- Page 3 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete INTRODUCTION This tool is designed to support the technician in the installation or maintenance works of an e-batch system. The communication between this program and a PLC unit is based on Ethernet utilizing the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP and UDP telegrams) so the members should be on the same network and share same network parameters (e.g.
- Page 4 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete First, locate the executable file WT520 configuration tool in the Start menu. It is located in the Dedoussis Engineering Program Group tree. - 4 -...
- Page 5 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete CHAPTER 1 – Connecting with the PLC In a multi network workstation where more than one network interfaces are existing it is important to chose the network adapter that has the right path/connection to our PLC.
- Page 6 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete Now that the right network adapter has been chosen we can see the available PLC that reside on our network. We select the one that we want and press the Connect button. - 6 -...
- Page 7 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete CHAPTER 2 – Scales Installation Now we have more data about the unit shown on the basic tab of Configuration tool and a second tab is created allowing the detailed browsing of the connected Unit’s parameters.
- Page 8 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete and the program asks which of the 5 available scales is going to be connected. After a short period of searching and configuring the new scale the program shows the possitive result with a green light on the corresponding place.
- Page 9 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete We have to press save and the system will reboot with the new configuration. Connecting again will show us the new hardware status and a real time value from the new scale. - 9 -...
- Page 10 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete On the scale display, we can see the type of the digitizer, the TAC number and there are two buttons one for a temporary Zero for the scale (until the next power down), and the calibrate button.
- Page 11 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete 2.4.1 – Calibration by weight This option gives us the freedom of using a calibration weight (>30% F.S.D.) to calibrate our scale. The program in two steps asks for empty scale, and then loaded scale and calculates the gain of the system.
- Page 12 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete 2.4.2 – Calibration by mV/V This type of calibration is mostly used because of the size of weights needed for batching plants and also because of the stable and accurate manufacturing and detailed certificates of modern load cells.
- Page 13 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete considered at the time of sizing the load cells and the scale full capacity. After pressing the ‘CALIBRATE’ button the program asks for empty scale, and then finalizes the system. It is important that the ‘no motion range’ and the stabilization time take care of possible vibration on the scale to avoid a ‘not stable’...
- Page 14 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete As we see after pressing the ‘CLOSE’ button, our scale shows 0.0 weight and the TAC number is incremented since the calibration data have changed. - 14 -...
- Page 15 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete 2.4.3 – The Traceable Access Code (TAC ) The system has provide a guard against improper access of the calibration commands. The LDU xx.1 digitizer features the Traceable Access Code. or TAC method of controlling the access to the calibration commands group.
- Page 16 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete countries will comply with either the relevant EN’s (Euro Norms) or the relevant OIML (Organisation Internationale de Metrologie Legale) recommendations. The LDU xx.x has been approved as a component for use in weighing systems according to OIML recommendation R76, the highest performance level approved being Class III, 3000 division.

We have the ability to customize the function of the e-batch client, by adding... - Page 18 Dedoussis Engineering LTD e-Batch Concrete At first we have to select the factory, and then we have to select the scale we want to change the zero offset. After a short time of communication with the PLC, the current scale weight appears in the third and fourth section of the dialogue.
- Page 19 • From the factory setup, we change the percentage of allowed zero weight. • Make a recalibration in order to create a new absolute zero with WT520 configuration tool. DEDOUSSIS ENGINEERING LTD. 20 Neratzoulas Str. Acharnai 13671, Athens GREECE tel.
