FAA-27, Technical Manual, Rev. 1.1, June 2014
5.4 Adjustment (eCal) With PLC
All instruments are adjusted in the production to operate in its analog output range
between 0mV and 10mV load cell signal as default. For example, if the instrument is
at factory default values and programmed to operate 4 – 20mA output range, the
output will be 4mA at 0mV load cell signal and will be 20mA at 10mV load cell signal
(only for 2mV/V load cells).
Changing the FAA-27 instrument a recalibration is not required due to matching
instruments in production by Flintec.
Warning: If the instrument is adjusted before and its factory defaults are changed,
you should load factory defaults with xFace.
FAA-27 Programming via RS232C
FAA-27 can be electronically calibrated via RS232C serial interface by commands or
by xFace software. If you want to use your own software to calibrate the FAA-27 from
your PLC or PC, you may use the commands below. The yellow colored bytes are
the data in the command and blue colored bytes are check sum in this document.
Output type setting and eCal electronic calibration should be done in sequence.
RS232C PORT SETTING :
Adjust your PC or PLC serial port as 9600, 8 None 1.
DATA STRUCTURE :
ASCII, HEX DATA and CR (Carriage Return) at the end of the command.
