2.7Serial Port Wiring
Serial Port 1 is a bidirectional (full duplex) port supporting active 20 mA current loop communications. Port 1 is
optically isolated through the intrinsically safe I/O barrier.
The UMC 600IS serial port can be configured to communicate directly to a printer, remote display, or other
device using 20 mA communications through the I/O interface barrier (see Figure 2-7). Since the I/O barrier is
totally passive (not powered), the receiving device must also provide an active 20 mA current loop interface.

2.8Troubleshooting and Testing the 600IS
Troubleshooting the system components in a safe area can be done in the normal manner utilizing any test
equipment that is necessary . However, prior to any test or measurement that is done in a hazardous area, the plant
manager or safety official must be notified to obtain permission or specific instructions.
The following basic procedures should be observed to provide a safe installation.
•Follow all plant safety procedures.
•Verify what type test equipment is allowed in the hazardous area.
•Do not bring into the hazardous area any inductive continuity testers.
•Do not bring any capacative discharge type devices into the hazardous area.
•Ask the plant authority if the use of non-sparking tools are required.
2.8.1Troubleshooting
The following should be a guide during the installation of the weighing system in a hazardous location.
•Troubleshooting should only be done by qualified field service scale installation personnel.
•Component level repair is not permitted on Factory Mutual approved equipment.
•A factory trained technician can replace plug-in IS barrier equipment in the safe area.
•It is manditory to return the UMC 600IS to the factory for repair and full testing.
•Tampering with the intrinsically safe equipment voids the Factory Mutual approval.
•Safe area voltage measurements are as follows:
Field replaceable parts are listed below for the UMC
Power Supply Output Voltage
No load8.0 +/- 0.2 VDC
One load cell7.6+/- 0.2 VDC
Four load cells6.5 +/- 0.2 VDC
Table 2-8. Output Voltage
The power supply output voltage can be measured at
the following terminals:
•TB2-4 +VDC (positive lead)
•TB2-5 DC Com (negative lead)
Shorting these terminals will blow the
fuse in the intrinsically safe barrier
module 59267.
Prior to calibration, the UMC 600IS must be digitally
configured, or assigned a set of operating parameters.
The first three parameters are directly related to
calibration and must be set before proceeding to
calibration mode.

3.2Serial Port Configuration
Serial Port 1 is an ASCII-compatible, 20 mA current loop output that is compatable with most printers,
scoreboards, and other remote devices. (Port 2 is not available). Port 1 output can be disabled, set for demand
mode, or set to continuous output data and is optically isolated through the intrinsically safe I/O barrier.
Table 3-7 shows the configuration selections for Parameter 14, which controls the configuration of Port 1. There
is no external access to Port 2 and it should therefore be disabled (Parameter 14.5 set to OFF).
NOTE
: RS232 communication is not available from the UMC 600IS. If RS232 is required, it is recommended that the
Analog Option P/N 19578 be ordered and have U14, C6, C7, C8 and C9 installed.

3.3.2Option 2 – Analog Output
Option 2 enables the analog output option. The following features of analog output are;
•Converts serial data into analog: 0–10VDC or 4–20 mA
•Ordered as a kit, it must be operated remotely from the digital weight indicator
•Self-powered, 115 VAC provides isolated output
•Automatic data checking/verification
•Analog output tracks gross, net, or displayed weight
•Full digital calibration (indicator front panel)
•Serial data “pass-through”
Serial data from the indicator is modified to include scaled information special for the analog output module. The
standard communications are also included to allow the module to pass-through printer or scoreboard
information.
NOTE: The serial pass-through does not have duplex capability.
The analog output is fully isolated with its own power supply and current loop communications. The analog
module can be located remotely up to 1000 feet from the indicator b
ut must be located in the safe area. After
wiring and setting the module’s baud rate, the remaining setup and calibration is done at the indicator.
Specifications
Current output is 4–20 mA with a maximum impedance less than or equal to 600Ω.
Voltage output is 0–10 VDC with a minimum load resistance of 1kΩ.
Test Modes
Switch settings are provided to force the analog output to zero, full scale, or to provide a continuous sawtooth
waveform for system checking.
Error Checking
Serial data is continually checked for parity, valid characters, and presence of communication. Loss of data is
indicated by forcing the analog output to a minimum value of 0.5 VDC or 3.2 mA (approximate). If the indicator is
in an overload condition, the analog output is forced to 5% over full scale. With the 4–20 mA output, an additional
alarm is provided to detect the lack of current (break) in the loop.
Communication Verification
An LED (DS1) is provided on the analog module:
•ON = Communications OK
•Pulse = Communications errors
•OFF = No power
Calibration
Using the host, settings are provided for zero, span, and trim adjustments. The settings are all digital therefore no
potentiometers are required. During the trim adjustments for zero/span, the analog output is forced to the
zero/span previously selected in option mode parameters 2.5 and 2.6. While reading the analog output, the trim is
increased or decreased from 0 to ± 175 until the reading agrees with the values entered in 2.5 and 2.6.

3.3.4Option 4 – Auto Shutoff Mode
The auto shutoff mode can prolong battery life for
applications using the battery input power to the
indicator.
Option 4 allows the indicator to be configured to shut
off automatically when idle for a specified time (1–9
minutes). Parameter 4.2 can be enabled to reset the
shutoff timer if motion is detected on the scale after
the timer is started.
Option 4 is not a “sleep mode”; once the indicator
shuts off, it must be turned on again. With Option 4
enabled, the on/off switch becomes active (see
Figure 3-12) and can be used to restart the unit.
NOTES:
•Option 4 requires hardware setup inside the
indicator enclosure and must be enabled at the

3.3.6Option 7 – Smart Serial I/O
The smart serial I/O option offers flexibility for an
operator to customize the serial output format for
individual system requirements. The selections under
Option 7 can be divided into three groups.
•Customizing of serial output data.
•Setup of MACRO files.
•Those files that affect serial operation.
These sections are addressed in detail below.
Customizing Files
The smart serial I/O option offers flexibility for an
operator to customize the serial output format for
individual system requirements. The selection of the
associated custom print file is performed automatically
by serial port and the data mode (gross, net, total recall,
or special) that the UMC 600IS is currently in at the
time of a print.
The custom print supports:
•Specifying starting and terminating characters
like -STX, CR, LF.
•Adding printer control characters.
•Custom headers and titles.
•Customizing units to ounce, tons, or pounds.
•Customized parameters such as “gross weight”
instead of “GR”.
•Custom insertion of special parameters such as
time/date and identification number.
•Delays where and when required.
•Custom “P” print out in duplex mode.

7. Press the NET/GROSS key to turn on Option 7.
Custom Transmit Files
The indicator has two custom transmit files for Port 1
(there is a third file - file 7.4 - for Port 1, but it is
reserved for future use). Each of the custom transmit
files may contain up to 30 character codes. If you need
a custom transmit to print more than 30 character
codes, you need to use the custom transmit macros
which are explained in a later section. The codes may
be any of the ASCII codes (see Table 6.2 on page 37)
or parameter control codes (see Table 3-20 on
page 29).
The following sections call out what each file is used
for.
File 7.1: Gross Weight Data on Port 1
File 7.1 is used to customize the format of the gross
weight. This changes the way the printout appears
when the indicator is in the normal mode and the
gross weight is on the display.
NOTE: Custom print does not support RS 485
protocol.
3.4Setting Up Custom Transmits
(Smart I/O)
The following sections serve to give a more detailed
explanation of Option 7.
3.4.1Enabling Option 7
To enable Option 7:
1. Put the indicator into digital option
configuration mode by closing front panel
DIP switches 2 and 3. If all of the options are
turned off, the display shows dashes (
2. Press and hold the
ENTER key on the keypad
until the word OPtlon appears on the display.
3. Release the
ENTER key and the display
changes to O P . I o F, indicating that you are
at Option 1 and that it is currently turned off
(o F indicates the option is off, o n indicates
that the option is on). At this point, the ZERO

------).
File 7.2: Net Weight Data on Port 1
File 7.2 is used to customize the net data (for example,
gross, tare and net weights).
NOTE: You must have a tare weight (press the
TARE key) in order for File 7.2 to be printed. Without
a tare weight, the indicator defaults to printing File
7.1 or the standard printout if File 7.1 does not
contain a custom transmit or an invalid custom
transmit.
File 7.4: Special on Port 1
File 7.4 is currently reserved for future use by Condec.
Page 28
Macro Files
There may be times when you need to print more than
the 30 character codes that are allowed in the custom
transmit files (7.1 - 7.4). To do custom transmits larger
than 30 character codes, the indicator provides eight
macro files (7.9 - 7.16) that may be called in from the
custom transmit files. This is done by putting a
parameter code of 600, 601, 602, 603, 604, 605, 606
or 607 in your custom transmit files. Each macro file
can contain up to 30 character codes. You can,
however, call more than one macro in your custom
transmit or even call the same macro more than once.
Any codes that you can enter into the custom
transmits can also be entered into the macro files. A
string of up to 250 characters may be printed by using
a custom transmit and any combination of macro files.
Planning Custom Transmits and Macros
Starting with a very simple example, suppose that you
want to print the TIME and DATE on the weight
tickets using the indicator’s custom transmit feature
(you must enable and configure the TIME and DATE
option: Option 3). The example uses normal weigh
mode.
Although it is not absolutely necessary to write out the
codes first, you may find this advisable the first few
times until you understand doing custom transmits.
These pages could also be put into the job files for
later reference (in case the indicator has to be replaced
for example).
Make sure to denote the specific file you are working
on and add some sort of file description. The indicator
formats the output according to the File 7.1 when the
gross weight is on the display. It is used to print the
gross weight only. You should not attempt to print the
tare or net weights in File 7.1 (you must use File 7.2
for gross/tare/net printouts). If you attempt to print the
net or tare weights from File 7.1, the indicator will
consider that to be an invalid file and print the gross
weight data using its default format.
The Parameter Code Command Chart (see Table 3-20
on page 29) lists special codes that are not actually
sent to the printer, but instead tell the indicator to send
one of its internal parameters such as weight data and
TIME and DATE. All of the parameter control codes
are numbers above 127. The indicator uses an eight
data bit word, meaning that it can only send ASCII
characters 1-127 (0 is a NULL and ignored by the
indicator). The parameter control codes tell the
indicator to print one of the indicator’s parameters or
to call one of the macro files.
At this point, it is recommended that you get your
indicator, printer (hook up per instructions), and
manual and follow along, or read first and then go
through programming with the indicator.
NOTE: Parameters 200-223 are used in the normal
mode.

NOTES:
•When necessary, the start of text (STX)
character tells the printer that data is being
transferred for printing.
•A macro does not repeat the start of text
character. Only the main file has the STX
character.
•Macros can be called as many times as needed
in a print file.
•The code 999 serves as END OF FILE as well as
RETURN TO MAIN PRINT FILE command.
•Files and MACROS have a maximum of 30
lines each.
•If the indicator is in the GROSS mode, it will
print File 7.1. If the indicator has a tare value
entered and is in the net mode, it will print File
7.2.
•It is a good idea to write out the custom print
format you want on a worksheet, then enter it
into the indicator. Keep this in your records for
that indicator - if something happens to the unit,
you will not have to recreate the custom print
format.
Depending on the type of printer that you are using,
you could also send special code sequences to the
printer itself, as long as the ASCII codes are 127 or
lower. For example, with the Epson TM-295 printer, it
is possible to include the code sequence to release the
paper (ASCII characters 27, then 113) after the ticket
is printed. Different printers have different commands
that are available using special codes like this. For
more information about printer codes, refer to the
documentation that was supplied with the printer.
There is one code that has not been covered yet but
may come in handy if working with an older printer,
such as a Hecon tape printer. Code 700 is the
parameter control code that the IS indicator interprets
as DELAY PER SETUP. Some older printers may
have limited buffering capability or memory enough
for just a few lines of text. Therefore, it is very easy to
overrun the printer and you can lose an entire line of
text or get several lines garbled together. To prevent
this, insert a code 700 between the carriage return and
the line feed. This causes the indicator to pause for the
amout of time specified in parameter 14.2. A delay of
1 or 2 seconds should be adequate for most of these
printers.

Entering the Custom Transmits and Macros
After some examples of planning custom transmits
and macros, next enter the first two example files and
see what results.
Follow the diagram in Figure 2-1 on page 4 to connect
the printer through the I/O barrier to port 1 of the IS
indicator.
NOTE: If the printer can not provide an active
current loop to retrieve the information from the
barrier, you must install an interface unit that can
and will output the format used by your printer.
Enable Option 7 if it is not already enabled (see
Section 3.4.1 on page 24). You can then select the
desired custom transmit file (we will enter files 7.1
and 7.2 from the first example) using the
TARE RECALL keys. The TARE key takes you forw ard

SETPOINT and 2 SETPOINT keys step forward and
backward through the individual characters in the file
(the lines on your worksheet). Press the
1 SETPOINT
key to display the first character of File 7.1. If the
custom transmit has never been configured before, the
memory used to store the codes may be in a random
state. This could produce codes that do not seem to
make any sense. Enter File 7.1 per Table 3-15 on
page 26. Exit setup mode.
If the indicator is not displaying the gross mode, press
the
NET/GROSS key to display the gross weight.
Attach a weight simulator to the indicator, then dial
the weight up to 500 pounds and press the
PRINT key.
You get a ticket with the following format:

The first time the PRINT key was pressed, a ticket was
printed using custom transmit file 7.1. With a tare
weight in the indicator and the net weight on the
display, the ticket was printed using custom transmit

have received a few phone calls from technicians who
insisted that the custom transmit was not working
properly when they simply had not done a tare or were
not in the net mode.

4.0Calibration
The UMC 600IS indicator can be calibrated using single slope span calibration or five-point linearization. Zero
must be calibrated (see Section 4.1) before either span or linearization calibration can be performed.
The analog option is calibrated after the unit is calibrated using option 2. Analog output, (Section 3.3.2) provides
settings for zero, span, and trim adjustments. The settings are all digital therefore no potentiometers are required.
During the trim adjustments for zero/span, the analog output is forced to the zero/span previously selected in option
mode parameters 2.5 and 2.6. While reading the analog output, the trim is increased or decreased from 0 to ± 175
until the reading corresponds with the values entered in parameters 2.5 and 2.6.
4.1Zero Calibration
Zero calibration is accomplished by the following steps:
1. Clear the scale (no load).
2. Close SW1-3 (dead load). The leftmost display digit should be flashing

4.3Five-Point Linear Calibration
There are five calibration points (La, Lb, Lc, Ld, and Le) that can be entered sequentially. Calibrations using
fewer than five points will linearize the curve up to the last data point. The curv e is then extrapolated from the last
entry point. For best results, use values of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% of full scale for the five linearization
points.
1. Turn on Option 6 (see Section 3.3.5 on page 23).
2. After performing a zero calibration as described in Section 4.1, place the first test weight on the scale
platform. Allow ten or more seconds for stabilization (motion LED goes out).
NOTE: Straight averaging is applied during calibration.
3. Enter test weight value for the first calibration point using the numeric keyboard.
4. When the display is correct, press the
calibration point entered will then appear with a flashing display prompt
ENT key. The display will read CAL briefly. The value of the last
L_ indicating the next
calibration point to be entered (Lb, Lc, Ld, or Le).
5. Repeat Steps 2, 3 and 4 for Lb, Lc, Ld, and Le with the appropriate test weights.
6. Recheck the zero weight by emptying the scale.
NOTE: AZM is off during calibration. Dead load display provides signal reference.
7. When complete, open all switches on SW1.
8. Re-install faceplate overlay and bracket. Tighten the knurled fasteners. Seal the unit if used in a
legal-for-trade application.
Note: If the response is more critical within a certain range, four of the five points can be in that area. The fifth point is
always 100% full scale.
4.4Calculations Example
Capacity = 200,000 lb x 20 lb
Number of graduations = 200,000 ÷ 20 = 10,000
Configuration:
•Parameter 1 = 100 (10,000 graduations)
•Parameter 2 = 20 (resolution)
•Parameter 3 = 0 (no decimal point)
Other Factors to Note
AZM/PAZ: 1.9% x 200,000 = 3800 lb
Overrange: 103% x 200,000 = 206,000 lb
Minimum calibrated load: 10% x 200,000 = 20,000 lb
Analog Sensitivity
Analog signal input range: 0.7 to 3.2 mV/V
Analog signal sensitivity: 0.3 µV/graduations at 20,000
For H-44 requirements, use a factor of 4 (1.2 µV/grad). If the lower signal range is used for calibration, the
indicator may fail acceptance testing with 0.3 µV/grad.
NOTE: Check for a minimum live load of 12 mV for 10,000 graduations. If less than 12 mV, increase the number of
graduations accordingly.
Live Load Signal Range
The following table gives examples to determine the live load signal range:

5.0Normal Weighing Mode Operations
This section provides the operator with a description
of front panel key functions and associated
annunciators (LEDs) used to operate the UMC 600IS
in the normal weighing mode.
After the unit has been configured and calibrated, the
unit is then placed in the weighing or normal
weighing mode (SW 1-1 through SW 1-4 open). In
this mode, the weight indicator displays live weight
data that is presently on the scale.
5.1Display Test
The display check and EPROM verification are used
to test the indicator LEDs.
5.1.1Display Check
Observe the display when power is first applied to the
indicator. All six indicator LEDs (Zero, Net, Gross, lb,
kg, and Motion) should be turned on and each seven
segment display, with its associated decimal point,
will advance across the display field, allowing the
operator to check for any missing segments or decimal
points.
5.1.2EPROM Verification
Upon completion of the display check an EP. 49.x
momentarily appears on the display. This value
indicates to the operator the current EPROM that has
been installed in the UMC 600IS.
5.2LED Annunciators
Table 5-1 shows the display panel annunciator and the
definitions of the annunciator.

5.4Gross/Tare/Net Weighing
Operations
In normal mode, the UMC 600IS displays gross, tare,
or net weights using the LED annunciators to indicate
scale status and the type of weight value displayed.
5.4.1Display Mode on Power Up
When the UMC 600IS is initially powered up, the
display automatically appears in the gross mode.
5.4.2ZERO Key Function
If the gross weight zero is within the zero band, press
the zero key. There are various things that would make
invalid zero conditions. They are:
•Gross weight data above the defined zero band
•Gross weight data in motion
•Overload/underload condition
5.4.3TARE Key Function
If the tare acquisition is greater than zero (+1/2
graduation), the display is set to the net mode and the
new tare is applied.
If the tare acquisition is negative or the scale is in
motion, the indicator stays in the current mode and no
tare is performed.
5.4.4Overload and Underrange Conditions
Overload conditions occur when the weight exceeds
the selected scale capacity by greater than 105%.
Overload may indicate a defective load cell, load cell
simulator input, mis-wiring or no remote sense
connection. External sense leads are required.
NOTE: If the indicator is configured for
legal-for-trade (PTZ = 2%), overload occurs at 103%
of full scale capacity if push-to-zero has already
captured 2% of full scale (105% minus 2% = 103%).
Underload conditions will occur when scale input is
less than -400 grads, or underload may indicate a
defective load cell, load cell simulator input, or no
remote sense connection. Figure 5-2 shows the
indicator display associated with over and underrange
conditions.
See Section 6.1 on page 35 for information about
additional error messages.
5.4.5Lb/Kg Conversion
When Parameter 10 in the configuration mode is set to
Con (conversion), pressing the
toggles the weight display units from lb (calibrated
base units) to kg units (converted units from base
weight data) and vice versa.

5.6.2Demand Mode versus Continuous Data Output
Demand mode is used to interface with printers and
requires a manual Print command from the front panel
to initiate the output data. To comply with
legal-for-trade regulations, demand output data is
inhibited during the following conditions:
•Scale in motion
•Positive overload
•Negative overload
•Negative gross weight displayed
•Unit in display check mode
NOTE:In legal-for-trade applications, the Motion
Detection Parameter (Parameter 9) must be turned ON.
In demand mode, the operator may choose to print
