DIALOGUE
INIT
(Installation of Default Parameters)
It downloads default calibration data for checking purposes.
The weight display will act as a mV/V meter of the Loadcell output.
Press
P to activate the initialization procedure.
Press O to exit the init mode.
Be aware that the default parameters and calibration constants will remain in memory.
If a subsequent StorE operation is performed previous calibration data will be lost.
The default parameters are as follows :
Par 2.P = 4
8.1-8.8= 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0
3.P = 1
0.P=00
4.P
=
40
5.P = 2
GAIN = 1
6.P = 2
LCNR = NOT CHANGED
7.P = 2
DEADLOAD=0 mV/V~0,0000
SPAN 2
mV/V
~ 2,0000 on weight display
SET UP 2 / 2.b = 96 , 2.d = 17 , 2.A = 65
SETPOINT 1 = 0,0200
SETPOINT 2 = 4,0000
5.2 CUSTOM PRINT FORMATS
These are data strings for transmission to a printer. The formats are edited by the user (any ASCII
editor) and downloaded to the unit via the serial port RS232. When a print operation takes place
the FDT will insert the scale variables in selected positions in the string specified with [!123],
where 123 is the decimal code of the variable. E.g. scale variable 40 (Net) should be inserted as
[!040].
Non printable characters may be inserted in the string specified as [@123], where 123 is
the decimal equivalent of the character code. E.g Esc E (1Bh, 45h)is inserted as [@027]E.
This may be repeated as many times are required in the string.
The following scale variables are implemented in the FDT.

Two formats may be downloaded, 1 & 2 , 512bytes each. Format is transmitted in Gross mode,
while format2 is transmitted in Net mode. For the user defined formats to operate SETUP2/2.t=20.
The formats are downloaded to FDT using the Fn 41 , Fn 42 procedures (see chapter 6)
or command F (see chapter 8.2)
A test printout should be performed to validate the format.
