or more present a challenge.
1) Use volt meter to determine the sum of the load cell signals
and your target mV setting for each load cell.
2) Read the output of i ndi vi dual load cells.
3) Adjust the load cell with the lowest reading to dynamically
match the target mV readings obtained in step 1.
4) Read the mV readings from each load cell to verify a proper
correction.
5) Repeat step 3 and 4 to achieve a proper load sharing vessel .
6) Verify the mV readings and vessel level when complete.

Physical Grounding
All common equipment share a common ground point.
Keep the ground cable length to earth ground as short as possible.
Install a new ground rod if the cable length is excessive.
Cable -
Cuts or breaks in the loadcell cable insulation allow moisture to wick into the cable
and loadpoints. This can setup stray capacitance charges and allow ground currents
to exist. This could create a highly intermittent situation.
Loadcells
Ground straps must be installed to provide a direct discharge path to ground around
the loadpoints.
Vessel, Fill and discharge piping
Ground all to a common point to eliminate electrical differences in potential, and
static build-up.
Cable Routing
Seperate high voltage sources and cables from low voltage signal cables.
Stay a minimum of 14 inches from Magnetic fields and SCR controls.
Avoid parallel high voltage and signal cable runs.
Cable Shielding -
Ground low voltage cable shields only at the controller end.
Grounding both cable ends will produce ground currents.
Verify, with an ohm meter, the shield is only grounded at the weight controller.
Disconnect the shield at the controller and check for an open circuit between ground
and shield. Reconnect the shield to ground and confirm a proper ground path from
the Junction box to the controller.
Verify the shield is not connect to ground at the Junction Box.
Loadcell cable shields only pass thru the Junction Boxes and are not connected to
ground at that point.

Mechanical Stability
Vessel -
When inspecting a vessel keep in mind, the Center of Gravity (COG) should be
low and centered equally over all the load cells.
Insure the load is directly over or under the load point to avoid side-loading.
Insure there isn't any side loading from piping or ext er nal f or c es .
Install flexures on all piping to insure a free float ing v es sel.
Insure the vessel and loadcell mounts are mechanically stable and fixed.
Large changes in individual Loadcells indicate a shift in COG orfaulty Loadcells.
Piping and motors will effect t he indiv idual loadc ell r eadings.
Allow for a higher reading on Loadcells that support motor s and piping.
Insure pneumatic lines are not applying pressure to t he v ess el when ener giz ed.
Use check (stay) rods to minimize vessel movement.
Insure the check rods are loose and not interact ing with the vessel.
Power down all vibration, vacuum and pressurization equipment dur ing the test
process.

Configuration settings
Incorrect Waversaver settings
can cause unstable weight readings
Adjust to the lowest WS setting that gives you a stable reading.
Higher frequencies with low amplitude vibrations; - Use WS settings 2 or 3
Low frequency with high amplitude vibrations; - Use W S se t t ing 0 or 1.
Repeatability -
Divide the total loadcell capacity, including decimal point s , by load cell divisions,
1,000 to 10,000.
(expected stable weight reading).
Resolution -
Divide the total loadcell capacity, including decimal point s , by 30,000.
(The amount you can expect to see, but not nec es s arily s t able)
