Digital inputs can be set to provide many indicator functions, including all keypad functions. Digital inputs are active (on) with low voltage (0 VDC), inactive (off) at 5 VDC. Use the DIG IN menu to configure the digital inputs.

Digital outputs are typically used to drive other equipment. Outputs are designed to sink, rather than source, switching current. Each output is a normally open collector circuit, capable of sinking 250 mA when active. Digital outputs are wired to switch relays when the digital output is active (low, 0 VDC) with reference to a 5 VDC supply.

3.0 Configuration

To configure the 520 indicator, the indicator must be placed in setup mode. The setup switch is accessed by removing the large fillister head screw on the enclosure backplate. Switch position is changed by inserting a screwdriver into the access hole and pressing the switch.

When the indicator is placed in setup mode, the word

CONFIG is shown on the display. The CONFIG menu is

the first of ten top-level menus used for configuring the indicator. Detailed descriptions of these menus are given in Section 3.2. When configuration is complete, return to the CONFIG menu and press the key to exit setup mode, then replace the access screw.

3.1 Configuration Methods

The 520 indicator can be configured by using the front panel keys to navigate through a series of configuration menus or by sending commands or configuration data to the EDP port. Configuration using the menus is described in Section 3.1.3.

Configuration using the EDP port can be accomplished

ing either the EDP command set described in

us Section 9.0 or Version 3.0 or later of

configuration utility.

the Revolution

3.1.1 Revolution Configuration

The Revolution configuration utility provides the preferred method for configuring the Revolution runs on a personal computer to set configuration parameters for the indicator (see Section 5.0 on page 44). When Revolution configuration is complete, configuration data is downloaded to page 45). Figure 3-1 shows an example of one of the Revolution configuration displays.

the indicator (see Section 5.3 on

520 indicator.

Figure 3-1. Sample Revolution Configuration Display

3.1.2 EDP Command Configuration

The EDP command set can be used to configure the 520 indicator using either a personal computer or terminal. Like Revolution, EDP command configuration sends commands to the indicator EDP port; unlike Revolution, EDP commands can be sent using any external device capable of sending ASCII characters over a serial connection.

EDP commands duplicate the fu the indicator front panel and provide some functions not otherwise available. EDP commands can be used to simulate pressing front panel keys, to configure the indicator, or to dump lists of parameter settings. See Section 9.0 on page 50 for more information about using the EDP command set.

Specifies the number of full scale graduations.

The value entered must be in the range 1–9 999 999 and should be consistent with legal requirements and environmental limits on system resolution.

To calculate GRADS, use the formula, GRADS = Capacity / Display Divisions.

Display divisions for primary and secondary units are specified on the FORMAT menu.

Automatically zeroes the scale when within the range specified, as long as the input is within the ZRANGE and scale is at standstill. Selections are ± display divisions. Maximum legal value varies depending on local regulations.

Selects the range within which the scale can be zeroed. The 1.9% selection is ± 1.9% around the calibrated zero point, for a total range of 3.8%. Indicator must be at standstill to zero the scale. Use 1.9% for Legal-for-Trade applications.

Sets the level, in display divisions, at which scale motion is detected. If motion is not detected for 1 second or more, 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.

If this parameter is set to OFF, the standstill annunciator does not light; operations normally requiring standstill (zero, tare, print) are performed regardless of scale motion. If OFF is selected, ZTRKBND must also be set to OFF.

Determines the point at which the display blanks and an out-of-range error message is displayed. Maximum legal value varies depending on local regulations.

Sample rate. Selects measurement rate, in samples per second, of the analog-to-digital converter. Lower sample rate values provide greater signal noise immunity. If instability occurs, use lower sample rate to reduce signal noise.

Selects the digital filtering rate used to reduce the effects of mechanical vibration from the immediate area of the scale.

Choices indicate the number of A/D conversions per update that are averaged to obtain the displayed reading. A higher number gives a more accurate display by minimizing the effect of a few noisy readings, but slows down the settling rate of the indicator.

Enables RATTLETRAP® digital filtering. RATTLETRAP is most effective at filtering repeating vibrations caused by mechanical noise from nearby machines but may increase settling times over standard digital filter selections.

Digital filter cutout sensitivity. Specifies the number of consecutive readings that must fall outside the filter threshold (DFTHRH parameter) before digital filtering is suspended.
