3.3.1.3 Tools / General Setpoints
The LCIC-WIM board has four digital outputs. Each of them may be defined
– through the Tools / General Setpoints – either as a manual output, or as a
general setpoint output:
• A manual output is controlled by a user's command sent from the PC
(or another computer). That is, the user sends – either by his own
application or by a general RS232 terminal (see section D.3) –
commands to turn an output on or off. The user – and not the card – has
the initiative to turn an output on or off.
• A general setpoint output is controlled by the card according to user
pre-defined criterion. Say, initially the user defined the setpoint as 10
kg, then the card automatically turns the output off/on when the
current weight is less/more than 10 kg. The user cannot explicitly turn
an output on or off by a command.
Note – these general setpoints are absolutely different from the setpoints in the
Fill mode (section E.4). The general setpoints are inactive in the Fill mode.
In order to configure an output:
• Select output's Mode as Manual or Setpoint.
• In case you selected 'Mode: Setpoint', specify the setpoint value (e.g.,
10).
• Click 'Save to Board' to validate your new configuration.
• You may turn each manual output on or off.
