3.2.2
Primary and Secondary Units
Switches DSW2-1 through DSW2-4 set the primary
and secondary annunciators for the remote display.
Using these switches, the lb and kg annunciators can
be assigned to designate pounds, kilograms, tons, or
metric tons (megagrams). Decals included with the
remote display can be used to change annunciator
labeling to show tons (T), metric tons (t), or
megagrams (Mg).
Actual function of the lb and kg annunciators depends
on the units information included in the indicator
serial stream.

type and model. DSW2-7 must be off for all F-Series
remote displays.
3.2.4
Learn Mode (AutoLink)
The F-Series remote displays incorporate a software
feature called AutoLink . The AutoLink learn mode
function examines the serial data stream sent from the
attached indicator and attempts to determine the data
structure and format used by the indicator.
NOTE:
If learn mode is enabled, switches DSW1-4
through DSW1-8 and all DSW4 switch settings are
ignored.
Use the following procedure to learn the indicator
serial data stream:
