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-8000HD.

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-8000HD

.

The Net ID and RF Channel must exactly match the MSI-8000HD. 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-8000HD 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-
8000HD
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.
