Introduction This document describes the use of a 5024G LCD display terminal from Eilersen Electric, when the software version listed on the front page is installed. With this software, the terminal can perform automatic dosing (coarse/fine) using its digital outputs and inputs. One digital output is used for coarse dosing and one digital output is used for fine dosing, while a digital input is used for start of dosing and a digital input is used for registration of dosed amount.

Please notice: The “Afterflow” parameter is not used if afterflow correction is disabled by setting the “Afterflow status” parameter to OFF. Please notice: The “Afterflow” parameter can be changed automatically after each dosing if afterflow correction is performed automatically by setting the “Afterflow status” parameter to AUTO.

The weighing terminal can be connected to and communicate with different kinds of load cells from Eilersen Electric. Depending on load cells and how they are connected, the weigh- ing terminal can communicate with the load cells using the following load cell protocols: •...
Use the screens and menu system to select the COARSETARE screen. • Press to invoke the COARSETARE menu. • Press to select the PERFORM COARSETARE menu item. • Press to perform a coarse tare. Please notice: Coarse taring should only be done when the system is empty! WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
The weight is considered stable when the readings are within the limit entered here. The weight ready used for steady detection is filtered with the filter entered here. The steady de- tection filter works like the display filter. – Configure zero tracking To configure the zero tracking range, select the ZEROING screen: WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
Please notice: Corner calibration is only necessary in system with more than one load cell. Corner calibration is not possible when there are more supports than load cells and should only be used in weighing systems where system mechanics shows non ideal behavior regard- ing load in the corners.

The standard calibration factor is 524288. If this value is changed 1% (up or down), the gross weight indication will also change 1% (up or down). Calibration load The actual mass of the load used for calibration must be specified in the CALIBRATION screen before calibration is performed. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
