7. Trip if source < / > Set -- Choosing source>set means that the limit will be activated
when the source becomes larger than the set point. Choosing source<set means the
limit will be activated when the source becomes less than the set point.
8. Latching on/off -- Selecting latching off means that the limit will be de-activated
automatically when the source passes the reset point (see next selection). Selecting
latching on means that once the limit is activated you must manually reset it using the
Reset button. If you select latching on then the limit setup is done.
9. Rst -- This selection determines the numerical value of the source at which the limit
will be deactivated (reset point). If you selected “source>set” in step 7 then the limit is
deactivated when the source is less than the reset point. If you selected “source<set”
in step 7 then the limit is deactivated when the source is greater than the reset point.
Notes:
The Set and Reset conditions for each limit are evaluated independently. If both
conditions are met then Reset will take priority over Set.
Limit status may show an asterisk if the limit is enabled but there is an error in the signal
source. For example, if the limit source is load but there are no load cells currently
calibrated, or the load cell has a rating of 0.0 Lb, or a millivolt per volt constant of zero.
Another example would be if the limit source is position and zero has been entered for the
encoder counts-per-inch constant. Limits that are in this error condition will be forced to
the off position as if they were disabled.
>System Options
This menu contains some system wide parameters that are seldom changed. These are
listed in a submenu that works exactly like the setup mode main menu.
>>Printer Baud
The front panel print button and the RS232 print commands will use this baud rate for
communication with your printer. This setting has no effect on units that are not
equipped with the printing option. 57.6 K baud is commonly used on older serial
printers (Epson Stylus II), 230.4 K baud is used on more recent serial printers (Epson
Stylus Color 600, Color 800).
>>Auto Identify
This allows you to turn automatic cell identification on or off. Usually you can leave
auto-id on even if you never use automatic cell identification. In order to use this
function you must either have an auto-id equipped cell or use an in-line auto-id module
attached to your cell cable.
>>Auto Zero Ch A/B
This menu lets you enable or disable auto zeroing for measurements on Channel A or
B. When enabled, this function will tare the load or torque to zero any time that it has
remained within 10 counts of zero on the display for 10 seconds.
