Unattended Auto Axle Weigh Short Scale (Mode 3)
The Auto Axle Weigh and Print mode is used for unattended, short scale, vehical axle
weighing applications. This mode uses the following resources:
TTL output 1 = RED light output
TTL output 2 = GREEN light output
TTL output 3 = Busy light output
Fixed Register CFG 43 = Trip weight register (500 lb default)
Timer 1 - CFG 74 tr 1 = Delay time before red light is turned on (L40 = 4 secs default)
Timer 2 – CFG 74 tr 2 = Delay time before green light is turned on (L40 = 4 secs default)
Timer 3 – CFG 74 tr 3 = Delay timeout before total is printed (L300 = 30 secs default)
Timer 4 – CFG 74 tr4 = Display total duration timer (L100 = 10 secs default)
PRINT key - Prints total (over-rides the auto total print timer 3)
Auto axle weighing begins with the green light on. A weight greater than the trip weight CFG 43
enters the scale. Timer 1 is activated. Timer 1 times out and the green light is turned off and the
red & busy light is turned on. When motion detect signals no motion, the weight on the scale is
printed, the green light is turned on, red light off, and timer 2 is activated. The axle weigh
program waits for the weight on the scale to change by the trip weight amount. If the scale
weight settles above the trip weight amount, the weight indicator totalizes and prints. Timer 3
times out when no trip weight activation occurs in the auto-total timeout time; the weight
indicator prints the total of the previous weighments and zeros the totals register. The PRINT
key can be used to print totals before timer 3 times out. The total is displayed for 10 seconds then
the program returns to the live scale weight.
Page formats:
Page 1 is printed when a valid weight has entered the scale for the first time as a header print
item. Header Page prints CFG 84 data as header, a company name for instance.
Page 2 prints each axle weight. Page 3 prints the total.
