EXPLANATION OF PARAMETERS FOR THE HI 1756WS AND HI 1756-2WS
Channel Active
This flags a channel as active or inactive. With this set to 0 (off), the weigh channel and scale LED on the front will be inactive.
Cal Year - year of last calibration (if entered)
Cal Month - month of last calibration (if entered)
Cal Day - day of last calibration (if entered)
Cal Id - Operator ID or initials doing calibration (if entered)
Cal Type- Read only providing trace ability results the last successful calibration type.
Tare Weight
Used in conjunction with the Net weight and is equal to the difference between the Gross weight and Net weight (Gross - Tare = Net). The tare weight is the amount of weight "tared" off the scale that you do not want to see in the net weight amount. Ex: you put a pallet on the scale and "tare" out the weight of the pallet so you start weighing at zero. The tare weight would be the weight of the pallet. [NOTE: tare command can only be used if the Tare Enable bit is set to on.] Scale will not tare if scale is in motion.
Metric
Setting selection for weight readings, either lbs or kg. Set to 0 for lbs, 1 for kgs.
WAVERSAVER®
Setting for level of vibration protection. Each setting is for different frequency range of vibration. The lower the frequency WAVERSAVER setting takes a longer final weight reading. Use the lowest WAVERSAVER setting to allow you the best and fastest reading.
Selections are 0-4; 7.5hz, 3.5hz, 1.0hz, 0.5hz, 0.25hz respectively.
Span Weight
Amount of test weight placed on the scale for the cal high point during hard calibration. Prefer to use 80 to 100% of target load.
CalLoWeight
Amount of weight (normally zero) used for the low point during hard calibration or reference point during C2 calibration. If the vessel had material in the scale, that amount can be acknowledged as an amount over gross zero.
Averages
Number of readings module will use and average together to get weight reading. Ex: 5 averages means last 5 weight readings added together and divided by 5. Module takes reading every 20 ms, so every 20 readings will cause a 400 ms update time to get to new reading. This can cause delays in the final weight reading and are used to combat impacting on the scale. Use only as required for a faster weight reading.
Zero Track Enable
bit to set to allow the module to zero out any product build up on scale up to the auto zero tolerance amount without operator intervention.
ROC Time Base
Length of time, over which the module will calculate what the rate of change of weight on the scale. Update time is divided by 20 to give the time between updates.
Zero Tolerance
Amount of gross weight deviation from original calibration zero point that you will allow to be set to zero. Ex: after weighing process, some product is spilt on the scale so it does not return to zero for starting new process. You can zero the scale so it starts at zero without having to clean the scale off at this time. Zero tolerance is the limit of how much you can spill on the scale and zero off before you have to clean off the scale. Only used if the Zero Enable bit is set to on. Scale will not zero if scale is in motion.
Auto Zero Tolerance
Same as the zero tolerance, but is the limit for letting the module zero off the weight automatically. This is not used unless you have the Zero Track Enable bit set to on. If used, gross weight will zero whenever gross weight is within the auto zero tolerance and scale is no
