Min. capacity: Minimum load of the scale (as a multiple of the scale interval e1)
Test weight: Weight of the calibration weight (as a multiple of the scale interval e1)
Changeover
threshold 1/2: Only for multi-range / multi-interval scales:
Transition points for range or interval (as a multiple of the scale interval e1)
Important: For saving all scale parameter settings you have to close the window FlintWeigh II Settings
afterwards.
Now the weight display (Fig. 7.1) should show a random value.
The next step is the calibration of the scale (see chapter 8.5).
7.4. Scale with Type RC3D Digital Load Cells
Important: The sensor type already has been set to “RC3D” (see Fig. 8.2; Register “Communication“).
If you have to configure a multi scale system, then select the wished scale no. ("1" or "2") within the weight
display (Fig. 7.1).
7.4.1. Preliminary Note
The next figure shows the basic principles of addressing the load cells in a weighbridge / vehicle scale. The
shown numbering simplifies the corner correction (chapter 8.4.3).

7.4.2. Define the Scale Parameters

for sensor type “RC3D“ and Single-interval scale Fig.8.10 RC3D Load cells
Sensor-Adresse: After activating the check box “enable” and clicking the button “RC3D“ the window
“RC3D Load Cells“ will be opened (see Fig. 8.10).
Here you select the load cells by their addresses (A, B, C, etc.). The serial numbers will
be read and displayed automatically.
If one or more address fields should have a red background, then the communication to
this/these load cell(s) is not OK. The corresponding load cells have to be checked
(address, protocoll, load etc.)
