Page 46: Database Setup Instructions
Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual ATABASE ETUP NSTRUCTIONS ’ ATABASE A database is a collection of useful information that is organized in a specific manner for easy access. For instance, a telephone directory can be thought of as a database. See Figure 2-13.
Page 47 Option Installation There are many other possible uses for a Database, as well. Up to 250 databases can be accessed. Several different applications can be combined in one installation. RANSACTION ECORDER ATABASE Using a Transaction Recorder database, every weighing operation that occurs on the scale can be stored to memory with other pertinent data.
Page 48: Database Menu
When parameter P806 is set for "dbase," the basic Database Menu can be accessed. To access this menu, press the [ALPHA] key while the Model 672/675 is in one of the weigh modes (any mode below mode 90). The basic Database Menu provides just four selections of operations. To view these selections you press the [SELECT] key.
Page 49 The recall operation is used when information - such as the description, target weight, and/or quantity on hand - is needed about an item. This particular operation is used when the look-up data has already been entered into the corresponding Model 672/675 parameter. B. An entry followed by the [ENTER] key:...
Page 50 This selection is normally used to generate hard copy reports of the information stored within the Model 672/675. It can also be useful in generating an end of day report. 2-23...
Page 51 4. Press [ENTER] to invoke the command. Most advanced commands require an entry before you press [ENTER]. Once the command is executed, most commands return the Model 672/675 to the weigh mode that was in effect before you pressed [ALPHA].
Page 52 Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual UNCTION A. [ENTER] key alone: The "Next row" command causes the very next row of the currently selected database to be recalled. This can be used after the "First row" command to cause every stored row to be sequentially recalled and processed in some manner.
Page 53 Option Installation LEAR OLUMN UNCTION A. [ENTER] key alone: The "Clear Colmn" command cannot be invoked without a numeric entry. If it is invoked without an entry, the "ENTRY ERROR" message is displayed. B. An entry followed by the [ENTER] key: This version of the "Clear Colmn"...
Page 54 ID for the currently selected column, the key column will be reset to the first column. Also, if the Model 672/675 is re-initialized, the selected column will be reset to the first column of the first database that has been set up. For example, keying in [·] 80.9 [ENTER] will semi-permanently set the key field for the selected database to be the column whose parameter ID is variable 80 for instance number 9.
Page 55 (P688). Variable type is a U-INT set at P686. To download the database and intend to reload it back into a Model 672/675 in the future, add ".1" to the COMM number selection (for example, 2.1), press [ENTER], select COM2, and allow upload characters to be added to the beginning of the file.
Page 56 RS-232 communication ports. After you press the [ENTER] key for this selection, the Model 672/675 begins reading in rows of data from the COMM port. During the upload, a counter displays the number of rows created. If the count exceeds 99999 then the displayed count becomes ####x where #### are the four most significant digits and 'x' represents a place holder for the least significant digits.
Page 57 During the sort, a counter that indicates the number of rows that have been sorted is displayed. Press [CLR] to abort the process. If you do not press [CLR], the Model 672/675 will continue sorting until it reaches the end of the database.
Page 58 Sorting a database can occur after working hours or any time the Model 672/675 is not in use. To do this, you can set an Alarm to invoke a macro that, in turn, will perform the database sort. The Model 672/675 must be powered up for sorting to occur.
Page 59 OWNLOAD ORMAT The "Down-load" command, selection 13, is used to transmit the contents of one of the Model 672/675 databases in a comma delimited, ASCII file. This format is suitable for uploading the information into a computer database or spreadsheet or for transmitting to another GSE 672/675 using the "Up-load" selection.
Page 60 PLOAD ORMAT The same rules for the format of a downloaded file apply to a file being uploaded into the Model 672/675 database. However, the alpha parameters are not required to be enclosed in double quotation marks (" "). Before you can load a database, the setup must be established to match that of the file. If the uploaded file has more columns than the database setup in the Model 672/675, the additional columns being uploaded will be ignored.
Page 61 NTIRE ATABASE P65010 can be used to completely clear out the Model 672/675 database data and setup. However, the deletion is not final until you exit the setup mode and save all changes. Use the following procedure to clear out the database.
Page 62 EIGHT If the default weight units P150 are changed on the Model 672/675, any weight data stored in a database is not affected. However, if it is later printed or recalled, the Model 672/675 assumes that the stored data is in the current default units of measure.

Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual Figure 2-14: Setpoint and Analog Output Option Mounting ETPOINT ETUP NSTRUCTIONS ETPOINT ETUP ARAMETERS The setpoint setup parameters are detailed in Chapter 3 beginning on page 3-52. The setup for all the setpoints begins at parameter P5099 and continues through P5150. To access the setup for any setpoint, you must enter the Setpoint Setup Mode number and press [SELECT].
Page 69 The multiple setpoint option cards enable as many as 128 input connections. Various devices - such as photo-detectors or proximity switches - can be connected to the Model 672/675, signaling a closed or open contact. Such devices can be used to sense the presence of a container before a filling process is begun, or the presence of a truck over an axle-weighing scale.
Page 70 If the file is in ASCII form, the setup procedure is the quickest of all approaches. GSE recommends that you back up all custom setups on a PC and diskette. This will make service calls and resale of the same program much easier.

Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual ARAMETER ESCRIPTIONS This section provides a brief description of each setup parameter. Parameters are presented in numeric order. Refer to this section when installing options to ensure proper configuration. Scale Configuration The scale configuration parameters provide the basic configuration for each enabled scale.
Page 113 Application Setup P116: Digital Filter Selects the degree of A/D filtering used in calculating weight-based parameters. The longer the filter duration, the more stable the weight will appear. However, increasing the filter duration will also result in a slower response to rapidly changing weights and may therefore be undesirable in applications that require a prompt and accurate response to weight fluctuations.
Page 114 Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual P136: Rate Time Unit Sets the time measurement criteria for calculating the rate (i.e. rate/second, rate/minute, rate/hour). P142: Center of Zero Annunciator Enables the center-of-zero annunciator. In multi-scale applications, disabling the center-of-zero annunciator will allow you to view the scale number when the weight is at center-of-zero.
Page 115 Application Setup P172: Output Parameter Assigns the operating parameter that the analog output will track. P173: Full Scale Output Assigns the full scale analog output. If set to "None!" the full scale capacity assigned at P110 is assumed. To specify a different full scale value, assign a variable to P173.
Page 116 Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual P183: Required Accuracy Selects the accuracy requirement for sampling and auto enhancement. P184: Accuracy Display Enable Enables the accuracy display. When enabled, the calculated accuracy of the current sample will be shown on the display.

The default name used when transmitting the time & date parameter can be changed in the setup mode at P611 (see page 3-49). CCUMULATION Many applications such as multiple dump batching systems and inventory control require accumulation of weight values.
Page 142: Multi-Range
Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual REVENTING OUBLE CCUMULATIONS Double accumulations occur when the same load is added to the accumulation totals more than once. This potential problem can be eliminated by properly setting the Return-to-Zero setup parameter (P122 RTZ). The RTZ parameter mandates that the applied gross weight fall below a predetermined value before the next accumulation may occur.
Page 143 (same as before, except it now applies to 1.25 grads for lowest defined range.). When [ZERO] is pressed, if the Model 672/675 is within the zero range, then it re-establishes a new zero, clears the tare, and sets the range to the low range.
Page 144 • MIN_RES 1 In case of a resolution or range error, once a key is pressed the Model 672/675 returns to the setup parameter in question. The multi-range feature does not take effect during the cal mode. The increment during cal is always that specified by P111 or the associated increment for alternate units.

Page 172: Chapter 7 : Operating Parameters
PERATING ARAMETERS The 672/675 use many system defined memory registers to store operational data. Most of these registers, or parameters, may be accessed from the weigh mode to monitor or change the scale's operation. The gross, net and tare registers are examples of operating parameters. In the setup mode, operating parameters can be used as conditions for setpoints, define analog outputs, define database columns, and serve countless functions when used in macros.
Page 173: Parameter Instances
Operating Parameters Most operating parameters are accessible directly from the weigh mode. Whereas setup parameters are numbered P108 → P50001, operating parameters are numbered 0P → 99P. To further distinguish between setup parameters and operating parameters, this manual identifies setup parameters with a preceding "P"...

Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual OUNDED ROSS ARAMETER The rounded gross parameter represents the displayed gross weight exactly as displayed, rounded internally to the nearest scale division. This parameter cannot be displayed and therefore cannot be selected as a mode of operation.
Page 185: Free Fall (Mode 24)
The free fall parameter represents the number of seconds it takes for product in free fall to reach the scale. The free fall value is not calculated by the 672/675. It must be assigned manually or through a macro command. Once assigned, this value is used to calculate the weight of product in free fall based on the current flow rate.
Page 186: Future Net (Mode 26)
Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual For example, suppose you want to fill a hopper to a target weight of 500 lbs. If the current flow rate is 5.0 lb/sec and the free fall time is 2 seconds, then there would be 10 lbs of product in free fall. The future gross weight then becomes the current gross weight plus 10 lbs.
Page 187: Quantity Total (Mode 31)

It is still possible to change the value of a locked VAR through the use of various macro commands. The Model 672 and Model 675 have 8 independent timers that begin at zero (0) upon power-up and increment by 1/747 second intervals continuously thereafter. These timers can be used in macros to calculate elapsed times or in setpoints to provide a precise time interval between events.

The receive buffer for each communication port can be programmed to a specified byte size at P208 in the setup mode. Received characters are stored in this buffer until the Model 672/675 has a chance to process the data. Normally, data is processed quickly after it is received. One exception is during macro execution.

Thus if the transmitting device's transmit buffer is 1K or less, the Model 672/675 will be able to receive the additional data while handshaking is de- asserted without resulting in an over-run error (lost data). When the Model 672/675 receive buffer drops to 2K bytes full, handshaking will be re-asserted and data transfer will resume.

Page 241: Macro Setup
Macros One of the most powerful operating features of the Model 672 and Model 675 is the macro programming language. A macro is a programmable routine used to automate a process. A simple macro might consist of a single command to zero a scale upon receiving a remote key input. Complex process control applications are also possible using the vast macro command set to program multiple event-driven macro routines.

Model 672/675 Technical Reference Manual DITING ACROS Characters may be added to or deleted from any point in a macro table. AVIGATING A ACRO ABLE A macro table begins at P10001 and ends at the end-of-table character. Each character in the macro table, including the end-of-table character, represents one unique parameter location within the table.
Page 245: Deleting Macros
Macros ELETING ACROS Macros can be deleted collectively or individually. Deleting macros collectively is usually performed just prior to uploading macros of a new setup file. This ensures that no macros from the previous setup will remain after the new setup is loaded. Deleting macros individually is done for several reasons. Delete an unused macro to conserve memory.

Page 249: Macro Stack
Macros • Custom Transmits • Enabled Analog Outputs • A/D Interval In general, the more non-macro functions the scale must perform, the less often the processor can execute macro commands. For example, the processor receives 60 A/D interrupts each second during which time it must update all active weight parameters.
