Keypad The Model 675 comes with a durable and versatile Polymeric switch plate with large keys for ease of use. The keypad is easily cleaned with a damp cloth or non-abrasive cleaner. Figure 4: Model 675 Keypad UNCTIONS All of the keys perform different functions. Some keys have more than one function.
Rear Panel The Model 675 comes standard with 2 communication ports which use Male DB-9 connectors. Also a remote base can be connected to the SCALE 2 Female DB-9 connector. The positions that are shown with dotted lines are available for options such as scale 3 and 4, Ethernet, communication ports and setpoints.
Figure 5: Model 675 Back Panel Label Back Panel Connections Connections for a second scale, Com1 and Com 2 ports are standard with the Model 675. Connector pin outs are provided in the tables below. Refer to Table 4 below for the pin of Com 3 and Com 4 ports (optional).
The rechargeable battery option kits (24675B-120B0) 24 hour or (24675B-121B0) 12 hour provide remote operation for parts counting. Simply plug the Model 675 into an AC outlet to recharge the battery pack. The battery packs need to be cycled every thirty days to ensure the longest possible battery shelf life.
5. Gently snap the battery charging board onto the standoffs. Be sure the Model 675 is turned off before connecting the battery to the battery charging board. 6. Connect 299290-41132 battery interface cable from J1 of the battery charging board to J3 of the main board.
50 % 25 % Battery Disconnected Once the battery is disconnected, the current battery icon will disappear. Charge Pending The Model 675 has been plugged into a power outlet. This only appears for a few seconds when AC power is applied.
When the battery voltage reaches a low battery condition the battery icon will cycle between 25%, 0%, blank. It is recommended that the Model 675 be plugged into an outlet within 10 minutes to recharge the battery so data is not lost .
3. Attach the battery tray to the battery holder cavity of the bottom plate using (2) 38-21-2610 self-tapping screws. The cable of the battery holder needs to face the slot in the battery holder cavity. 4. Put the rubber grommet of the battery holder cable into the slot of the battery holder cavity.
4. Use the (2) M5 self-tapping screws to fasten the option-mounting bracket to the Model 675 enclosure. For the installation drawing refer to Figure 8. 5. Reinstall the enclosure bottom plate. Figure 8: Installing the Option Mounting Bracket Use caution when removing the bottom plate.

HAPTER ONFIGURATION The GSE 675 Precision Counting Scale comes from the factory with the Application Menu enabled. This is where you will choose the preferred method of parts counting. See the explanations of each method below. After each counting method are the instructions for setting up that method.
F2 Soft Key- GSE Custom Presently APW LOOKUP is the only application offered under GSE Custom. New modes will be added in the near future. Please check out the GSE website gse-inc.com for new updates. The APW LOOKUP offers the flexibility of storing and recalling part numbers. The average piece weight and part description will be stored and recalled with the part number.
The preset applications will be lost but can be reestablished at parameter 65002 (See technical reference manual for more details). The Model 675 can still be used as a parts counter after it is factory defaulted. Refer to page 57 for more details on simple counting.

An enabled scale is a fully active scale accessible from the weigh mode for viewing via key. All weight-based operating parameters for the enabled scale will be considered valid instances when using them in macros or when assigning operating parameters to setup parameters.

P174: Zero Offset Assigns the zero offset for the analog output. If set to “None!” the full zero offset is assumed to be zero (0). To specify a different zero offset value, assign a variable to P174. Then, assign the desired zero offset value to the assigned variable. It is advisable to configure the variable for auto-save at P684 to ensure the value is retained during power loss.

P200 – P204: Protocol Selects the comm port’s communication protocol. The port’s protocol must match that of the connected device. P205: Receive Mode Selects the comm port’s receive mode. If the port is disabled, all received data is ignored If the port is set to standard receive, all receive characters are processed normally. If the port is set to interpret, all received characters are screened through the input interpreter (P217 P224) before being used or discarded.

P250: RS-485 Enable This parameter only affects comm port 1. It enables RS-485. Enabling this parameter detrimental effect on RS-232 operation. Enabling this parameter changes how data is transmitted see the %q macro and RS-485 sections for more details. P251: RS-485 Network Address This parameter assigns the RS-485 network address for the indicator (COMM1 only).
(APPS) PPLICATIONS The applications refer to the preprogrammed files that are included with the Model 675. If you choose to reload one of the application files press at the Apps tab. An access code must be entered to reinstate the application menu.
This chapter will give detailed operation instructions on how to use each preprogrammed mode. The Model 675 is designed to operate from the 5 soft keys or the dedicated keys of the keypad. The advantage of using the soft keys is they are placed in succession for easy operation.

ENERAL OTES ON ALIBRATION • Pressing at any point in the calibration routine moves back one step. • Pressing at the New Zero? prompt exits calibration mode. • A calibration weight can be applied before or after entering the calibration weight value. The display prompts you to Keyin CalWt (key in calibration weight) or Add CalWT (add calibration weight) at the appropriate time.

The most common calibration procedure, New Zero Example: New Zero Calibration establishes a new zero (no load) and span (test load) calibration reference. Use this method for first-time calibration and complete re-calibration. Zero? To perform a New Zero calibration: 1. Remove all weight from the scale. Mot’n 2.
Page 71
Example: Last Zero Calibration Last Zero allows span re-calibration without Gross removing the applied test weight. The last zero established by pressing from the weigh mode will be used as the zero reference. This procedure is especially useful when performing routine Gross tolerance checks on large capacity scales.
Page 72
Example: EMPORARY Temporary Zero Calibration Temp Zero is used to calibrate without establishing 2105) a new zero. Calibration can be performed without Gross removing the currently applied gross load. A temporary zero is established so that test weights ACCESS CALIBRATION MODE can be added during calibration.
Page 73
Example: Only Zero Calibration Only Zero is used for zero calibration only. This calibration procedure is primarily used for the zero Gross reference after changing a scale’s dead-load, such as adding safety rails to a scale deck or installing a ACCESS CALIBRATION MODE mixer motor on a hopper scale.

ALIBRATION ESET Cal Reset sets the gain factors of the A/D amplifier to minimum values and clears the A/D’s zero offset. These gain values are stored in the Information Parameters at P61104 P61107 (see the If an over-load condition exists at Calibration Parameters section).

ULTI OINT INEARIZATION Multi-point linearization provides up to five calibration points for each scale input. This allows you to compensate for load cell non-linearity. Multi-point linearization must be enabled in the setup mode at P119. Once enabled, you can define up to five points of linearization in during the calibration routine.
