    Scale Operation Fig. 1: Model HI8200IS Front Panel Layout Scale Annunciators Unit of measure lb, oz, kg, g or lb:oz. The units annunciator to the right of the display will indicate the current unit of measure. Net weighing mode is indicated by the NET annunciator. The annunciator will illuminate when a net weight is displayed.

  • Page 8: Power Up And Power Down

    Accept illuminates to indicate weight is at or above the Under target and at or below the Over target. Over illuminates to indicate weight is above the Over target and below the High target or flashes if above the High target. Displays when data has been transmitted Power Up and Power Down Connect the indicator to the HI8BIS or HI8AIS power supplies with supplied cabling only.

  • Page 9: Digital Tare Entry

    Digital Tare Entry Enter a weight and press TARE to save or press CLEAR to cancel tare entry. The scale will display a net weight and the NET annunciator will illuminate. When configured for 250 product memory, the Tare weight is stored with the associated Product ID number.

  • Page 10: Display Setpoint Values

    NOTE: If a Password number has been stored, the password protection will be activated upon power up. Display Setpoint Values Press SET POINT to display the current setpoint values. The last viewed or edited setpoint will be displayed. Press UNITS or PRINT to scroll through the eight available setpoints.

  • Page 11: Display Accumulator And Counter Values

    To change the preact value, enter the preact value using the numeric keypad. Press ENTER to accept the change and return to the weigh mode or press UNITS or PRINT to save and edit other preacts. Press SET POINT to exit this mode. The display will read abort to indicate no changes were made to the preact values, or the display will read Saved to indicate the preact value is saved.

  • Page 12: Checkweigh And Product Id Operation

    Checkweigh and Product ID Operation Over, Under and Accept Checkweighing Operation 1. Remove all items from the scale platter. 2. Press ZERO to zero the scale. The weight indication should now be zero. 3. Place an item on the scale platter and wait for the motion (MOT) to turn off, indicating a stable weight.

  • Page 13: Product Id Number (One Product Setting)

    Product ID number (one product setting) When the parameter Product Size Menu Prod is configured for one product, there is only one active product field that is used in memory. The Product ID Number becomes an ID value, which is no longer used to recall any stored fields in memory. Product ID number (250 product setting) When parameter Prod is set for 250, up to 250 individual Product ID numbers with their associated fields can be stored in memory.

  • Page 14: Delete Product Id (250 Product Setting)

    Delete Product ID (250 product setting) You may wish to remove Product IDs from your HI8200IS to prevent accidental use. Deleting a Product ID will make scrolling through the available Product IDs, using UNITS or PRINT, a faster process. Type in the Product ID number to be deleted. Momentarily press PROD ID to recall the Product ID number.

  • Page 15: Display Data Field Values

    The display will read abort to indicate no changes were made to the stored values or the display will read SaVed to indicate the value is saved. Display Data Field Values Press PROD ID once (or twice) until FiELd 1 is momentarily displayed to enter the Data Field recall mode.

  • Page 16: Calibration Mode

    Calibration Mode To calibrate the HI8200IS indicator, you must access the setup mode. Any of the three methods below can be utilized. NOTE: Hardy IS Instruments are not C2® enabled. Power–up Front Panel Setup Mode Access To enter the calibration mode, power up the indicator while pressing and holding the ZERO and the UNITS buttons.

  • Page 17: Select Scale Capacity

    Select Scale Capacity When the setup mode is accessed, the first parameter displayed is the capacity parameter. The capacity parameter toggles the display between CAP Aj and the current capacity. The capacity can be expressed in lb or kg. The UNITS annunciator to the right of the weight display will indicate either lb or kg.
  • Page 18 Scales calibrated at 2% of capacity may have more errors at full capacity than scales calibrated at 25% or 50%. Hardy Process Solutions recommends that all scales be calibrated at full capacity whenever possible.

    WARNING The display and keyboard area are considered to constitute an electrostatic discharge hazard. Clean only with a damp cloth. The scale should be securely mounted using the supplied mounting bracket to a table, wall or under a cabinet to prevent the scale indicator from being accidentally dropped or damaged.

  • Page 57: Installation With The Hi8Bis Battery

    Installation with the HI8BIS Battery The HI8200IS Intrinsically Safe Weight Indicating System can be installed in hazardous locations using the HI8BIS rechargeable battery. Battery operation permits the system to be used in locations where AC power is prohibited or is unavailable. When installing the system, it should be installed as a complete unit with the battery, indicator, weighing elements and options.

  • Page 58: Battery Pack Operation

    Battery Pack Operation The external intrinsically safe battery pack is located under the HI8200IS indicator. The battery pack supplies power to the indicator through a cable with a military style connector. To remove the battery pack, power down indicator then disconnect the battery power supply cable from the rear of the HI8200IS indicator by unscrewing the connector.

    Hazardous Area Fiber Optic Option A Hardy’s Fiber Optic Option includes two channels for communication. Either of the options is installed in the hazardous area inside the enclosure. Fiber Optic communication is perfect for a hazardous location as it has no electrical potential, and does not create a hazard.

  • Page 63: Hi8Fb Safe Area Fiber Optic Option

    HI8FB Safe Area Fiber Optic Option The Hardy HI8FB fiber optic to RS232 option, is a dual channel converter for use in the safe area only. The HI8FB option converts the fiber optic communication into a RS232 signal to interface with a computer or printer. A serial cable with a female DB9 connector and a Class II power supply is provided with the HI8FB option.
