9.12.6 PI Download an Image File to the EEPROM
Downloads a HEX-INTEL formatted EEPROM image file to the target DAD143.x EEPROM. The image file
contains all stored information except the calibration data.
Attention: The target DAD143.x must have same firmware type and revision no. as the source DAD143.x.
9.13 Trigger Commands SD, MT, GA, TE, TR, TL, SA
When using these commands, e.g. a checkweigher can be realized. The triggering of the measurement can be
done by measuring signal, or by command TR or via a digital input. The time diagram of a typical
checkweighing with explanations see next page.
Note: All changes to the trigger commands have to be stored in the EEPROM using the WP command.
See chapter 10.12.2.
9.13.1 SD Start Delay Time
[Index 0x2100 Sub 0x0E]
This command defines a time delay between the trigger and the start of the measurement.
Setting range: 0 ms to 65535 ms.
Default setting: SD = 0 ms; time plot of a typical checkweigher cycle see below
9.13.2 MT Measuring Time
[Index 0x2100 Sub 0x08]
This command defines the measuring time for the averaged measurement result.
Setting range: 0 ms to 3000 ms.
Note: The setting MT = 0 disables the trigger function and the averaging.
Default setting: MT = 0 [= trigger function disabled]; time plot of a typical checkweigher cycle see below
9.13.3 GA Get Triggered Average Value
[Index 0x2900 Sub 0x06]
This command reads the measurement result of a measurement cycle. The measurement value will averaged
according the defined measuring time.
Note: For preventing errors during the read out of the data the register GA has stored the value 99999 at the
beginning of the measurement cycle. The measurement result can only be read after the defined measuring
time MT has been elapsed and before a new measurement cycle has been started.
