ANALOG OUTPUT CONFIGURATION
The output signals will be at the lower limit (0 VDC or 4 mA) when the
indicator is at zero point. When the value reaches full scale, the output
signal will increase to the high limit (10 VDC or 20 mA). Any value between
zero and full scale will be represented as an output percentage value
proportional to the output value.
The ABS (absolute) displayed weight is displayed when material is
removed from a scale in Net mode. In this case, the displayed weight will
be negative, but the analog output signal will use its absolute value. The
output signal will increase as the absolute weight value increases.
The selection of Source and Output Type determine the analog output
when the scale is under load or over load. Refer to the table below:
Source = Displayed Weight, Output Type = 4-20 mA
Under Load
Over Load
Source = ABS - Displayed Weight, Output Type = 4-20 mA
Under Load
Over Load
Source = Gross Weight, Output Type = 4-20 mA
Under Load
When the displayed weight (gross or net) drops below zero, the
analog signal keeps decreasing. When it reaches the under load
point, or is lower than the lower limit of analog signal range, the
analog output will switch to approximately 0 mA immediately. In this
case, the output remains 0 mA, or it will output correctly.
When the displayed weight (gross or net) exceeds the over load, the
analog signal keeps increasing. When it reaches the over load point,
or is higher than the higher limit of analog signal range, the analog
output will switch to approximately 24 mA immediately. In this kind
of situation, the output remains 24 mA, or it will output correctly.
When the ABS - displayed weight increases, the analog output
signal keeps increasing towards the maximum output (20 mA).
When it reaches the under load point, the analog output switches to
approximately 0 mA immediately. In this kind of situation, the output
remains 0 mA, or it will output correctly.
It is possible only when weighing is in the gross mode; it works the
same way as the standard "Displayed Weight" setting in this case.
When the gross weight drops below zero, the analog signal keeps
decreasing. When it reaches the under load point, or is lower than
the lower limit of analog signal range, the analog output will switch
to approximately 0 mA immediately. In this case, the output
remains 0 mA, or it will output correctly.
