Chapter 1 Hardware Overview The Weigh Scale m odule can be attached to the controller or to an adjacent I/O module before or after din rail mounting. It is a Class 1 module (uses eight input words and eight output words). It interfaces to strain gage based transdu cers (350ohm or 700ohm). The module can accept input from two sensors. The module has[...]

Chapter 2 Getting Started This chapter can help you to get started using the Helm Weigh Scale module. The procedures i ncluded here assume that you have a basic understanding of PLC products. You shoul d understand electronic process control and be able to interpret the ladde r logic instructions required to generate the electro nic sign als that c[...]

Chapter 2 System Operation The Weigh Scale module communicates to the processor through the p arallel backplane interface and receives +5Vdc and +24V dc power from the power supply through the backplane. No exte rnal power su pply is required. The MicroLogix and CompactL ogix platforms can support up to 8 I/O modules. You may install up to 3 Weig h[...]

Chapter 3 Channel Configuration Data and Status This chapter explains how the Weig h Scale module and the proces sor communicate through the module's input and output image. For CompactLogix / RSLogix ™ 5000 setup, plea se refer to Appen dix A With RS Logix500 software, ve rify the module ID code. Expansion General Configuration Weigh Scale [...]

Chapter 3 Output Image (cont.) Zero Stabilize Bit (O:e/3) Enables module feature to display “0” when Weigh scale is empty. 0 = Disable 1 = Enable Least Significant Bit (LSD) Flicke r Bi t (O:e/4) LSD of weigh value. Does not change when load is applied or if load is constant. Vibration Filter Bit (O:e/5) Enables vibration filter to cancel out l[...]

Chapter 3 The 8-word module input image (input from the module to the CPU) represents data words and status words. I nput words (data words) hold t he input data that represents the values of the sensor inputs. Data Table Input Image Inp ut words (status bits) contain the various status conditi ons a nd reflect the c onfiguration settings y ou have[...]
