The standard calibration factor is 524288. If this value is changed 1% (up or down), the gross weight indication will also change 1% (up or down). Calibration load The actual mass of the load used for calibration must be specified in the CALIBRATION screen before calibration is performed. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...

Ip addresses, subnet masks etc. are normally set from a PC with the EEConnect software. Please refer to the EEConnect documentation for further details. If the terminal is unreachable e.g. due to network topology, the Ethernet settings can be en- tered in the SETUP ETHERNET screen: WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
Once the TCP protocol has been enabled, it can be selected when data are to be transmitted. This can also be done in the ETHERNET PROTOCOLS screen shown above. It is possible to select None, Registration, Display or Poll. NOTE: In this application either None, Display or Poll should be selected. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...

The different texts and questions will vary from parameter to parameter. If a suggested values is rejected, the user will for certain parameters be asked to enter/select an alternate value. This is repeated until the sequence has been through all parameters and is done. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
This chapter describes the use of the External Module option on the 5024G weighing termi- nal, which with a on RS485 externally connected communications module (2070 PROFINET) from Eilersen Electric can communicate with external controller/PLC using PROFINET. With the later stated software version installed in the external module the external commu- nication module can transfer 14 input bytes from the 5024G terminal to the PROFINET mas- ter, and transfer 14 output bytes from PROFINET master to the 5024G terminal.
Number of bytes to be received in the 5024G from the external module and transmitted from the Profibus-DP/PROFINET/DeviceNet/Ethernet master. This is the number of output bytes in the Profibus-DP/PROFINET/DeviceNet/Ethernet master. The value must be the same as the value in the external module. Normally this is 14. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
Selects entry of the selected input data byte for test purposes. If an external module is communication the value will immediately be overwritten by the value receive form the external module. Toggles the cursor between the output and the input bytes. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
In the following the meaning of the individual blocks of the telegram is explained further. IMPORTANT: During transfer/reception of data (i.e. the MAV) it is up to the master (the PLC) to ensure consistent data, when a parameter consisting of several bytes is read/updated and when AS/MAV or RS/MRV is read/set. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...

During communication from the slave to the master, the first two bytes of the PCD part are used as a Status Word (STW). Using the Status Word (STW) it is possible for the master to gain infor- mation on the status of the slave. WWW.EILERSEN.COM...
