Rice Lake iQUBE2 Digital Diagnostic Junction Box - Manual (Page 29)

Configuration 25
CONFIG Menu
1. Use the CONFIG menu to select the iQUBE 2 board and
cell configuration.
2. Use the CELLS submenu to enter load cell IDs, capaci-
ties, and factory sensitivity values (optional).
3. The Scale Setup display is divided into three areas:
• Potential Scales (center section): Highlight the scale
being configured, then use the left arrow key to move
to the Available Scales section.
• Available Cells (left section): Use this section to assign
cells to the system. Use the UP ( ) and DOWN ( )
keys to highlight the desired cell, then press the Add
softkey to assign the cell.
• Associated Cells (right section): Lists cells that have
been assigned to the scale. Added cells will change
the visual representation of the scale base shown at
the bottom of the screen. Make sure the location of
the cells on the screen matches that of cells on the
actual scale to ensure diagnostic and trimming func-
tions will correctly work.
Scale 5 is the total scale. When it is highlighted, defined scales are available for summing.
4. Press Done to accept the configuration.
5. Continue through the CONFIG menu to set the sample rate, digital i/o, and communications parameters.
Associating Digital I/O
1. Use the DIGIO parameter to specify the function of each digital i/o bit. By default, Bits 1-4 are set to OFF .
Higher number bits (secondary boards) are set to cell health by default and cannot be changed.
Revolution III should be used to fully configure the parameters shown in Table 3-2.
Setting COMM Parameters and Downloading Configuration
1. Use the COMM parameter to set the iQUBE 2 baud rate, end-of-line delay (0-255, in 0.1-second intervals),
and RS-485 address (not recommended for the 920i).
2. Connect to the 920i (see Section 3.1.1 on page 21).
3. Once the entire iQUBE
2 configuration is complete, press the Download softkey under the Configuration menu.
Serial configuration changes require downloading; however, changes made under the Scale menu are made in
real-time at the
iQUBE 2 .
4. Use the UP ( ) and DOWN ( ) keys to select Download iQUBE 2 configuration only , then press ENTER .
