2.2 Getting Started

ScCMP supports interfacing to MSI ScaleCore products from serial (RS-232) or TCP/IP sockets via Ethernet (802.3) or WiFi (802.11). The connection depends on the available interfaces of the particular ScaleCore product being used. Please refer to your specific device manual for more details on the interface capabilities.

2.2.1 Making a connection

The ScaleCore device has an auto detect feature for serial interfaces.

If your device is not found, close the dialog, check the device power and data connection to the computer, then run the scan again.

Manual Connection

The last used connection parameters are automatically entered.

Note

1. Select

File, then Open Communications. ScCMP will display the connection parameters dialog. This dialog

allows you to manually enter either Serial (RS-232) or IP host address and port for the device connection. Typical serial connection parameters are:

- Baud Rate – 96

- Pari

- Flow Contr

ol – None

2. Select the serial port name of the local computer port that the ScaleCore device is connected to.

3. Press

OK to open the connection.

Ethernet and WI-FI

Ethernet and Wi-Fi (802.11) communications require the IP addre

ss and port number of the ScaleCore device. The

address is specific to the device installation. The port is typically 2101.

2.2.2 Connection State

When a connection is first opened, the ScCMP application is Searching state, searching the communications interface for an attached ScaleCore device.

The application will continue to search the interface connection is closed.

When a device is found (a response is received), ScCMP will transition to the Discovery state. During which ScCMP is reading the device configuration. This will typically take 2 to12 seconds depending on the

communications speed.

After the device configuration has been read, ScCMP will transition to the Normal state. The normal state allows selection of one of the four device views, detailed in the next section.

e can be found under the Event Monitor section (see Section 3.1.1).

3.0 Views

The ScCMP application provides four main views when communicating with a ScaleCore device.

• Configuration View – All device configuration and setup controls are

• Data View – A complete view of all measured sensor data by the device.

• Single Meter – A virtual meter for a single load

• ABC Meter – A virtual meter for dual load systems that provide monitor both load points, and a sum.

sensor system.

3.1 Configuration View

The configuration view of the active device provides a complete view of the ScaleCore device settings. This interface is divided into tabbed panels that separate the different ScaleCore parameters into logical groups. Each panel provides controls for entering configuration, viewing the current configuration settings and performing related functions.

Complete details on advanced device configuration can be found in Section 6.0.

3.1.1 Event Monitor

The event monitor is located at the bottom of the ScCMP configuration view. This provides a log of activities that the ScCMP application is performing, plus statistics on the communications interface to monitor when communication interruptions occur.

Figure 3-2. Event Monitor

Packet statistics displays the number of good, bad, and retry packets per second of an open device connection. Communications with a ScaleCore device may be in one of five possible states. The diagram shows the possible states and the flow between each.

Event Monitor States

DORMANT

Typically this state refers to a connection that is c

losed (no problem detected). If the connection is open, this state indicates a fatal communications error. The connection should be closed and device communications hardware confirmed before re-opening the connection.

SEARCHING

The searching state indicates the application is polling

the communications interface for a ScaleCore device, that a device has not responded to polling yet. This is the expected default state when a connection is first opened.

If the communication is unreliable, communication packets may be

lost and the application may enter this state to confirm the device is still there. If this state persists, it likely indicates the device is faulty, the communications configuration is incorrect or the connection is broken.

DISCOVERY

Every time a device is first 'discovered', the

application reads the entire device configuration to ensure the application knows precisely the device it is talking to. This state indicates that process is happening. The device configuration can be manually re-read, or may automatically be triggered after a large configuration change. This state indicates good communications, but other user controls are blocked in this state. Typically to read an entire device configuration will take 2 and 12 seconds depending on the communication connection.

NORMAL

The normal operating state indicates communications

are good and normal operations are working. Any enabled

user controls should not be blocked in this state.

CONFIGURING

The configuring state indicates the device configuration is being change

d in response to user input. When a device is in the configuration state, it should be left powered on to complete all memory write operations required. This state indicates good communications, however other user functions may be blocked while the configuration is being written. Additionally , depending on the configuration ch ange, some or all of the device configuration may be re-read. Therefore, after the configuring state, communications may switch to the discovery state. This is normal.

3.2.3 Voltage

Note

A ScaleCore device may have voltage sensors. Typically these are used for monitoring power (battery) levels. The meaning of each voltage sensor is dependent on the device.

Please refer to the specific device User Guide for more details.

Parameter Description

Sensor ID Typical range 5-7 for voltage sensors.

Status Current status of the sensor.

Value The measured voltage value.

Units The current units of measure (Volt).

3.3 Single Meter View

Note

The single meter view provides a virtual meter interface that is intended for single-load-point weighing applications. Following is an example single meter view in ScCMP.

Figure 3-6. Single Meter View

The main weight display shows the current load on the system, the units of measure, the weight mode, plus provides motion indication and center-of-zero (CoZ) indication. The currently selected sensor and the capacity of the sensor are displayed at the top. The display defaults to the first load sensor in the ScaleCore device. To view another sensor, click anywhere on the main weight indicator and a dialog box will appear to enter another sensor number. If there are any errors with the currently selected sensor, a large error message will be displayed on the screen indicating what the fault is.

total and total count information is displayed at the bottom left of the single meter view. This is the total

The information for the currently selected sensor. The total function supports several modes of manual and auto total. Details of the total configuration can be viewed in Section 6.0 on page 19.

Total and statistics may not be updated if the monitor is not enabled from the Edit menu.

Three setpoint indicators showing the Set/Clear state of each setpoint. These setpoints may not be related to the currently displayed sensor. Setpoint configuration can be viewed in Section 6.0 on page 19.

The bargraph ind

icator on the left of the display follows the bargraph function in the ScaleCore device. The first

and last segment values are displayed at the bottom and top of the bargraph respectively. Bargraph configuration can be viewed in Section 6.0 on page 19.

The scale

function controls on the lower right allow the ScaleCore device to be controlled from the computer.

Details of the scale functions are found in Table 3-4.
