RF NETWORK SETUP
The 9750A is a RF Modem connected device. The RF Modem requires setup to connect to one or more CellScales.
The 9750A stores information for all 64 possible networks. Each network setting can be modifi ed with the “Modem
Settings Menu”.
[1] NETWORK ADDRESS – Sets the primary network
address number. Set this number to match the Network
number of the CellScale master the 9750A must com-
municate to. Ranges from 0 to 63.
[2] CS ADDRESS – Sets the primary master CellScale ID
number. This number must match the Source Address
number of the primary master CellScale. Ranges from
5 (default) to 251. This number is usually 5.
[3] MY ADDRESS – Any 9750A unit in a given Network
must have a unique ID number. Enter up to three digits
to designate the 9750A ID number. Ranges from 5 to
251. Make sure no other devices have this same number.
Other devices that must have unique numbers are 9020
Modems, 3750CS Indicators, and 9300 and/or 6260CS
crane scales used as slave units.
[4] TRANSMIT POWER – Sets the RF power level between
10 mW (Lo), 63 mW (Med), and 250 mW (Hi). In most
applications power should be set to High. Reduced
energy can reduce the size of the coverage / interfer-
ence zone which may be desirable for multiple-network
applications. Always check for adequate range coverage
when using the Low setting. Only a minor improvement
in battery life (~10%) is achieved by using the Lo set-
ting.
[5] TIMEOUT – Sets the time in seconds (0-1800) that the
9750A will wait for data from the CellScale Master. The
display will blank out if no data is received within this
time period. MSI recommends at least a 10 second time
out period to handle small lapses in transmissions. The
system defaults to 10 seconds.
[6] ADJUST MODEM – Advanced features settings of the
Modem. See “ADJUST MODEM MENU” on the fol-
lowing page. This line also shows the fi rmware version
of the RF Modem (v2.0x).
[7] SAVE SETTINGS NOW – Commits the settings to the
Modems Memory. The Modem settings will be automati-
cally saved at power down if changed.
SCAN NETWORK – Setting the Scan Network ON places
the network in the list of addresses reached by pressing
the ADDRESS key. Setting the Scan Network OFF still
allows you to pre confi gure the network settings, but the
Network will not be in the list of available networks.
