Introduction / Overview

Broadweigh Bluetooth range provides access to quality measurements on a mobile platform such as a phone or tablet. The delivery mechanism is Bluetooth Smart which utilises the flexibility and availability of Bluetooth receivers while maintaining the low power requirements of embedded systems. Broadweigh Bluetooth is built upon two complimentary principles of Bluetooth Smart, broadcast advertising data which enables users to deliver the same data to multiple receivers and low power paired connections which can be used in a point to point connection for configuration.

Navigating This Manual

When viewing this PDF manual the following tips will help you navigate.

Viewing bookmarks ( or ) to the left of the page, in the PDF viewer, will allow easy navigation to the relevant

chapters of this manual. Alt-left arrow is a useful shortcut back to the last page viewed after a hyperlink is clicked. Hyperlinks are coloured green and are underlined.

Safe Use

Designed to aid rigging professionals on a daily basis, the Broadweigh wireless Crosby load cell shackles offer simple, real-time, effective and accurate load monitoring. It allows users to know the precise loads on any given rigging point, guy wire or hoist in a rigging system. This valuable data enables the rigger to safely distribute weight for indeterminate loads, roof structures and mother-grids as well as indicate alarms to avoid overload situations.

The Broadweigh Shackle is a Crosby safety bow shackle with load pin and integrated electronics which features the following:

 Available in 3.25 tonne WLL  Up to 90 m line of sight wireless transmission range  IP67  5:1 safety factor  Low rigging profile of 130 mm  10 month battery life at transmission 1 per second  Accuracy of ±1% of current load or 25 kg, whichever is the greater value (When using original bobbin.

There may be a reduction in accuracy if these are swapped.)

Shackles must be correctly selected for the specific application required. As well as safe working load, physical size and fitment with other components needs to be considered.

Mantracourt Electronics Limited BroadWeigh Blue Telemetry User Manual

The shackle pin and bow are calibrated and load tested together. It is therefore essential for the accuracy of the system that the following information is adhered to:

 Each pin and bow must be kept as a pair and not interchanged. The bow is marked with the ID of the pin

it is associated with as shown.

 The pin must be aligned in the same orientation with the bow as it was when calibrated.

 The Broadweigh shackle is designed to only fit together in one orientation, the anti-rotational bracket will

only fit around the bow shackle on the side with CE marking. This is the opposite side to the ID marking.

 The shackle must be used in conjunction with a bobbin, nut and retaining clip as shown:

Any out of alignment, side or twist loading will affect the readings given as well as load the shackle in a way that it was not designed for.

Mantracourt Electronics Limited BroadWeigh Blue Telemetry User Manual

6

If using the shackle as part of a bridle, remember that the load in legs of the bridle will increase with the angle. If the Broadweigh shackle pin is not connected to that part of the leg then it will not register this increase.

No part of the shackle, pin, bobbin should be modified by welding, grinding or similar.

Always ensure that the load is stable.

The allowable operating temperature range is -20°C to +50°C.

Mantracourt Electronics Limited BroadWeigh Blue Telemetry User Manual

The working load limit (WLL) of Broadweigh shackles assumes the absence of exceptionally hazardous conditions. These include offshore activities, lifting of persons and lifting of potentially dangerous loads such as molten metals. In such cases the degree of hazard should be assessed by a competent person and the safe working load (SWL) reduced accordingly from the working load limit.

Please remember that Broadweigh does not give advice as to how the data from Broadweigh shackles is used. All lifting operations are different and must be supervised by suitably qualified and experienced riggers. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure conformity with local regulations.

Broadweigh is not designed to be used as part of a safety critical control system. If it is required for one then the integrator would need to fully assess its suitability.

Broadweigh shackle assemblies are subjected to a 150 % proof load (static test coefficient of 1.5) before being calibrated.

Mantracourt Electronics Limited BroadWeigh Blue Telemetry User Manual

Inspection and Maintenance

As with all rigging equipment, Broadweigh Bluetooth shackles should be inspected before and after every use, ensuring that all the components are present and correct (bow, pin, bobbin, nut and r clip) and the serial numbers match. All load bearing components must be free from cuts, nicks, cracks, gouges or excessive wear and distortion. Any damaged Broadweigh shackles or components must be taken out of service and returned to your dealer to arrange refurbishment or scrapping. If you attempt to replace or swap any load bearing parts yourself the unit’s calibration will be void.

It is also important before every use to check that all the settings are as expected. The most safety critical settings to check are that the system zero and the units are correctly set (see the relevant sections in the manual). If these have been unknowingly changed you could end up with unexpected and misleading readings. Before moving system zero or checking any readings please ensure that the shackle’s temperature has stabilised. When moved from different temperatures it can take up to an hour to reach the local ambient temperature. Once it has done so, the readings can accurately be checked.

Always remember that damage to the shackle or its calibration can happen at any time. If you need to move the system zero significantly then further investigation is required. This could take the form of a thorough examination and calibration check with a known load. Records should be kept of any calibration check so that you can see any movement over time. If the readings are out by more than 1% or 25 kg or you have to zero out more than 50 kg, please return to your dealer to arrange recalibration.

These measures should be used in conjunction with your own thorough examination routine at the same intervals you have set for normal shackles. This will vary due to local regulations but should not be less than every 6 months. Records of all thorough examinations should be kept.

We would recommend checking your shackle’s output with a known load at least once a year and a return to the

factory for a calibration check every two years.

There are very few maintenance requirements. The Broadweigh shackles, TwistLinks and battery enclosures need to be kept clean, threads clear of debris and protected from corrosion.

Do not overtighten screws when replacing batteries. Damage caused by overtightening is not covered under manufacturer warranty.

Remove the batteries if being stored for an extended period. Leaking batteries can damage the circuitry.

Broadweigh Bluetooth Telemetry Basic Principles

There are some basic radio settings and concepts that should be understood to effectively configure, deploy, optimise and troubleshoot Broadweigh Bluetooth telemetry systems.

Transmission Range

The flexibility of the Broadweigh Bluetooth range is that the user may utilise their mobile phone rather than using a specific handheld receiver or base station. This flexibility does mean that we have no control over the quality of the receiver. This imparts a large variation in the transmission range capability of the module.

Data rate

The Bluetooth specification specifies the maximum rate at which advertisement information can be delivered. The Broadweigh Bluetooth modules may be configured to deliver data in the range between 10 samples per second and 1 every 25 seconds.

Resolution

The noise free resolution of the BB-S325 is up to 16.5 bits. This is equivalent to 1 in 92000 counts, or better than

0.1 kg.

Transmitter Module Modes of Operation

The Broadweigh Bluetooth module disconnects the power from the load cell and sleeps the micro-controller in between measurements. This improves the battery lifetime of the system a makes the most efficient use of the battery’s energy.

Data Tag

The advertising packets transmitted by Broadweigh Bluetooth modules are identified by their Data Tag. The Data Tag is a four character hexadecimal identifier that defaults to the last 4 characters of the modules ID printed on the silver side label. The Data Tag can be changed by configuring the module.

This app requires access to the Bluetooth Services which are part of Location Services so

the user may need to grant permission for the app to access Location even though the app does not use any location data.

The App allows the user to create multiple Projects. Each project can contain a list of Broadweigh Bluetooth shackles. Each project has a Dashboard which can be populated with display Tiles that use data from the Shackles to represent values in different formats. When in run mode the App uses the data from the shackles to populate the dashboard Tiles in real time. The App will also support one to one connections with the Broadweigh shackles to enable configuration.

Expression Editor

The Expression Editor is used to define what value to display in the tile. You can build a mathematical expression that can contain references to the Transmitters that have been assigned to the Project. These references are converted to the actually transmitted value when the expression is evaluated.

Expressions can range from a simple single transmitter value through to complex math functions applied to multiple transmitter values.

The Expression Editor starts off with an empty cell.

To add a reference to a Transmitter tap the Transmitter button and you will see a list of Transmitters that have been assigned to the Project.

In this case there is just one transmitter named Crane 1. Just tap on the transmitter name to add it to the expression.

This would be enough to simply use the transmitter’s value in the tile. If you wanted to view the Square Root of the transmitter value you can add a square root function. Select the required cell, in this case the Crane 1, and tap the Function button.

Scroll down to find the required function and tap to select.

47

To add further items to the expression you need to select the appropriate cell before tapping more buttons. If we wanted to add some math to the Crane 1 value inside the square root function you would highlight the Crane 1 cell as shown above. Then when you tap the * followed by the 2 button the expression will be built like this.

Had you wanted the *2 to be applied after the square root function the sqr( cell should have been selected.

Appendix B – Antennas

This module uses an integral chip antenna.

Radio performance at microwave wavelengths is very dependent upon the operating environment; any structure within the operating region of the radios will give rise to three effects:

Obscuration. Obscuration will result in reduced range and occurs when an obstruction masks the line-of-sight between radios.

Aberrations to the horizontal and vertical space patterns. Distortion of these patterns may occur if structures or objects are placed in the near or intermediate field of the antenna. The effect will be to distort the coverage patterns, adversely affecting range and link quality.

Reflection. Any object placed in line-of-sight of the transmit antenna will result in signals arriving at the receiver by an indirect path. Degradation of performance due to reflection (multipath effects) appears as reduced range or poor link quality.

Any of the above will reduce RSSI figures, an increase in the packet loss rate and in extreme cases complete loss of signal. Fortunately, if consideration is given to these effects at the integration stage then a good quality link will be obtained.

Guidelines for installation:

When planning installations ensure that line-of–sight between nodes is maintained and that objects or structures are kept at least one metre away from antennae wherever possible.

Improvement will also be obtained by altering the height above ground of the transmitter; a small increase in antenna elevation will often improve reception.

Antenna Range

The achievable range in the Broadweigh Bluetooth module is heavily dependent upon the Bluetooth Low Energy receiver. Each mobile platform manufacturer specify different limits on the receive sensitivity of their hardware. In our tests the Apple products achieved the best range. Mobile phones less than two years old exhibit a range of between 50 and 90 metres line of sight. Table 1 gives the maximum range in an open field site between a Broadweigh Bluetooth transmitter module and specific mobile phones. All range tests are conducted in an open field site with the transmitter mounted 3.0 metres off the ground on a plastic pole. The mobile receiver was held at 1.5m off the ground directed towards the transmitter.

The testing conducted shows a trend towards an improved range as the Bluetooth low energy technology has matured on the mobile devices.
