5.13.23. PD18 Filling Timeout
The EM100 subtracts the various delays and average times (‘PD3’ to ‘PD9’) from the timeout period
‘PD18’ and uses the ‘remaining’ fill time and fill-weight to calculate a minimum filling slope. If the
weight doesn’t stay between this minimum slope and twice the minimum slope the EM100 aborts
the filling cycle and reports a filling failure. The filling cycle will also be aborted if the timeout value
‘PD18’ expires.
Setup: Set Timeout=3000ms.
Range: 0...65535ms.
Note: If PD18=0, the timeout is disabled.
5.13.24. PD19 Underweight Post-Fill Time
If the averaged dosed value is less than the required weight this parameter controls the post fill time
in milliseconds. After post-filling the dosed weight is recalculated. If this parameter is zero no post
filling occurs.
Range: 0...65535ms.
Note: If PD19=0, the post-filling is disabled.
5.13.25. PD20 Tare Interval
In some cases where the object being filled is not a new bottle but a box that is being emptied after
each fill, the tare function is not necessary in every filling cycle. When parameter 20 is zero, taring
only takes place in the very first filling cycle. When parameter 20 is 1 (one, default) the taring takes
place in every filling cycle. Otherwise parameter 20 can be set to the number of filling cycles which
must occur before a tare measurement is taken again.
Request: Tare each Filling Cycle.
Setup: Set Tare at Each 100
th
Filling Cycle.
Example: PD20 100, means next tare after 100 filling processes.
Request: Post-Fill Time=80ms.
Setup: Set Post-Fill Time=100ms.
