Introduction

This technical guide will provide instructions on how to install and set up the analog output in a T403S, T405S,

and T419S indicator. The Analog Option is P/N: 825-250028. The T-Series analog output uses a 16-bit D/A and

provides approximately 16K divisions of accuracy over the temperature range of the product (-10 to 40C)

Installation

Install the analog output option PCB following the instructions supplied with the option kit or refer to the

appropriate Service manual. Set the jumpers P2 thru P8 for the desired current or voltage output using the

chart below. Connect the appropriate terminals on TB5 for voltage or current output to the PLC or other analog

input device. TB5 - 2 is Ground for Voltage outputs or Current Return for Current outputs. Refer to the Min/Max

Load Resistance ratings noted in the Analog Output Chart. Also check to make sure all S1 switches are in the

OFF position.

Analog Output Calibration Procedure

1. From the previous step in the Setup procedure press UNITS > CAL is displayed.

2. Ideally you should directly connect the analog input device to the Analog Option card to calibrate the

analog output, but a digital multimeter can also be used to establish the initial calibration. Fine adjustments

can then be made when connected to the user instrument.

3. Press SELECT > ZERO is displayed. Always perform the ZERO calibration prior to the SPAN adjustment

4. Use the following keys to adjust the analog output signal during the Zero and Span calibration

TARE will add +0.1 % SELECT will subtract -0.1 %

PRINT will add +5.0 % UNITS will subtract -5.0 %

When setting the ZERO adjustment approach the analog zero setting from the positive side of zero

Example: On a 4 to 20 mA adjustment, make the necessary adjustments until just slightly above 4.00 mA.

Then press the SELECT key until the external device indicates 4.00 mA. Do not press SELECT again as this

may cause non-linear readings at intermediate weight values

5. Press ZERO > ZERO is displayed

6. Press UNITS > SPAN is displayed

When setting the SPAN adjustment approach the analog span setting from the low side of span

Example: On a 4 to 20 mA adjustment, make the necessary adjustments until just slightly below 20.00 mA.

Then press the TARE key until the external device indicates 20.00 mA. Do not press TARE again as this may

cause non-linear readings at intermediate weight values. NOTE: It is recommended to re-check the Zero

calibration setting if signicant adjustments were made during the Span calibration to insure proper adjustment

7. Press ZERO > SPAN is displayed

8. Press TARE until OPTIONS is displayed

Setup Procedure

1. Press and hold F1 until PASS is displayed…

release F1 > 0 is displayed

2. Enter 3 0 8 8 and press ZERO > BUSY is

displayed and then SETUP

3. Press SELECT > CALIB is displayed

4. Press UNITS until > PORTS is displayed

5. Press SELECT > SERIAL is displayed

6. Press PRINT > OPTIONS is displayed

7. Press SELECT > BUS 1 is displayed

8. Press SELECT > ENABLE is displayed

9. Press SELECT > OFF is displayed. If ON is

displayed continue to step 11

10. Press UNITS > ON is displayed

11. Press ZERO > ENABLE is displayed

12. Press UNITS > AN.OUT is displayed

The LO and HI settings set the output range of

operation for the selected system parameter Initial

default settings: LO = 0 and HI = 5000 (default

capacity of the indicator)

13. Press SELECT > LO is displayed

14. Press SELECT > previous value is displayed

Enter the minimum value where the analog output

signal range begins. Typically, LO = 0 but any

value can be entered to set the starting point for

the minimum analog output signal

15. Press ZERO > LO is displayed

16. Press UNITS > HI is displayed

17. Press SELECT > previous value is displayed

Enter the maximum value where the analog

output signal range ends. Typically, HI = the

capacity of the scale but any value can be entered

to set the end point for the maximum analog

output signal.

18. Press ZERO > HI is displayed

Analog Output Protocol Setup

To complete the conguration requires setup of a protocol in the PORTS > PROTCL menu to output the

desired scale information to the Analog Option port. Use any available protocol PROT 1 thru 5

1. From the previous step in Calibration procedure press UNITS until PROT is displayed

2. Perform the required steps to setup a protocol with the following settings

a. TYPE x = B-CAST provides continuous output

b. BIND x = OPTION protocol settings apply to the Analog option card

c. ATTR x > PRNFT = 32 a pre-dened print format for the analog option

d. ATTR x > INHIB = OFF continuous output not disabled by motion settings

e. ATTR x > RATE = 20 output data at the fastest rate setting

3. After completing the above protocol setup press TARE until SAVE NO is displayed

4. Press UNITS > SAVEYES is displayed

5. Press ZERO > BUSY is displayed. The indicator will reboot and return to normal weighing
