CONNECTING SEVERAL CELLS IN PARALLEL: Connect several cells in parallel by using - if necessary - a watertight junction box with terminal box. The cell connection extension cables must be shielded, led individually into their piping or conduit and laid as far as possible from the power cables (in case of 4-wire connections, use cables with 4x1 mm minimum cross-section).
LOAD CELL INPUT TEST (QUICK ACCESS) From the weight display, press ▲ for 3 seconds; the response signal of the load cells is displayed, expressed in mV with four decimals. LOAD CELL TESTING Load cell resistance measurement (use a digital multimeter): - Disconnect the load cells from the instrument and check that there is no moisture in the cell junction box caused by condensation or water infiltration.
Two serial ports (RS485 and RS232) for connection to: PC/PLC up to 32 instruments (max 99 with line repeaters) by ASCII Laumas or ModBus R.T.U. protocol, remote display, printer. Optional: integrated Profibus DP, DeviceNet, CANopen, Profinet IO, Ethernet/IP, Ethernet TCP/IP, Modbus/TCP output.

- : the contact will not switch on the basis of weight, but is controlled by remote protocol commands. - : relay switching occurs when the weight is stable. - If the operation mode is selected, the following options are also active: - : the contact will switch on the basis of gross weight.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC TARE (NET/GROSS) THE SEMI-AUTOMATIC TARE OPERATION IS LOST UPON INSTRUMENT POWER- OFF. To perform a net operation (SEMI-AUTOMATIC TARE), close the NET/GROSS input or press the TARE f key for less than 3 seconds. The instrument displays the net weight (just set to zero) and the NET LED lights up.
To delete a preset tare and return to gross weight display, hold down TARE for about 3 seconds or keep the NET/GROSS input (if any) closed for the same length of time (3 seconds). The preset tare value is set to zero. The NET LED is turned off when the gross weight is displayed once again. WTAB It is possible to manually set up to 9 different preset tare values to be subtracted from the display value provided that the ...
