Set Operation Parameters
This section describes the operation parameters of the IDS440 and how their settings
affect the operation of the weight indicator.
Access Operation Parameters and Parameter Functions
The parameters are accessed by holding the CLEAR key down and then pressing the
ENTER key. The numeric display will prompt “CFG xx” where xx is the currently
selected parameter. Enter the parameter number to be modified and then press the
ENTER key. NOTE: the UNITS key (
↓) and the PRINT key (↑) can be used to scroll
the CFG parameter number. Press the UNITS key to increment the CFG number, press
the PRINT key to decrement the CFG number.
To exit configuration and store changes, press the CLEAR key when “CFG xx” is being
displayed.
To exit configuration and NOT store changes, enter 999 when “CFG xx” is being
displayed. The display prompts “Abort”. Press the ENTER key to abort (exit without
saving changes) or press the CLEAR key if you do not want to abort.
Operation Parameters Reference Tables
The reference tables provide an overview of the operation parameters. The sections
following the reference tables describe the setup parameters in detail and the procedures
for modifying them. Use the ‘Field Settings’ column of the reference tables to document
any changes to the setup parameters.
Reference Table column headings descriptions:
•
No.: Use this number to access the parameter to be modified. For example to modify
the Digital Filter enter CFG 2.
•
Parameter Name: The name of the parameter.
•
Default: The value set at the factory. The Parameter Function “Initialize Operation
Parameters to Factory Defaults” sets the parameter to this value.
•
Max Value: The maximum value for numeric parameters, the maximum number of
characters for alphanumeric parameters.
•
Pass: The IDS440 has 4 password levels. Level 1 requires entering password-1
before accessing the parameter. Level 2 requires password-2. Level 3 requires
password-2 and the Lock Switch to be in the unlocked position. Level 4 inhibits Scale
Basic functions from being uploaded to a PC.
•
Field Setting: Record any changes to the parameters in the Field Setting column.
