Num Display Parameter
The Num Display parameter sets the number of displays to be shown in the split screen
mode. If a number less than four is selected, any display segments above the Num Display
value will be blanked (set to the background color)
On the Web page, this parameter is not configurable via the web interface.
On the HI 6500 series instrument display, select the display menu and use the UP or
DOWN button to select the Split Screen submenu, then select the Num Display menu item.
The current Num Display value will be displayed, press the ENTER or the RIGHT button
if this value needs to be modified.
Discover Command
This command starts the automatic HI 6500 series instrument network discovery of up to
four instruments. Once discovered, the instruments would be available for display in the
split screen mode.
On the Web page, this parameter is not configurable via the web interface.
On the HI 6500 series instrument display, select the Display menu and use the UP
or DOWN button to select the Split Screen submenu, then select the Discover menu
item then press the ENTER button.
Filter Parameter Menu
There are two parameters in the Filter menu
• NumAverages (Number of Averages)
• WAVERSAVER
NumAverages Parameter
The value you enter for NumAverages (the Number of Averages) sets the number of weight
readings used to compute a sliding average of displayed weight. This helps reduce the
effects of material impact and/or vibration if material does not enter or exit the scale evenly.
This setting helps the instrument ignore the effects of material impact and/or vibration.
Applications requiring very quick weight readings should reduce this setting to its
minimum. If the weight is unstable, increase the averages. The HI 6500 series instrument
does 110 updates per second, which translates to an update approximately every 9
milliseconds. If you average enough weight readings, the weight loss or gain remains
smooth. If you average the weight too much you can cause over filling. Also see
WAVERSAVER for information on filtering unstable weight readings.
RANGE:1-250 (default 10)
On the Web page, select the Filter menu selection and enter the value for the number of
readings to factor into the average. Our example (for illustration only) has set 10 for
Number of Averages. Yours will vary depending on your application.
