1.6 Summary of Changes

Changes to recent editions of this manual are listed below:

Version 4.01

• HWSUPPORT returns (see Section 9.1.2 on page 90).

• The new CPU board (PN 109549) was designed to take

advantage of newer

technology and eliminate any parts that are at

end-of-life stage.

• T here is no SDRAM module on the back sid e as the memory is now on the main board.

• Added two additional DIO points, 5 and 6.

• The new boot monitor V1.13 has mapping fo r the new memory.

• The new board requires minimum version

3.14 or newer. Version 3.14 supports

iQUBE

while 4.xx supports iQUBE2.

Version 4.0

• Added support for iQUBE2 and removed support for

NOTE: Version 4.0 requires Rev E CPU board or newer.

Version 3.13

iQUBE.

• Added a new value <AN> to the Print Formatting section of the manual (see Section

6.1, Table 6-1 on page 60).

• Corre cted comparisons to reduce the number of power-up calibrations counted by Audit Trail.

• Added the speed-up of loading a user program by only erasing needed memory blocks.

Version 3.10

• Error Recovery - version 3.10.00 of the 920i now has a very sophisticated error recovery for the battery backed NVRAM. when a Save and Exit is performed after a Configuration and Calibration is performed, a copy of the NVRAM is stored in Flash for future recovery. If the 920i is powered off at any time and the battery is not at peak performance, the NVRAM could come up with corrupted data. The next time the 920i is powered up, the NVRAM is tested for a correct CRC checksum. If this is bad, there will be a special screen displayed showing the corrupt locations with directions to press ENTER to continue. The core will rewrite to NVRAM using the last copy of the last Save and Exit. At this time Date and Time are also checked. It will then open the Date/Time full screen edit function so the operator can check the current Date and Time. If correct, all that is needed is an ENTER key to continue. If incorrect, the operator can adjust the Date or Time and then push ENTER to continue. To ensure the latest copy of NVRAM is available for a power up, it is recommended that before powering down the 920i for either overnight outage or temporary storage, the unit should be put into setup mode and a Save and Exit performed which will save a new copy of the NVRAM. On Legal-For-Trade units, if this cannot be performed, then the

system will use the last Save and Exit and all databases and truck data should be uploaded to a PC prior to powering the 920i down.

• R emoved the EXIT key during Setup mode.

• Adde d a progress message during the clear of memory and loading a user program (see Section 5.6.1 on page 61)

Ensure power to the indicator is disconnected, then place the indicator face-down on an antistatic work mat. Remove the screws that hold the backplate to the enclosure body, then lift the backplate away from the enclosure and set it aside.

2.3 Cable Connections

The universal model of the 920i provides six cord grips for cabling into the indicator: one for the power cord, five to accommodate cabling for option cards. Install plugs in all unused cord grips to prevent moisture from entering the enclosure.

2.3.1 Cable Grounding

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 lockwashers, clamps, and kep nuts provided in the clamps on the enclosure studs adjacent to cord grips. Install grounding clamps only for cord grips that will be used; do not tighten nuts.

• Route cables through cord grips and

nding clamps to determine cable lengths

grou 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 half an inch (15 mm) past the gro Fold the foil shield back on the cable where

cable passes through the clamp. Ensure

the silver (conductive) side of foil is turned outward for contact with the grounding clamp.

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

2.3.4 Digital I/O

Digital inputs can be set to provide many indicator functions, including all keypad functions. Digital inputs are active low (0 VDC), inactive high (5 VDC).

Digital outputs are typically used to control relays that

rive other equipment. Outputs are designed to sink,

d rather than source, switching current. Each output is a normally open collector circuit, capable of sinking 24 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.

NOTE: Digital I/O points can be configured to count

active pulse inputs by setting them to PROGIN (DIGIN menu) and using the

iRite DigInSsBbActivate

handler with a timer to turn the handler on and off. However, the fastest pulse rate that can be counted using a digital input is 10Hz (10 pulses per second). More demanding applications can use the pulse input option card (PN 67603) to count pulses in the 4–4000Hz range.

2.4 Installing Option Cards

Each option card is shipped with installation instructions specific to that card. The general procedure for all option cards is as follows:

Option cards are not hot-pluggable. Disconnect power to the installing option cards.

1. Disconnect power to the indicator. Remove backplate as described in Section 2.2 on page 8.

2. Carefully align the large option card connector with

connector J5 or J6 on the CPU board (see Figure 2-7). Press down to seat the option card in the CPU board connector.

3. Use the screws provided in the option kit to secure the other end

of the option card to the threaded standoffs on the CPU board (see Figure 2-7).

3.0 Configuration

To configure the 920i indicator, the indicator must be placed in setup mode. The setup switch is accessed by removing the large fillister head screw on the backplate of the universal and deep enclosures. Switch position is changed by inserting a screwdriver into the access hole and pressing the switch.

3.1 Configuration Methods

The 920i indicator can be config ured by using the front panel keys to navigate through a series of configuration menus or by sending commands or configuration data to an indicator serial port. Configuration using the menus is described in Section 3.1.3.

Configuration using the serial port can be

complished using either the serial command set

ac described in Section 9.0 or the utility.

3.1.2 Serial Command Configuration

The serial command set can be used to configure the

920i indicator using either a personal computer,

terminal, or remote keyboard. Like

iRev 4, serial

command configuration sends commands to the indicator serial port; unlike

iRev 4, serial commands

can be sent using any external device capable of sending ASCII characters over a serial connection.

Serial commands duplicate the functions available using the indicator front panel and provide some functions not otherwise available. Serial 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 89 for more information about using the serial command set.

3.1.3 Front Panel Configuration

Use the CONFIG submenu under the SCALES menu to configure A/D scales. For example, in an indicator with a single-channel A/D card installed in Slot 1, the Scale Configuration display will show the A/D listed

Multi-range scales provide two or three ranges, each extending from zero to the maximum capacity specified for the range, that can specify different scale intervals (graduations). The scale interval changes as the applied weight increases but does not reset to lower range intervals until the scale returns to zero.

Multi-interval scales divide the scale into two or three partial weighing ranges, each with different scale intervals. The scale interval changes with both increasing and decreasing loads applied.

To configure a multi-range or multi-interval scale, use the SPLIT parameter to select 2RNG or 3RNG (for multi-range scales), or 2INTVL or 3INTVL (for multi-interval scales). Selecting a SPLIT value other than OFF allows specification of decimal point, display divisions, and maximum capacity for each range or interval.

The SPLIT parameter is used to enable multi-range or multi-interval. The SPLIT parameter is in the SCALES menu, see Figure 3-4, and Table 3-2. After setting the SPLIT parameter, the

Format menu

selection will change as shown in Figure 3-6, and Table 3-4.

If using streaming with multi-range or multi-interval, the stream must be set to Custom in

iRev 4. The

Tokens for Secondary and Tertiary Units must be set to L or K to match the Primary, refer to the Serial Menu, Tokens Parameter, in Section 3.2.2 on page 37. They can be set using

iRev 4 or through the front

panel. In multi-range, each range has its own capacity and

display division, extending from zero. The scale display division will increase at the entered range capacities, either two or three ranges. Once the range has increased to the next level, the display division will remain in new range until the scale returns to zero. The tare value can be taken in any range.

For example,

Range 1 is 0 - 3000 x 1 lb. Range 2 is 0 - 10,000 x 5 lb.

In multi-interval, the scale has one capacity, which is segmented into weighing intervals, either two or three intervals, each with different display division sizes. As the weight value exceeds an interval or set interval, the display division will increase, as the weight falls below an interval or set interval, the display division will decrease. The tare can only be taken in the first interval.

For example,

Range 1 is 0-30 x 0.01 lb. Range 2 is 30 - 60 x 0.02 lbs.

3.1.5 Total Scale Configuration

The output of two or more A/D scales or iQUBE2 systems can be configured to function as a total scale. Once configured and calibrated, the total scale can be used as a source for other system functions, including streaming, setpoints, print formatting, and analog output.

To set up a total scale from the indicator front panel, use the scale configuration display (see

Figure 3-2) to

select the A/D scales or iQUBE2 systems to configure as a total scale. (Use the

available A/D scales or

Change Type softkey to show

iQUBE

systems; use the right

navigation key to select the total scale sources.) In

iRev 4, assign the total scale to an unused position then

select source scales from the existing A/D scales or

iQUBE

systems.

The FORMAT configuration of the total scale (see Figure 3-5 on page 30) should match that of the source scales. However, the value specified for the total scale GRADS parameter should be specified as the sum of the GRADS values for the source scales. For example: if SCALE 1 is set to GRADS=10000, SCALE 2 to GRADS=5000, SCALE 3 (the total scale) should be set to 15000 grads.

The total scale will show an over-range indication if the maximum capacity of any source scale is exceeded, and show dashes if any source scale reads a negative value. Source scales will respond to Tare and Zero operations performed on the total scale.

Selects the range within which the scale can be zeroed. The 1.900000 default value 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 the default value for legal-for-trade applications.

Sets the level, in display divisions, at which scale motion is detected. If motion is not detected for the SSTIME (default of 1 second) or more, the standstill symbol lights. Some operations, including print, tare, and zero, require the scale to be at standstill. The value entered must be in the range of 0-100. Maximum legal value varies depending on local regulations.

If this parameter is set to 0, the standstill annunciator is set continuously on, and operations including zero, print, and tare will be performed regardless of scale motion. If 0 is selected, ZTRKBND must also be set to 0.

Specifies the length of time the scale must be out of motion, in 0.1-second intervals, before the scale is considered to be at standstill. Values greater than 10 (1 second) are not recommended.

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.

DELAY

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.

NOTE: When configuring non-A/D scales, set the DIGFLTx parameters to 1 to disable filtering.

See Section 10.9 on page 119 for more information about digital filtering.

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

See Section 10.9 on page 119 for more information about digital filtering.

Digital filter cutout threshold. Specifies the filter threshold, in display divisions. When a specified number of consecutive scale readings (DFSENS parameter) fall outside of this threshold, digital filtering is suspended. If NONE is selected, the filter is always enabled.

See Section 10.9 on page 119 for more information about digital filtering.

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.

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

NOTE: The maximum total sample rate for all configured A/D channels—the sum of the sample rates for all scales—is 1200 Hz. For example, up to ten scales can be configured with 120 Hz sample rates, or up to twenty scales with 60 Hz sample rates.

Rate of Change (ROC) Units Parameters

For applications using the ROC function, the primary scale should be configured with a finer resolution than the rate of change (ROC) units to prevent a stepwise appearance in the ROC display. The ROC display step size (weight increment between displayed values) can be roughly calculated as follows:

(updates_per_ROC_UNIT) * (PRIMARY_resolution / ROC_resolution)

For example, with INTERVL=30; REFRESH =0.1; UNITS=MIN; PRIMARY resolution at 0.1 LB and ROC resolution at 1.0 (LB/MIN):

- INTERVL * REFRESH = 30 * 0.1 = 3.0 seconds per update (ROC data is flushed every 3.0 seconds)

- With UNITS = MIN, there are 20 ROC data updates per ROC time unit: 60 seconds / 3.0 seconds per update

- The resolution ratio of PRIMARY to ROC units is 0.1 (0.1 / 1.0)

- This configuration provides a step size in the ROC display of 2 LB (2 LB increments between displayed values):

20 * 0.1 = 2

Note that setting both PRIMARY and ROC display resolutions to 1 LB would have resulted in a step size of 20 LB.

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.

• INDUST provides a set of subparameters to allow customization of tare, clear, and print functions in non-legal-for-trade scale installations. See Level 4 parameter descriptions

Ta bl e 3-9 on page 47.

The value specified for this parameter affects the function of the front panel TARE and ZERO keys. See Section 10.2 on page 109 for a complete description of TARE and ZERO key functions for each of the regulatory modes.

3.2.8 FLDBUS Menu

The FLDBUS menu is shown only if a DeviceNet, Profibus, EtherNet/IP, or ControlNet option card is installed. The SWAP parameter on the FLDBUS menu enables byte swapping by the

iRite BusCommand handler rather

than requiring a SWP (SWAPBYTE) instruction in the PLC. Byte swapping is enabled by default for DeviceNet cards; for all other fieldbus cards, byte swapping is disabled by default.

• BYTE swaps bytes within the word be

fore transmission to the scanner

• W ORD swaps words 1 and 2, 3 and 4, within a 4-word packet

• BOTH performs both operations, swapping bytes within a

word and swapping words within the packet

• NONE disables swapping

The DATASIZE parameter sets the size of the BusCommand

handler data transfers. The default value (8 bytes) matches the default data size specified in the EDS and GSD files, and used by the standard discrete transfer commands. DATASIZE can be set to any value from 2–128 bytes (1–64 words), but the value specified must match the data size set for the PLC Scanner I/O data size.

6.0 Print Formatting

The 920i provides print formats that determine the format of the printed output when the PRINT key is pressed, a KPRINT serial command is received, or when setpoint push-print or truck weigh-in or weigh-out operations are performed. Supported print formats are: GFMT, NFMT, ACCFMT, SPFMT, TRWIN, TRWOUT, ALERT, AUXFMT1—AUXFMT20, and AUDITFMT. Additionally, two header formats, HDRFMT1 and HDRFMT2, can be inserted into any of the other ticket formats using the <H1> and <H2>formatting commands. The particular ticket format used for a given print operation depends on the indica tor config uration (see page 64) and the particular operation performed.

Each print format can be customized to include up to 1000 characters of information, such as company name and address, on printed tickets. You can use the

iRev 4

configuration utility, serial commands, or the indicator front

™

panel (PFORMT menu) to customize the print formats.

6.1 Print Formatting Commands

Table 6-1 lists commands you can use to format the 920i print formats. Commands included in the format strings must be enclosed between < and > delimiters.

6.4 Customizing Print Formats

The following sections describe procedures for customizing print formats using the iRev 4 configuration utility, serial commands, or the front panel (PFORMT menu. See Section 10.6 on page 112 for information about custom stream formatting.

6.4.1 Using iRev

The iRev 4 configuration utility provides a ticket formatting grid with a tool bar. The grid allows you to construct the ticket format without using the formatting commands (<NL> and <SP>) required by the front panel or serial command methods. Using tool bar and place them where you want them to appear on the printed ticket.

Figure 6-1 shows an example of the

iRev 4, you can type text directly into the grid, then select weight value fields from the

iRev 4 print formatting display.

6.4.2 Using the Front Panel

If you have no access to equipment for communication through a serial port or are working at a site where such equipment cannot be used, you can use the PFORMT menu (see Figure 6-2 on page 66) to customize the print formats.

Each print format can be edited from the front panel using a character selection like that shown in Figure 6-3. Use the navigation keys (

up, down, left, right) to move around and between the format command line and the

character selection list.

Page 73

• To add a character: position the cursor in the format where you want to add the character. Use the up key to return to the character selection list, use the navigation keys to highlight the character to add, then press

enter. The new character is added to the left of the current cursor location in the format string.

• To add a blank space to a string, position the cursor to the right of where the space is to be inserted in the format string, highlight the

SP character in the selection list, and press enter.

• To delete a character, position the cursor to the right of the character to be deleted from the format string, then press the

CLR key.

• To add a special character, insert the < and > delimiter characters from the selection list. Use the numeric keypad to insert the decimal ASCII value (1–255) of the character between the delimiters. For example,

<2> to add the STX character to the print format.

insert

To save the edited format string, position the cursor in the format string and press enter. Softkeys shown on the character selection display provide additional functions:

Default Restores the string to its default value. Home Positions cursor at the beginning of the format string. Cancel Exits without saving changes to the format string. End Positions cursor at the end of the format string. Restore Restores the string to its previously saved value.

A Print Test softkey is shown under the FMT parameter after exiting the character selection display. If a printer is attached, this key can be used to verify the edited string format before exiting setup mode.

NOTE: The Print Test softkey is not available for the HDRFMTx formats. These formats can be output only when inserted into one of the printable ticket formats by using the <H1> or <H2> print format commands.

6.4.3 Using Serial Commands

With a personal computer, terminal, or remote keyboard attached to one of the 920i serial ports, you can use the serial command set described in

Table 6-1 on page 62 to customize the print format strings.

To view the current setting of a format string, type the name of the print format and press the enter key. For example, to check the current configuration of the GFMT format, type GFMT.FMT and press

enter. The indicator

responds by sending the current configuration for the gross format:

GFMT.FMT=<G> GROSS<NL>

To change the format, use the GFMT.FMT or NFMT.FMT serial command followed by an equals sign (=) and the modified print format string. For example, to add the name and address of a company to the gross format, you could send the following serial command:

GFMT.FMT=MOE'S DUMP<NL>2356 EAST HIGHWAY ROAD<NL>SMALLTOWN<NL2><G> GROSS<NL>

A ticket printed using this format might look like the following:

MOE'S DUMP 2356 EAST HIGHWAY ROAD SMALLTOWN

1345 LB GROSS

The ticket above could also be formatted by specifying the company address information in the HDRFMT1 ticket format, then substituting the <H1> command for the address in the GFMT ticket format:

HDRFMT1=MOE'S DUMP<NL>2356 EAST HIGHWAY ROAD<NL>SMALLTOWN<NL2>

GFMT.FMT=<H1><G> GROSS<NL>

7.0 Truck Modes

The truck in/out modes are used to handle multiple truck ID numbers and weights. Truck IDs can be up to 16 alphanumeric characters in length.

Six truck modes combine stored ID, keyed tare, and

lue swapping features in various ways:

Value

Mode Stored IDs Keyed Tares

MODE1 NO YES YES

MODE2 NO NO YES

MODE3 YES YES YES

MODE4 YES NO YES

MODE5 YES YES NO

MODE6 YES NO NO

OFF

Table 7-1. Truck Mode Features

Sto r e d I Ds let you keep a datab ase of truck IDs and

Swapping

weigh-in weights in the indicator’s memory. The indicator can automatically store up to 1000 truck IDs and tares; or it can clear the information after printing a weigh-out ticket. For example, if the same truck seldom crosses the scale, it may not be practical to save its ID number and weigh-in weight. However, if that same truck crosses the scale many times each day, it’s more convenient to store the information in the indicator memory and recall it when needed. Stored IDs and weights are available in modes 3, 4, 5, and 6.

Keyed tares allow you to manually enter the tare

weight using the numeric keypad and the

TARE key.

Keyed tares are available in modes 1, 3, and 5. To use keyed tares, an incoming truck must be empty at weigh-in, full at weigh-out.

NOTE: Some local regulations require the tare weight

to be read from the scale. If so, don’t use the keyed tares feature.

Value swapping ensures that the lowest of two weight

values associated with a particular ID number is used as the tare weight. For example, if a truck crosses the scale fully loaded at weigh-in, then unloads and crosses the scale empty at weigh-out, the indicator automatically assigns the lesser (empty truck) weight as the tare. Value swapping is available in modes 1, 2, 3, and 4.

NOTE: In the OIML regulatory mode, modes 5 and 6

are not allowed to complete a transaction if the outbound weight is greater than the inbound weight. In this case, the indicator will display an error message “Illegal Weighment” because a negative net weight cannot be printed as a legal weight.

7.1 Using the Truck Modes

T o select a truck in/out mode, press the setup switch to enter setup mode. Use the navigation keys to go to the FEATURE menu, then to the TRUCK submenu to select the mode.

Next, go configure the

right to the SOFTKEYS submenu and

Weigh In, Weigh Out, and Truck Regs

softkeys. These keys are required when using the truck modes.

Figure 7-1. 920i Display, showing Truck Mode Softkeys

7.2 Using the Truck Regs Display

The Truck Regs display is shown by pressing the Truck Regs softkey in weighing mode. The display contains an alphabetical list of stored truck IDs, weigh-in weights (in primary units), and the time and date of the weigh-in transaction (see Figure 7-2).

Figure 7-2. Truck Register Display

Softkeys shown at the bottom of the Truck Regs display are described below.

the truck register.

Delete All Deletes all truck IDs from the truck

The truck register can be printed to an attached printer by pressing the

PRINT key while the Truck Regs

display is shown. The printed register uses the TRFMT print format (see

NOTE: If a non-zero setpoint password is configured (SPPWD parameter on the FEATURE menu), you must enter the password before any truck register entries can be deleted.

Section on page 64).

7.3 Weigh-In Procedure

In modes 1 and 2, the indicator erases truck ID numbers and tare weights from memory after the transaction. In modes 3–6,the truck ID and weigh-in weight values are saved after the weigh-out ticket has been processed.

The general weigh-in procedure is as follows:

1. The empty truck moves onto the scale for weigh-in.

2. Press the Weigh In softkey.

3. A prompt is shown to enter the truck ID (up to eight alphanumeric characters). Enter the ID, then press the enter key.

4. Indicator generates the weigh-in ticket:

ID 304812 GROSS 15000. LB INBOUND 01/14/2002 10:24 AM

7.5 Single-Transaction Tare Weights and IDs

One-time transactions are supported in all modes that can be configured to use stored IDs (modes 3–6). This function allows one-time weighing of trucks without adding the truck ID and weigh-in weight to the permanent truck register.

To use this function, press the Weigh In or Weigh Out softkey, then enter a truck ID containing a decimal point. IDs entered with a decimal point as part of the ID are erased from the truck register when the transaction is complete.

5. Truck leaves the scale.

7.4 Weigh-Out Procedure

The general weigh-out procedure is as follows:

1. The loaded truck moves onto the scale for weigh-out.

2. If truck ID is known, press the Weigh Out softkey, enter the ID, and press the enter key.

If ID is not known, press the Tru c k R e g s softkey to view list of stored IDs (see Figure 7-2 on page 68). Scroll to the correct truck ID, note the ID number, then press the

Cancel softkey to return to the weight display.

From the weight display, press in the ID, then press the

enter key.

3. Indicator generates the weigh-out ticket. In modes 1 and 2, the ID is deleted once the weigh-out ticket is processed.

8.0 Setpoints

The 920i indicator provides 100 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.

only.

8.1 Batch and Continuous Setpoints

920i setpoints can be either continuous or batch setpoints.

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 setpoints are active one at a time, in an ordered sequence. The 920i can use setpoints to control up to 100

separate batch processing steps. A digital output associated with a batch setpoint is active until the setpoint condition is met, then latched for

the remainder of the batch sequence. To use batch setpoints, you must activate the BATCHNG parameter on the SETPTS menu. This parameter

defines whether a batch sequence is automatic or manual. AUTO sequences repeat continuously, while MANUAL sequences require a BATSTRT signal. The BATSTRT signal can be initiated by a digital input, serial command,

For setpoint kinds that can be used as either continuous or batch setpoints, the BATCH parameter must also be set ON. (Setpoint kinds that can only be used as batch setpoints do not require the BATCH parameter.) If the setpoint is defined but the BATCH parameter is off, the setpoint operates as a continuous setpoint, even during batch sequences.

NOTE: In applications that contain both batch setpoint routines and continuous setpo ints, continuous setpoints

should be kept separate from the batch sequence. This is especially true when using CONCUR or TIMER setpoints to perform actions or functions based on the batch sequence. CONCUR and TIMER setpoints should not be included in the referenced START and END setpoint sequence.

Batch Start softkey, or the StartBatch function in an iRite program.

NOTE: Weight-based setpoints are tripped by values specified in primary units

Kind Description Batch Continuous

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.

ACCUM Accumulate setpoint. Compares the value of the setpoint to the source scale

accumulator. The accumulator setpoint is satisfied when the value of the source scale accumulator meets the value and conditions of the accumulator setpoint.

ROC Rate-of-change setpoint. Performs functions based on the rate-of-change

(ROC) value.

+REL Positive relative setpoint. Performs functions based on a specified value above

a referenced setpoint, using the same weight mode as the referenced setpoint.

Table 8-1. Setpoint Kinds

70 920i Installation Manual

X X

Page 77

Kind Description Batch Continuous

–REL Negative relative setpoint. Performs functions based on a specified value below

a referenced setpoint, using the same weight mode as the referenced setpoint.

%REL Percent relative setpoint. Performs functions based on a specified percentage

of the target value of a referenced setpoint, using the same weight mode as the referenced setpoint. The actual target value of the %REL setpoint is calculated as a percentage of the target value of the referenced setpoint.

RESREL Relative to a result setpoint. Performs functions based on a specified

percentage of the captured value of a referenced setpoint, using the same weight mode as the referenced setpoint. The actual target value of the RESREL setpoint is calculated as a percentage of the captured value of the referenced setpoint, rather than the target value.

PAU SE Pauses the batch sequence indefinitely. A BATSTRT signal must be initiated to

continue the batch process.

DELAY Delays the batch sequence for a specified time. The length of the delay (in

tenths of a second) is specified on the VALUE parameter.

WAITSS Wait for standstill. Suspends the batch sequence until the scale is at standstill. X

COUNTER Specifies the number of consecutive batch sequences to perform. Counter

setpoints should be placed at the beginning of a batch routine.

AUTOJOG Automatically checks the previous weight-based setpoint to verify the setpoint

weight value is satisfied in a standstill condition. If the previous setpoint is not satisfied when at standstill, the AUTOJOG setpoint activates the digital output of the previous weight-based setpoint for a period of time, specified on the VALUE parameter. The autojog process repeats until the previous weight-based setpoint is satisfied when the scale is at standstill.

NOTE: The AUTOJOG digital output is typically used to signify that an autojog operation is being performed. AUTOJOG should not be assigned to the same digital output as the related weight-based setpoint.

COZ Center of zero. Monitors for a gross zero condition. The digital output

associated with this setpoint kind is activated when the referenced scale is a center of zero. No value is required for this setpoint.

INMOTON In motion. Monitors for an in-motion condition. The digital output associated

with this setpoint is activated when the scale is not at standstill. No value is required for this setpoint.

INRANGE In range. Monitors for an in-range condition. The digital output associated with

this setpoint is activated when the scale is within capacity range. No value is required for this setpoint.

BATCHPR Batch processing signal. The digital output associated with this setpoint is

activated whenever a batch sequence is in progress. No value is required for this setpoint.

TIMER Tracks the progress of a batch sequence based on a timer.

X X

The timer value, specified in tenths of a second on the VALUE parameter, determines the length of time allowed between start and end setpoints. The indicator START and END parameters are used to specify the start and end setpoints. If the END setpoint is not reached before the timer expires, the digital output associated with this setpoint is activated.

Table 8-1. Setpoint Kinds (Continued)

Setpoints 71

Page 78

Kind Description Batch Continuous

CONCUR Allows a digital output to remain active over a specified portion of the batch

sequence. Two types of concur setpoints can be configured:

Type 1 ( VALU E = 0 ) : The digital output associated with this setpoint becomes

active when the START setpoint becomes the current batch step and remains active until the END setpoint becomes the current batch step.

Type 2 (VALUE > 0): If a non-zero value is specified for the VALUE parameter, that

value represents the timer, in tenths of a second, for this setpoint. The digital output associated with this setpoint becomes active when the START setpoint becomes the current batch step and remains active until the timer expires.

DIGIN Digital input setpoint. Requires a specific group of digital inputs to be in low (0

X X VDC) state to satisfy the setpoint. The digital output associated with this setpoint is held in a low (0 VDC) state until the inputs selected for the digital input mask are all in a low state.

AVG Average setpoint. Performs functions based on the calculated average weight

X over a specified number of A/D samples.

Note that this setpoint is based on the raw A/D weight value, rather than the rounded value shown on the indicator display. For example, if the display shows

50.0 but the actual raw A/D value is 49.99, the setpoint will not be satisfied.

TOD Time of day setpoint. Performs functions when the internal clock time of the

X X indicator matches the specified setpoint time.

DELTA Delta weight setpoint. Satisfied when the change in weight on the scale is equal

X to or exceeds the absolute value specified for the setpoint.

CHKWEI Checkweigher setpoint. Allows specification of over- and under-weight values.

Up to three digital outputs can be configured to represent overweight, underweight, and accept conditions.

PLSCNT Pulse counter setpoint. Performs functions based on pulse counts received by

X X a pulse input card.

PLSRAT Pulse rate setpoint. Performs functions based on the pulse rate received by a

pulse input card.

ALWAYS Always setpoint. This setpoint is always satisfied. It is typically used to provide

X an endpoint for true/false branching batch routines.

NEVER Never setpoint. This setpoint is never satisfied. It is used to branch to a

X designated setpoint in true/false branching batch routines in which the batch will not continue through the normal sequence of batch setpoints.

DINCNT Digital input count setpoint. Counts pulses received at the specified digital

X X input.

setpoint, once off, can trip on again.

Allows the digital output associated with a setpoint to shut off before the setpoint is satisfied to allow for material in suspension.

The ON value adjusts the setpoint trip value up or down (depending on the TRIP parameter setting) from the setpoint value using a fixed value specified on the PREVAL parameter.

The LEARN value can be used to automatically adjust the preact value after each batch. LEARN compares the actual weight at standstill to the target setpoint value, then adjusts the preact PREVAL by the PREADJ value times the difference after each batch.

FLOW preact provides dynamic compensation for material flow rate in determining when to shut off the digital output. Rather than waiting for the specified weight to be reached, FLOW preact uses the change in weight over time to anticipate when the TRIP minus PREACT weight value will be reached.

Depending on the TRIP setting specified for the setpoint, the setpoint trip value is adjusted up or down by the PREVAL value.

Preact adjustment factor. For setpoints with PREACT set to LEARN, specifies a decimal representation of the percentage of error correction applied (0.5 = 50%, 1.0 = 100%) each time a PREACT adjustment is made.

Preact stabilization time-out. For setpoints with PREACT set to LEARN, specifies the time, in 0.1-second intervals, to wait for standstill before adjusting the PREACT value. Setting this parameter to a value greater than zero disables the learn process if standstill is not achieved in the specified interval.

Preact learn interval. For setpoints with PREACT set to LEARN, specifies the number of batches after which the preact value is recalculated. The default value, 1, recalculates the preact value after every batch cycle.

Batching Switch

The batching switch option, PN 19369, comes as a complete unit in an FRP enclosure, with legend plate, locking stop switch (mushroom button), and a run/ start/abort 3-way switch.

Both switches are wired into the indicator

’s digital I/O terminal strip as shown in Figure 8-12. Each switch uses a separate digital input.

When configuration is complete, exit setup mode. Initialize the batch by turning the 3-way switch to

ABORT, then unlock the STOP button (the STOP

button must be in the OUT position to allow the batch process to run). The batching switch is now ready to use.

If no digital input is assigned to BATRUN, batching proceeds as if BA

TRUN were always on: the batch will start when the 3-way switch is turned to RUN, but the STOP mushroom button will not function.

during the batch process, the process halts and the button locks in the IN position.

The START switch is ignored while the STOP button is locked in the IN position. The STOP button must be turned counterclockwise to unlock it, then released into the OUT position to enable the 3-way switch.

To restart an interrupted batch from the step where it left off, do the following:

1. Unlock STOP button (OUT position)

2. Turn 3-way switch to START

To restart an interrupted batch from the first batch step, do the following:

1. Turn 3-way switch to ABORT

2. Unlock STOP button (OUT position)

3. Turn 3-way switch to START

NOTE: Use this procedure (or the BATRESET serial

command) to initialize the new batch routine following any change to the setpoint configuration.

8.4 Batching Examples

Example 1

The following example is used to dispense 100-LB drafts, automatically refilling a hopper to 1000 LB gross weight once the gross weight has dropped below 300 LB.

Setpoint 1 ensures that the hopper has enough material to start the batch. If the hopper weight is 100 LB or higher, setpoint 1 is tripped.

SETPOINT=1 KIND=GROSS VALUE=100 TRIP=HIGHER BATCH=ON ALARM=ON

Setpoint 2 waits for standstill, performs a tare, and puts the indicator into net mode.

SETPOINT=2 KIND=WAITSS PSHTARE=ON

Setpoint 3 is used as a reference (relative setpoint) for setpoint 4.

SETPOINT=3 KIND=NET VALUE=0 TRIP=HIGHER BATCH=OFF

Setpoint 4 is used to dispense material from the hopper. When the hopper weight goes below 100 LB net the setpoint is tripped.

SETPOINT=4 KIND=–REL VALUE=100 TRIP=LOW BATCH=ON DIGOUT=1 RELNUM=3

Setpoint 5 is used to evaluate the gross weight of material in the hopper after dispensing. When the hopper weight falls below 300 LB, digital output 2 becomes active and the hopper is refilled to 1000 LB.

SETPOINT=5 KIND=GROSS VALUE=300 TRIP=HIGHER HYSTER=700 BATCH=ON DIGOUT=2

Setpoint 6 is used as a “no flow alarm”. If the process in setpoint 4 is not completed in 10 seconds, digital output 4 becomes active to signify a problem.

SETPOINT=6 KIND=TIMER VALUE=100 START=4 END=5 DIGOUT=4

Example 2

The following example uses a CONCUR setpoint to provide a two-speed simultaneous fill of a hopper to a net weight of 1000 LB.

Setpoint 1 ensures that the gross weight is within 50 LB of gross zero.

SETPOINT=1 KIND=GROSS VALUE=0 TRIP=INBAND BANDVAL=50 BATCH=ON

Setpoint 2 performs a tare once the scale is at standstill.

SETPOINT=2 KIND=WAITSS PSHTARE=ON

Setpoints 87

Page 94

Setpoint 3 uses DIGOUT 1 to fill a hopper to a net weight of 800 LB.

SETPOINT=3 KIND=NET VALUE=800 TRIP=HIGHER BATCH=ON DIGOUT=1

Setpoint 4 uses DIGOUT 2 to fill the hopper to a net weight of 1000 LB.

SETPOINT=4 KIND=NET VALUE=1000 TRIP=HIGHER BATCH=ON DIGOUT=2

Setpoint 5 operates DIGOUT 2 while Setpoint 3 is active, providing simultaneous two-speed filling.

SETPOINT=5 KIND=CONCUR VALUE=0 TRIP=HIGHER START=4 END=5 DIGOUT=2

9.0 Serial Commands

The 920i indicator can be controlled by a personal computer or remote keyboard connected to an indicator serial port. Control is provided by a set of serial commands that can simulate front panel key press functions, display and change setup parameters, and perform reporting functions. The serial commands provide the capability to print configuration data or to save that data to an attached personal computer. This section describes the serial command set and procedures for saving and transferring data using the serial ports.

9.1 The Serial Command Set

The serial 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 a serial command, it respond

ings can be displayed in either setup mode or normal mode using the following syntax:

command<ENTER>

Most parameter values can be changed in setup mode only; setpoint parameters listed in Table 9-6 on

page 95 can be changed when in normal 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 you type an incorrect command, the display reads

??.

For example, to set the motion band parameter on Scale

#1 to 5 divisions, type the following:

SC.MOTBAND#1=5D<ENTER>

For parameters with selectable values, enter the command and equal sign followed by a question

command=?<ENTER> to see a list of those values.
