- Locations where temperature or humidity exceeds specifications;
- Locations subjected to drastic temperature fluctuations or icing and condensing;
- Outdoors or locations above 2,000m;
- Locations exposed to direct sunlight;
- Locations subject to dust accumulation;
- Locations with poor ventilation;
- Locations with a lot of salt and metal powder;
- Locations where the main unit is subject to direct vibration and shock.
Take adequate shielding measures when using at the following locations.
- Near a power line.
- Where a strong electric field or magnetic field is formed.
- Where static electricity, relay noise or the like is generated.
Install the F701-C as far away from devices generating high frequency, high voltage, large
current, surge, etc., as possible. Also, carry out wiring separately from their power lines. Do not carry out parallel wiring and common wiring.
Do not use it, broken down.

CAUTION 
This sign forewarns the presence of hazards that could result in personnel injury or property damage when incorrectly handled.
Caution on wiring
Caution during startup and maintenance
Caution during transportation
Caution during disposal
Tighten the screws for the signal input/output terminals at the specified torque.
If they are loose, shorts, fire or malfunctions may occur. Tightening torque: 0.5N •m
For sensors, external inputs/outputs and options, use shielded cables.
The temporary overvoltage applied to the power should not exceed 1500V.
For turning on/off the power, be sure to keep intervals of 5 seconds or more.
After power-on, make sure to warm up the F701-C for at least 30 minutes or more before use.
If the F701-C is not used by the specified method, its protective performance may be
impaired.
Maintenance
- When performing maintenance, disconnect the power.
- Do not wipe with a wet rag, or with benzine, thinner, alcohol, etc. Doing so may cause discoloration or deformation of the F701-C. In the case of heavy contamination, wipe off the contamination with a cloth after dipping it into a diluted neutral detergent and wringing it well, and then wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
When the F701-C is shipped, spacers made of corrugated cardboard are used as
cushioning materials. Though it is factory-designed so that shocks can sufficiently be absorbed, breakage may result if shocks are applied when the spacers are reused for transportation. If you send the F701-C to us for repair, etc., take adequate measures against shocks by using polyurethane
materials, etc., separately.
If you dispose of the product, handle it as industrial waste.
Remove the lithium batteries used in the F701-C and make sure to dispose them according
to classification of waste collection.

These jumpers MUST be connected.
- The load cell excitation voltage of the F701-C is 10V. Heating or breakage may occur unless the load cells maximum excitation voltage is 10V or more.
- When using the F701-C with the four-wire load cell connected, be sure to connect +EXC and +S, and -EXC and -S. Even if +S and -S are not connected, normal operation is performed apparently, but heating or breakage may occur because excessive voltage is applied to the load cell.
CAUTION

2-1-1. 6-wire Connection

The load cell input of the F701-C is a 6-wire (remote sense) connection. 6-wire shielded load cell
cable should be used and kept separate from AC or other noise generating wire.
* Remote sense lines are used to detect and correct variations in excitation voltage over long cable
runs.

2-1-2. 4-wire Connection

Connect 3 and 4, and 5 and 6 as shown below.
Even 4 and 6 on the terminal block are open, normal operation is performed apparently, but heating
or breakage may occur because excessive voltage is applied to the load cell.
For connection, use the accessory jumper lines.

The group of “n” parallel load cells
viewed from this device side can be
regarded as a unit load cell the rated
capacity of which is multiplied by “n”
and the sensitivity of which is
unchanged. The averaging resistance (R)
should be 300 to 500, equal in relative
ratio and excellent in temperature
coefficient. No averaging resistance is
needed if load cells with consideration
for parallel connection are used.

2-1-3. Connecting Load cells in Parallel

In some industrial weighing apparatus, two or more load cells may be connected in parallel to form
a hopper scale or track scale. The manner of connection is shown below.
Parallel connection can simply be made by using the optionally available B410 (summing box for
4-point multi load cell).

2-1-4. Sensor Cable

Cable colors of sensors may differ from one manufacturer to another (it may even differ from one
model to another for some products). Refer to the sensor manual (or data sheet) and check signal
names and colors in order to connect the cables correctly.

The F701-C and load cell
function as a weighing device.

4-1. Span Calibration

Calibration is performed for matching the F701-C to a load cell. For example, it is work to adjust so
that the F701-C accurately displays 100.00kg when an actual load (or weight) of 100kg is applied to
the load cell (balance section) of the weighing apparatus to which the F701-C is connected. This
operation is called Span Calibration.

Calibration procedure performed by entering the rated output value (mV/V) and rated capacity
value of load cell without using real load.
Secondary calibration function is provided for provisional calibration when the F701-C develops
trouble or the calibration value is mistakenly changed.
The secondary calibration is only a provisional method. Calibration with actual load must be done
as soon as possible.

entered in *1.
Register the rated output value (mV/V) of load cell.
If it is necessary, re-calibrate initial zero point.
Disable changing setting value related to calibration.
Turn the calibration LCOK ON to prohibit the calibration for
avoiding false operation.
43
4.CALIBRATION
- Set the Balance Weight Value to the Capacity or less.
- For performing calibration at the rated value according to the specifications of
the load cell, set the Capacity to the same value as the rated value of the load
cell.
- When connecting several load cells in parallel, it is possible to occur some
differences between input and output value due to voltage drop caused by
connection or material of lines.
In this case, register actual input value to perform accurate calibration.

Example of discharging weighing
In discharging weighing, the amount of discharge can be weighed by adding negative weighed
values. In this example system, raw materials are to be fed from the material tank to the weighing
tank, and a fixed quantity of raw materials are to be discharged from the weighing tank to a
container. At first, the discharge valves of the weighing tank are to be fully opened to discharge raw
materials, and the discharge valves are to be closed in the order of Set Point 1 Set Point 2, and
Set Point 2 Set Point 3 at the time of Final - Set Point 1, and Final - Set Point 2, respectively. The
discharge valves are to be completely closed at the time of Final - Compensation, when one
measurement is completed. When the weighing tank runs short, the feeding valves are to be opened
to replenish the weighing tank with raw materials from the material tank to weigh.

fed into the weighing tank.
(2) It is detected by the upper limit signal that the weighing tank is full, and the valves of the mate-
rial tank are closed.
(3) By setting external input Tare subtraction ON (or with the key on the panel), Net
weight is zeroed. (Tare subtraction)
(4) The discharge valves are fully opened to start discharging. When the weighed value reaches
(Final - Set Point 1), Set Point 1 output signal turns ON. (If the comparison inhibit timer is set,
the timer starts.) The discharge valve (Set Point 1) is closed.
(5) When the weighed value reaches (Final - Set Point 2), Set Point 2 output signal turns ON. (If the
comparison inhibit timer is set, the timer starts.) The discharge valve (Set Point 2) is closed.
(6) When the weighed value reaches (Final - Compensation), Set Point 3 output signal turns ON,
and if the judging timer is set, the timer starts. The discharge valves are completely closed.
(7) After the judging timer expires, Over/Under judgment is made. If the weighed value exceeds the
range of the Over/Under setting value, the over signal or under signal is output. In weighing
from the second time onward, (3) ~ (6) are repeated in a like manner.
(8) When the weighing tank runs short of raw materials, the valves of the material tank are opened

In simple comparison control, the next weighing is judged to be possible when the weight falls
short of 25% of the Final after completion of the previous weighing.

6-2-2. Sequential Control

This is a control method which compares the weight value with discharging value after starting
signal of weighing ON.
When the starting signal ON, output of each signal of Set Point 1, Set Point 2, and Final turns ON
then the signal turns OFF after weight value satisfied the each condition.
Sequential control can be conducted without connecting external sequencer in sequence control.
Sequence controls are classified into following categories.
1) Normal sequence control
Start weighing with start signal and finish the weighing by the output of complete signal.
2) Sequence control with adjust feeding
Adjust feeding is executed for the set period in adjusting time after completing the weighing.

About the stop signal
When the stop signal turns ON during weight cycle, a sequence error ( ) will result and
all the signals of Set Point 1 output, Set Point 2 output and Set Point 3 output are turned OFF.
If the start signal is turned ON when the stop signal is ON, it will become a sequence error
( ) and will not start the weighing.

(D1+ D2+ D3・・・・・・DA)
A
× C
Value added to Compensation value
The auto free fall compensation function stores compensation samples by
using the Over/Under judgment signals.
If the number of Judging Times is set to 00 (no judgment), the F701-C cannot
store such samples for auto free fall compensation, so that the compensation
function does not work.
For using the auto free fall compensation function, set the number of Judging
Times to 01 or more.
For details, please refer to "a) Judging Times" on P.96.
Request
Auto Free Fall Compensation ON/OFF / Average Count of Auto Free Fall Compensation / Auto Free Fall Compensation Coefficient
Auto free fall compensation adjusts the amount of suspended ingredient automatically to reduce
weight error. Register auto free fall compensation parameter.
Principle of auto free fall compensation
Sampling the weight value when the complete signal turns ON after Set Point 3 finished.
Record “n” times(A) the difference(D) between set Final value and actual weight value, average the
difference and multiplied by compensation coefficient, then add the result of Compensation value.
6.DISCHARGING CONTROL MODE
F701-C can regulate the value of D for minimizing the errors.
When D is within the range of (Final + AFFC.) Actual weight (Final - AFFC.), F701-C
processes auto free fall compensation.
And when compensation feeding is ON in Sequence Mode, F701-C samples the weight value
before compensation feeding.
