If power mode is set to manual, the Power button must be used to turn the unit on and off. If power mode is set to auto, the unit will automatically power on when it’s plugged in and the only way to turn it off is to unplug power. See Section 3.1.7.

The Menu key is used to access the User Setup menu.

Sets the current gross weight to zero, provided the amount of weight to be removed or added is within the specified zero range and the scale is not in motion. The zero band is defaulted to two percent of full scale, but can be configured for up to 100 percent of full scale. Also used as a move up key to navigate to different menu levels or used to increment a number when editing a value.

Switches the weight display to an alternate unit. The alternate unit is defined in the Configuration menu, and could be kg, g, lb, oz, tn or t. Also used as a scroll left key to navigate to different menus or to toggle to another digit when editing a value.

Sends on-demand print format out the serial port, provided the conditions for standstill are met. Print may be displayed while printing. Also used as a scroll right key to navigate to different menus or to toggle to another digit when editing a value.

Performs one of several predetermined Tare functions dependent on the mode of operation selected in the TAREFN parameter. See Section 1.8.7 for more information on viewing stored tares. Also acts as an enter key for numeric or parameter entry.

Switches the display mode from gross to net, or from net to gross. If a tare value has been entered or acquired, the net value is the gross weight minus the tare.

2.1 Unpacking

Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the 480 to ensure all components are included and undamaged . The shipping carton should contain the indicator, this manual, and a parts kit. If any parts were damaged in shipment, notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and the shipper immediately.

See Section 2.8 on page 18 for parts kit contents.

2.2 Enclosure Disassembly

The indicator enclosure must be opened to connect the scale load cell cable and any other interface connection.

Before opening the unit, ensure the power cord is disconnected from the power outlet.

Ensure power to the indicator is disconnected, then place the indicator face-down on an anti-static work mat. Remove the screws that hold the backplate to the enclosure body. Then lift the backplate away from the enclosure and turn it over to access boards.

The display cable will still be attached. Be careful when lifting and turning over the backplate so it does not become damaged or dislodged.

2.3 Cable Connections

The 480 provides four cord grips for cabling into the indicator: one for the power cord, three to accommodate load cell, communications, digital inputs and outputs, and analog output cables. Two of the three free cord grips come with a plug installed to prevent moisture from entering the enclosure. Depending on the application, remove the plug from any cord grip that will be used and install cables as required. Figure 2-1 shows the recommended assignments for the 480 cord grips.

10 480 Legend Series

Except for the power cord, all cables routed through the cord grips should be grounded against the indicator enclosure. Do the following to ground shielded cables:

• Use the ground clamp screws to install grounding clamps on the grounding bar. Do not tighten screws yet.

There is a larger clamp available in the parts kit; the larger clamp is for a cable diameter of 0.25 inch, the smaller clamp is for a cable diameter of 0.18 inch

• Route cables through cord grips and grounding clamps to determine cable lengths required to reach cable

connectors. Mark cables to remove insulation and shield as described below:

• For cables with foil shielding, strip insulation and foil from the cable 1/2 grounding clamp (see Figure 2-2). Fold the foil shield back on the cable where the cable passes through the clamp. Ensure silver (conductiv e) side of foil is turned outward for contact with the grounding clamp.

• For cables with braided shielding, strip cable insulation and braided shield from a point just past the grounding clamp. Strip another 1/2 inch (15 mm) of insulation to only expose the braid where the cable passes through the clamp (see Figure 2-2).

• For load cell cables, cut the shield wire just past the grounding clamp. Shield wire function is provided by contact between the cable shield and the grounding clamp.

• Route stripped cables through cord grips and grounding clamps. Ensure shields contact grounding clamps as shown in Figure 2-2. Tighten ground clamp screws.

2.4 Battery Operation

Note

The 480 can be equipped with an optional internal Lithium-Ion battery to provide up to:

• 18 hours of continuous use (single load cell, 350 ohms, no options)

• 15 hours of continuous use (four load cell, 350 ohms, no options) When operated on AC power, the internal battery is automatically charged by means of an internal battery charger circuit. Battery life depends on several factors, including number of load cells, frequency of use, options installed,

temperature and other accessories being used. Battery charge time is approximately 16 hours to 100 percent. To extend battery life, the indicator features a sleep mode that allows the indicator to go into a low power mode

while it’s operating on battery power. See Section 9.6 on page 65 for more information about the sleep mode.

When installing a 480 with a battery option, it is recommended that the CPU board jumper 4 be removed. Removing jumper 4 will maximize the life of the battery when the indicator is turned off due to reduced standby current. See the Power parameter in Section 3-8 on page 31 for more information.

When the Standby parameter is set to any setting other than NONE, any key press will work to wake the indicator from standby.

5. Connect the option card ribbon to the option card(s).

6. Connect the option card ribbon to J9 on the CPU board.

7. Connect output cables, as needed, to the option card(s).

Either option card position can be used for the Analog Output Module, or the Relay Card.

The Ethernet/USB Option Card must be installed in the location above the A/D Card, not next to the Power Supply.

2.6 Board Removal

If you must remove any 480 board, use the following procedure:

1. Disconnect power to the indicator.

2. Remove backplate as described in Section 2.2 on p age 10.

3. Disconnect all cables from the board.

4. Label connections for re-installation of board.

5. Remove the four screws from the board, then lift the board off the backplate.

To install a board, reverse the above procedure. Be sure to reinstall cable ties to secure all cables inside the indicator enclosure.

When removing lower boards, the upper boards and option bracket, if installed, will need to be removed first.

For access to configuration parameters, the setup switch must be pressed.

Prevents Service Access

Insert a lead wire seal through three fillister screws. This prevents access to the electronics, electrical contacts and Legal for Trade configuration parameters.

Figure 2-6. Sealing the Indicator to Prevent Access

Only use the 1/4 inch screw in the top hole for sealing, using the longer one will damage the CPU board.

Allows Service Access – Optional

The calibration cover is used for inserting a lead wire seal through both fillister screws and the plastic cover. The cover allows access to the electronics and electrical contacts, while preventing access into Legal for Trade configuration parameters.

There is an alternative cover over the A/D to ensure the A/D and load cell connection cannot be changed after the unit is sealed. This cover is secured to the A/D with the bottom fillister screw in the calibration cover.

There is also an audit trail counter to track calibration and configuration changes made to legally relevant parameters.

Place the calibration cover on the backplate and secure with the existing fillister head screws and o-rings to seal the indicator for Legal for Trade approval.

3.0 Configuration

Note

There are two types of configuration parameters in the 480: Legal for Trade configuration and non-legal configuration (or operator param eters). Legal for Trade configuration requires pressing the setup switch (see Section 3.2). Non-legal configuration parameters do not require pressing the setup switch, but may be password protected.

The following sections provide graphic representations of the 480 menu structures. In the actual menu structure, the settings chosen under each parameter are arranged horizontally. To save page space, menu choices are shown in vertical columns. The factory default setting appears at the top of each column in bold type. Most menu diagrams are accompanied by a table that describes all parameters and parameter values associated with that menu.

Parameter level is indicated by the left LED position, levels 1-4.

See Section 1.7 on page 4 for navig ation methods.

A menu map is provided on the following page for reference.

Supervisor Submenus

KIND Specifies the setpoint kind and determines whether function is based on GROSS or NET

weight or based on time value for delay. OFF Setpoint turned off/ignored. GROSS Gross setpoint. Performs functions based on the gross weight. The target weight entered is

considered a positive gross weight. NET Net setpoint. Performs functions based on the net weight. The target weight entered is

considered a positive net weight value.

-GROSS Negative gross weight. Performs functions based on the gross weight. The target weight

entered is considered a negative gross weight.

-NET Negative net weight. Performs functions based on the net weight. The target weight entered is

considered a negative net weight value. DELAY Delays the batch sequence for a specified time. The length of the delay (in tenths of a second)

is specified by the VALUE parameter.

TRIP HIGHER

LOWER

Trips the setpoint when the weight is higher or lower than the setpoint value.

If batch sequence is off (Continuous Setpoint) with:

• TRIP = HIGHER – the associated digital output will become active when the weight value is higher than the setpoint value

• TRIP = LOWER – the output is active when the weight is below the setpoint value.

If batch sequence is on (Batching Setpoint) with:

• TRIP = HIGHER – the associated digital output is active until the setpoint value is reached or exceeded

• TRIP = LOWER – the output is active until the weight goes below the setpoint value.

WAITSS OFF

Wait for Standstill – Value must be stable to satisfy this action.

PUSHPR OFF

Push Print – Specify ON to perform a print operation when the setpoint is satisfied. This action does not wait for standstill, it prints as soon as the setpoint is satisfied.

To wait for standstill before printing, set the WAITSS parameter to ON. This action uses the Setpoint Print Format.

PUSHAC OFF

Push Accumulator – Specify ON to update the accumulator when the setpoint is satisfied. This action does not wait for standstill, it accumulates as soon as the setpoint is satisfied.

To wait for standstill before accumulating, also set the WAITSS parameter to ON.

PUSHTR OFF

Push Tare – Specify ON to perform an acquire tare operation when the setpoint is satisfied. This action does not wait for standstill, it tares the weight as soon as the setpoint is satisfied.

To wait for standstill before performing the tare, also set the WAITSS parameter to ON.

PUSHTR acquires the tare regardless of the value specified for the REGULAT parameter on the PROGRAM menu.

DIGOUT NONE

1-8

Digital Output – specify the digital output associated with this setpoint.

To use outputs 1-4 and inputs 1-2, short jumper A1 (JP2) To use outputs 5-8 and inputs 3-4, short jumpers A0 (JP1) and A1 (JP2)

BATSEQ OFF

Determines if the setpoint is a continuously running setpoint (OFF), or part of a batch sequence (ON).

PREACT number Allows a setpoint to shut off before the setpoint is satisfied to allow for material in suspension. HYSTER number Specifies a band around the setpoint value that must be exceeded before the setpoint, once

off, can trip on.

Zero range – selects the range within which the scale can be zeroed. The 2% selection is ± 2% around the calibrated zero point, for a total range of 4%. Indicator must be at standstill to zero the scale.

Initial Zero Range at power up – see Error messages HINOFF and LINOFF in Section 9.1.1 If on power up the weight value is between the ±% range specified of Calibrated Zero, the

indicator will zero off that weight. If outside that range, the indicator will display HINOFF or LINOFF, depending on whether the initial reading is above or below the range.

If not set at zero, hopper/scale MUST be empty when powered up.

Motion band – sets the level, in display divisions, at which scale motion is detected. If motion is not detected, the standstill symbol lights. Some operations, including print, tare and zero, require the scale to be at standstill. Maximum legal value varies depending on local regulations.

Setting the MOTBAN setting to 0.0 disables motion sensing, the scale will always be considered stable.

Digital filter cutout sensitivity – the light setting responds quickly to small weight changes and is less stable. The heavy setting responds slowly to small weight changes and is more stable. Use the heavy setting in an unstable environment.

AFTHRH 000002 Digital filter cutout threshold – specifies the filter threshold, in weight value. When a weight

change exceeds the value set for threshold, digital filtering is suspended. A setting of zero disables the filter. The decimal point in the entered value is assumed, so if the display division is 1lb, a value of 1 is equal to 1lb. If the dd is 0.1lb, a value of 1 is equal to 0.1lb.

PWRUPM GO

DELAY

Power up mode – when set to GO, the indicator goes into operation immediately after a brief power up display test.

When set to DELAY, the indicator performs a power up display test and then enters a 30 second warm-up period. If no motion is detected during the warm-up period, the indicator becomes operational when the warm-up period ends; if motion is detected, the delay timer is reset and the warm-up period repeated.

REGULA NTEP

OIML CANADA NONE

Regulatory mode – specifies the regulatory agency having jurisdiction over the scale site. OIML, NTEP, and CANADA modes allow a tare to be acquired at any weight greater than zero.

NONE allows tares to be acquired at any weight value. OIML, NTEP, and CANADA modes allow a tare to be cleared only if the gross weight is at no

load. NONE allows tares to be cleared at any weight value. NTEP and OIML modes allow a new tare to be acquired even if a tare is already present. In

CANADA mode, the previous tare must be cleared before a new tare can be acquired. NONE, NTEP and CANADA modes allow the scale to be zeroed in either gross or net mode as

long as the current weight is within the specified ZRANGE. In OIML mode, the scale must be in gross mode before it can be zeroed; pressing the ZERO key in net mode clears the tare.

CONSNU 000000

0 – 999999

Consecutive numbering. Allows sequential numbering for print operations. The consecutive number value will increment following each print operation when the print format used contains the <CN>, or consecutive number formatting token. This value is read only.

The initial value of this parameter is set to the start up value specified on the CONSTU parameter. Changing CONSTU immediately resets the consecutive number used for printing.

CONSTU 000000

0 – 999999

3.3 Revolution® Configuration

The Revolution configuration utility provides another method for configuring the 480 indicator. Revolution runs on a computer to set configuration parameters for the indicator. When Revolution configuration is complete, configuration data is downloaded to the indicator. Revolution supports both uploading and downloading of indicator configuration data. This capability allows configuration data to be retrieved from one indicator, edited and then downloaded to another indicator with an identical hardware configuration. See Section 4.3 on page 47 and Section 5.0 on page 49 for more information about using Revolution.

4.2 EDP Command Calibration

Note

To calibrate the indicator using EDP commands, the indicator COM 1 port must be connected to a terminal or computer. See Section 6.0 on pa ge 51 for more information about using EDP commands.

Once the indicator is connected to the sending device, use the following steps:

1. Place the indicator in configuration mode (display reads

CONFIG) and remove all weight from the scale

platform. If your test weights require hooks or chains, place them on the scale for zero calibration.

2. Send the SC.WZERO EDP command to calibrate zero. The indicator displays

*CAL* while calibration is in

progress.

3. Place test weights on the scale and use the SC.WVAL command to enter the test weight value in the following format:

WVAL=nnnnnn<CR>

4. Send the SC.WSPAN EDP command to calibrate span. The indicator displays *CAL* while calibration is in progress.

5. T o remove an offset value, clear all weight from the scale, including items used to hang test weights, and then send the SC.REZERO EDP command. The indicator displays

*CAL* while the zero and span calibrations are

adjusted.

6. Send the KUPARROW EDP command to exit configuration mode.

4.3 Revolution Calibration

To calibrate the indicator using Revolution, the indicator COM 1 port must be connected to a PC running the Revolution configuration utility.

Use the following procedure to calibrate the indicator:

4.4 More About Calibration

The following provides additional information about WVAL and how to manually tweak a calibration up or down.

WVAL

When a WVAL number is entered that uses a decimal point, the value will be rounded when displayed.

Example: A precision value such as 2455.23 is entered by the operator, but when the operator returns to the WVAL

display, the number is rounded to 2455. A higher precision value can be entered for WVAL when the Display division is greater than 1, such as X2, X5 or X10.

Millivolt Values

Zero is the dead weight millivolt value and Span is the test weight millivolt value, so the total millivolts equals Zero

plus Span.

4.4.1 Adjusting Final Calibration

Calibration may be affected by environmental factors including wind, vibration and angular loading.

Example: A strain test may determine that at 2000 lb the calibration is 2 lb high. In this case, final calibration can be

tweaked by changing WVAL to 999 lb. This adjustment provides a linear correction of 1 lb per 1000 lb.

T o adjust the final calibration, return to the to adjust calibration up or down. Press to save the value. Press to return to the CALIBR menu.

6.0 EDP Commands

Note

EDP commands are case sensitive. Commands must be entered in upper case.

The 480 indicator can be controlled by a computer or remote keyboard connected to one of the indicator’s communication ports. Control is provided by a set of EDP commands that can simulate front panel key press functions, display and change setup parameters, and perform reporting functions. This section describes the EDP command set.

6.1 The EDP Command Set

The EDP command set can be divided into five groups: key press commands, reporting commands, the RESETCONFIGURATION special function command, parameter setting commands and transmit weight data commands.

When the indicator processes an EDP command, it responds with the message the command was received and has been executed. If the command is unrecognized or cannot be executed, the indicator responds with

??.

The following sections list the commands and command syntax used for each of these groups.

6.1.1 Key Press Commands

Key press EDP commands (see Table 6-1) simulate pressing the keys on the front panel of the indicator. Most commands can be used in both setup and weighing mode. Several of the commands serv e as pseudo keys, providing functions that are not represented by a key on the front panel.

For example, to enter a 15 pound tare weight using EDP commands:

1. Type K1 and press

2. Type K5 and press

3. Type KTARE and press

Enter (or Return). Enter.

Enter. The display shifts to net mode when the tare is entered.

OK. The OK response verifies that

6.1.2 Reporting Commands

Note

Reporting commands (see Table 6-2) send specific information to the selected port. These commands can be used in both setup mode and weigh mode.

Command Function

DUMPALL Lists all parameter values. DUMPAUDIT Lists audit data information. P Writes current displayed weight with units identifier. See Section 9.2 on page 61 for more information. ZZ Writes current weight and annunciator status. See Section 9.2 on page 61 for more information. S Writes one frame of stream format. VERSION Returns the currently installed firmware version.

Table 6-2. EDP Reporting Commands

6.1.3 The RESETCONFIGURATION Command

The RESETCONFIGURATION command can be used to restore all configuration parameters to their default values. Before issuing this command, the indicator must be placed in configuration mode.

This command is equivalent to using the DEFLT function on the TEST menu. See Section 9.1.2 for more information about test mode and using the TEST menu.

All load cell calibration settings are lost when the RESETCONFIGURATION command is run.

6.1.4 Parameter Setting Commands

Parameter setting commands allow the display or change of the current value for a particular configuration parameter.

Current configuration parameter settings can be displayed in either setup mode or weigh mode using the following syntax:

command<ENTER>

Most parameter values can be changed in setup mode only; setpoint parameters listed in Table 6-10 can be changed when in weighing mode.

Use the following command syntax when changing parameter values:

command=value<ENTER>, where value is

either a number or a parameter value. Use no spaces before or after the equal (=) sign. If an incorrect command is typed, the display reads

The 480 provides multiple print formats, GFMT, NFMT, ACCFMT and SPFMT, that determine the format of the printed output when the GFMT is used.

Each print format can be customized to include up to 300 characters of information, such as company name and address, on printed tickets. Use the indicator front panel (PFORMT menu) to customize the print formats.

Display will only show capital letters. Press the down arrow to view the ASCII character decimal value on the second menu level. Refer to Table 9-6 on page 72 and Table 9-7 on page 73 to view the ASCII character charts.

7.1 Print Formatting Tokens

T able 7-1 lists tokens that can be used to configure the print formats. Tokens included in the format strings must be enclosed between < and > delimiters. Any characters outside of the delimiters are printed as text on the ticket. Text characters can include any ASCII character that can be printed by the output device.

<G> Gross weight in displayed units. <G2> Gross weight in non-displayed units. *** <N> Net weight in displayed units. <N2> Net weight in non-displayed units. *** <T> Tare weight in displayed units. <T2> Tare weight in non-displayed units. *** <A> Accumulated weight in displayed units. <AC> Number of accumulator events (5 digit counter). <AD> Date of last accumulator event. <AT> Time of last accumulator event. <UID> Unit ID number <CN> Consecutive number <NLnn> New line (nn = number of termination (<CR/LF> or <CR>) characters).* <SPnn> Space (nn = number of spaces).* <SU> Toggle weight data format (formatted/unformatted). ** *** <TI> Time <DA> Date (prints 4 digit year) <TD> Time & Date <SCV> Setpoint captured value. <STV> Setpoint target value. <SPM> Setpoint mode (Net or Gross) <SN> Setpoint number Gross, net, and tare weights are 9 digits in length, including sign (10 digits with decimal point)

followed by a space and a two-digit units identifier. Total field length with units identifier is 12 (or 13) characters.

UID and consecutive number (CN) fields are 6 characters in length. * If nn is not specified, 1 is assumed. Value must be in the range 1–99. ** After receiving an SU command, the indicator sends unformatted data until the next SU

command is received. Unformatted data omits decimal points, and leading and trailing characters.

*** Not available if regulatory mode is set to OIML.

Table 7-2. GFMT and NFMT Formats

The <G2>, <N2> and <T2> tokens (Table 7-1) print the gross, net and tare weights in the units not currently displayed on the indicator.

The 300 character limit of each print format string includes the output field length of the print formatting tokens, not the token length. For example, if the indicator is configured to show a decimal point, the <G> token generates an output field of 13 characters: the 10 character weight value (including decimal point), one space, and a two-digit units identifier.

PT (preset tare) is added to the tare weight if tare was keyed in.

7.2 Customizing Print Formats

The following sections describe procedures for customizing the GFMT, NFMT, ACCFMT and SPFMT formats using the front panel (PFORMT menu). See Figure 3-6 for print format menu structure.

7.2.1 Using the Front Panel

Use the PFORMT menu to customize the print formats. Using the PFORMT menu (see Figure 3-6), edit the print format strings by changing the decimal values of the

ASCII characters in the format string.

Some characters cannot be displayed on the 480 front panel (see the ASCII character charts on page 72 and

page 73) and are shown as blanks. The

480 can send or receive any ASCII character; the character printed

depends on the particular ASCII character set implemented for the receiving device.

8.0 Setpoints

Note

Important

Note

The 480 indicator provides eight configurable setpoints for control of both indicator and external equipment functions. Setpoints can be configured to perform actions or functions based on specified parameter conditions. Parameters associated with various setpoint kinds can, for example, be configured to perform functions (print, tare, accumulate), to change the state of a digital output controlling indicator or external equipment functions, or to make conditional decisions.

Weight-based setpoints are tripped by values specified in primary units only.

Firmware versions 1.00 and 1.01 require having a relay board installed for the setpoints to operate.

8.1 Batch and Continuous Setpoints

480 setpoints can be either continuous or batch.

Continuous setpoints are free-running; the indicator constantly monitors the condition of free-running setpoints at

each A/D update. The specified setpoint action or function is performed when the designated setpoint parameter conditions are met. A digital output or function assigned to a free-running setpoint continuously changes state, becoming active or inactive, as defined by the setpoint parameters.

Batch setpoint (BATSEQ = ON) is a digital output associated with a batch setpoint is act ive until the setpoint condition

is met. Then it is latched for the remainder of the batch sequence. To use batch setpoints, set the batching (BATCHG) parameter on the setpoints (SETPTS) menu. This parameter

defines whether a batch sequence is automatic or manual. AUTO sequences repeat continuously after receiving a single batch start signal, while MANUAL sequences only run through once for each Batch Start signal. The batch start signal can be initiated by a digital input (set to BATSTR), or an EDP command (BATSTART).

For a setpoint to be used as part of a batch sequence, its batch sequence (BATSEQ) parameter must be set to ON. If a setpoint is defined and enabled, but its Batch Sequence parameter is set to OFF, the setpoint operates as a continuous setpoint even during batch sequences.

In applications that contain both batch setpoint routines and continuous setpoints, it is good practice to keep continuous setpoints separate from the batch sequence.

Do not assign them the same digital output.

9.1.2 Using the XE EDP Command

The XE EDP command can be used to remotely query the 480 for the error conditions shown on the front panel. The XE command returns two five digit numbers in the format:

xxxxx yyyyy

where xxxxx contains a decimal representation of any existing error conditions as described in Table 9-2. If more than one error condition exists, the number returned is the sum of the values representing the error

conditions. For example, if the XE command returns the number 1040, this value represents the sum of an A/D reference error (1024) and an A/D calibration checksum error (16).

The second number returned ( test for the error condition was run. For example, the value

yyyyy) uses the same bit assignments as shown in Table 9-2 to indicate whether the

yyyyy = 50815 represents the decimal equivalent of the

binary value 1100 0110 0111 1111. Using the bit assignments in Table 9-2, this value indicates all tests were run.

9.2 Status Messages

Two EDP commands, P and ZZ, can be used to provide status about the indicator. These commands are described in the following sections.

9.2.1 P EDP Command

The P EDP command returns the current displayed weight value, along with the units identifier. If the indicator is in an underrange or overload condition, the weight value is replaced with

9.2.2 ZZ EDP Command

The ZZ EDP command can be used to remotely query which annunciators are currently displayed on the indicator front panel. The ZZ command returns the currently displayed weight and a decimal number representing the LED annunciators currently lit. The format of the returned data is:

wwwwww uu zzz

where wwwwww uu is the current displayed weight and units, and zzz is the annunciator status value (see Table 9-3). If more than one annunciator is lit, ZZZ is the sum of the values representing the active annunciators.

9.4 Local/Remote Operation

For systems that require two locations, local/remote support provides function equivalent to that of a Legal for Trade remote display with keypad. Scale data from the local indicator is also displayed at the remote unit, and keypad input from the remote allows transactions to be initiated from either the local or remote unit.

To configure for local/remote operation, set STREAM to local or remote. Once the local unit scale has been configured, use the SERIAL menu, serial commands or Revolution to set the serial parameters for local/remote operation. See Table 3-3 on page 26 for comport option s.

9.5 Audit Trail Support

Audit trail support provides tracking information for configuration and calibration events. To prevent potential misuse, all configuration and calibration changes are counted as change events.

Audit trail information can be printed from Revolution or by sending the DUMPAUDIT serial command. See Figure 3-1 on page 22. Revolution can be used to display audit trail information. The audit trail display includes the legally relevant (LR) version number (firmware version for the code that provides audit trail information), a calibration count and, if REGULA=NTEP or Canada, a configuration count. The exact format of the information shown depends on the regulatory agency specified for the REGULA (PROGRM menu) parameter.

See Section 1.8.10 on page 7 for steps to view the Audit Trail.

For NTEP and Measurement Canada modes, there are two numbers displayed: configuration and calibration. The

configuration number tracks changes to the legally relevant configuration parameter changes. The calibration number tracks changes to the scale calibration.

In OIML mode, the only number displayed is audit trail. The audit trail number is incremental for any legally

relevant configuration parameter changes and all calibration changes. The last date the scale was calibrated is also displayed.

9.6 Sleep Mode

Firmware version 1.03 and newer of the 480 features a sleep mode. It is designed to place the indicators into a low power mode to reduce power consumption.

The sleep mode will only activate if the indicator is operating on its internal optional battery. If connected to external AC power, the indicator will not go into sleep mode regardless of the parameter settings.

The indicator will enter the sleep mode, after the time specified in the detected and the displayed weight is below the weight threshold ( disables the sleep mode.

Standby

While in sleep mode, at a time specified in the standby (STDBY) parameter, the indicator wakes up for about 0.5 seconds. The range of the standby time is 1 to 60 seconds. During the awake time, it checks for a change in weight greater than the display division threshold (DDTHRH), or if the weight has gone above the weight threshold (WGTHRH). It also checks to see if a key is being pressed and performs zero tracking.

Local/Remote Operation 65

Page 73

Example:

Note

If the standby parameter set to 1 second, the weight threshold to 100, and the display division threshold is set to 10d, once in sleep mode, the indicator will wake up every second for about half a second to check to see if a key is being pressed, the weight threshold is over 100 (WGTHRH), or the weight has change more than 10d (DDTHRH) since the last time it checked.

Setting the standby parameter to a higher value reduces the amount of time the indicator is awake, this will increase battery life.

OFF setting stops the indicator from waking up. The only way to wake up the indicator is to press the Power key.

The Power key is the only key that will wake the indicator, unless the Standby parameter is set to any setting other than NONE. Then any key press will work to wake the indicator from standby.

9.7 Internal Battery Option

In Firmware version 1.03 and later, an optional internal rechargeable Li-ion battery is available. The battery can replace the AC power when needed. Typical run time is 12 hours (single load cell, no options, with LED display). The amount of time the indicator will operate on the battery depends on:

• Type of display (LED)

• If sleep mode is used or not

• How may load cells are attached

• What options are installed

The battery is automatically charged when the indicator is connected to AC power. It automatically switches to battery power if the AC power is removed. The battery is designed to only be charged by connecting to AC power.

When operating on battery power, the indicator features a sleep mode that allows the indicator to go into a low power mode. Using the sleep mode helps improve battery life. See Section 9.6 for more information about the sleep mode.

When the battery life reaches 5-10 percent of capacity, the less than 5 percent, it will flash faster, at 0 percent, the indicator will turn off. Battery char ge time is approximately 16 hours to 100 percent.

Lo Bat flashes on the display. When the battery life is

9.8 USB Option

In firmware version 1.03 and later, an optional Ethernet/USB board is supported. The USB connection is capable of being either of the following:

• USB device (connected to a PC and appearing as an available communication port)

• USB host interface to a flash drive

• USB interface to printer

The mode of the USB option is selected in the User Menu.

9.8.1 HOST

When set to HOST mode, the USB port can be connected to a USB connection on a PC. An HCC Driver is required on the PC.

The HCC driver is available on a CD (PN 171153) that is included with the USB/Ethernet Option. Use the documentation (PN 171152) for the option to install the driver on the PC.

When connected to a PC, the connection will appear to applications as another serial communications port. Using the USB trigger parameter in the 482 user menu, it is possible to set the port to act as both a serial command port and demand print port ( used through the USB HOSTPC port.The USB port cannot be used to stream data.

9.8.2 Flash Drive

When set to Drive mode, the USB port can be connected to a flash drive to allow the upload and download of the indicator configuration parameters. The data is written to the drive in a FA T32 system format; no special drivers are required.

To use with a flash drive, first configure the the drive, or loading it from the drive, can only be done in the configuration menu.

9.9 Ethernet Option

In firmware version 1.03 and later, an optional Ethernet/USB board is supported. With the Ethernet option installed, the 480 can either be connected directly to a PC via the Ethernet connection, or

to an Ethernet network. The 480 Ethernet option will support two simultaneous connections, one as a server, the other a client. It can be set

up with a static, or DHCP-provided IP address. Both ports can be used to communicate to the indicator using all the available serial EDP commands. Both ports can be set to print on demand and can stream data.

The server port has a configurable TCP port number, and can accept a single remote client connection. The client port can be configured to connect to a remote server’s IP and TCP port number upon power up, or

whenever there is data to send. Connection is made via a RJ45 connector inside the indicator on the Ethernet/USB option board. For details on all the configurable parameters for the optional Ethernet ports, see Section 3.1.3 on page 28.

9.10 Conversion Factors for Secondary Units

Note

The 480 has the capability to mathematically convert a weight into many different types of units and instantly display those results with a press of the

Secondary units can be specified on the Format menu using the

Multipliers are preconfigured within the indicator.

Ensure that the secondary decimal point position is set appropriately for the scale capacity in the secondary units. If the converted value requires more digits than are available, the indicator will display an overflow message (OVERFL).

For example, if the primary units are short tons, secondary units are pounds, and the secondary decimal point is set to

8888.88, the indicator will overflow if five tons or more are applied to the scale. With 5 tons applied, and a conversion factor of 2,000, the secondary units display needs five digits to the left of the decimal point to display the 10,000 pound secondary units value.

9.11 Digital Filtering (DIGFIL)

Digital filtering is used to create a stable scale reading in challenging environments. The 480 (firmware version

1.03 and later) allows selection of for no filtering.

The A/D sample rate must be selected first (see Section 9.11.1). Then select the type of digital filter using the

DIGFIL parameter.

9.11.1 Sample Rate (SMPRAT)

The A/D sample rate is the number of weight readings the indicator takes per second ( 20 or 40 Hertz, or readings per second.

Set the A/D sample rate to the lowest setting required f or the application. Lo wer settings result in better stability, so 5 Hertz is more stable than 40 Hertz.

Adaptive Filtering (see Section 9.11.2), Rolling Filtering (see Section 9.11.3) or OFF

SMPRAT). This can be 5, 10,

9.11.2 Adaptive Filter

The adaptive filter has two settings, sensitivity (

AFSENS) and threshold (AFTHRH). It maintains a running average

of the A/D readings when the weight change remains less than the defined Threshold value. The filter automatically applies less value to each successive A/D reading the longer the weight change is less than the Threshold value. The amount of value given to the most recent A/D reading is determined by the sensitivity setting.

Adaptive Filter Sensitivity (AFSENS)

Adaptive filter sensitivity (AFSENS) can be set to HEAVY, MEDIUM or LIGHT. A heavy setting will result in an output that is more stable to weight changes, than that of light. However , small changes in weight data (a few grads) on the scale base will not be seen as quickly.

If the difference in typical subsequent weight values on the scale will only be a few grads, use a light setting. On a truck scale where the changes in subsequent weight values will be 100s of grads, a heavy setting will be more appropriate. When the weight has not exceeded the Threshold ( approximately 30 A/D cycles for

The adaptive filtering threshold (AFTHRH) should be set for the amount of observed instability in the system. This parameter can be set in the range of 0 to 99999 and is entered as a weight value. When a new sampled weight value is acquired, the adaptive filter compares the new value to the previous (filtered) output value.

If the difference between the new value and the previous output value is greater than the

AFTHRH parameter the

adaptive filter is reset to the new weight value. If the difference between the new value and the previous output value is less than the

AFTHRH parameter, the two

values are averaged together using a weighted average. The weighted average is based on the amount of time the system has been stable, and selected

AFSENS sensitivity.

With the adaptive filter threshold set at zero, determine the amount of instability that is present. Enter this amount of weight instability to set the threshold of the adaptive filter. The adaptive filter is set to

9.11.3 Rolling Averaging Filter

The rolling averaging filter uses mathematical averaging with three stages. These configurable stages control the effect of a single A/D reading on the displayed weight. When an A/D reading is encountered that is outside a predetermined band, the rolling averaging filter is overridden and the display jumps directly to the new value.

Filter Stages (RFSTG1-3)

The filter stages can each be set to a value of 1 to 64. The value assigned to each stage sets the number of readings received from the preceding filter stage before averaging. Setting the filter stages to 1 effectively disables the rolling filter.

A rolling average is passed to successive filtering stages for an overall filtering effect that is effectively a weighted average of the product of the values assigned to the filter stages ( corresponding to the sum of the values (

Filter Sensitivity (RFSENS) and Threshold (RFTHRH)

RFSTG1 + RFSTG2 + RFSTG3).

RFSTG1 x RFSTG2 x RFSTG3) within a time frame

The rolling averaging filter can be used by itself to eliminate vibration effects, but heavy filtering also increases settling time. The

RFSENS and RFTHRH parameters can be used to temporarily override filter averaging and

improve settling time.

RFSENS specifies the number of consecutive A/D readings that must fall outside the filter threshold

• (RFTHRH) before filtering is suspended.

•

RFTHRH sets a threshold value, in display divisions. When the specified number of consecutive A/D

readings (RFSENS) fall outside of this threshold, filtering is suspended. Set RFTHRH to NONE to turn off the filter override.

Rolling Averaging Filter Parameters

1. In setup mode, set the rolling filter stage parameters (RFSTG1-3) to 1.

2. Set

RFTHRH to NONE.

3. Return to weigh mode.

4. Remove all weight from the scale, then watch the indicator to determine the magnitude of vibration effect on the sc

parameter in step 8.

Example – if a heavy-capacity scale (10000x5lb) produces vibration-related readings of up to 50 lb, with occasional spikes to 75 pound, record 50 pound as the threshold weight value.

to reset the averaging filter so the response to a rate change is faster.

8. Calculate the div

isions (

RFTHRH parameter value by converting the weight value recorded in step 5 to display

Threshold_Weight_Value / Display_Divisions).

In the example in step 5, with a threshold value of 50 pound, and a display divisions value o f 5 pound, RFTHRH should be set to 10 display divisions.

9. Set the

RFSENS parameter high enough to ignore transient peaks. Longer transients (typically caused by

lower vibration frequencies) will cause more consecutive out-of-band readings, so RFSENS should be set higher to counter low frequency transients.

9.12 Analog Output Calibration

Note

The following calibration procedure requires a multimeter to measure voltage or current output from the analog output module. See Figure 3-15 for analog output menu structure.

The analog output must be calibrated after the indicator itself has been configured (see Section 3.0) and calibrated (see Section 4.0).

1. Enter configuration mode and go to the ALGOUT menu (see Figure 3-15).

• S et source to

•Set

OFFSET to 0% for 0–10V/0-20mA output, 20% for 2-10V/4–20 mA output MIN to lowest weight value to be tracked by the analog output MAX to highest weight value to be tracked by the analog output

Calibrate the minimum weight value for 0 mA, even if a 4-20 mA output will be used. After the calibration is complete, select the 20% offset.

If set to a 20% offset, the lowest value tracked will be 4 mA. To use a value lower than 4mA, use the 0-20 mA setting.

2. Connect multimeter to analog output:

• For voltage output, connect voltmeter leads to pins three and four

• For current output, connect ammeter leads to pins one and two

3. Adjust the zero calibration: Scroll to the multimeter. Press or to select the digit to edit and or to adjust the value of selected (flashing) digit to set the zero value.

4. Adjust span calibration: Scroll to the Press or to select the digit to edit and or to adjust the value of selected (flashing) digit to set the span value.

5. Final zero calibration: Return to the Press or to select the digit to edit and or to adjust the value of selected (flashing) digit to set the zero value.

6. Return to weigh mode. Analog output function can be verified using test weights.

In addition to weigh and setup modes, test mode provides a number of diagnostic functions for the 480, including:

• Display raw A/D count

• Reset configuration parameters to default values

• Number of weighments over threshold

• View the state of the digital inputs

• Control the state of the digital outputs

• Test the analog output
