Technical Support Department for any and all repairs. Unpacking The Any-Weigh Bench scales are shipped fully assembled and only require adjustment of the leveling feet. If there is any damage to the shipping container or to the scale, save all the packaging material and file a report with the shipper.

Any-Weigh™ Series Bench Scales Carefully note which wire is connected in the loop to maintain correct polarity within the loop. To reduce the change of ground loops do not connect any of the scales signal wires to earth ground. (See Fig. 3-7)
Chapter 4 - Configuration CHAPTER 4 - CONFIGURATION SCOPE The Universal Scale and the Analog Scale do not require any configuration. The DeviceNet scale con- figuration consists of setting the baud rate and node address on a DIP switch which is accessible through an access port on the bottom of the scale.
Any-Weigh™ Series Bench Scales Accessing the DIP Tilt the scale up until you can reach the DIP Switch Switch access port or if it is more convenient turn the scale upside down so that bottom is facing up to reach the DIP Switch access port.
Chapter 5 - Setup CHAPTER 5 - SETUP SCOPE All information contained in Chapter 5 pertains to software or firmware settings or procedures to prepare the DeviceNet Scale for calibration and operation. Alternatives to these procedures either explicit or implied, contained in this section are not recom- mended.

Any-Weigh™ Series Bench Scales imal places in the 32 bit integer weight outputs. The value 0 causes these weight outputs to be in floating point format. NOTE: This applies ONLY to the weights as viewed through the I/O (Command) interface. The explicit message interface continues to use 3 decimal place 32 bit inte- ger format only.
Chapter 5 - Setup Most of the DeviceNet Scales’ parameters are only 1 byte long, making it possible to write them with a sin- gle command. There are also some 4 byte parameters. To write one of them: Step 1. First write the 2 most significant bytes, using a WRITE command as described above, with 0x27 in the parameter number...

Any-Weigh™ Series Bench Scales ® THE BUTTON Enables one-touch electronic calibration of the scale when it is empty. Access to THE BUTTON and asso- ciated Module LED is located at the bottom of the scale through an access port. (See Fig. 6-1)
Chapter 6 - Calibration Step 3. Double click on the Node Icon of the weigh module you want to calibrate. For example: Node 36. The DeviceNet Weigh Module Dialog Box appears. Step 4. Click on the Parameter tab. The Parameter List appears with the information for the weigh module at address 36.
All controls are accessible. from the underside of the scale. The ANY-WEIGH Analog Scale is calibrated at the factory for 4 mA current output with zero millivolt input and 20 mA output for 15 mV input. In some cases, the transmitter will require a very simple recali- bration to the system in which it is installed.
Chapter 6 - Calibration volt (of transducer excitation) will be represented by the 4-20 mA output range. The gain can be adjusted from 3 mV input per volt of excitation to as high as 0.8 mV input per volt of exci- tation.

Any-Weigh™ Series Bench Scales Step 6. Adjust the SPAN for 20 mA (2 V) for full- scale weight. For less than full-scale weight, perform the following steps: Divide: calibration weight/full- scale weight = (F)raction of full scale. Multiply: (F)(16 mA) = 1, the cur- rent caused by the calibration weight.

Chapter 6 - Calibration removed, or it can be left in the circuit for future measurements. Neither action will interfere with the system operation.
CHAPTER 7 - OPERATION SCOPE All information contained in Chapter 7 pertains to the operation of the ANY-WEIGH Bench Scales. We rec- ommend that the processes and procedures contained in this chapter be followed to insure that the module give the user maximum quality performance. It is very important that the user be familiar with this chapter before operating the weigh module.
Any-Weigh™ Series Bench Scales NOTE: Order of bytes must be least significant first. Monitoring Weight Step 1. On the PC open RS NetWorx. Readings from RS Step 2. Browse the Network. NetWorx Step 3. Double click on the Node Icon of the weigh module you want to monitor.
FAILURE IN A-D Table 7-2: SCALE STATUS Analog Scale The ANY-WEIGH Analog Scale powers itself and the attached strain gauge transducers from the 4-20 mA loop power. This allows sensitive strain gauge signals to be transmitted over long distances without the expense of installing additional power to remote loca- tions.
All the information in Chapter 8 pertains to the trou- bleshooting and resolution of operating problems that may occur. All maintenance personnel and users should be familiar with Chapter 8 before attempting to repair the ANY-WEIGH Scale. Problem: Scale Does Not Step 1.
