Configuring the CW-90/90X
1. From the SETUP menu, navigate to CONFIG » FEATUR » CHKWGH.
2. Set DATA » TYPE to VAULT.
3. Set DATA » PORT to PORT 2 for use with the Internal WLAN option, or PORT 3 for the wired Ethernet
option. If using your own External converter, select the port you wired the converter to (PORT 1 or PORT
2).
4. Under the SERIAL menu, the TRIGGE parameter for the port selected must be set to something other than
OFF. Choose a parameter based on when the data should be sent to WeighVault.
5. If using multiple
CW-90/90X
units on the same network, set UID (Unit ID) to a desired identification
number. This number will be referenced in WeighVault to identify the unit.
6. Turn the CHKWGH » ID parameter to ON.

PC or Server configuration
Indicators communicate with the host PC through TCP
Port #9090. In order for this communication to take
place, the indicator's Ethernet or WLAN option card
needs to know the IP address of the host PC. Therefore,
the host will need a static (not dynamic) IP address.
If using a network server, ask yo ur ne two rk
administrator for the IP address of the server, and
confirm the address is static. If using a PC, refer to the
instructions supplied with the PC, or Windows, to help
you set up the computer with a static IP address.
If your PC or network is running a firewall, it may be
necessary to create an exception for TCP Port 9090.
Configuration Internal Ethernet or WLAN Option Cards
The Ethernet or WLAN option card will require
specific configuration to work properly with
WeighVault. Both option cards can be configured using
a network-based Windows application called Device
Installer, which is provided on the WeighVault DVD
and the CD included with the option card. However,
with the WLAN option card, an initial configuration is
required via RS-232 before Device Installer can be
used.
Note
Configuration of the Ethernet or WLAN option
card should be performed by someone familiar
with general computer networking, and more
specifically, familiar with the network the card is going to attach
to. At minimum, you must know the IP address and subnet of
the host PC, and if connecting via WLAN, the network SSID
and security settings (pass keys and phrases).
More detailed configuration instructions are available on the CD
and in the manuals provided with the option cards.
