5.2 RF Set Up, Dyna-Link And MSI Crane Scales
Setting up the MSI-7300 Dyna-Link and other 802.15.4 linked MSI Crane Scales is the
same procedure except for the two button entry method.
MSI-7300 Dyna-Link 2 - Press F1
and
F2
simultaneously.
MSI-3460 Challenger 3 - Press TARE
and
USER
simultaneously.
The 3460 does not have a Print Function. Printing is only available on the linked 
MSI-8000.
MSI-4260 Port-A-Weigh - Press TARE
and
USER
simultaneously.
Note
The 4260 does not have a Print Function when the Radio Link is installed.
Printing is only available on the linked
MSI-8000 .
The Net ID and RF Channel must exactly match the MSI-8000. The ScaleCoreID (SCID)
must be unique. The first Scale/Dyna-Link must have a SCID of 0. In multiple link
systems, setup sequential SCIDS starting at 0.
5.3 MSI8000 With Multiple Sensors
The MSI-8000 can monitor up to four load sensors (MSI-7300 Dyna-Links are shown, but
MSI-3460s and MSI-4260s can also be used). The sensors are readable individually, in
pairs or summed.

Setting up a multiple sensor network requires the following:
1. Each sensor has a unique SCID. The IDs must be consecutive, starting with 0. This is
set in the sensor setup, not in the 8000. See the appropriate User Guide.
2. Using the “Configure Network Menu” [arrow] “Total Number of RDs,” set the
number of remote sensor devices (RD). This number does not include the MSI-8000
or any modems. So the range is 2-4.
3. Setup the desired summing mode using the “Total RDs” menu.
4. Program F1 to the “Scan” function, and F2 to the “ttl.rd” function if summed sensor
readings are needed.
Monitoring of more than 4 sensors is possible with modified software. Contact MSI for
information.
