SETUP AND CALIBRATION, Cont.
b= (Break Range)
Press the
ENTER
key to show the current setting for the break range. The break range is a
number from 1 to 255 that corresponds to the number of division change to break out of the
filtering. Press the
ENTER
key to keep the displayed value or use the numeric keys to enter a new
value and press the
ENTER
key to save the new setting.
Sr= (Sample Rate)
Press the
ENTER
key to show the current setting for the sample rate. The value displayed is the
sample rate in samples per second. Press the
ENTER
key to save the displayed value or use the
numeric keys to enter a new value (1 to 50) and press the
ENTER
key to save it.
UnS= (Motion Range)
Press the
ENTER
key to view the current setting for the range of motion detection. If the displayed
value is acceptable, press the
ENTER
key to save it. Otherwise, use the numeric keys to enter the
new range (the number of divisions of change permitted before indicating unstable), then press the
ENTER
key to save the new setting. Allowable range values are: 0 through 99 divisions.
FILTER SETTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Non Critical Sample Rate
If the sample rate is not critical, as in static weighing, set dFLt= to “0” (no filtering),
dFLt= “1” (F=6, b=12, Sr= 2/Sec),
or
dFLt= “2” (F=6, b=8, Sr= 1/Sec).
Critical Sample Rate
If the sample rate is critical, as in a filling operation, use the Custom Filtering (set dFLt= to “3”).
1. Sr= SAMPLE RATE (1 to 50 samples/second) determination:
Set the sample rate as close as possible to produce a display graduation change for every
graduation of material added to the scale.
Material Flow Rate (lbs/second)
Resolution
EXAMPLE: 100lbs/sec
10lbs
2. b= BREAK RANGE (1 to 255 graduations) determination:
Turn the filtering off by setting the dFLt= setting to “0”. Operate the system as it will be
normally used and, by observation, determine the number of grads of instability that needs to
be filtered out. Set the break range (b=) to that value.
Weight Change
Graduation Value
EXAMPLE: 20,000 x 10lb capacity scale with 800lb variation in the weight display.
800
10
3. F= FILTER SETTING (1 to 99) determination: Set to desired results.
4. If stability is unacceptable with any setting of F=, reduce the sample rate and/or increase
the break range, b= setting for increased filtering.
