140 Indicator Operation Manual

Thank you for purchasing the 140 indicator. Please read all operating instructions carefully before use and keep the following points in mind: * Avoid lengthy exposure to extreme heat or cold, your scale works best when operated at normal room temperature. Always allow the scale to acclimate to a normal room temperature before use * Allow sufficient warm up time. Turn the scale on and wait for a few minutes if possible, to give the internal components a chance to stabilize before weighing. * These electronic scales are precision instruments. Do not operate near an in-use cell phone, radio, computer or other electronic device. These devices emit RF and can cause unstable scale readings. If your scale ever performs poorly, try moving the scale to a different room or location. * Avoid using in condition of heavy vibration and airflow. * Read the weight reading in short time after loading. The output signature of load cell and A/D may be little influenced after weighing for a long time.

to 0, 1, 2…9; and be flashed.

TARE to confirm and go to next step, or press ON/OFF/ZERO to exit the

calibration mode.

3. The 140 indicator will display “CAP.--”, that means the following data is the

full capacity according to your setting of display resolution (P7), display

division value (P8) , location of decimal point-dot in calibration unit (P9) and

capacity’s unit in calibration (P10). If the setting of FS is more than 199999

(regardless of decimal point and weight unit), the FS capacity will be shown

by first four digits and last four digits: “Hxxx” and “Lxxx”.

For example, the display resolution is selected to 100000(P7=31), the display

division is selected to 5(P8=2), the position of decimal point is selected to

one point after zero (P9=1). The calibration unit is chosen as lb (P10=1), so

the full capacity 50000.0lb will be shown as H 50 and L000.0 in lb unit. Also,

in other modes, the data will be shown as “Hxxx” and “Lxxx” when current

display data is larger than 199999 kg/lb (not include decimal point).

Press TARE to go to next step directly; press ON/OFF/ZERO to exit the

calibration mode; or after a few seconds, it will automatically to next step.

4. The scale will automatically display the setting of division. Firstly it will

display “d.--”, and then the data according to your setting of P8, P9 and P10.

You may choose division among these as below:

Ta bl e1 :

0.0001kg/lb 0.0002kg/lb 0.0005kg/lb

0.001kg/lb 0.002kg/lb 0.005 kg/lb

0.01kg/lb 0.02 kg/lb 0.05 kg/lb

0.1kg/lb 0.2 kg/lb 0.5 kg/lb

1kg/lb 2 kg/lb 5 kg/lb

10kg/lb 20 kg/lb 50 kg/lb

Press TARE to go to next step directly; press ON/OFF/ZERO to exit the

calibration mode; or after a few seconds, it will automatically to next step.

5. When ‘CAL.P0’ is displayed, that means the scale will begin to calibrate

scale’s zero-point. Move away any weight on the scale. Press TARE button to confirm, or press ON/OFF/ZERO to exit this mode.

6. When ‘CAL.P1’ is displayed, the scale will be calibrated on second

calibration point. The default standard weight is 50%FS, and at the same, you

Page 7

can press ON/OFF/ZERO to exit the calibration mode. Or load 5%-100%FS weight, and use PRINT/HOLD and UNIT keys to input the loaded weight.

If the input data is larger than 199999, it will show as “Hxxx” and “Lxxx”. If

the triangular symbol on the left bottom of LCD window appears, it means

that the digit being changed is the displayed most significant bit which can

only be 0/blank or 1. Press TARE key to confirm your setting and the

indicator will flash the input standard weight. Wait till the scale comes steady,

and input A/D data as per the standard weight.

The indicator will automatically go to next step, if the second point can be

calibrated correctly. If there’s an error occurred, the scale will display “CAL.

Er” and return back to step 5 for re-calibration.

7. When ‘CAL.P2’ is displayed, the scale will be calibrated on third calibration

point. When xxxxxx kg (or lb) is displayed (100% FS is default), you can

press ON/OFF/ZERO to exit the calibration mode or Place a standard

weight (must be in the range of 10%-100% FS, and equal or larger than that

for the second calibration point; this is also the range of your input number)

on the scale. Use PRINT/HOLD and UNIT key to input the standard weight’s value. Use TARE key to confirm the standard weight and input

number are correct. If the calibration weight for third point is same with that

for second point and the calibration weight is more than 10%FS, input the

standard calibration weight same as second point calibration and press TARE

key to confirm the setting. The indicator will flash the input weight. If the

indicator get reasonable data (the input weight is correct, and the calibration

weight of third calibration is more than equal to the calibration weight of

second calibration), it will go to next step automatically. If there’s an error

occurred, the scale will display “CAL.Er” and return back to step 5 for

re-calibration.

8. When ‘CAL.P0’ is shown again, that means the scale will calibrate scale’s

zero-point again. Now, you can press ON/OFF/ZERO to exit the calibration mode; or Move away any weight on the scale, press TARE key to confirm;

the displayed data will blink. If the indicator gets reasonable data, it will

calculate and store all parameters in EEPROM. And then it will auto-reset

and display all segments of LCD, full capacity… like power on again. If

there’s an error occurred in calibration, the scale will display “CAL.Er” and

try to repeat from step 5. The scale will return to normal weighing mode.

Attention: To ensure the accuracy of the scale, it is recommended to use over

75% full capacity weight to calibrate.

Ⅳ. DISPLAY ADC CODE OR INPUT WORKING VOLTAGE VALUE

1. In normal weighing mode, press and hold down ON/OFF/ZERO and

HOLD/PRINT key more than 3s, until ‘codE’ is shown, this means you have

been in display inner code mode; but first, the indicator will show the firmware

version “xx.xx.xx”. In this mode, you can examine the inner working voltage,

the stability of weighing system, the variety value of A/D data as per the loaded

weight.

NOTE:

1) The increment of A/D code for FS weight must be larger or equal to 2 times

of selected display division-n; otherwise, the calibration cannot be properly

completed. Eg. The display division is 0.1kg. Load 100kg standard weight

on the platform, the increment of A/D code is at least 2x 100kg/0.1kg=

2x1000=2000. In this case, the scale can be calibrated. Otherwise, smaller

division needs to be chosen.

2) The data should be stable; otherwise, the calibration cannot properly

complete.

2. In this mode, you can calculate the proper ADC data at zero point by examining

the A/D data for loaded weight. If the ADC increase for full capacity is NFS,

the power-on zero range is set to Zp% FS (P12 setting) and zero key range is

set to Zk% FS (P13 setting). Then proper ADC data of zero point is larger than

(Zp%+ Zk%) x NFS.

ADC increase for full capacity (NFS) can be making out by: Load the weight

W on the platform, and the ADC increase for W weight is Nw. The ADC

increase for full capacity WFS is (NFS)= (Nw)x (WFS)/W .

Negative value may be displayed because of error connect of loadcell or error

position of the zero-point potentiometer on PCB; however, the software only

deals with positive value. So, if the position of zero-point potentiometer is

error, adjust potentiometer’s position to make the ADC data will be positive

value and larger than (Zp%+ Zk%) x NFS. Normally the indicator is

factory-calibrated, and end users do not need this operation.

Page 8

Below is the drawing of position of the zero-point potentiometer on PCB for

conference, decrease ADC data by rotating clockwise, and increase ADC data

by rotating counter-clockwise.

3. Press UNIT key to select displaying weight inner code or input the inner

working voltage value. When the “U x.xx” is displayed, the display digit is

voltage value, and the unit is V. The proper working power voltage is between

5V and 8V.

4. Press TARE key to display filtered or un-filtered weight A/D data; when  is

on, the data is filtered.

5. Press ON/OFF/ZERO key to exit this mode and return to normal weighing

mode.

Ⅴ. WORKING PARAMETER SETUP:

1. When scale is in normal weighing mode, press and hold down ON/OFF/ZERO

and UNIT key until “SEtUP” is shown, that means the scale is in SETUP

mode.

2. This indictor has 19 kinds of parameters to be selected and setup by this

function.

3. During SETUP mode, press UNIT key to change the flashed digits, and

HOLD/PRINT key to shift the flashed position. Press TARE key to confirm

and save the set data and enter next setting. Press ON/OFF/ZERO key to exit

this mode.

5.14) P14.x: select which zero point will be used when powered on and weight signal is within the power-on zero-point range:

x = 0 : Choose current weight as current power-on zero point.

x = 1 : Choose calibration zero point as power-on zero point

x = 2 : Choose power-off zero-point as power-on zero point, and power-off

tare weight as current tare weight.

5.15) P15.x: select which zero point will be used when powered on and weight

signal is NOT within the power-on zero-point range:

x = 0 : Choose current weight as current power-on zero point.

x = 1 : Choose calibration zero point as power-on zero point

x = 3 : Choose power-off zero-point as power-on zero point, and power-off

tare weight as current tare weight.

5.16) P16.x: Zero tracking range x = 0 : 0d, means no tracking

x = 1 : +0.25d

x = 2 : +0.5d

x = 3 : +1d

x = 4 : +1.5d

x = 5 : +2d

x = 6 : +3d

x = 7 : +4d

x = 8 : +5d

Choose the zero tracking range as per the stability of weighing system,

accuracy and weight excursion. The normal setting is +0.5d ~ +1.5d.

5.17) P17.x: Data filter intensity x = 0 very weak

x = 1 : weak

x = 2 : middle

x = 3 : strong

The larger the chosen digit is, data filter intensity is stronger, and the speed

of data updating is lower. The normal setting is 2.

5.18) P18.x: Range of weight stability checking x = 0 : +0.5d

x = 1…9 : +1d --- +9d

If the variety of weight reading is within the setting range continuously for

several times, the scale is recognized as stable. The normal setting is +1d ~

+3d.

5.19) P19.x: Overload range that can be displayed (when weight is lager than range, “ˉˉˉˉˉ”will be shown):

x = 0 : FS+0d

x = 1 : FS+9d

x = 2 : 101%FS

x = 3 : 102%FS

x = 4 : 105%FS

x = 5 : 110%FS

x = 6 : 120%FS

x = 7 : 150%FS

x = 8 : 200%FS

x = 9 : No limitation

5.20) P20.x: Backlight on-off mode can be displayed x = 0 : Backlight is always off

x = 1 : Backlight is always on

x = 2 : Backlight is auto on and auto off. It is auto off after 10s when scale

goes to stable and has no key operation, and it is auto on when scale is

unstable or there’s some key operation.

Ⅵ. The detail about RS232:

1. RS-232 connects between scale and Host:

Scale -----------------------Cable---------------------------Host

(DB9 female)--------(DB9 male)----(DB9 female)--------(DB9 male)

TXD 2 --------------- 2 ------------------------ 2 --------------2 RXD

RXD 3 --------------- 3 ------------------------ 3 --------------3 TXD

GND 5 --------------- 5 ------------------------ 5 --------------5 GND

DSR 4 --------------- 4 ------------------------- 4 --------------4 DTR

DTR 6 --------------- 6 ------------------------- 6 --------------6 DSR

CTS 7 --------------- 7 -------------------------- 7 --------------7 RTS

RTS 8 --------------- 8 -------------------------- 8 --------------8 CTS

NC 1 -------------- 1 -------------------------- 1 --------------1

NC 9 -------------- 9 -------------------------- 9 --------------9

Note: The indicator DB9 female’s pin4 and pin6 is shorted, pin7 and pin8 is shorted!

2.When P4 is set to 7: the protocol of RS232 is compatible to with NCI-SP1, here is the details:

2.1) The baud rate and data format is fixed as per P5 and P6 setting. Responses to

serial commands will be immediate, or within one weight measure cycle of

the scale. One second should be more than adequate for use as a time-out

value by remote (controlling) device.

2.2) The length of the weight field will be 7 digit weight data, one for minus sign,

one for decimal point, two for measure unit (e.g. “lb”, “kg”). If the unit is

lb:oz, another two for “lb” and one for a space (<sp>) after lb. Units of

measure abbreviations are always lower case.

a) If the weight is overcapacity, the scale will return nine ‘^’ characters (the field

of minus sign, decimal point, weight data is filled by ‘^’).

If the weight is under capacity, it will return nine ‘_’ characters (the field of

minus sign, decimal point, and weight data is filled by ‘_’).

If the zero point is error, it will return nine ‘_’ characters.

b) The character will be ‘-’ for negative weight or a space character for positive

weight. Minus sign follows after the first digit.

c) Useless leading zero before digits is suppressed.

2.3) Key to symbols used

<LF> Line Feed character (hex 0AH)

<CR> Carriage Return character (hex 0DH)

<ETX> End of Text character (hex 03)

<SP> Space (hex 20H)

H1H2H3 Three status bytes

<p> Polarity character including minus sign for negative weight and a pace

character for positive weight

W1-W7 weight data

<dp> decimal point

U1U2: measure units, kg, lb, or oz

2.4) Commands and response
