Page 9 No Data Option 5 sets the display to do one of three things after a data stream time out. The default is to display "NoData". The other two options are "Clear" (blank the display) and "Hold" (keep the last weight sent). The time out length can be specified with Option 3. RIGHT toggles between the three choices, "NoData", "Clear", and "Hold"...
Page 10 Mirror Option 10 enables a display to be read in a rear view mirror. The default (off) is for direct viewing. Addressable Option 11 will set the display to be addressable. The display will ignore any characters until the addressable character is received, then display the data immediately following it.
Page 11 Minimum Weight Option 16 sets the minimum weight that the unit will display. LEFT will change the value of the selected digit and RIGHT will change which digit is selected. For example if you set the minimum weight† to "000030" and the indicator is sending "000000"...

Page 13 Option 28 enables the remote display to use a Siemens Milltronics BW500 Integrator and will direct the remote into a Siemens Sub Menu. Siemens Sub Menu Options may be downlaoded at www.matko.com/siemens Hardware Test Option 29 enables the remote display to test the serial ports by adding jumper wires.

Page 16 Section 7: Stoplight Axle System Programming There are three types of programs to select from to control traffic to receive axle weights and totals. • A simple Axle Scale • An Inbound Truck Scale (driving on) • An Outbound Truck Scale (driving off ) The general rule for all systems is a green light means the remote is ready to accept the next axle.
Page 17 Section 8: Wireless Transceiver Setup 1. Set the upper 5 DIP switches on the transceiver to the same baud rate as the indicator. If all switches are set to off or more than one switch is turned on then the unit will default to 9600 baud 2.

Page 20 Section 9: Trouble Shooting General Purpose Solution: Set the transmitting device to 1200 BAUD; 8 data bits; no parity. Make sure the data stream contains 6 weight characters followed by a carriage return, line feed or end of text. Set the display to factory default and re-learn the display. The red LED is on and the display reads “NoData”.
