1 Introduction

Throughout this document the two devices will be referred to as the C500 series.
The C520 digital weight indicator has a green six digit 14 segment LED display with additional indication of weighing status. Each digit is 14mm high. The instrument has 8 setpoints with status display on the front panel. The C530 digital weight transmitter has no display, but can be accessed by the C500 series viewer PC software.
The C500 series can either operate from mains AC supply (86-260VAC 48-62Hz) or from stable DC supplies (12-24VDC).
The setup and calibration are digital, with a non-volatile security store for all setup parameters. The built-in clock can be used to date-stamp printouts. There is an NVRAM store to ensure day to day operating settings (zero, tare, date/time, etc) are retained when power is removed.
Infrared communications ports for easy configuration are available. The C520 provides two (front and rear), whilst the C530 provides one.
• AC power input
• Additional serial ports for RS232 and RS485
• Inputs and outputs
• Analog outputs

2 Installation

2.1 Introduction

The C520 can be used as either a desk-top or panel-mount instrument. The C530 is intended for installation in electronics cabinets. The C500 series contains precision electronics and must not be subject to shock, excessive vibration, or extremes of temperature, either before or after installation. The operating environment must fall within the allowed temperature range and humidity.
The inputs of the C500 series are protected against electrical interference, but excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation and RFI may affect the accuracy and stability of the instrument. The C500 series should be installed away from any sources of electrical noise. The loadcell cable is particularly sensitive to electrical noise, and should be located well away from any power or switching circuits. Termination of the loadcell shield at the indicator end (with a sound connection to the indicator case via the DB9 plug or screw terminal shield connection) is important for EMC immunity.
The C500 series must be installed in a manner and location that is protected from impacts.
Warning!
If the equipment is not installed and used as specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

2.2 Environmental Conditions

The C500 series is designed for use in the following environmental conditions:
• C520: Indoor use only. Although the front of the device can be washed down (as per IP65), the rear of
the device, along with cable attachments and optional accessories, must be protected from liquids and small objects (as per IP30).
• C530: Indoor use only. The device cannot be washed down. The device, along with cable attachments
and optional accessories, must be protected from liquids and small objects (as per IP30).
• Altitude: up to 2000m
• Operating temperature range: -10 °C to 40 °C
• Storage temperature range: -20 °C to 50 °C
• Humidity: Maximum relative humidity of 80% for temperatures up to 31 °C decreasing linearly to 50% at 40 °C
• Mains supply voltage fluctuations: up to ± 10%.
• Pollution degree: 2

2.3 Mounting

2.3.1 C520 Panel Mounting
The C520 fits a DIN 43 700 standard 138(-0/+1)mm x 67(-0/+1)mm panel cut-out. Panel mounting is included standard. To panel mount:
1. Insert the 4 supplied M4 screws in the mounting tabs in the corners.
2. Insert the indicator into the panel and rotate the 4 tabs out from the indicator.
3. Tighten the screws to clamp the indicator into the panel. Do not over tighten.

2.4 Power Connection

The C500 series can be powered from DC or AC supplies.
2.4.1 DC Power
The C500 series requires a 12-24VDC power supply. The supply need not be regulated, provided that it is free of excessive electrical noise and sudden transients. The C500 series can operate from good quality plug-packs of sufficient capacity to drive both the indicator and the loadcells.
The case ground connection is available via the earth stake on the rear of the unit. The resistance measured between the case of the indicator and the nearest earth point should be less than 2 ohms.
2.4.2 AC Power Module
There is an optional AC supply module which requires an AC input of 100-240VAC, 50-60Hz, ≈0.6A. Maximum supply voltage variations should not exceed ±10% of the voltage range specified.
The AC supply module also provides a 12DC 0.5A(max) output. Attachment of the AC module is shown below.
4 C500-600-1.3.0
2.5 Loadcell Connection
2.5.1 Overview
The C500 series can drive any number of full bridge strain gauge loadcells up to the equivalent of 16 x 350 ohm cells (21 ohm load).
The span range of the loadcell outputs (the change of signal from the loadcells between zero load and full gross load) must be within the range of 0.2 to 5.0 mV/V. Very low output scale bases can be used with the C500 series, but may induce some instability in the weight readings when used with higher resolutions. Generally speaking, the higher the output, or the lower the number of divisions, the greater the display stability and accuracy.
When shunting loadcells, use only good quality metal film resisters with high temperature stability ratings. Typical values for zero adjustment would fall within the range of 500k ohms (small effect) to 50k ohms (larger effect).
The C500 series has a mV/V meter test mode which can be used to check scale base signal output levels. Refer to Section 5.8.

Sense lines must be connected. Failure to do this will result in the C500 series displaying an error message (E00040, E00080 or E000C0).
The C500 series offers two loadcell connection options. For replacement of 5000 indicators, the DB9 connection can be used, as shown below:
For new installations, the loadcell adaptor can be attached to the rear of the indicator. This permits easier connection of the loadcell using screw terminals.
5 C500-600-1.3.0
2.5.2 Cable
When wiring loadcells use only high quality shielded multi-core cable. The cable should be run as far away from any other cabling as possible (minimum separation distance 150mm). Do not bundle loadcell cables with power or control switching cables as interference can trigger display instability, and cause unreliable operation.
The loadcell shield must be installed so as to connect electrically with the metal shell of the DB9 plug or screw terminal shield connection in order for the C500 series to provide its full EMC resistance. Any noise absorbed by the cable shield must be conducted as quickly as possible to the indicator case via the DB9 plug shell, then direct to a solid earthing point via the earth terminal in the power input socket (or earthing lug on DC models).
2.5.3 Six Wire Connection
The connection is made using a standard DB9 male plug. The loadcell socket is wired for six wire systems as follows:
DB9 Pin Screw Terminal Pin Function 1 1 Positive excitation 2 5 Positive sense 3 2 Negative excitation 4 6 Negative sense 9 3 Positive signal 8 4 Negative signal 5 7 Cable shield

For screw terminal connections, short the following:
EX pin Short to 1 5 2 6

2.6 EX-I Loadcell Connection

The C500 series can be installed with barriers for EX-i applications. Six-wire connection is necessary in this case to achieve an acceptable performance. The C500 series is not intrinsic safe and must be installed outside the hazardous area. Connections for an EX-I application are:
2.6.1 Non-trade Limits
C520/C530 with zener barrier SD01 (Input signal ≥ 0,2 µV/e, divisions 3000d, loadcells 2mV/V)
No of loadcells Minimum yield of the loadcells 350 Ω Minimum yield of the loadcells 700 Ω 1 7 % 6 % 2 11 % 7 % 3 14 % 9 % 4 17 % 11 % 6 24 % 14 % 8 31 % 18 %
2.6.2 Trade Limits
C520/C530 with zener barrier SD01 (Input signal ≥ 1,0 µV/e, divisions 3000d, loadcells 2mV/V)

The minimum yield of the loadcells is proportional to the divisions. E.g. at 2000d and 4 loadcells 350 ohm the minimum yield is 58%. These calculations are valid for an overall maximum cable resistance of 3.5 ohm per lead. Larger cable resistances increase the minimum yield.

2.7 Optical Communications

A temporary infrared communications link can be established between the instrument and a PC using an optional cable. This connection can be used to transfer setup and calibration information from a PC.
The PC end of the cable is a standard USB connector. The instrument end of the cable attaches to the left side of the indicator display, or the rear of the indicator as shown below.
Warning!
The optical coupling head contains a strong magnet and should not be placed near any magnetic storage media (eg. credit cards, floppy disks etc.)

2.8 Optional Module Connections

Two optional modules can be connected. These provide a range of external drivers and features. See Section 15 and the module datasheets (for module specific connection details).

2.9 Ethernet Connection

A standard 10/100 Ethernet port is provided. See Section 14.

2.10 USB Host and Device Connections

A USB host and USB device interface are provided. See Section 10.
8 C500-600-1.3.0
Warning!
Do not connect the USB host port to another USB host port. It is possible to purchase USB A Male to USB A Male cables as shown in the picture below that permit such a connection. Making such a connection will damage the indicator and PC, voiding the warranty on both devices.

4 Licensing

The C500 series uses licence codes to activate software packages installed on the indicator. All packages with names in the C500-K5xx and L9xx-5xx range will require a license to be entered.
Licence codes are unique for each indicator and can be acquired from the nearest Rinstrum office.

4.1 Unlicensed Packages

If a package requiring a license is installed but not yet licensed, a message like “C500” “K501” “NOT” “LC­NSED” will be displayed when the indicator has finished startup. In this example the package C500-K501 requires a license. Care must be taken to ensure the license entered matches the package name the indicator is displaying.
When an unlicensed package is installed, the indicator can not be used until the package is licensed or unin­stalled.
To allow temporary use of the indicator, license entry can be skipped by pressing the cancel key. The indicator will allow 5 minutes of normal operation before returning to a license entry prompt. If the license is not successfully entered at this stage the indicator will restart.

4.2 Licence Code Entry

To license a package on the C500 series, first install the required firmware (see the Install Firmware section for details). After successful startup, the indicator will prompt the user with the text ‘C500”, “K501”, “NOT”, “LCNSED”. Pressing the OK button will allow the user to enter the licence code.
Once the license code has been entered, press OK. If successful the indicator will prompt “LCNSE” “OK” and the indicator will continue to normal operation.
Note
The JI keys are used to move to the next letter and the HN keys are used to select the appropriate letter.
Alternatively, the network communication command LRP can be used to license pacakges (see Section 21.3.32).

7 Calibration and Trade

7.1 Introduction and Warnings

The calibration of the C500 series indicators are fully digital. The calibration results are stored in permanent memory for use each time the unit is powered up.
Some of the menu settings affect calibration. The BUILD settings must be set before calibration. Changing these settings after calibration may alter the calibration.
All calibration operations are in the CAL menu. Calibration routines are available in full setup only (not safe setup).
The calibration program will automatically prevent the indicator from being calibrated into an application outside its specification. If an attempt is made to calibrate the indicator outside of the permitted range, an error message will show and the routine will be abandoned. Refer to Section 21.
The indicator has a wide-range amplifier section. The non-trade calibration range of the instrument extends well beyond the trade approved range. It should not be assumed that just because the indicator has successfully calibrated a scale, that the scale is correct for trade use. Always check the scale build against the approval specification.

7.2 General Information

7.2.1 Terminology
A knowledge of basic weighing terms is useful in setting up and calibrating the indicator. These terms are used throughout the setting procedure and are defined as follows:
• Weighing range: This is the range of weights which can be measured. The indicator can be setup with 1
or 2 ranges.
• Division / count-by: The smallest unit of weight change which is displayed. This will be different for
each range. This is setup in BUILD:E1 and BUILD:E2.
• Fullscale / full capacity: The maximum amount of weight used on the scale. This will be different for
each range. This is setup in SCALE:CAP1 and SCALE:CAP2.
• Number of divisions: The number of divisions between 0 and full capacity. It is equal to full capacity /
count-by. This might be different for each range. For example, 20000kg / 10kg = 2000 divisions.
• Units: Describes the unit of measurement used for the weight (kg, t, lb, etc).
• Loadcell signal at full capacity: This is the loadcell signal at full capacity.
• Signal resolution: This is the change in loadcell signal for each division.
Example:
• A 10000kg, 2.0mV/V loadcell is used in an application with a 5000kg capacity, displaying in 5kg steps.
• The values of each of the above terms is:
– Units = kg
– Capacity = 5000kg
– Count-by = 5kg
• Number of divisions = 1000 divisions
38 C500-600-1.3.0
• The loadcell signal at full capacity = (5000kg / 10000kg) x 2.0mV/V = 1.0mV/V
• The signal at capacity = 5V excitation * 1.0mV/V = 5mV
• The signal resolution = 5mV / 1000 divisions = 5 µV/division
7.2.2 Dual Interval and Dual Range Operation
The indicator provides single range, dual interval and dual range modes. In non-trade operation, up to 100,000 divisions are available so it is rare for the precision of the displayed reading to be a problem. However in trade applications where the number of divisions that can be legally displayed is limited, the use of dual interval or dual range operation allows greater precision in the displayed readings without exceeding the maximum number of graduations available in the certification of the loadcell.
Both of these modes of operation allow for the indicator to operate with 2 count-by settings so that it is possible to weigh for example up to 2 kg in 1g increments and then up to 5kg in 2g increments.
Dual interval and dual range are identical in many respects and can be treated the same for the purposes of setup and calibration. The difference in the two comes about in the operation of the scale. With dual range operation the range is determined based on the gross weight. Once the scale changes from low range to high range it will not change back to low range until the scale is returned to a stable zero reading. Dual interval operation however is based on the net weight and no restrictions are placed on the change from the high interval to the low interval. With dual interval operation it is therefore possible to weigh in the low interval with high tare weights.
The indicator is equally accurate in either mode but due to hysteresis effects with many loadcells it may not be possible to operate accurately in dual interval mode. In these cases dual range mode ensures that the weight readings taken from the loadcell are accurately displayed during loading and unloading operations.
7.2.3 Direct mV/V Operation
It is possible to calibrate the indicator without test weights if the output capacity of the loadcell is known. For applications like silo weighing etc where it is impractical to use test weights this mode of operation allows the mV/V signal strength at no load, as well as the mV/V signal strength of the span to be entered directly. This type of calibration is only as accurate as the loadcell output figures but for many applications this is more than adequate. For more details see Section 7.6.
7.2.4 Maintenance Date
The indicator is able to indicate when it is due for recalibration or regular maintenance. This is set in CLOCK: QA.OPT and CLOCK:QA.DATE. When the due date is reached, the indicator displays (CAL) (DUE). Pressing any
key will hide this message temporarily. This message can only be disabled by changing the QA settings (which requires full setup).
7.2.5 Filtering Techniques
The indicator has a number of advanced filtering options which allow it to be optimized to produce the most accurate readings possible in the shortest time. There is a trade-off between noise reduction and step response time.
Note
The step response is the time between placing a weight on the scale and the correct weight reading being displayed.
39 C500-600-1.3.0
FIR Filter:
• The first level of filtering provided is a FIR filter that is linked to the measurement rate. The measurement
rate is set in BUILD:SYNC. This filter is a very high performance ’tuned’ filter that provides up to 180 dB of attenuation at multiples of the SYNC frequency and broad band filtering of between 40 and 80 dB generally. For example, setting the SYNC frequency at 25Hz would provide 180 dB of noise rejection at 25, 50, 75 . . . Hz.
• The primary noise source is the mains power so the SYNC is usually set to half the mains frequency or
the mains frequency. For example, with 50Hz mains power, use 12.5, 25 or 50Hz SYNC frequency. The FIR filter introduces a delay of 3 samples to the step response. So for a SYNC frequency of 50Hz (i.e. readings every 20 milliseconds) there is a delay of 60 milliseconds between a weight change and the final weight reading (before averaging is applied).
Digital Averaging:
• In addition to the FIR filter the indicator has two levels of digital averaging.
• The first is a fixed length sliding window average where the average of the last ’n’ readings is calculated.
As each new reading is taken the oldest reading is discarded and a new average calculated. The length of the window is set in OPTION:FILTR from 1 reading to 200 readings. Increasing the average will increase the step response. For example an average of 10 readings with a SYNC frequency of 50Hz gives a step response = (10 + 3) / 50Hz = 0.26 seconds.
• The second average is similar to the first but has a variable length which grows from 1 reading up to a
maximum of 10 readings. If a disturbance on the scale is detected the old readings are discarded and a new average starts all over again. Each of the 10 readings is calculated over the window length of the fixed average. In this way very long term averages are calculated without causing any delays. The amount of fluctuation that causes the average to be restarted can be selected as FINE or COARSE in OPTION:JITTER. The COARSE setting is more tolerant of weight change than the FINE.
7.2.6 Subtractive and Additive Tare
The indicator can operate subtractive and additive tare:
• Subtractive tare: The weight tared is subtracted from the total weight that can be measured. For
example, if the scale capacity is 100kg and the tare is 40kg, then the scale can only measure a maximum 60kg NET.
• Additive tare: The weight tared is not subtracted from the total weight that can be measured. For
example, if the scale capacity is 100kg and the tare is 40kg, then the scale can still measure to a maximum 100kg NET. The maximum amount of additive tare is setup in BUILD:AD.TARE.

9 Printing

9.1 Overview

Four print formats are available. They are based on a 20 or 40 column width printer and may be printed on a 20 or 40 column tally roll serial printer, or a 80 column dot matrix serial printer.
Printing may be triggered manually by a configured print key or automatically (auto-printing). Auto-printing prints when the scale reaches no motion with a weight above the zero band.
The printout will be sent to one printer only. If a USB printer is connected, this is used. Otherwise, the lowest serial port number which is configured as a printer is used. For example, if SERIAL:SER.M.1A:TYPE=PRINT and SERIAL:SER.M.2A:TYPE=PRINT, the printout will be sent via module 1 A port only.
The print format and manual/auto-printing are selected using SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP. The following table shows the options:
Format
Single line printout SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP= SINGLE / A.SING Example: 0005 05/10/94 16:47 3654 kg G Double line printout SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP= DOUBLE / A.DOUB Example: 0005 05/10/94 16:47
Ticket printout SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP= TICKET / A.TICK Example: WEIGHT
Total printout SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP= TOTAL / A.TOTAL Example: 000491 01/01/1999 10:35:08 100.2 kg G

9.2 Custom Ticket Headers

A custom header is available for ticket printouts (SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP=TICKET or A.TICK) in the SERIAL:PRN.OPT:HEADER setting. Up to 6 lines of 30 characters can be entered.
Within this setting item, the display shows each of the heading characters in turn using the following format:
L.CC.XXX
where:
• L: the line number (1..6)
• CC: the position of the character in that line (01..30)
• XXX: the ASCII code for the printed character
48 C500-600-1.3.0
9.2.1 Example
The following table shows the coded entry for “JOE’S FRUIT & VEG”. The ‘J’ would be entered as 1.08.074 for line 1, column 8, ASCII Code 74.
# 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 1 J O E ’ S

32 32 32 70 82 85 73 84 32 38 32 86 69 71 32 32 32 32 32 32

9.3 Custom Ticket Format

Custom ticket formats can be entered in the SERIAL:PRN.OPT:TIC.FMT setting. Up to 250 characters can be entered to define the exact style of ticket printout.
Within this setting item, the display shows each of the characters in turn using the following format:
CC.XXX
where:
• CC: the character number (01 to 250)
• XXX: the ASCII code for the format character
Use the left/right/up/down keys to edit the ASCII code for the character or token. Use the OK key to select the next character. Use the cancel key to exit the editor and return to the menu. Any printable ASCII codes (see Section 9.5) or token (see Section 9.4) can be used.
9.3.1 Example
To print a ticket which looks like:
JOE’S
FRUIT & VEG ID:000005 10/10/2012 10:25:30
25.5 kg N
use the following characters/tokens:
Character No. 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Code \H I D : \I \E \D \E \N \E \E End ASCII 136 073 068 058 137 133 132 133 32 32 32 32 142 133 133 00

10 USB Interface

10.1 Device Interface

The USB device interface allows the indicator to be connected to a host PC as a slave device. The indicator will appear as a virtual serial port device to the PC. This requires a Windows driver to be installed which is supplied with the C500 viewer software. Windows versions 7, 8.1 and 10 are supported.
Once the drivers have been installed on the host PC, the serial port can be accessed in the same manner as a traditional PC serial port. This port is referred to as SER.SLV within the indicator.

10.2 Host Interface

The USB host interface allows slave devices to be connected to the indicator.
Warning!
Due to hardware limitations it is only possible to reliably connect one USB slave device to the USB host port.
Supported devices include:
• Keyboard: Connecting a keyboard will permit operation of the indicator via the keyboard. Keys are
mapped as shown in the table below. The CTRL key in combination with F1-F6 will emulate a long press.
USB Keyboard C500 Front Keys F1 Zero F2 Tare F3 Gross/Net F4 F1 F5 F2 F6 F3
• USB Mass Storage Device: Connecting a USB mass storage device will permit reading and writing files
to the mass storage device. Firmware can be updated from an update file stored on a USB disk. Settings, DSD and changelog contents can be written to a USB disk. These settings are accessed via the FILE menu in safe and full setup menu (see Section 5.12). When a USB disk is connected, “USB.DSK ADDED” will appear on the display after a 5 second delay. If a USB disk is connected while the menus are active, this message will not be displayed until exiting the menus.
Note
Only FAT32 files systems are supported.
Warning!
It is recommended that an attached USB disk is ejected before removal to ensure all files have been written to the disk. See FILE:EJECT in the setup menus (Section 5.12).
• USB Printing: A text based USB printer can be connected to the indicator for printing. An example of
a text based USB printer is the Custom Q1 printer (http://www.custom.it).
• USB Serial Ports: A USB serial port may be connected to provide the serial communication functions
listed in SERIAL:SER.HST:TYPE (see Section 5.5). Supported chipsets include FTDI FT232R, Prolific PL2303 and Silicon Labs CP210x.
52 C500-600-1.3.0
Warning!
Power off the indicator before disconnecting a USB serial port from the USB host port.
53 C500-600-1.3.0

11 Change Log

11.1 Introduction

The indicator contains a change log that records trade significant events. These include changes to trade relevant settings, creation and clearing of the change log and trade relevant firmware upgrades. Only trade relevant settings are stored in the change log.
The change log records the following information about each change:
• The calibration counter at the time of the change
• The date and time of the change
• The system database name
• setting name that has changed
• The menu name of the setting that has changed
• The index of the setting that has changed. This is only used for array settings, such as resolution, where
there is a resolution for each range
• Previous value of the setting
• New value of the setting
• The log mask

11.2 Format and Capacity

The change log is stored as a comma separated value (CSV) file. CSV files can be easily viewed in most spreadsheet programs.
The change log has a maximum size of 512 kilobytes. Records vary in length, but are generally in the order of 80bytes, giving approximately a 6500 record maximum of the change log. Once the change log is full, the indicator will refuse to save any setting changes until the change log has been cleared. This can be performed from the change log setup menu.

11.3 Changelog Security

The change log is stored on the internal indicator filesystem which is not accessible, and hence cannot be tampered with. The indicator application is the only means by which to access the change log. The indicator contains Alibi software which allows the change log to be viewed. The Alibi change log viewer is part of the trade approval.
When a USB disk is attached to the indicator, a copy of the change log can be made to the USB disk. This copy of the change log can always be verified against internal change log, via the Alibi change log viewer.
54 C500-600-1.3.0

12 Digital Storage Device (DSD)

12.1 Introduction

The indicator contains a Digital Storage Device (DSD) to record traceable readings. The DSD records the following information about each entry:
• The print ID
• The weight reading
• The tare weight
• The date and time

12.2 Format and Capacity

The DSD is stored in a binary format internally. The DSD has a maximum size of 512 kilobytes, and can contain approximately 11900 records. The indicator can be configured to either prompt the user to purge 10% of records from the DSD, or automatically purge 10% of records, once the DSD is full. Records can also be manually purged from the DSD from the DSD:PURGE setup menu.

12.3 Changelog Security

The DSD is stored on the internal indicator filesystem which is not accessible, and hence cannot be tampered with. The indicator application is the only means by which to access the DSD. The indicator contains Alibi software which allows the DSD records to be viewed. The Alibi DSD viewer is part of the trade approval.
When a USB disk is attached to the indicator, the DSD can be exported to the USB disk in a comma separated value (CSV) file. CSV files can be easily viewed in most spreadsheet programs. This copy of the DSD can always be verified against internal DSD, via the Alibi DSD viewer.
12.4 Configuring the DSD
The DSD is not enabled by default. To prepare the DSD for use:
• Enter the full setup menus
• Set DSD:ENABLE to On
• Initialise the DSD with DSD:INIT
• Configure DSD purging with A.PURGE
• After this all traceable printouts will be recorded in the DSD
Note
Performing DSD:INIT will delete all existing DSD records.

12.5 Writing Records

A record will be stored in the DSD whenever a traceable weight is generated. A traceable weight is only generated for a single, double or ticket printout. For more information on print setup see Section 5.5 and Section 9. The DSD will also be written when a print occurs in alibi mode.
55 C500-600-1.3.0
12.6 Reading Records
The records can be viewed in Alibi mode or exported to a USB disk in comma separated value (CSV) format from the File menu (see Section 10). CSV files can be easily viewed in most spreadsheet programs. For more information on viewing DSD records in Alibi mode see Section 13. DSD records exported in CSV format are formatted as follows:
Print ID, Reading, Units, Status, Tare Weight, Units, Status, Valid, Timestamp 3, 223.5, kg, G, 223.5, kg, T, Yes, 2012-06-13 05:43:47

14 Ethernet Interface

14.1 Overview

The Ethernet interface provides connectivity via a standard 802.3 network. The indicator contains a 100MBit Ethernet interface. This interface allows connectivity to other networked devices, such as PCs. The indicator IP network settings can be configured from the menus under ETH.NET. See Section 5.6. Fixed or DHCP assigned addresses can be used. When DHCP is used, the IP settings are read-only so the device’s IP address can be determined.
In addition, the operator menu provides the IP.INFO menu to quickly view the device’s IP settings. See Section 6.
14.1.1 Web Interface
The indicator provides a simple web interface that can be accessed from a web browser on a PC. The web interface allows new firmware to be uploaded to the indicator.
14.1.2 TCP Socket Interfaces
The indicator provides two TCP socket interfaces for extracting data from the indicator.
1. Referred to as TCP.IN.1 within the indicator, this interface provides a bi-directional TCP socket connec­tion over which the standard indicator serial command set can be used. The indicator viewer (C500-510) uses this interface when using a TCP connection.
2. Referred to as TCP.IN.2 within the indicator, this interface provides a uni-directional TCP socket con­nection over which the indicator can transmit Automatic Output data.
A maximum of 20 concurrent connections shared between TCP.IN.1 and TCP.IN.2 are permitted.
Note
If the connection limit is being reached, it may be because connections are not being closed by clients, and left hanging. Setting a timeout value may solve this issue. See T.OUT in Section 5.5.
14.1.3 UDP Socket Interfaces
The indicator provides four UDP socket interfaces for extracting data from the indicator.
1. Two outgoing UDP sockets (UDP.O.1 and UDP.O.2):
(a) These sockets will read commands from and send data to a fixed IP and UDP port combination
specified by SERIAL:UDP.O.x:DST.IP and SERIAL:UDP.O.x:DST.PRT.
(b) The port type (auto output, network, etc) can be configured independently for each port.
(c) Setting the type to off, or setting the destination IP address to 0.0.0.0 or destination port to 0
disables the socket.
(d) The indicator source port will be the same as the destination port (SERIAL:UDP.O.x:DST.PRT).
2. Two incoming UDP sockets (UDP.IN.1 and UDP.IN.2):
(a) These sockets listen for data on a specified UDP port (SERIAL:UDP.IN.x:PORT) with in the indicator.
60 C500-600-1.3.0
(b) They read commands from any source IP and port and send reply data to the last source IP and
port that sent data.
(c) The port type (auto output, network, etc) can be configured independently for each port.
(d) Setting the type to off, or setting the source port to 0 disables the socket.
Warning!
Note that UDP is an un-reliable protocol. This means that there is no guarantee of packet delivery or packet arrival order. Your client will need to deal with this. Alternatively, use a TCP connection.
Warning!
The C500 UDP ports allow the use of broadcast destination IP addresses. These should be used with care, as too much broadcast traffic will degrade network per­formance.
14.1.4 Modbus TCP Interface
The indicator provides Modbus TCP. See Section 19.

15 Accessory Modules

15.1 Introduction

The indicator can be expanded by the installation of optional accessory modules. A range of modules are available:
• M5401 Analogue output module
• M5301 8 I/O module
• M5101 AC power module
• M5201 RS232 full duplex / RS232 transmit only serial communications module
• M5203 RS485 full duplex / RS485 transmit only serial communications module
Two modules can be installed on the indicator.

15.2 Installation

Isolate the indicator from the power before installing any module. Each module is installed onto the back panel of the indicator as shown below.

15.3 Mapping

Serial modules are mapped according to their physical location on the rear of the indicator. The module in slot 1 maps to S1A / S1B. The module in slot 2 maps to S2A / S2B.
15.4 Configuration
Modules are configured using the indicator setup menus. See Sections 5.5, 5.6, 5.9 and 5.10

15.5 Details

See the datasheet for your module.
62 C500-600-1.3.0

16 Setpoints

16.1 Introduction

The C500 series has 8 setpoints.
The status of the setpoints is shown on the display (see Section 3.2). An optional output driver module can be fitted to allow the setpoints to drive external devices. The lamps then show the status of the output drivers.
Each of the setpoints provides a comparator function that can be modified in the digital setup for switching direction, hysteresis, logic, etc. These settings are all that are required to configure normal level or limit operation. Free-flight (free-fall) functions can be enabled to configure the C500 series for weight-batching applications.

16.2 Connection

Refer to the module datasheet for physical connection details.

16.3 General Settings

Settings in the general (GEN) submenu apply to all setpoints.
• JOG.ON: If the timing has been set to PULSE this sets the on duration of each pulse.
• JOG.OFF: If the timing has been set to PULSE this sets the off time between each pulse.
• JOG.SET: If the timing has been set to PULSE this sets the number of pulses to be output each time
the setpoint is triggered before waiting for no motion.
• MAX.SET: If the timing has been set to PULSE this sets the maximum number of jog sets to be output
each time the setpoint is triggered. A setting of 0 means no limit.
• FEEDER: Controls the behaviour of multiple weigh-in and weigh-out setpoints.
– SINGLE allows only one weigh-in or weigh-out setpoint to be active at a time. Preference is given
to lower numbered setpoints in single mode.
– MULT. allows multiple weigh-in and weigh-out setpoints to be active at the same time.
• DLY.CHK: If enabled this starts a delay after a weigh-in or weight-out setpoint has been triggered.
During the delay the weight value will not be checked for weigh-in and weigh-out setpoints.

16.4 Common Settings

There are a number of settings that are common to all setpoint types. These are as follows:
• LOGIC: This setting determines whether the output is normally on or normally off.
– Logic HIGH means the output follows the activity of the setpoint and is on when the setpoint
conditions are met.
– Logic LOW reverses the operation of the output.

Figure 1: Comparison of output timing on Over setpoint
For example: Consider a Center-of-Zero status setpoint. This type of setpoint is active when the Centre-of-Zero annunciator is lit. With logic HIGH an output would turn on whenever the Centre­of-Zero annunciator was lit. With logic LOW the output would turn off when the Centre-of-Zero annunciator is lit and remain on otherwise.
Note that the outputs revert to the off state when the instrument SETUP menus are active.
• ALARM: Select what alarm response is triggered when the setpoint is active.
– SINGLE sounds a single beep every two seconds.
– DOUBLE sounds a double beep every two seconds.
– CONT beeps continually.
– FLASH flashes the display.
Note that the Alarm conditions are not influenced by the LOGIC setting, i.e. they follow the activity of the setpoint regardless of the physical state of the output.

• TIMING: Select the output timing of the setpoint. The following examples are explained in the context

Under
of an OVER setpoint however the timing options are available for all setpoint types. See figure 1 on page 64 for further clarification. Options are:
– LEVEL: the setpoint is active whenever the weight has gone over the target, has not dropped below
the hysteresis value and the reset input is not currently active.
– EDGE: The setpoint becomes active when the weight goes over the target. The setpoint becomes
inactive when the weight goes below the hysteresis value or the reset input becomes active.
– LATCH: The setpoint becomes active when the weight goes over the target. The setpoint becomes
inactive when the reset input becomes active.
– PULSE: Once the weight goes over the target the output will become active and the setpoint will
begin the jog on time. Once that time has elapsed the output will become inactive for the jog off time. If the jog set number (JOG.SET) has been set for more than one then the cycle will repeat for the set number of times. The reset input becoming active is the only reason the set number of cycles will not be completed, the weight is completely ignored once the cycle has started until the end of the set when it will wait for no motion to see if another set is required. This process will stop when the maximum number of sets (MAX.SET) is reached, the target is reached or the reset input is triggered.
• RESET: Select which reset input is used as to disable the setpoint. Options are:
– NONE
– SP.RST.A
– SP.RST.B

16.5 Over, Under, Weigh in and Weigh Out Setpoints

Figure 2: Comparison of Under and Weigh out setpoints
In addition to the common settings the following settings control the operation of the OVER, UNDER, W.IN and W.OUT setpoints
65 C500-600-1.3.0
• TARGET: Set the target weight for the setpoint.
• Hysteresis (HYS): This setting determines the change in weight required for an active setpoint to become
inactive again. A value of zero still leaves 0.5 graduations of hysteresis.
• FLIGHT: Set the amount of material that is in-flight. This is used to turn the output off before the
target it reached so it does not overshoot.
• LOCK: Set if the target and flight values will be locked from editing in the OPER menu.
• SOURCE: Select the weight source for the setpoint to use. Options are:
– GROSS uses gross weight only
– NET uses net weight only

16.6 Status Based Setpoint Types

The following setpoint types are all based on the status of the instrument.
• NONE: Setpoint is always inactive.
• ON: Setpoint is always active. This type of setpoint is useful to show that the instrument is running.
• Centre of Zero (COZ): Setpoint is active when the gross weight is within COZ bounds.
• ZERO: Setpoint is active when the gross weight is within the Zero Band setting.
• NET: Setpoint is active when the NET annunciator is lit.
• MOTION: Setpoint is active when the MOTION annunciator is lit.
• ERROR: Setpoint is active when the instrument detects any error condition signified by the display of
Exxxxx on the display.
• BUZZER: Setpoint is active when the buzzer beeps.
16.7 Example 1 (filling a bag)
Type = Over, Logic = High, Source = Gross, Target = 2000kg, Inflight = 50 kg, Hysteresis = 5 kg. Initial weight = 0 kg.
Trip point = target - inflight = 2000 - 50 = 1950 kg.
The output will switch ON at a weight over 1950 kg and switch OFF again at a weight under 1945 kg.
If the type is changed to weigh in the output will be ON at 0 kg, switch OFF at a weight over 1950 kg and switch ON again at a weight under 1945 kg.

16.8 Example 2 (loss in weight system)

Type = Under, Logic = High, Source = Net, Target = -100kg, Inflight = 5 kg, Hysteresis = 1 kg. Initial weight = 0 kg.
Trip point = target + inflight = -100 + 5 = -95 kg.
The output will switch ON at a weight under -95 kg and switch OFF again at a weight over -94 kg.

17 Remote Input Functions

17.1 Introduction

The F1, F2 and F3 keys on the front of the C520 can be set to a variety of functions depending on the application. There are also 8 external key inputs (connected to the optional IO modules).

17.2 Functions

Function F key Remote Description
- No function 0 X Zero key (see Section 17.3)
t X Tare key (see Section 17.3)
G X Gross/net key (see Section 17.3)
P X X Print key (see Section 17.3)
b X Blank the display Section 17.4. When active this input causes the front
display to be blanked to “——” and blocks the operation of the front keys. This function is intended for use with tilt sensors on mobile weighing platforms to block operation of the weight indicator if the scale is not level. This function may also be used to block operation of the instrument pending authorization or payment etc.
L X Lock the indicator (see Section 17.5)
S X X Show total (see Section 17.6)
C X X Clear total (see Section 17.6)
u X X Undo last print (see Section 17.6)
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 X X Single transmission from serial port (see Section 17.7). 1 = Module 1
Port A, 2 = Module 1 Port B, 3 = Module 2 Port A, 4 = Module 2 Port B, 5 USB slave, 6 USB host.
H X X Hold/unhold the current weight. The units will flash while the weight is
held.
E X X Show/hide the peak weight reading. The units will flash while the peak
weight is shown. A long press will clear the current peak weight. This is available in industrial mode only.
F X X Acquire and show livestock weight. Display shows “——”until the live-
stock weight is held. The units will flash while the weight is held. A long press will cancel livestock operation and show the current weight on the scale.
8 X Use this IO as part of thumbwheel input to select text line to print when
custom print format contains token 152 (see Section 17.8).
n X X Switch units. Cycle through available units. A X Use this input to reset any setpoints using setpoint reset A. B X Use this input to reset any setpoints using setpoint reset B.

17.3 Remote Access

The function of 4 fixed function keys may be implemented with the remote keys. The Front Panel keys are designated “0TGP” to match Zero, Tare, Gross/Net and Print.
67 C500-600-1.3.0
17.4 Blanking
When this input is active, the front display is blanked to “——”, and the operation of the front keys is blocked. This function is intended for use with tilt sensors on mobile weighing platforms to block operation of the weight indicator if the scale is not level. This function may also be used to block operation of the instrument pending authorization or payment etc.

17.5 Locking

When this input is active, all keys including the remote keys, are blocked. This may be used with a keylock switch to lock the instrument when not in use.

17.6 Totalising

Totalising keys are only available if SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP=TOTAL or SERIAL:PRN.OPT:PRNT.TP=A.TOTAL.
Add-to-total is performed by the print function before printing. There are 3 additional other functions are available remotely:
• Show Total: The total weight is displayed.
• Clear Total: Prints the total weight and clears it.
• Undo last print: Subtract the last item added to totals, and prints “Last Entry Cancelled”

17.7 Single Serial Transmission

Single transmit functions (1 .. 6) will transmit the weight once to the following serial ports:
• 1: Module 1 Port A
• 2: Module 1 Port B
• 3: Module 2 Port A
• 4: Module 2 Port B
• 5: USB slave
• 6: USB host
SERIAL:SERx:TYPE must be set to SINGLE. See Section 5.5 for details.
The format of the message is set up in the SERIAL:AUT.OPT menu.
The single serial transmission functions are a convenient way to implement simple PLC communications and logging without the complexity of setting up two way communications on the serial ports.

17.8 Thumbwheel IO selection of printer text line

This allows a thumbwheel connected to several IO to select one of nine text strings to be printed via the print token 152 (see Section 9.4). The text to be printed can be set using the TXT command (see Section 21.3.51).
All IOs configured for thumbwheel are combined together to select the string from lowest IO giving the least significant bit to highest IO giving the most significant bit.
68 C500-600-1.3.0
17.9 Unit switch
This function will switch between the available units.

17.10 Setpoint reset inputs

This allows a setpoint to be disabled by an input.
69 C500-600-1.3.0

18 Network Communications

18.1 Introduction

The RS-232, RS-485, Ethernet and the optical communications can be used for networking.
Warning: The calibration counter is incremented when the calibration related settings are changed. This means that calibration via a serial port cannot be carried out without affecting the certification of a trade installation.

18.2 Network rinCMD

18.2.1 Basic Message Format
The basic message format is as follows:
ADDR CMD REG :DATA ←-
ADDR is a two character hexadecimal field corresponding with the following:
ADDR Field Name Description
80
H
Response 0 for messages sent from the master (POLL).
1 for messages received from an instrument (RESPONSE).
40
H
Error Set to indicate that the data in this message is an error code and not a
normal response.
20
H
Reply Required Set by the master to indicate that a reply to this message is required by any
slave that it is addressed to. If not set, the slave should silently perform the command.
00H..1FHIndicator Address Valid instrument addresses are 01Hto 1FH(1..31).
00His the broadcast address. All slaves must process broadcast commands. When replying to broadcasts, slaves reply with their own address in this field.
CMD is a two character hexadecimal field:

REG is a four character hexadecimal field that defines the address of the Register specified in the
message. See Section 18.4: rinCMD Registers for a list of registers used by the instrument. The viewer software will show the register address for each setting in the menu structure when they are accessed.
:DATA carries the information for the message. Some messages require no DATA (eg Read Commands)
so the field is optional. When a DATA field is used a : (COLON) character is used to separate the header (ADDR CMD REG) and DATA information.
←- is the message termination (CR LF or ;).
71 C500-600-1.3.0
Note
The hexadecimal codes are combined in the fields described above when multiple options are active at the same time. For example an error response message from instrument address 5 would have an ADDR code of C5H(80H+ 40H+ 05H).
18.2.2 Termination
Message termination is possible in two ways. For normal communications that do not involve checksums use either a CR LF (ASCII 13, ASCII 10) as a terminator or a semicolon (; ASCII). There is no start-of-message delimiter.
To use a checksum the message is framed as:
SOH <Message> CRC EOT
where:
• SOH (1 byte): 01
H
• CRC is a 4 character hexadecimal field comprising the 16 bit CRC checksum. The CRC uses the
16 bit CCITT polynomial calculation and includes only the contents of the “Message” section of the transmission.
• EOT (1 byte): 04
H
18.2.3 Error Handling
If a command cannot be processed and a reply was requested, the ERROR bit in the ADDR field is set and the DATA field is set to an error message. This 2-byte error message is formed by adding a major and minor error code. For example, the error 0204Hcorresponds to a major error of 0200H, and a minor error of 04H).

19 Modbus

The C500 supports a fully featured Modbus implementation which exposes most legacy serial communication commands (see Section 21.2) as Modbus registers.
The following Modbus protocols are supported:
• Modbus ASCII: Available on the USB host serial port. This requires a user supplied USB serial cable
(see Section 10.2). MB.ASCI must be selected in SERIAL:SER.HST:TYPE (see Section 5.5). In addition baud rate and bit settings may need to be configured.
• Modbus RTU: Available on the USB host serial port. This requires a user supplied USB serial cable (see
Section 10.2). MB.RTU must be selected in SERIAL:SER.HST:TYPE (see Section 5.5). In addition baud rate and bit settings may need to be configured.
• Modbus TCP: Available on the Ethernet port. The TCP port listening for connections can be configured
via SERIAL:MOD.OPT:PORT (see Section 5.5).
For legacy 5000 replacement installations using Modbus, please refer to the legacy modbus documentation (see Section 22).
The details of underlying communications protocol are generally looked after by the PLC directly. Please refer to the offical Modbus documentation available from http://modbus.org/specs.php for more information on the protocol.
Registers listed below refer to the Modbus Data Model (MDM), which offsets each register by one in relation to the Protocol Data Unit (PDU). Most PLCs will use MDM to specify registers, whilst PDU is used for the underlying data transfer. For an explanation of these terms, please refer to the Modbus protocol documentation available via the URL above.
Warning!
Be sure to correctly configure the indicator address in SERIAL:NET.OPT:ADDRES. The indicator will not reply to messages that do not match its address.

19.1 Register Sizes

When accessing parameters that span more than a single Modbus register (16bits), the read or write MUST consist of sufficient Modbus registers to accomodate the data. If the read or write does not contain enough registers, the indicator will return a Modbus error.
• When reading an SINT32 or UINT32, the read or write must consist of two 16bit Modbus registers. For
example, when reading the displayed weight (register 6201), two Modbus registers must be read (6201 and 6202).
• When reading a STR(size), the read or write must consist of ((size + 1) / 2) Modbus registers. For
example, when reading the unit ID (register 6101), ((15 + 1) / 2) = 8 Modbus registers must be read (6101 to 6109). The first 15 bytes will be the register data, and the last byte will be zero. When writing a string register, unused bytes should be set to zero. In the register table, strings are given a length in bytes in the following way: STR(bytes).
It is possible to read more than one sequential registers in a single read or write.

19.2 Modbus Holding Registers

The following Modbus functions are implemented for holding registers:
• Read holding registers (function code 0x03)
• Write single register (function code 0x06)
92 C500-600-1.3.0
• Write multiple registers (function code 0x10)
The following table lists the translation for each Modbus holding register into the corresponding serial com­munication command:
