Chapter 1: Important information Important information Please read this installation information carefully and observe all instructions! Please contact the Sales Office if there are items which are missing or have been wrongly delivered, or if you encounter any other problems with the terminal. These instructions are intended for those who have a basic but adequate knowledge of the design of weighing systems.
Chapter 2: Attaching weighing platforms Attaching weighing platforms All analog weighing platforms can be attached to the terminals if they are conform to the required specifications (see chapter 5). Two different weighing platforms can be attached if the terminal also has an OptionPac with an analog option. Compact two-scale systems can therefore be constructed using just one terminal.
Chapter 2: Attaching weighing platforms Attaching the weighing platform to the terminal Before assembling, the terminal must first be disconnected from the power supply! Undo the gland nut of the heavy gauge cable gland and remove this together with the black crimping ferrule and the two washers. Undo the rear cover plate of the terminal (6 Torx T20 screws) and fold down carefully (cable connections!).
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal Configuring the terminal The configuration data of the weighing system must be known before the terminal can be configured (see chapter 5). The IND4.. terminal has a service level for entering configuration data as well as for calibrating and linearization of the weighing system. This level is protected by a password.
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal Summary of menu blocks of the service level The complete menu is available including those menu blocks to which operators and supervisors have access. The following summary shows only those menu blocks of the service level in the menu “SCALE”. The rest of the menu is described in the operating instructions.
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal Admissibility for certification ( SCALE –> Metrology ) Display Remarks Setting the admissibility for certification: MEtROLO Scale not certifiable. NO APPr ▼ Scale certifiable to OIML. OIML Caution: When a scale is declared certifiable, then certain settings are no longer available.
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal Entering the configuration data ( SCALE –> Scale Build ) Display Remarks Entering configuration data SCAL.bLd Defining the type of scale ––> chapter 3.8.1 SCAL.tYP Specifying the basic units ––> chapter 3.8.2 bAS.UNIt Specifying the capacity of the weighing system ––>...
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal Setting the scale capacity ( SCALE –> Scale Build –> Scale Capacity ) 3.8.3 Display Remarks Entering the scale capacity (in the preset basic unit). SCL.CAP For KMT-TM terminals, the capacity can be entered via the numeric keyboard. For 000015.0 kg KMB-TM / KMS-TM terminals, press the key.
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal 3.10 Linearization with calibration ( SCALE –> Lin-Cal ) Display Remarks Linearizing the scale system with simultaneous calibration. LIN - CAL Calibration is carried out purely theoretically to compensate for shifts in the full load when linearizing. The loads applied are checked (±5%) and thus a basic calibration must first be carried out (chapter 3.11).
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal 3.11 Basic calibration ( SCALE –> Cal ) Display Remarks The basic calibration corresponds to the calibration function for the user (however, the user cannot set the preload). Apply the preload and confirm with the key.
Chapter 3: Configuring the terminal 3.13.1 Setting the zero capturing range ( SCALE –> Zero –> Zero Capture ) Display Remarks Setting the zero capturing range (when switching on and via the key). Z - CAPt Zero capturing range –2% to +18% - 2 18 Zero capturing range –2% to +2% (mainly for certifiable scales) ▼...
Chapter 5: Setting up a weighing system and technical data Setting up a weighing system and technical data Before setting up a weighing system with the terminal, its basic data must first be determined. These data are to be entered into the service level of the menu (chapter 3).

Chapter 5: Setting up a weighing system and technical data Measuring ranges of the terminal When setting up a weighing system, consider the measuring ranges of the terminal according to the summary given below. a: Total preload applied to weighing Total capacity of weighing cell(s) cell when calibrating (upper part of platform, weighing pan, roller track,...
Chapter 5: Setting up a weighing system and technical data Technical data Only those specifications needed for using this installation information are shown below. The other technical data are given in the operating instructions. Data for the terminal Resolution 300 000 points for non-certifiable applications 7 000 points for certifiable applications Weighing ranges Up to 3 weighing ranges defined in the menu, incl.
Chapter 6: Event and error messages Event and error messages Overload: Reduce the load on the scale or reduce the preload. gjjjjh Underload: Place the weighing pan on the scale and ensure it can move freely. eiiiif iiiiii Result not stable: Always appears when not stable (when zeroing, taring, etc.). If the scale still does not become stable after a long time, check the environmental conditions.
