What is Remote Reset?
Remote Reset allows you to remotely trigger a reset of the Totalization on your Digital
Electronics. This feature is similar to pressing the RESET Button from the TOP.RUN page. The
Remote Reset can be utilized by installing a remote push button on/off switch (customer
supplied). To properly wire the push button on/off switch for Remote Reset Capabilities,
please see the Wiring Customer Connections section of Chapter 1.
When to Perform Zero
Zeroing should be performed after initial installation and after any mechanical procedures or
replacement of parts, such as Loadcells or Measurement Pans. Once properly calibrated, the
meter may be zeroed periodically if deemed necessary. Recommendations of whether to zero
the meter or not and how often to zero the meter are application specific. Typically, zeroing is
recommended in the case that zero drift contributes sufficient error to prevent the desired
accuracy. Zero drift may occur due to product buildup on the pan, temperature changes, and
other factors. Generally, this is not a problem since the user may zero the meter in order to
remove the offset before the reintroduction of product flow through the meter.
Enabling the Remote Reset Capability
Once the switch is wired properly, you
must enable the Remote Reset. To
enable the Remote Reset Capability,
access the I/O Menu from the TOP.MENU
page and click on the REMOTE RESET
Button. You should now see the page
shown to the right. To enable Remote
Reset, simply press the ENABLE BUTTON.
If enabled, the word "Yes" will be
displayed to the right of the button.
Selecting Remote Reset, Zero or Both
Pressing the TYPE Button will allow you to
choose the function of pressing your Re‐
mote Push Button. It will either function
as a Remote Reset, to Zero the meter, or can function as both simultaneously.
Logic
The logic of the Remote Reset Capability can also be manipulated. If the LOGIC Button is
pressed, a dialog box will prompt you to chose from two options, "NC" or "NO". The option
"NC" is Normally Closed, while "NO" is Normally Open.
