ANALOG OUTPUT(ONLY FOR INSTRUMENTS WHERE THIS OPTION IS AVAILABLE)
- : it selects the analog output type (4÷20 mA, 0÷20 mA, 0÷10 V, 0÷5 V, ±10 V, ±5 V;
default: 4÷20 mA).
For the output ±10 V and ±5 V the soldered jumper SW1 must be closed:
▫ open the instrument;
▫ locate on the analog board, which is mounted perpendicular to the main board, the
soldered jumper SW1 highlighted in the picture below:
▫ close the jumper shorting the pads with a drop of tin.
- : choice of a weight followed by the analog output: gross () or net (). If the net
function is not active, the analog output varies according to gross weight.
- : set the weight value for which you wish to obtain the minimum analog output value.
Only set a value different from zero if you wish to limit the analog output range; for
instance: for a full scale value of 10000 kg you require an 4 mA signal at 5000 kg and
20 mA at 10000 kg, in this case, instead of zero, set 5000 kg.
- : set the weight value for which you wish to obtain the maximum analog output value; it
must correspond to the value set in the PLC program (default: calibration full scale). E.g.: if I am
using a 4÷20 mA output and in the PLC program I wish to have 20 mA = 8000 kg, I will set the
parameter to 8000.
- : analog output correction to zero: if necessary adjust the analog output, allowing the PLC
to indicate 0. The sign "-" can be set for the last digit on the left. E.g.: if I use a 4÷20 mA output
and, with the minimum analog setting, the PLC or tester read 4.1 mA, I must set the parameter to
3.9 to obtain 4.0 on the PLC or tester.
- : correction of analog output to full scale: if necessary permit modification of the analog
output by allowing PLC to indicate the value set in the parameter . E.g. if I am using a
4÷20 mA output with the analog set to full scale and the PLC or tester reads 19.9 mA, I must set
the parameter to 20.1 to get 20.0 on the PLC or tester.
