Operating Design

The scales in the Factory Series consist of a weighing cell and a display and control unit. In addition to the choice of power supply (via AC adapter or external rechargeable battery pack), your scale also has an interface port for connecting a printer, computer or universal remote control switch.

The display and control unit and the weighing cell can be set up separately. Operation of Factory balances follows a uniform “philosophy” which is described in this manual.

Unless otherwise specified, the information also refers to scale versions verified or verifiable for use in legal metrology (identified by the suffix: 0CE).

Keys

The functions used most often are assigned to their own specific keys. There are additional keys for assignment of other (multiple) functions, in some cases dependent on the current operating status (so-called “soft keys”).

Each key is described in detail in the chapter entitled “Overview.”

Normal Operation

In the operating mode, these four keys function as c, [ISOTEST]/ [TEST], w/[TOGGLE] and v/ [FUNCTION] keys.

Standard keypad version:

U.S. and Canadian keypad version:

Setup Mode

In the setup mode, these keys take on the function of arrow keys (x y Y X).

Soft Key Mode

The ‘soft key’ functions depend on the current operating status; the current function is indicated in the text line of the display. In this example, the soft keys are used to access Info, Menu and Input functions.

Display

The display is divided into six sections:

– Line for metrological data:

Metrological specifications of the weighing platform.

Max ...g d=...g

Display during use as a legal measuring instrument:

Max ...g Min ...g e=...g d=...g

– Bar graph: Display in percent of

the weight on the scale relative to the maximum capacity and for over/under checkweighing

– Measured value line:

Display of weight readout or alphanumeric input

Important Note Concerning Verified Scales Approved for Use as Legal Measuring Instruments in the EU*:

For verified scales that have a verification scale interval “e” which is greater than the scale interval “d,” the last digit on the display is bordered.

– Weight unit display:

Weight unit, other unit of measure, operating information

The values identified by “G” are not allowed to be used in legal metrological applications.

– Symbol display:

Indicates operating status; application selected

– Text line: Prompts for operator

guidance, soft key designations

– Universal remote control switch

Printer

You can configure the print functions to meet your individual requirements by selecting the corresponding menu code.

You can have printouts generated automatically, or by pressing p/[PRINT]; dependent on or independent of the stability or time parameters; with or without IDs; and as standard or ISO/GMPcompliant printouts.

ISO: International Organization for Standardization

GMP: Good Manufacturing Practice

See the section on “Data Output Functions” in the chapter entitled “Operating the Scale” for a detailed description of data output options.

Interface Port

Instead of a printer, you may choose to connect a different peripheral device, e.g. a computer (PC). With an on-line PC you can control both the weighing cell and the display unit of the Factory scale.

Request messages are sent via the interface to initiate functions in the weighing cell and in the display unit. Some of the functions generate response messages.

See the section on “Data Output Functions” in the chapter entitled “Operating the Scale” for a detailed description of the interface port.

Error Codes

If you press a key that has no function, or which is blocked at a certain point in an application program, this error is indicated as follows:

– a double-beep is sounded as an

acoustic signal, and

– where necessary, a message is

displayed for 2 seconds in the text line, after which the text line returns to the previous display.

The response to an operator error is identical in all models of the Factory series. See the chapter entitled “Error Codes” for a detailed description.

Storing Settings

Storing Parameter Settings

The settings configured are stored in the scale’s non-volatile memory. The most recent parameter settings are active when you switch on the scale.

Saving Parameter Settings

You can assign passwords in order to block access to the “Menu” and “Input” functions.

Getting Started

Storage and Shipping Conditions

Allowable storage temperature: +0 °C …+40 °C

The packaging has been designed to ensure that the scale will not be damaged even if it is dropped from a weight of 80 centimeters (approx.

2.5 ft.). Do not expose the scale to extreme temperatures, blocks, shock, vibration or moisture.

Unpacking the Equipment

● After unpacking the equipment,

check it immediately for any visible damage as a result of rough handling during shipment

k Important Note:

The display and control and the weighing platform are attached to each other by a connecting cable

k If the equipment is damaged,

see “Care and Maintenance” in the section entitled “Safety Inspection”

It is a good idea to save the box and all parts of the packaging until you have successfully installed the equipment. Only the original packaging provides the best protection for shipment. Before packing your equipment, unplug all connected cables to prevent damage. The cardboard strips between the display and control unit and the weighing platform are part of the protective packaging for shipment!

Installation Instructions

Sartorius Factory Series Scales are designed to provide reliable weighing results under normal operating conditions. When choosing a location to set up your scale, observe the following so that you will be able to work with added speed and accuracy:

– Set up the scale on a stable,

even surface

– Avoid placing the scale in close

proximity to a heater or otherwise exposing the scale to heat or direct sunlight

– Protect the scale from direct

exposure to drafts that come from open windows or doors

– Avoid exposing the scale to

extreme vibration during weighing

– Protect the scale from aggressive

chemical vapors

– Do not expose the scale to

extreme moisture

Conditioning the Scale

Moisture in the air can condense on the surfaces of a cold scale whenever it is moved to a substantially warmer place. If you transfer the scale to a warmer area, make sure to condition it for about 2 hours at room temperature, leaving it unplugged from AC power. Afterwards, if you keep the scale connected to AC power, the continuous positive difference in temperature between the inside of the scale and the outside will practically rule out the effects of moisture condensation.

Seal on Scales Verified for Use in Legal Metrology in the EU*:

EU legislation requires that a control seal be affixed to the verified scale. The control seal consists of a sticker with the “Sartorius” logo. This seal will be irreparably damaged if you attempt to remove it. If the seal is broken, the validity of the verification will become void, and you must have your scale re-verified.

External Calibration for Scales Verified for Legal Metrology in the EU*

– External calibration is blocked

when the scale is used in legal metrology

> External calibration is possible

only after you have removed the verification control seal, in which case the validity of the verification becomes void and the scale must be re-verified

– External calibration can now

be performed

Factory Settings

Calibration/adjustment mode: Internal calibration/adjustment (1 9 4)

Calibration/adjustment sequence: Calibration; adjustment, if necessary (isoCAL function): (1 10 2)

Automatic initiation of calibration/ adjustment (isoCAL function): Off (1 15 1)

ISO/GMP printout: off (8 10 1)

Available Features

Your scale can be calibrated externally (menu item 1 9 1 or1 9 3) or internally (1 9 4).

External calibration can be performed

– with the pre-set weight value

(1 9 1), or

– with a user-defined weight value

(1 9 3)

Adjustment can be performed – automatically following calibration

(1 10 1); or

– if desired, the adjustment

operation can be started manually after calibration (1 10 2)

You can also configure whether the calibration mode – will be activated according

to the specific setting (by setting 1 9 1, 1 9 3 or 1 9 4), or

– can be selected by the user after

pressing the [ISOTEST]/[TEST] key (1 9 12).

You can have the scale automatically display an adjustment prompt after a certain time interval has elapsed since the last calibration/adjustment or when the ambient temperature changes by a defined amount.

You can also configure the scale to perform calibration and adjustment automatically (isoCAL) when the pre-set time and/or temperature limit is reached (1 15 3 and 1 15 5).

You can have the calibration/ adjustment results documented in an ISO/GMP-compliant printout.

> For the maximum values required

to start calibration/adjustment when you use a preload or a conveyor system, refer to the section “Overview – Specifications”.

Calibration/Adjustment “isoTEST”

Purpose

Calibration is the determination of the difference between the weight readout and the true weight (mass) of a sample. Calibration does not entail making any changes within the scale.

Adjustment is the correction of this difference between the measured value displayed and the true weight (mass) of the sample, or the reduction the difference to an allowable level within the maximum permissible error limits.

Using Verified Scales as Legal Measuring Instruments in the EU*:

Before using your scale as a legal measuring instrument, you must perform “internal calibration” at the place of installation after the warmup period.

The “isoCAL” display automatically begins flashing if the ambient temperature has changed in relation to the temperature at the time of the last calibration/adjustment, or after a defined time interval has elapsed. The scale is telling you that it wants to self-calibrate and adjust.

This adjustment prompt is activated when:

– The change in temperature

is greater than 10°C

– The scale status does not

correspond to Setup configurations

– No number or letter input is active

– The load on the load plate has

not been

changed within the last

2 minutes

Animal Weighing V

Purpose

Use this program to determine the weights of unstable samples (e.g., live animals) or to determine weights under unstable ambient conditions. In this program, the scale calculates the weight as the average of a defined number of individual weighing operations. These weighing operations are also known as “subweighing operations.”

Available Features

– Animal weighing started manually

or automatically

– Optional scale configuration

in the Setup menu for automatically initializing this application when you turn on the scale

– Minimum load threshold for

starting animal weighing: – 100 display increments for

automatic start

– 50 display increments for

manual start

– Start range: Automatic start of

animal weighing operation when three successive subweights lie within a user-defined tolerance range (calm = 2%, normal = 5%, active = 10%)

– Number of weighing

operations for calculation of an average mdef can be set before the beginning of each animal weighing operation

– Arithmetic average displayed as

a result in the pre-set weight unit (identified by the G symbol)

– Optional multiplication

of the arithmetic average by a user-defined factor mul. A circle “o” is displayed as weight unit and mul=xxxx is shown in the text line

– Toggling between weighed and

calculated results by pressing w/[TOGGLE]

– Automatic output via the

interface port: – Number of weighing

Over/Under Checkweighing O

Purpose

This program is used to check whether a sample corresponds to a pre-set target value or is within a specific tolerance range. In addition to the display in the measured value line, the results are shown on the bar graph and can also be routed through the interface port via control lines for further electronic processing.

Available Features

– Lower tolerance limit (minimum),

target value and upper limit (maximum) stored in long-term memory

– Optional scale configuration

in the Setup menu for automatically initializing this application and loading the values stored in long-term memory for the target value and the upper and lower tolerance limits when you turn on the scale

– Enter target value and limits

by placing a load on the scale or using the numeric keys

– Control in entering target and

tolerance values, so that the upper limit ≥ the target ≥ the lower limit ≥1 display increment

– Accuracy of a weight readout

or keyboard input as target/ tolerance value stored corresponds to the display accuracy

– Optional scale configuration

in the Setup menu for automatic output to the interface port (print application parameters) of target value and tolerance limits when initialization is completed

– Control range for the scale’s

data output port lines is 30% to 170% of the target value

– Control range can be set

anywhere from 10% to infinity. Control lines set when stability is reached within the control range; deleted only when you exit this application

– Optional configuration in

the Setup menu for activation of control lines independent of weight value (weight within control range, stability reached)

– Toggling the display between

weight readout and control (checkweighing) display by pressing v/[FUNCTION]. If the weight value exceeds tolerances, the measured value line shows the weight while the control display shows “LL” for “too low” or “HH” for “too high.”

– Toggle the text line display

between weight value and control display, nominal value “SetP” and tolerance values “min” and “max” by pressing the w/[TOGGLE] key.

– Weight displayed on bar graph in

relation to upper and lower limits and target value.

– Optional automatic printout of

weight when it is within the control range at stability (auto print +/-).

After an automatic printout, the scale is blocked. Before you can generate the next printout, you must unblock the scale by unloading it (weight must be under 30% of the target) or by placing a load on the scale (bringing the weight up to at least 170% of the target).

– Press c to delete the

initialization parameters and end the over/under checkweighing program

Factory Settings

Control lines +/– on (activating data output port lines): Within control range (4 3 1)

Operating the Scale

Preparation

The checkweighing program requires a target value for comparison to the current value. This target has a tolerance range, which is defined by absolute weight values: upper and lower limits. These limits can be entered either by storing weights on the scale or via key input.

There are four control lines, called data output port lines, which are activated as follows: (see also the diagram at the right):

– lighter

– equal

– heavier

– set

The control range spans 30% to 170% of the target value. You can configure this parameter in the Setup menu (4 3 +/- ctrl ports on) to select whether the control lines are:

– always on

– activated within the control range

– activated at stability

– activated at stability within the

control range

This makes it possible, for example, to connect a simple indicator for the weighing results (e.g., three different colors, one each for the weighing results: too light, O.K., too heavy).

Recalculation

Purpose

With this application program you can compensate for over-poured components in formulation.

If a component is over-poured when weighing in the individual formulation components, the mixture already poured cannot be used in its current composition. To avoid having to discard the materials weighed, you can adjust the proportions of the formulation to compensate for the over-pour.

When you use this application, the recalculation procedure is mainly performed by the scale.

Available Features

– Individual components (up to 99)

weighed in with a readout showing from “0” to the desired component weight

– Transaction counter shows the

next component expected

– Weighed components are stored,

followed by automatic printout and taring

– Additive weighing of components

with printout

– Toggle the display between

component weight and total formulation weight (additive mode) after first component is stored

– Stored component weight

displayed as true net weight for 2 seconds

– Enter a divisor before or during

component weighing. For example, if the formulation has a total weight of 100 g, enter the divisor 10 to weigh in a total formulation of 1,000 g.

– If a component is over-poured,

you can use the recalculation function to change the amount of this component indicated in the formulation by using the plus or minus keys or numeric input. A factor is then calculated by which all component amounts are then adjusted.

– Recalculation factor displayed

in the text line, with a warning symbol if the factor is not equal to 1.

– All components displayed with

number and amount (by weight) to be added in follow-on filling. Components displayed in sequence by the scale.

– Display of actual net weight

during follow-on filling

– After the amounts of the

components already weighed have been corrected, weighing continues according to the adjusted formulation amount. The readout is recalculated (updated) according to the divisor.

– You can repeat the over-pour

correction procedure as often as necessary, if other components are over-poured.

– After follow-on (corrective) filling,

the total amount differs from that given for the formulation, but the proportion of components in relation to each other is the same.

– You can have the weight printed

out after each measurement

– Choose whether the current

component weight or the tare value is printed after each measurement

– Individual component weights are

printed as “Compxx.”

– Press c to exit the application

program. The component memory is cleared and the sum of components printed as “S-Comp.”

ISO/GMP-compliant Printout/Record

You can have the parameters pertaining to the ambient weighing conditions printed before (GMP header) and after (GMP footer) the values of a weighing series. These parameters include:

– Date – Time at the beginning of

a weighing series – Scale manufacturer – Scale model – Model serial number – Software version – Lot ID (weighing series no.) – Time at the conclusion of the

weighing series – Field for operator signature

Operating the Scale with an ISO/GMP-capable Documentation Device (Printer)

You can connect a special printer from Sartorius to your scale for printing ISO/GMP-compliant records.

This printer, called “Data Printer” (order no.: YDP03-0CE), offers the following features:

– ISO/GMP function

can be switched on and off – Date/time – ID no. for identification of

workstation/operator – Documentation includes scale-

specific data

Note: The time indicated on the printout consists of only hours and minutes.

For ISO/GMP-compliant documentation with a computer, you will need special software. Contact Sartorius for a detailed description on how to create this software.

Interface Description

Purpose

Your Factory scale comes equipped with an interface port for connection to a computer or other peripheral device.

You can use an on-line computer to change, start and/or monitor the functions of the scale and the application programs. The interface port also has four data output port lines for the over/under checkweighing program.

!Warning When Using Prewired

RS-232 Connecting Cables!

RS-232 cables purchased from other manufacturers often have incorrect pin assignments for use with Sartorius scales. Be sure to check the pin assignment against the chart on the right before connecting the cable, and disconnect any lines marked “Internally Connected” (e.g., pin 6). Failure to do so may damage or even completely ruin your scale and/or peripheral device.

Operating the Scale

Data Input Format

You can connect a computer to your scale to send commands via the scale interface port to control scale functions and applications.

The commands sent are control commands and may have different formats; e.g., control commands can have up to 26 characters. Each character must be transmitted according to the settings configured in the Setup menu for data transmission.

Farmat for Control Commands Format 1: Esc ! CR LF Format 2: Esc ! # _ CR LF Format 3: Esc ! # & (max. 20 &) & _ CR LF Format 4: Esc ! _ CR LF

Synchronization

During data communication between the scale and an on-line device (computer), messages consisting of ASCII characters are transmitted via the interface. For error-free data communication, the parameters for baud rate, parity, handshake mode and character format must be the same for both units.

You can set these parameters in the Setup menu so that they match those of the on-line device. You can also define parameters in the scale to make data output dependent on various conditions. The conditions that can be configured are described under each of the application program descriptions.

If you do not plug a peripheral device into the scale interface port, this will not generate an error message.

Handshake

The scale interface (Sartorius Scale Interface = SBI) has transmit and receive buffers. You can define the handshake parameter in the Setup menu:

– Hardware handshake (CTS) – Software handshake

(XON, XOFF)

Hardware Handshake

With a 4-wire interface, 1 more character can be transmitted after CTS (Clear to Send).

Software Handshake

The software handshake is controlled via XON and XOFF. When a device is switched on, XON must be transmitted to enable any connected device to communicate.

When the software handshake is configured in the Setup menu, the hardware handshake becomes active after the software handshake.

The data transmission sequence is as follows:

Scale ––– byte –––> Computer (trans- ––– byte –––> (receiving mitting ––– byte –––> device) device) ––– byte –––>

<––– XOFF –––

––– byte –––> ––– byte –––>

…

(Pause)

…

<––– XON –––

––– byte –––> ––– byte –––> ––– byte –––> ––– byte –––>

Transmitting Device:

Once XOFF has been received, it prevents further transmission of characters. When XON in received, it re-enables the transmitting device to send data.

Receiving Device:

XOFF is transmitted after the 26th character has been stored. To prevent too many control commands from being received at one time, XON is not transmitted until the buffer has transmitted all but 14 characters.

If the device addressed does not understand the control command, the SBI receiving device activates DTR (Data Terminal Ready) after 6 more characters have been received. The busy signal is deactivated by XON (14 characters).

Activating Data Output

You can define the data output parameter so that output is activated either when a print command is received, or automatically and synchronously with the scale display, or at defined intervals (see application program descriptions and auto print settings).

Data Output by Print Command

The print command can be transmitted by pressing p/[PRINT] or by a software command (Esc P).

Automatic Data Output

In the “auto print” operating mode, data are output to the interface port without a print command. You can choose to have data output automatically at defined print intervals with or without the stability parameter. Whichever parameter you select, the data will be output as the readouts appear on the scale display. The display update frequency depends on both the model of the scale and the current operating state.

If you select the auto print setting, data will be transmitted immediately the moment you turn on the scale. In the Setup menu, you can configure whether this automatic output can be stopped and started by pressing p/[PRINT].

and remove

– Old dust cover

● Place the new dust cover on the

scale and press down on the front and back along the edges until the cover is firmly seated

● Place the shield disk on the scale

and turn it counterclockwise

● Place all remaining parts back

on the scale in the reverse order (see above)

● Remove the following parts from

the scale:

– Load plate

– Load plate shield (depending on

the type of model)

– Remove the old dust cover

● Place the new dust cover over

the scale (peel off the backing from the adhesive area)

● Place all remaining parts back

on the scale in the reverse order (see above)

! The dust cover must not touch

the load plate

Safety Inspection

If there is any indication that safe operation of the scale with the AC adapter is no longer warranted:

● Disconnect from AC power:

unplug the AC adapter from the wall outlet (mains supply)

> Lock scale in a secure place to

prevent it from further usage

Safe operation of the scale with the AC adapter is no longer ensured when

– there is visible damage to the

AC adapter

– the AC adapter no longer

functions properly

– the AC adapter has been stored

for a relatively long period under unfavorable conditions

In this case, notify your nearest Sartorius Service Center or service technician. Maintenance and repair work may only be performed by authorized Sartorius service technicians who

– have access to the required

service and maintenance manuals

– have attended the relevant

service training courses

Recycling

To ensure adequate protection for safe shipment, Sartorius products are packaged to the extent necessary using environmentally friendly materials. After successful installation of the equipment, you should return this packaging for recycling because it is a valuable source of secondary raw material.

For information on recycling options, including recycling of old weighing equipment, contact your municipal waste disposal center or local recycling depot.

Declarations of Conformity

The C Mark on Sartorius Equipment

In 1985, the Council of the European Community approved a resolution concerning a new approach to the technical harmonization and standardization of national regulations. The organization for monitoring compliance with the directives and standards concerning C marking is governed in the individual EU Member States by the implementation of the EC Directives adopted by the respective national laws. As of December 1993, the scope of validity for all EC Directives has been extended to the Member States of the European Union and the Signatories of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

Sartorius complies with the EC Directives and European Standards in order to supply its customers with weighing instruments that feature the latest advanced technology and provide many years of trouble-free service.

The C mark may be affixed only to weighing instruments and associated equipment that comply with the applicable Directive(s):

Council Directive 89/336/EEC” Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)”

Applicable European Standards:

Limitation of emissions:

EN 50081-1 Residential, commercial and light industry

EN 50081-2 Industrial environment

Defined immunity to interference:

EN 50082-1 Residential, commercial and light industry

EN 50082-2 Industrial environment

Important Note:

Weighing Instruments for Use in Legal Metrology: Council Directive 90/384/EEC “Non-automatic Weighing Instruments”
