3.4.2 Cable Connection in the D-Sub Connector Mating Plug
The connections on the back panel are plug-in type. Keep the conductors as short as possible and connect
them to the terminals. The connector housings are conductive (metallized), i.e., part of the shield, and must
be fastened to the back panel by screws.
Mounting a cable:
• Open the connector housing (catches)
• Release and open the cable clamp
• Remove approx. 50-60 mm of the cable insulation
• Shorten the shield to 5 mm and bend it over the cable sheath
• Remove 3mm wire insulation and connect it by soldering
• Insert the pin unit
• Put the cable under the cable clamp
The grounding tongue presses on the shield bent backwards;
the clamp presses on the cable sheath
• Close and tighten the cable clamp
• Check the strain relief
• Insert the mounting screws on both sides
• Close the connector housing (catches)
The shields must be connected to the metal housings on both
ends of the cable.

3.4.4.2 PR 5510/04 RS-422/485
When mounting, the RS-485/422 interface must be configured by DIL switch S101 on the card.
Using RS-485 is compulsory with a multi-point connection (tristate status). The RS-485 interface can be
used also for point-to-point connection. Like 2-wire or 4-wire connections, this is dependent on the other
communicating units.
A 2-wire connection is half-duplex and cannot send and receive simultaneously. It requires corresponding
driver programming (see relevant instrument manual).

Outputs
The PR 5510/08 outputs (pins 2 - 24) use common supply voltage at the collector as reference potential
and open emitter outputs. A non-activated output has high impedance, and an active output has a voltage
by approximately 1.7 V lower than the supply voltage.
The load to be connected is applied between the output (pins 2 … 24, 25*) and GND (pin 26).
Input
When using as DATA_IN, the input (pin 25) can control the 23 outputs. As an output, data is
“continuous/hold/tristate“ and its signal can be configured (TTL/24V active (high/low). It is applied to pin
25 – DATA_IN of the 26-pin connector and is effective only with DIL switch S101-1 = OFF and S101-2 =

In all modes, data is output with each internal PLC cycle.
Mode 1 : Continuous data output (follow), no DATA_IN:
Continuous output of consistent data without request, e.g. for remote display.
- The driver modules are always enabled.
- PIN25 is output.
Mode 2: Data output on external request DATA_IN (hold):
Output of consistent data in "held" condition on request, otherwise continuous.
- As long as DATA_IN is active, the last output value remains held.
- The driver modules are always enabled.
- PIN25 DATA_IN is data-hold (level S101-3, polarity
Note:
Data might be transferred internally (data modification) in the output memory at the same time the external
request signal changes from "Data hold" to "Data valid". In this case, the reading instrument must wait 100
µs, until the data is considered valid.
Mode 3 : Parallel bus system (tristate), external request DATA_IN (hold):
Parallel connection of n PR 5510/09 cards, controlled via the DATA_IN (tristate/hold) input.
Output of the consistent data in "held" condition on request, otherwise tristate (high-impedance).

Load cells or analog platforms (e.g., from the CAPP series) can be connected.
The supply voltage is protected from short circuit and overload.
The card is fitted with a solder link (factory setting: closed; see Chapter 3.5.5), which should be opened only
when the supply voltage and thus also the sense voltage are reduced to below approx. +/- 4 VDC.

3.5.4 Connecting Load Cells with External Supply
When the load of the load cells is < 75 ohms (e.g. more than 4 load cells with 350 ohms), external load cell
supply is required. In this case, the internal supply is replaced by a potential-free external supply. The
neutral wire of the external supply voltage (0 ext. supply) must be connected to the instrument housing to
ensure that the voltage is symmetrical to 0. The internal supply is not connected.
The cable colors indicated
above are valid for connecting cable

When using other load cells/cables,
the assignment of colors may differ.
For this reason, the relevant manual

4.1 Data Protection/Power Failure
The calibration data and parameters as well as all configuration and interface data are stored in nonvolatile (EAROM) memory. Unauthorized data changing can be prevented by an access code; the front
panel keys can be disabled. Additional write protection is provided for calibration data and parameters
(CAL switch, see Chapter 4.1.1). Clock and calendar continue running in the event of a power failure.
4.1.1 CAL Switch
The CAL switch is located on the instrument back panel. Generally, we recommend setting the switch into
the closed position after calibration to prevent accidental overwriting/data loss.
The built-in alibi memory is protected against erasure, as long as the CAL switch is closed.
With legal-for-trade applications, the CAL switch must be sealed in the closed position.
With operation via front keys with
calibration data and - parameter can be viewed but not altered.

Calibration using weights, mV/V or load cell data can be done using the VNC program. During calibration,
the instrument must be set to gross weight display (reset tare, if necessary).
For a ’legal-for-trade’ application, set the mode under
calibration; see Chapter 4.5.13.1. Select [New] to go to the maximum capacity [Max] (see Chapter 4.5.3);
select the scale interval and determine the dead load. Now calibrate the maximum capacity by applying a
calibration weight, in mV/V or with load cell data.
After determining the test value, the menu can be closed as described in Chapter 4.5.12, in order to save the
new settings. Calibration data can be protected by the CAL switch (see Chapter 4.1.1), which must be sealed

Span: Calculation of the equivalent input voltage in mV/V
Span indicates the equivalent input voltage in mV/V related to the maximum capacity (Max) of the scale. It
is calculated as follows:
= [mV/V] Span
Dead load: Calculation of the equivalent input voltage in mV/V
The input voltage in mV/V equivalent to the dead load can be calculated by using the dead load rather than
the maximum capacity in the formula specified above.
Normally, calculation of the dead load (scale without load/empty hopper) is not necessary. Subsequent dead
load correction (as described in Chapter 4.5.9) can be used for later re-determination of the dead load, when
the scale/hopper is empty.
Example: Load cell(s) with rated output of 2mV/V at nominal load of 2000 kg, dead load 500 kg, load cell
supply voltage 12 VDC

Multiple range scale
With [Range mode] = [Multiple range], the scale has up to 3 ranges with different resolutions.
The switch points [Range limit 1] and [Range limit 2] are the range limits. As soon as the gross weight
exceeds range 1, the next higher range with the next higher interval becomes valid (1->2->5->10->20->50>100->200). When reducing the weight, the interval of the previous range is kept. When the gross weight is
<= 0.25 d of range 1 and the scale is stable and not tared, the scale returns to range 1 with the
corresponding interval.
Multi-interval scale
With [Range mode] = [Multi-interval], the scale has up to three ranges with different resolution. Each range
has the corresponding interval. Unlike [Multiple range], switching the interval is also triggered by weight
reduction; i.e., when the weight drops below the range limits.
During calibration, the multiple range/multi-interval function is always switched off.

4.10 Alibi Memory
The instrument is equipped with an alibi memory for approx. 80000 items. If the number is exceeded, the
eldest items are overwritten. No license is required for using the alibi memory. At each print command a
dataset with a sequence number is filed. The dataset can comprise of up to 3 items (Gross, Net and Tare).
Each item consists of :
- Sequence number 1 - 999999
- Date YYYY-MM-DD
- Time hh:mm:ss
- Scale address Always A
- Weight type B = Gross, N = Net, T = Tare, PT = Preset tare
- Weight with unit Separation of decimals is done by the decimal point
Depending on the configuration (Using front keys: oP 063) Gross- and/or Net- and/or Tare weight is filed,
see chapter 4.3.3 . Display of the datasets using VNC see chapter 4.4.3 .
The alibi memory can be completely erased, if the CAL switch is open, using front keys (AL 101).
With the Browser the datasets can be
exported as CSV file for later
evaluation as EXCEL file.
The CSV file uses the 'comma' as separator between the different elements of an item. Consequently in the
EXCEL program a conversion has to be activated to receive only one element per column.
The sequence number is preceded by an additional line number.
Take care: EXCEL can import at maximum 65536 lines, if these are exceeded, the CSV-file has to be divided
previously.
