  • Page 11: Getting Started

    1.7 Getting Started The MSI-8000HD is usually shipped along with a compatible sensor unit such as an MSI-7300 Dyna-Link 2, or one of MSI’s advanced Crane Scales. MSI ships these systems pre-configured. If the MSI-8000HD is purchased separately, or is to be used with a different system, then the RF Transceivers will have to be mated.

  • Page 12: Unpacking

    - WiFi Ethernet 1.9 Unpacking When unpacking the MSI-8000HD, ensure that all parts are accounted for. Check the MSI-8000HD for any visible damage and immediately report any damage to your shipper. It is advisable to use the original shipping container when shipping or transporting the MSI-8000HD.

    Switching back to Gross mode from Net mode will not clear the Tare value. This allows the operator to use the Gross Mode temporarily without having to reestablish the tare value. Only clearing or setting a new tare will change the tare value held before switching into Gross Mode. MSI-8000HD Operator’s Manual...

  • Page 17: Peak Hold

    3.5 Peak Hold Peak Hold automatically updates the display when a higher peak weight reading is established. The Peak Hold function uses a high speed mode of the A/D converter (220 samples) allowing it to capture transient loads at a far higher rate than typical Dynamometers. Peak hold is cleared and re-enabled with the Key.

    Note PN 152160) Hi-Res Mode will make the MSI-8000HD more sensitive to motion and movement resulting in a less stable display. When Hi-Res is on, the filter is automatically set to the Hi-1 setting (if Hi-2 is already set, then the filter is not changed). This will have a small effect on settling time.

  • Page 33: Service Counters

    DCE devices (503489-0002 schematic). 5.10 Service Counters All MSI’s RF Linked Scales and Dyna-Links maintain two service counters for safety. The first counter (LFCnt) counts lifts above 25% of capacity. The second counter (OLCnt) counts the number of times the RF Linked Scale has been overloaded. These counters serve to warn the user to inspect the load train after a number of overloads or a long term frequency of high capacity lifts.
  • Page 34 Figure 5-8. Access the Service Counters Only a MSI factory representative can reset the service counters, as these are an important safety warning feature. Depending on the circumstances, a thorough load train inspection is necessary to ensure product safety.
