You can speed up the re-zeroing process of the Rice Lake 880 Performance Series scale by using the LAST function. This allows you to replace the original captured zero with the last pushbutton zero taken while the scale was empty. Instead of performing a full zero calibration using WZERO, select LAST to use the previously recorded zero. This eliminates the need to remove test weights, making the process faster.

To change the format, use the format EDP command followed by an equals sign (=) and the modified print format string. For example, to add the name and address of a company to the gross format, send the following EDP command: GFMT.FMT=RICE LAKE WEIGHING SYSTEMS<NL>230 W COLEMAN ST<NL>RICE LAKE WI 54868<NL2><G> GROSS<NL>...
880 Performance Series Controller/Indicator Setpoints The 880 indicator provides 20 configurable setpoints for control of both indicator and external equipment functions. Setpoints can be configured to perform actions or functions based on specified parameter conditions. Parameters associated with various setpoint kinds can, for example, be configured to perform functions (print, tare, accumulate), to change the state of a digital output to control external equipment functions, or to make conditional decisions.
880 Performance Series Controller/Indicator 8.2.1 Batching Switch The batching switch option, PN 19369, comes as a complete unit in an FRP enclosure, with legend plate, locking stop switch (mushroom button), and a run/start/abort three-way switch. Both switches are wired into the indicator’s digital I/O terminal strip as shown in Figure 8-1.

10.6.1 Stream Serial Data Format If stream data transmission is configured for the communication ports (STRLFT or STRIND), by default the 880 sends data using the Rice Lake Weighing Systems serial data format (RS-232) shown in Figure 10-1. RS-422 is also available and uses the same serial data format.
880 Performance Series Controller/Indicator 10.7 Custom Stream Formatting – Input/Output The format of the streamed data can be configured for the COM, USBCOM, Ethernet Server and Ethernet Client ports individually using the front panel, EDP commands or Revolution III using the tokens in Table 10-6.
880 Performance Series Controller/Indicator 10.9 ASCII Character Chart Use the decimal values for ASCII characters listed in Table 10-10 Table 10-11 on page 109 when specifying print format strings in the 880 PFORMT menu or serial stream formats. The actual character printed depends on the character mapping used by the output device.
880 Performance Series Controller/Indicator 10.10 Digital Filtering Digital filtering can be used to create a stable scale reading in challenging environments. The 880 has two filtering methods that can be set; sample rate and digital filter. 10.10.1 Sample Rate The Sample rate should be set first. Better stability is achieved with a lower sample rate setting, so 7.5 Hz is more stable than 960 Hz.
