The LCIC-WIM is a high speed,
intelligent load cell interface card
with USB/RS-232/RS-485 interfaces.
Besides its basic mode, the board
includes an integral Fill Mode
supplying an independent filling
control.

The board is intelligent and powerful
enough for OEM customers—it is
ready to accept piggy-back modules
and/or embedded applications for
OEM special requirements.

The LCIC-WIM-BEN is useful in
applications such as analyzing
noise and vibration in a belt
conveyor or any dynamic weighing
system, for example the time it
takes for stabilization after a load
was applied.

Other potential applications include
checking scale behavior for
slow/high speed WIM (weighing in
motion) applications, measuring
maximum (peak) and minimum
forces on a scale/testing machine
(helps to select the suitable load
cell for optimum performance),
and running tests and getting
immediate final weight results
on WIM and check weighers.

LCIC-WIM Software

Three software utilities are
supplied with the board:
LCIC-WIM-CALIBRATION,
LCIC-WIM-SETTINGS
and LCIC-WIM-MONITOR.

shown smaller than actual size

These software utilities enable
easy selection and setup of the
required board. The calibration
utility (LCIC-WIM-CALIBRATION)
enables you to calibrate the
LCIC-WIM-BEN board by adjusting
it to your own system. The utility is
straight forward and is in the form
of a Windows®wizard.

The LCIC-WIM-SETTINGS utility
gives control to card’s filters, analog
output, fill mode parameters and
more. The LCIC-WIM-MONITOR
utility is a vital tool for analyzing
dynamic load/force systems.

It takes full advantage of the board’s
speed and samples the load cell
signal at maximum speed (15,000
samples per second), sending the
data to the PC via the USB port and
displaying it as a curve—load cell
signal/versus time.

You can then zoom in/out on the
data, view max (peak) and min
readings, save the data in standard
ASCII file format for later use and
even perform some calculations like
averaging on a required part of the
curve.
