SETUP MODE
Setup mode is used to change the setup of the Model 9840. To enter setup mode press
the two end buttons at the same time ( “<“ and “>“ ). The row of four buttons will now
function as indicated by the lower set of labels (Plus, Minus, Enter, and Escape).
If the optional keylock is in the locked position you will see “>Setup is Locked” when you
try to enter setup mode. This prevents accidental or unauthorized changes to the setup of
the unit.
To exit from setup mode and return to run mode press the escape button (Esc). When
you are entering numerical data or selecting options from a sub-menu the escape button
will back you out without making any changes.
The main menu in setup mode contains the following 6 entries which will be described in
detail in the following sections. Note that all main menu items begin with the “>“ symbol
and that all submenu items begin with the “>>“ symbol.
• > User Data Entry -- allows you to set any common math options such as the base
area used to display load in PSI or the base length used to display position in percent.
• > Analog Output -- is used to select the source and scaling for the standard analog
output channel.
• > Sensor Select -- lets you manually set which load or torque cell calibration data is
used. If you use auto-id cells you will never need this menu.
• > Calibration -- provides access to calibration for cells or optical encoders.
• > Limits -- allows you to set the source and options for the 4 contact closure switches.
• > System Options -- contains entries to set the printer baud rate, enable or disable
automatic sensor identification, enable or disable automatic load or torque zeroing, set
the serial communications address, baud rate, line feed, and RS232 options, and
choose whether or not to retain the most recent tare value through power down.
• > Display Options -- lets you choose the filtering that is applied to the load or torque
measurements, an optional window of data incrementation on which to turn the filter
off, the number of decimal digits that are shown on the display and on the print, the
count by values for channels A and B (1, 2, 5, 10, or 20), and whether the second line
of the display shows the limit switch status, a blank line, another display, or text.
The Plus or Right button ( “+” or “>“ ) will scroll forward through this menu. The Minus or
Left button ( “-” or “<“ ) will scroll backward through this menu. The Enter button selects
the currently displayed menu item. The Esc button will return you to Run Mode.
