5.0 Customer or Product ID and Load/Deliver
When the Load/Deliver mode has been enabled (See “Advanced Setup” on page 22.), each customer account or
product being loaded or delivered will need a unique identification (ID) number. The ID number can be selected
prior to pickup or delivery by using either the indicator keypad, an external keypad, or an optional bar-code
scanner.

display will show ID Number selection.

The information display will show Add ID.
Record #001 and the last number of the weight

is ready to be changed.

5.2 Using the Customer or Product ID with
Load/Deliver
Calibrate the PL9710 indicator as outlined in Chapter 3,
Calibration, using 00000 for EMPTY weights. Enter
the net payload values obtained from a certified scale
for the FULL values. When calibrating the system, fill
the trailer with payload to no less than 80% of the
maximum full load. Since the empty weights are set at
00000 during calibration, the gross-weight reading will
be the same as the net-weight reading.
In the single-channel mode, the Accumulator function
can be used to add (or subtract, if delivering) each
individual pickup to previous pickups and store the
accumulated total in the indicator’s internal memory.
At the end of the job, a grand total of all pickups is
available.
A paper ticket can also be printed for each individual
pickup or delivery if a printer is attached and enabled
through the serial port at the back of the indicator (See
“Using the Serial Ports” on page 12.). The paper ticket
will show:
• ID number
• Weights
• Date
• Time of day
Figure 5-1. Paper Ticket Example
The Accumulator function is not available in the
2-channel mode but paper tickets may be printed with a
properly attached and enabled printer.
The following steps will guide you in using the
customer or product ID in the Load/Deliver mode.
For single-channel operation, make sure Accumulator
(if desired) and Load/Deliver have been enabled. See
“Advanced Setup” on page 22.
1. Select Load/Deliver by pressing the
LD
softkey.
The red LED labeled LD at the left of the weight
display should be lit.
2. Select the correct customer or product ID by
pressing the
ID
softkey.
The information display will briefly show Select
ID number and then show Select ID.
Use the
Up
and
Down
keys until the correct ID
shows in the weight display and then press the
Select
softkey.
3. Before picking up or delivering each load, press
the
Zero
key.
As each load or delivery is made, the net weight
shown in the information display will increase or
decrease to show the total of all the pickups or
deliveries.
