Initializing the Micro-Tech
Determining the Belt-Scale Code
2-2 Micro-Tech 9101/9201 Reference Manual, Rev J Thermo Fisher Scientific
It is critical that you know the correct belt-scale code of the conveyor
and scale the Micro-Tech is working with, for the following reasons.
The scale may produce inaccurate and unreliable results if you use
the wrong belt-scale code.
The Micro-Tech software uses a belt-scale code that is specific to
each particular system, and this belt-scale code must be entered
during the software initialization process.
Knowing the correct belt-scale code will minimize the amount of
time and effort needed to set up the Micro-Tech.
Non-pivoting scales have far fewer required set-up parameters than
pivoting scales. As a result, if you have a non-pivoting scale (with a
belt-scale code of 49, for example), there are only 11 required
parameters. In contrast, if you have a pivoting scale (with a belt-scale
code of 1, for example), there are 18 required parameters. So,
knowing your belt-scale code in advance will make the whole set-up
process go more smoothly.
The quickest and easiest way to determine the belt-scale code of the
scale the Micro-Tech is working with, is to look at the Micro-Tech
“System Data Sheet” or “Door Label.”
System Data Sheet
A System Data Sheet is supplied with the product documentation
that accompanied your unit. See Appendix A for an example of a
typical System Data Sheet.
Door Label
A Door Label is supplied with every Micro-Tech. For panel-
mounted versions of the Micro-Tech, the Door Label is in the
product documentation that accompanied your unit. For field-
mounted versions, the Door Label is glued inside the main door of
the enclosure. See Appendix A for an example of a typical Door
Label.
