Introduction

The SG100 weighing controller is a high performance, programmable digital
weighing system delivering precise measurement and control from a load cell
input. It is pre-configured with the calibration options required for silo and tank
weighing applications.
The 6-digit alphanumeric LED display provides easy to follow setup prompts
for all load cell parameters using intuitive scrolling text menus, including:
• Manual Trim for Zero Offset and Span.
• Manual mV/V Setup.
• Zero Span Calibration.
• Decimal Point Position.
• Last Digit rounding.
The resident Tiger 320 operating system also provides a range of built-in
measurement and control functions providing a reliable and precise industrial
quality weighing solution. These include:
• Status Inputs. Manual zero, tare
and reset tare from external status
inputs.
• Relays. Two 9A Form C standard,
Optional Four 4A Form A.
• Setpoints. Four programmable set-
points with advanced multiple timer
modes, hysteresis, deviation, PID,
and setpoint tracking.
• Analog Output. Fully scalable from
4 to 20 mA (or reverse) as stan-
dard, or optional 0 to 10 V DC and
Dual 4-20mA/0-1V DC.
• Totalizers. Dual totalizers with inde-
pendent reset and scaling.
• Linearization. Up to four 32-point
flexible linearization tables or a sin-
gle 125-point flexible table.
