To exit configuration and store changes, press the CLEAR key when “CFG xx” is being
displayed.
To exit configuration and NOT store changes, enter 999 when “CFG xx” is being
displayed. The display prompts “Abort”. Press the ENTER key to abort (exit without
saving changes) or press the CLEAR key if you do not want to abort.
Example: Begin Calibration of the Scale-
The IDS440 is in the display weight mode. Hold the CLEAR key down and press the
ENTER key to enter the configure mode. The IDS440 prompts “CFG xx” where xx is
the last selected parameter. Enter 60 and then press the ENTER key. The IDS440
prompts “dEAdld”. Begin the calibration process or press the CLEAR key to exit.
Function 59 Display Calibration Audit Number.
Use function 59 to view the audit and configuration numbers, the software ID number,
and the status of the internal function lock.
The IDS440 provides a calibration audit number and a configuration number. They are
used to indicate changes to calibration data and configuration data and can be used in
place of mechanical seals by some regulatory agencies. The IDS440 audit number
increments each time a calibration parameter is changed (deadload or weight conversion
factor). The configuration number increments each time a password level 3 parameter is
changed. If physical seals are used, then place the internal function lock in the locked
position before sealing. Calibration and password level 3 parameters cannot be accessed
when the function lock is in the locked position.
1. Hold the CLEAR key down and press the ENTER key to enter the configure mode.
2. Enter CFG 59. The IDS440 prompts “A xxxx” where xxxx is the audit number.
3. Press the ENTER key. The IDS440 prompts “C xxxx” where xxxx is the current
calibration number.
4. Press the ENTER key. The IDS440 prompts “bixxxx” where bixxxx is the ID number
of the software installed in the IDS440.
5. Press the ENTER key. The IDS440 prompt “un-LoC” if the function lock is in the
unlocked position, or “Loc Ed” if the function is in the locked position.
Function 60 Calibrate Scale - Deadload First
Use function 60 to calibrate the scale by reading the deadload first and then reading the
span. Set the Scale Operation Parameters before using function 60. Best results are
obtained when the IDS440 and load cells have reached thermal equilibrium (power
applied for approximately 30 to 120 minutes depending on load cell size). NOTE:
function 60 automatically adjusts parameter 19 (deadload offset).
