Chapter 8. MVS-<strong>STX</strong> Service Menu<br />

K-M Service Code<br />

The K-M Service Code is required to change<br />

some parameters within the Service Menu<br />

unless you entered the K-M Mfg Code. The<br />

Service Code is:<br />

9010<br />

You can view parameters in the Service Menu<br />

without entering the Service Code, but will be<br />

prompted to enter the Code if you try to<br />

change certain parameters. Once the Service<br />

Code is entered, you have access to all<br />

functions that require the Code, while you<br />

remain within the Manual Mode. You only<br />

need to enter the Code once per Manual<br />

Mode session, regardless of the number of<br />

functions <strong>and</strong> channels you access.<br />

<strong>STX</strong><br />

This menu is used to:<br />

• display material weight <strong>and</strong> A/D counts<br />

• download calibration information to a new<br />

<strong>STX</strong> PCB or microprocessor PCB<br />

• enable or disable monitoring for a channel<br />

• adjust excitation<br />

• reset the <strong>STX</strong> PCB to default parameters<br />

• adjust resolution, gain, <strong>and</strong> active digits<br />

• set (or reset) channel default parameters<br />

• select analog or digital mode<br />

• set up <strong>and</strong> enable filtering <strong>and</strong> tracking<br />

parameters to reduce the effects of<br />

‘noise’ <strong>and</strong> drift<br />

Descriptions of the submenus follow.<br />

Disp (display)<br />

This function displays material weight, ‘raw’<br />

<strong>and</strong> ‘corrected’ A/D counts, <strong>and</strong> stability.<br />

‘Corrected’ counts are calculated after all<br />

corrections, such as averaging <strong>and</strong> linearization,<br />

are applied. ‘Raw’ counts are the counts<br />

before any corrections are applied.<br />

The first page of the display looks like this:<br />

01: 1043962 Cts<br />

Ad12:<br />

1250 lbs<br />

F1 F2 F3<br />

• 01 is the factory-set channel ID<br />

• 1043962 Cts is the ‘corrected’ counts<br />

• 12 is the <strong>STX</strong> PCB’s hexadecimal<br />

address — first rack (‘1’), second<br />

position in rack (‘2’)<br />

• 1250 lbs is the current material weight<br />

8-2<br />

Display the remaining pages by pressing the<br />

F3 Key. The second page looks like this:<br />

01: 1043962 Cts<br />

F1 F2 F3<br />

• 20Bit is the effective resolution<br />

• d=5 is the change in counts. K-M may be<br />

interested in this number if the channel<br />

monitoring display jumps or drifts excessively.<br />

When d exceeds 255, the number<br />

is replaced by ***. d is zeroed by pressing<br />

the Enter Key while viewing this display.<br />

The third page looks like this:<br />

01: 1043962 Cts<br />

F1 F2 F3<br />

• 1043962 Cts is the ‘corrected’ counts<br />

• 1043990 RAW is the ‘raw’ counts<br />

The fourth <strong>and</strong> fifth pages show the digital<br />

offset DOF <strong>and</strong> analog offset AOF. These are<br />

correction offset values used for material<br />

tracking (refer to Trk in this chapter).<br />

Press the Arrow Keys to cycle through all<br />

other <strong>STX</strong> channels.<br />

Rtor (restore)<br />

Ad12: 20Bit d=5<br />

Ad12<br />

This function downloads calibration information<br />

to a new <strong>STX</strong> or microprocessor PCB,<br />

eliminating the need to reenter parameters<br />

individually. Rtor has two submenus:<br />

• Micro — copy calibration from the <strong>STX</strong><br />

PCB to the microprocessor PCB<br />

• <strong>STX</strong> — copy calibration parameters from<br />

the microprocessor PCB to the <strong>STX</strong> PCB<br />

Enab (enable)<br />

1043990 RAW<br />

This function enables or disables the channel.<br />

Enab differs from Hide (see Chapter 5, MVS-<br />

<strong>STX</strong> Display Menu) in that disabling a channel<br />

with Enab actually causes the MVS to stop<br />

monitoring the channel. The display shows:<br />

Ves#01:Adr12:Ch-<br />

>ON Next Back<br />

F1 F2 F3<br />

• 01 is the factory-set channel ID for the<br />

first channel in the system<br />

• 12 is the signal processor PCB’s<br />

hexadecimal address — first rack (‘1’),<br />

second position in rack (‘2’)<br />

Press the F1 Key to enable (ON) <strong>and</strong> disable<br />

(OFF) the channel. Press the F2 (Next) <strong>and</strong><br />

F3 (Back) Keys to cycle through all other<br />

channels in the MVS.
