TECHNICAL MANUAL
PARAMETER 63 - CURRENT LOOP (GROSS OR NET MODE)
Description: Sets the current loop to operate in GROSS mode or NET mode.
GROSS: For most applications. 4 mA is output when the scale is at zero
(Centre of Zero LED illuminated).
NET: For applications with varying tare weights. The 4-20 mA board
will output only after a tare has been entered. 4 mA is out put
when the weight display shows zero, even though the true weight
on the scale is greater (NET LED illuminated).
PARAMETER VALUE CURRENT LOOP MODE
0 (default)
GROSS mode
1
NET mode
PARAMETER 64 - CURRENT LOOP (SPAN)
Description: Spans the Current Loop Output to a custom weight entry. This is
the weight at which the Current Loop will output its highest level (20
mA).
The True Scale Capacity weight is typically selected. In some
applications (such as those utilizing NET mode), a weight less than
Scale Capacity is desired.
Enter the weight on the keypad, followed by the [PRINT/SELECT]
key.
If, for example, the scale capacity is 1000 kg, but Parameter 64 is
set to 500 kg, the Current Loop will reach 20mA at 500 kg.
IF, FOR ANY REASON, THE M2000 STOPS TRANSMITTING
COMMANDS TO THE 4-20 MA BOARD, THE CURRENT LOOP
OUTPUT WILL BE SET TO ZERO.
