Safety WARNING This equipment is supplied by voltage which can cause an electric shock injury. Before removing the instrument from it’s housing, switch the instrument off, isolate it from the power supply and make sure that it cannot be connected inadvertently by other persons. This instrument may only be used when housed within another enclo- sure, e.g.
The WI-105 latest technology to ensure fast and accurate weight readings. The WI-105 has a 5 1/2 digit (-199999 to 199999 counts) bright red LED display. It is designed for mV inputs from load cells, strain gauges & strain pressure transmitters. This compact panel mount instrument has an industry standard DIN 48 x 96 housing.
Installation Overall Dimensions O-ring sealing gasket supplied as standard. Panel Cutout Fastening Clips The fastening clips supplied may be fitted on the side or the top/bottom of the instrument. Ensure that the To gain access to the PCB, switch clip and screw is mounted as power off and remove terminals shown here.
Display and Controls Keypad During Configuration Mode Keypad During Normal DisplayMode The instrument may be reinitialized at any time, with factory default Cold Start / Restoring settings restored. To achieve this, switch the instrument off. Press and Factory Settings keep pressing the right two most keys while powering up the instrument. Release the keys when COLD appears on the display.
Setup and Calibration This instrument offers an easy and straightforward way to precalibrate and field calibrate the load cell system. Follow the steps below: There is only one user selectable link, the excitation link. The default Step 1: Selecting setting is for 10V excitation, which is suitable for most applications. Note Excitation Voltage that the precalibration feature only works with the 10V excitation.
Example 2 For a 3 x 1000 lb capacity load cell system with 2mV/V each. Program the instrument as follows: - Go to the Ser and Pre.C menu. - After Volt appears, set 2.00 for mV/V sensitivity. - Set decimal point to 0000 (no decimal places). - Set SF.1 to 0.
DO NOT change these parameters. It is suggested that these parameters be noted for future use, especially if the instrument is replaced. These parameters can be reentered into the new instrument, with the result that reasonable accuracies can still be obtained without redoing a field calibra- tion.
Below are the displays you will see while navigating the configuration menu shown in Figure 1. Following that is the menu itself. Your unit may Passcode = press the four not have all options installed so you will not see all the items listed below front panel keys from right to or in the menu itself.

Communications menu (RS-232/RS-485). Menu Unit address (default 0) Available baud rates Protocol selection and serial interface function. Off = Not used Out = ASCIIBus output In = ASCIIbus input.
Option menu for Tare feature and Peak/Valley Menu Hold. Tare feature select (auto-zero / auto-tare). Turn the Tare feature on or off This does not disable the remote tare. Peak / valley hold feature (min. / max. hold). Turn the peak / valley hold feature on or off. Peak / valley hold selector.
Options RS-485 Communica- tions Option RS-232 communications is standard on the WI-105. However, if RS-485 is preferred, then the following steps must be taken. - Switch power off and isolate. - Carefully remove circuit board from it’s housing (see installation sec- tion).
The upper board and terminals are clearly numbered 13-28 to differentiate them from the lower terminals. The analog output board simply connects to the WI-105 motherboard via the option connector. To fit analog output board, use the following procedure: - Switch power off and isolate.

ASCll input (WI-105 acting as a remote indicator) function is enabled in the “Conn” (connection) sub-menu by selecting “ASCI” to “In”. In this mode, the WI-105 will act as a serial input indicator and will show the incoming data / weight on the display. Note that all load cell menu functions are ignored.
