NTEP CUSTOM SETUP
The “Custom Setup” parameter, P60205 of the information parameters, displays a list of parameters which,
if configured improperly, could facilitate fraud in a legal-for-trade installation. A weights and measures
inspector might check this parameter and inquire about the configuration of any parameters that appear in
this list.
Accessing the Custom Setup List
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ACCESS THE CUSTOM SETUP LIST DURING CRITICAL WEIGHT
PROCESSING! It is important to note that all functions of the operating mode will be suspended
immediately upon accessing the information parameters. This includes suspension of weight conversions,
deactivation of all setpoints and cancellation of custom transmits. The “Custom Setup” list may be accessed
from the weigh mode as shown in the example – Accessing the NTEP Custom Setup List. An access code is
not required to view this list.
To access the custom setup list:
1. From the weigh mode, key in EJBJD >.
2. The Custom Setup list begins scrolling through each parameter to check. If there are no
parameters to check,
Std. Setup is displayed.
3. The Custom Setup list may be repeated by pressing
at P60205.
4. Press
< to return to the weigh mode.
Custom Setup Parameters
A setup parameter that appears in the “Custom Setup” does not imply that it is improperly configured.
Consider the application and refer to the following descriptions to determine if the parameter is configured
appropriately.
P205 – Receive Mode
If the receive mode is enabled for any of the four communication ports, any device connected to that port
should not be used to transmit data to the scale which could facilitate fraud.
P205 will appear in the “Custom Setup” list for each receive port enabled. For example, if the receive
mode is enabled for all four ports, the list will display
P205—, P205˜, P205™, and P205š.
P240 – Minimum Transmit Width
A weight value that cannot be displayed due to the 6-digit limitation of the standard VF display may not be
printed. To ensure this is not possible, P240 must be set to a width of not greater than 7 (6 digits and a
decimal point). NTEP must also be enabled at P440. Any weight value that exceeds the minimum width
specified will be printed as dashes "-------".
P440 – NTEP Enable
P440 appears in the “Custom Setup” list if disabled.
P9990 – Macro Instance Selection
P9990 appears in the “Custom Setup” list if at least one macro is configured. Macro operation should be
checked to verify its conformance to all regulations.
Additional Conformance Considerations
Several parameters must be considered on an individual basis as their configuration may vary with different
applications. These parameters include, but are not limited to those listed in Table 3.
