Operating Design

The EC1XS-......-L series complete scale

is designed for mass determination in

zone 1, 2, 21 and 22 hazardous areas.

The scale consists of a weighing plat-

form and a display and control unit

(evaluation unit). In addition to the

basic weighing function, the complete

scale is equipped with programs for

toggling weight units and gross/net

weighing. Weight values can be trans-

ferred through a Zener barrier (e.g.,

option YDI05-Z) over an RS-232 port

(built-in) or an RS-422 port (optional)

to a printer or computer outside the

hazardous area. A foot switch can also

be connected to the scale.

An external power supply is required for

operation of the scale (option YPS05-X..

for installation in the hazardous area, or

YPS05-Z.. for the non-hazardous area).

Operation of the complete scale

follows a uniform philosophy, which is

described below.

Keys

You can operate the scale either using

the keys on the display and control

unit or from a connected computer.

Some keys have a second function,

activated by holding the key for

2 seconds rather than pressing briefly

(less than 2 seconds).

Operating menu settings are stored in

battery-backed memory. When you turn

on the scale, the most recent configura-

tion settings are active.

To exit the menu without saving

changes, press the e [On/Off/Stand-

by] key.

Data Output

The following interfaces are available

for data transfer:

- RS-232 (standard feature)

- RS-422 (optional accessory)

You can also connect a universal remote

control switch (foot switch) to the scale.

Please refer to “Documents for

Hazardous Areas” in the enclosed

“Installation Instructions and Safety

Information” manual.

Printer

Data output to the printer can be

adapted to certain requirements by

selected the corresponding settings in

the operating menu.

Printouts can be generated at the press

of a key (p [Print]) or automatically,

either dependent on or independent

of stability. You can also define whether

ID codes are included on the printout.

For details, see “Data Output Functions”

in the chapter entitled “Operation.”

Interface Port

You can connect a printer or other

peripheral device (such as a computer)

to the interface port. With a computer,

you can transmit commands over scale

interface to trigger and control certain

functions in the compact scale.

See “Data Output Functions” in the

chapter entitled “Operation” for a

detailed description of data output

options.

Error Messages

Error messages are displayed as follows

for 2 seconds:

- Operational error: “E” + 2 digits

- Hardware error: “E” + 3 digits

3- digit error messages are not cleared

after 2 seconds. If a 3-digit error

message appears, notify your nearest

Minebea Intec Service Center.

See the chapter entitled “Troubleshoot-

ing Guide” for detailed explanations

of error codes and messages.

Operation

Weighing

Purpose

The basic weighing function is available

in the compact scale at all times.

You can use this function alone, or in

combination with the application

programs (Toggling between weight

units, Gross/net toggling).

Features

– Zero the scale

Sometimes the scale does not show

a zero readout even though there is no

load on the weighing pan. This is gen-

erally due to unfavorable ambient con-

ditions. If the difference to zero does

not exceed 2% of the scale’s maximum

capacity, it can be corrected by zeroing

the scale.

– Tare the scale

To obtain a readout of the net weight

of a sample in a container, place the

empty container on the scale and press

the ) [Tare] key before adding the

sample.

– Print the results (optional connec-

tion) or transfer data over the interface

(optional connection) to a computer.

Calibration/Adjustment

Purpose

Calibration means to determine the

difference between the scale readout

and the actual weight on the scale,

to determine the scale’s accuracy.

Adjustment means to bring the scale

to the level of accuracy required for

its use.

Features

Calibration/adjustment can be

performed only when

– there is no load on the scale,

– the scale has been zeroed, and

– the internal signal is stable.

If these conditions are not met, an error

message is displayed (E 02).

The weight displayed for the sample

on the scale must not differ from the

nominal weight by more than 2%.

External adjustment can be performed

using any of the following weight units:

g, kg, lb (1 4 1 )

External calibration/adjustment can be

blocked (1 5 2 )

Synchronization

During data communication between

the scale and a connected device (com-

puter), messages consisting of ASCII

characters are transmitted via the inter-

face. For error-free data communica-

tion, the parameters for baud rate,

parity, handshake mode and character

format must be the same for both units.

You can set these parameters in the

Setup menu so that they match those

of the connected device. If you do not

connect a peripheral device to the

interface port, this will not generate

an error message.

Female Interface Connector:

For pin assignments, see the “Installa-

tion Instructions and Safety Informa-

tion” manual supplied with the scale.

Handshake

The scale interface (Minebea Intec

Balance Interface = SBI) has transmit

and receive buffers. You can define

the handshake parameter in the Setup

menu:

– Hardware handshake (CTS/DTR)

– Software handshake (XON, XOFF)

Hardware Handshake

With a 4-wire interface, 1 more

character can be transmitted after CTS

(Clear to Send).

Software Handshake

The software handshake is controlled

via XON and XOFF. When a device is

switched on, XON must be transmitted

to enable any connected device to com-

municate.

Data Output by Print Command

The print command can be transmitted

by pressing the p [Print] key or via

software command (Esc P).

Automatic Data Output

Activate the “auto print” operating

mode to have data output to the inter-

face port without a print command.

You can have data output automatically

at defined display update intervals,

with or without the stability parameter.

The length of a print interval depends

on the operating menu settings for

Ambient conditions (menu code 1 1 x).

If you activate the auto print setting,

data will be transmitted immediately

the moment you turn on the scale.
