How can I display the decimal points of an Integer out word from an HI 3000 or 4000 series unit?

I have a 100 lb scale and want two decimal points. I have the two decimal point set in the instrument, but the two decimal are dropped during communications. How can I display the decimal points of an Integer out word from my Hardy Weight Controller?

Can I mix different model load cells?

We have a system with 4 load cells and one load cell needs to be replaced. Do I have to use the same manufacturer and model, or can I mix different model load cells together on the same system? Will my C2 function still work?

Why won't my HI 3030 display 4 channels?

I can't setup more than channel 1 in my HI 3030, which has options: -PM-AD-JB-00-DN. I want to add 2 scales but only configurations for channel 1 appears in the controller and in the WEB server. I have  searched the manual and can not find the answer. Can you list the input options for my HI 3030?

How do I protect my controllers, systems and scales from static electricity?

How do I connect a load cell simulator to the 1771-RT?

In order to do some testing on my new HI 1771WS I built a circuit to emulate a load cell. I understand that I have to provide +10 VDC and ground to it, and in return it will provide a 0-30 mV level in relation to a pot's position over 2 wires (-sig & + sig). Will this work to emulate the actual load cell? I only found where it is mentioned that the 1771-RT goes to the "load cell" without any further explanation/wiring diagram. Where do I hook it up on the HI 1771WS or the 1771-RT?

What does the blinking LED's signify on my HI 2151/30WC?

The weight deviation in the upper range on our HI 2151/30WC has been growing slowly over the last couple of months. I noticed that the status LED's for Alarm 1 + 2 were blinking alternatively with the LED's for 'Zero Track' + 'Motion' + 'CTR Zero'. The weight reading on the display was normal. After switching the module off and on the LED's were still blinking. Measurement of Excitation, Sense and Signal wires gave normal results. The unit was switched off and on once again, after which the LED's were not blinking anymore. Could you give me an explanation for the blinking LED's? Could this also cause a weight deviation?

Common PLC definitions

I'm starting a learning curve with your products and am not familiar with many of the acronyms used. Can you provide a definition for common PLC terms? 

How does the 2 sigma test routine function on the HI 2160RC?

With regards to the 2160RC plus, how does the two sigma test routine function?

Why is my HI 2160RC always in REC mode when changing set points?

My 2160RC rate controller stays in constant REC when I send a new set point over my communications option.  What is wrong?
