Chapter 3. Menu Tree,
Keyboard Functions,
and Quick Start
Introduction
This chapter describes the Weigh II’s Main
Menu, contains a diagram of the menu tree
structure, and describes all of the keyboard
functions. Additionally, this chapter provides a
list of the steps you need to take to get a
“Quick Start” on using the Weigh II.
Menu Tree
The menu tree of the Weigh II is used to enter
and view settings, set up, calibrate, and
troubleshoot for the system. There are four
submenus listed in the Main Menu:
• Disp — to enter and view display settings
• I/O — to enter and view setpoint param-
eters, current output parameters, serial
port configurations, printer functions, and
PLC interface parameters
• Cal — to calibrate the system
• Service — to troubleshoot the system;
adjust gain, resolution, and excitation; set
up filtering and tracking functions to reduce
the effect of “noise” and drift; reset param-
eters to default values; calibrate 0/4-20 mA
output; and set up a user access code
The menu tree in Figure 3-1 shows the Main
Menu in Menu Level 1 and the submenus in
Menu Levels 2 – 5. The menu tree is a quick
reference guide to help you find the functions
you want to perform. For example, if you want
to change setpoint parameters, the menu tree
shows you that setpoints are set up in the
I/O Menu. Level 2 shows the submenus that
are displayed when I/O is selected. Level 3
shows the submenus that are displayed when
a selection is made from Level 2, etc.
Chapters 4, 5, 6, and 7 provide detailed
information on the function and use of the
Disp, I/O, Cal, and Service submenus,
respectively.
Note
Some of the submenus are not shown
in the menu tree in Figure 3-1 due to
space constraints. For example, if you
select Disp in Level 1 and ScanT in
Level 2, a menu will come up with
several values to select from for the
ScanT function. For more detail on
submenus, see the appropriate
chapter in this manual.
