11.6 SINGLE - MULTISCALE REPEATER (MAStr)
The system is made up of one or more indicators (up to 32, called SLAVES), connected to one or more weighing system,
which communicate with another indicator (called MASTER) which acts as weight repeater, on which it is possible to view
(or printed if the printer is provided) the weight of each single scale or the sum of the weighs detected by the single scales.
Slave can be connected to up to 4 platforms with dependent or independent channels.
Slaves also repeat some of the keys pressed on the master, such as tare or zero.
NOTE: It is possible to achieve a network with a MASTER, which remotely performs the functions of the scales
connected, and one or more LISTEN ONLY MASTER having the sole function of repeating the weight.
11.6.1 LISTEN ONLY MASTER
One can also add other masters (see next paragraph) which must be set as weigh repeater. The keys pressed on these
masters are not repeated on the slaves.
When the listen only master is turned on, it displays the weight of the slave, or automatically selects the sum of the weights
if there are more slaves connected to the master.
If there are more slaves, the listen only master can display:
- the sum of weights, if it is selected on the listen only master and also on the master the sum is displayed; the “SuM”
message is displayed every 10 seconds;
- the weight of the selected slave, if the master displays the weight of the same slave or the sum of weights; the “SCA n”
message is displayed (n is the number of the selected slave).
If it is not possible to set the communication, the listen only master displays the central segments alternated to the
messages “SCA n” or “SuM”.
NOTE: this type of master works if there is at least one master in no listen mode.
11.6.2 MASTER CONFIGURATION
In the MASTER, by selecting with ENTER/PRINT in this operating mode one is asked to enter the number of the SLAVES
which one wants to use: for an instant “nuMSL” is displayed; then, one enters the number (between 01 and 32).
-
one is asked to select the listen only mode or not.
- one is asked to select the enable print on the master or not (must be connected to a printer).
NOTE: Only one master can have the print option set to YES.
- (if listen mode = “no”) one is asked to enter the protocol type.
