    This section is provided to assist you in obtaining such an environment. Electrical Power The 777 is designed to operate from 90 to 260 VAC at 50/60 Hz. No special order is required for operation at 230 VAC.
  • Page 7: Wall Mounting

    INSTALLATION, Cont. Wall Mounting The 777 can be mounted on the wall using two (2) #10 x 1 1/2" screws placed 5 1/2" apart. To prepare the 777 for wall mounting, perform the following procedure: 1. With the power cord unplugged, remove the four (4) screws securing the front cover assembly to the main housing.
  • Page 8 INSTALLATION, Cont. 7. Turn the indicator on its side and remove the rubber footpads from the bottom of the main housing. See Figure No. 4. 8. With the front cover assembly rotated and the footpads removed, what was the bottom of the indicator is now the back of the indicator.
  • Page 9: Load Cell Connection

    INSTALLATION, Cont. Load Cell Connection The load cell is connected to the 777 scale input board via a DE-9P connector. Figure No. 8 shows the pin identification for the connector. Make certain the pins are correctly identified before soldering a wire to them. Make certain that the connector retaining screws are used to hold the load cell cable connector securely to the scale input board.

    777. In Gross weight mode, the data sent will include the Time, Date and the Gross Weight only. If the 777 is in Net weight mode, the Time, Date, Gross, Tare and Net weights will be sent to the serial device. The data formats are as follows:...
  • Page 11: Keypad Functions

    In the Gross Weight mode, the total of all weight placed on the scale since the the display was zeroed is displayed. In the Net Weight mode, the gross, tare and net weight is displayed. NOTE: If a valid tare weight has not been entered, the 777 will ignore this key. TARE KEY This key is used to enter a tare weight of up to the capacity of the scale.

    If you receive the indicator attached to a scale, calibration is not necessary. If the 777 is being connected to a scale for the first time or recalibration is necessary for other reasons, proceed as indicated.
  • Page 17 This is the value in scale divisions that will be automatically zeroed off. That is, if the scale divisions are five (5) and the zero tracking is set to three (3) the 777 will automatically zero weights of 15 or less. To change the setting, use the keypad to select a new value for the zero tracking range (0, 0.5 or 1 to 9), then press the ENTER key to save...

  • Page 38: Appendix A - Scale Totalizer

    APPENDIX A - SCALE TOTALIZER The scale totalizer will sum the weights of two or more scales and make the total available to the application program. The totalizer can be referenced as if it were another scale. The totalizer's scale number will be one plus the actual number of scales attached to the indicator. NOTE! The indicator firmware must be version 02.2 or greater to support this function.
  • Page 39 APPENDIX A - SCALE TOTALIZER, Cont. MOTION (0 TO 9) CURRENT=?? The value entered, in scale divisions, will be used in determining when the totalizer's motion status will become true. The totalizer's motion status will be true if any of the totalized scales is in motion or if the total gross weight changes by more than totalizer's motion range.
  • Page 40 APPENDIX A - SCALE TOTALIZER, Cont. The SCLSTAT function will return information about the scale's status. The information is encoded in the bits of the return value and can be determined by AND'ing the return value with the appropriate mask value: SCLSTAT AND 2 = 1 = One or more of the scales included in the totalizer had some sort of failure or the total weight could not be calculated because the scales were incompatible.
