Rice Lake Condec UMC600IS - Manual (Page 5)

Setting Up Custom Transmits (Smart I/O) for the UMC600IS/IQ700IS 5
In the same way that the TARE and TARE RECALL
keys step through the custom transmit files, the 1
SETPOINT and 2 SETPOINT keys will step forward
and backward through the individual characters in the
file (the lines on your worksheet). Press the
1
SETPOINT key to display the first character of file 7.1.
If the custom transmit has never been configured
before, the memory used to store the codes may be in
a “random” state. Do not be surprised if you find a
bunch of codes that do not seem to make any sense.
Enter File 7.1 per Table 2. Exit setup mode.
If the indicator is not displaying the gross mode, press
the
NET/GROSS key to display the gross weight.
Attach a weight simulator to the indicator, then dial
the weight up to 500 pounds and press the
PRINT key.
You get a ticket with the described format:
Figure 4. Print Example
Enter File 7.2 per Table 3 on page 3 and File 7.9
Table 4 on page 3. Tare the indicator then dial the
weight up to 800 pounds and press the
PRINT key.
Figure 5. Print Example
The first time you pressed the PRINT key, a ticket was
printed using custom transmit file 7.1. With a tare
weight in the indicator and the net weight on the
display, the ticket was printed using custom transmit
file 7.2. Although this may seem rather obvious, we
have received a few phone calls from technicians who
insisted that the custom transmit was not working
properly when they simply had not done a tare or are
not in the net mode.
Summary
The following are some general points summarizing
what is covered in this document.
• Custom transmits are configured using option 7
of the indicator.
• Close DIP switches 2 and 3 to enter option
configuration mode.
• If the display shows “ ------ ” with switches 2 and
3 closed, press and hold ENT for the option
menu.
• ZERO steps forward through the options.
• NET/GROSS toggles the option on or off.
• TARE steps forward through the option’s
subparameters (7.1, 7.2, 7.3, etc.).
• TARE RECALL steps backward through the
options and subparameters.
• Lb/kg CONV toggles subparameters on and off.
• 1 SETPOINT steps forward through the codes in
a custom transmit or macro.
• 2 SETPOINT steps backward through the codes
in a custom transmit or macro.
• Files 7.1 and 7.2 print the gross data and net data
in normal mode on port 1.
• Custom transmit files may contain up to 30
codes.
• Macros (7.9 - 7.16) may be called by your
custom transmit files to print custom transmits
up to 250 characters long.
• You may use any of the ASCII codes and
parameter control codes, found in the back of
this document or in the UMC600IS/IQ700IS
manual.
• You may use any of the control codes listed in
your printer’s programming guide as long as
those codes are between 1 and 127 inclusive.
• Parameters 600-607 call macros 1-8,
respectively, from your custom transmit files.
• Parameter 700 causes the UMC600 to pause for
the delay period specified in parameter 14.2
(refer to the indicator manual).
• Parameters 400-402 print the time and/or date
according to option 3 setup.
• To enter a code into a file, enter the code number
and press the
ENT key to enter it or 1 SETPOINT
to enter the code and move on to the next code.
• To insert a code, press the ENT key to move all
of the codes from the current code on one place
to the right, making an open space (a null code
0) that you may replace by typing the new code
and pressing either the
ENT or 1 SETPOINT key.
• To delete a code from the table, select the code
using the
1 SETPOINT and 2 SETPOINT keys,
then press the CE key.
