3. Introduction and Block DiagramsThe W&M approved type FW-01 Scale Interface is the key component to integrate a Weighing System into yourPC. FlintWeigh does not require any separate weight display and the scale interface assures, that the weightdata will be reliably processed in the PC.It is possible to connect up to 2 scales (up to 16x type RC3D digital load cells respective 2x type LDU digitalamplifiers) via RS485 to the scale interface, which will be connected to the PC via USB interface.When the scales are based on standard load cells you can select among several LDU types which may beplugged into socket within the KAL-4 junction box. The selection of the applied LDU will be defined by therequirements for the weighing application. The technical characteristics of the LDU types and connectiondetails about digital and standard load cells you can find in chapter 4.3.1. Application RangeFor protecting the consumers all scales which are used for commercial transactions (legal for tradeapplications) have to be calibrated in a standardized way. Typical legal for trade scales are retail scales inshops. Privately used bathroom scales or kitchen scales are examples for scales which don’t require anapproved calibration.Legal for trade applicationsThe weighing terminal has an EC type approval which covers standard load cells and scales of the accuracyclass and .All load cells have to keep the tolerances according "OIML R60, Metrological regulation for load cells, Edition2000".For selecting the proper weighing module in legal for trade applications, it is required to verify the compatibilityof modules for the weighing instrument (see file KOMPMODENG.XLS on the Flintec CD-ROM).For further information about software, alibi memory and legal for trade applications see chapter 4.Industrial applicationsAll scale connections in industrial applications fall within the responsibility of the scale operator. In suchapplications an approved alibi memory is not available.3.2.

4.7. Descriptive PlateThe descriptive plate has to be placed on the weighing terminal’s enclosure. It must coincide with the digitaldescriptive plate within the nWeigh software.The descriptive plate supplies following information:► Owner and number of the EC type approval► Version no. of the software incl. revision no./ check sum► Serial no. of the built-in weighing system controller► Type and serial no of the LDUs► Year of manufacture► Traceable access counter (TAC)► Metrological symbol “M”► Interval, min.load and max. load of the scaleFig. 4.7: Descriptive plate of the weighing terminalHint: You can find a template for the scale’s descriptive plate in RTF format on the Flintec CD-ROM.FlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 11 of 32

5. nWeigh Software InstallationThe nWeigh software displays the continuously measured weight value of the weighing system controller withina graphical window in a legal for trade quality.nWeigh also provides an OLE interface. External programmes can access the data and information withinnWeigh by using OLE functions. All windows and control buttons are part of the OLE interface.By configuring two digital outputs and one digital input it is possible to implement a simple limit monitoring ortraffic light control.5.1. Software VersionThe software version is defined as follows:NWxyF.exe with x = Main version no.and y = Revision no.e.g.: NW11F.exe Main version no. 1, Rev. no. 15.2. InstallationIt is not required to install the nWeigh software in the conventional way. Just copy from the Flintec-CD to adirectory of your choice on a target PC of your choice:► The directory “USB Driver 2008“ (Windows 7 / Vista) respective “USB Driver 2006“ (Windows XP);these driver files are required to install the scale interface via USB connection► the files "NW11F.exe" and " nxWeigh.dll"Fig. 5.1 : Software source directory on the Flintec CDFig. 5.2 : Software target directory on the installation PCHint: Your profile as a Windows user requires writing preferences for this installation directory. In this directoryfurther configuration files will be created (see chapter 5.3).Then you connect the scale interface to an USB port of the installation PC. Hereby the installation PCautomatically detects the scale interface and the operating system will search for a suitable device driver, whichyou can find in the directory “USB Driver 2008“ (Windows 7 / Vista) resp. “USB Driver 2006“ (Windows XP).After the successful driver installation the Windows device manager should list the FlintWeigh scale interface inthe section “Connections (COM & LPT)“ listen. Please note the assigned COM port no. for further use duringthe commissioning.When started for the first time nWeigh should start with the language setting "English" (see chapter 8.2).FlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 12 of 32

5.3. nWeigh FilesIn the nWeigh software directory you can find the following files (some files may be hidden or protected andtherefore not visible):NW11F.EXENW10.KEYNW10.ININW10.LIMNW10xx.CFGnWeigh main programme; can be used directly (EXE file) as weight display or for serviceand calibration purposes. In weighing mode the main programme can communicate toapplication programmes via its integrated OLE interface. If the OLE interface is in use thenWeigh software automatically starts in the weighing mode.This file will be created during the commissioning. It contains non-approved parameters andsettings like COM port, baud rate, remote display, language, filter settings, zero tracking,etc.This file will be created during the commissioning. It contains the path information to thestorage location of the alibi data.This file will be created during the commissioning. It contains the manual settings of thedigital outputs (setpoints).This file will be created during the commissioning. For diagnosis purposes it contains copiesof the calibration data, which are stored in the approved memory of the weighing systemcontroller.Following files may be located in the nWeigh software directory or somewhere else (see data memoryServer):NW10.CNTRecord counter (for multi scale systems), protected by CRC16 checksumNWmmjj.MEMAlibi memory files, divided by month (mm = month, yy = year), protected by CRC16checksumFlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 13 of 32

Scale with Type RC3D Digital Load CellsImportant: 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 weightdisplay (Fig. 7.1).7.4.1. Preliminary NoteThe next figure shows the basic principles of addressing the load cells in a weighbridge / vehicle scale. Theshown numbering simplifies the corner correction (chapter 8.4.3).EntranceEinfahrt1 (A)3 (C)5 (E)7 (G)9 (I)Ausfahrt Exit2 (B)4 (D)6 (F)8 (H)10 (J)Fig. 8.8 Addressing load cells in a weighbridge / vehicle scale7.4.2.

The serial numbers willbe read and displayed automatically.If one or more address fields should have a red background, then the communication tothis/these load cell(s) is not OK. The corresponding load cells have to be checked(address, protocoll, load etc.)FlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 19 of 32

Scale type:SettingSingle-intervalMulti-rangeMulti-intervalCommentThe scale has exactly one weighing range with a constantscale intervalThe scale has 2 or 3 weighing ranges with different scaleintervals. If the current gros value of the measured weight fallswithin the next weighing range and larger scale interval(changeover threshold 1 and 2), then the larger scale intervalremains active until the scale will be unloaded and will return tothe zero point.The scale has 2 or 3 weighing ranges with different scaleintervals. The current gros value of the measured weightdetermines the active weighing range and the active scaleinterval at any time.Scale interval 1/2/3: Step size of the display resolution for the scale respective the weighing rangeDecimals:Unit:No-motion range /period:Number of digits after the decimal pointWeight unit for the displayed weight: g, kg, t or lbCondition for a stable scale (no. of scale intervals, no. of measured values);Default: 2d and 10 values in legal for trade applications; in industrial applications thesecriteria may be modifiedMax. capacity: Maximum load of the scale (as a multiple of the scale interval e1)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)Changeoverthreshold 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 “nWeigh Settings” afterwards.Now the weight display (Fig. 7.1) should show a random value.The next step is the digital corner correction (see chapter 8.4.3).7.4.3. Digital Corner CorrectionImportant: After the digital corner correction the scale always requires a new calibration.Fig.8.11 RC3D Load cellsEach corner (load cell) will be loaded one after the other with acalibration weight (the calibration weight should be at least 10%of max. capacity; better is 30% of max.capacity).Using the slider the display value of the loaded load cell will becorrected until the displayed value equals the calibrationweight.The corner correction doesn’t depend on the sequence of theloaded load cell, but a systematic course may spare time andminimises the risk for errors (see chapter 8.4.1).Hint: It may be meaningful to perform a calibration of the scaleand save the calibration data before the corner correction. Thisoptimises the display characteristics already before the cornercorrection.The next step is always the calibration of the scale (see chapter 8.5)FlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 20 of 32

7.5. Calibrate the ScaleImportant: Before you can calibrate the scale you have to define the basic setup (see chapter 8.1) and thescale parameters (see chapter 8.3 respective 8.4). If you have to configure a multi scale system, then select thewished scale no. ("1" or "2") within the weight display (Fig. 7.1).1. Open the window “nWweigh Settings“2. Open the register “Calibration”3. Unload the scale4. Click the button “Dead load“; this defines thecurrent load status of the scale as the zeropoint. The weight display should show now thevalue “0”.5. The calibration weight will be put on the centreof the scale. The true applied weight (at least10% of max. capacity) has to be entered intothe field “Test weight” (here 2500e = 5 kg).6. Click the button “Gain“; now the correct gainfor the selected scale will be calculated. Theweight display should show now the value ofthe calibration weight.7. For saving the calibration data click the button“Save calibration data”. Now a warningappears which describes the consequences inlegal for trade applications. (“Attention! Aftersaving the claibration data, the internalcalibration counter (TAC) is still countedforward. Afterwards the scale has to be reapprovedby the Calibration Authority!”)8. For confirming the saving click the button“Save”. If you want to keep an existingapproval click the button “Cancel”.9. After the calibration the window “nWeighSettings” has to be closed. This will save allsetup changes.10. The weight display will now show the weight ofthe calibration weight, if the calibration weightstill loads the scale.Hint: After the calibration you have to close the window „nWeigh Settings“ by clicking the button “X“ (upper rightwindow corner). In multi scale applications you may select and calibrate the second scale now.FlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 21 of 32

7.6. Optional Linearisation of the Scale CurveThe standard scale calibration may be supplemented by a linearisation with up to 5 correction points. Herebythe correction points have to be in a stricly increasing order, which is:Min. capacity < Point 1 < Point 2 < Point 3< Point 4 < Point 5 < Max. capacity of the scaleImportant: Before any linearisation you have to define the basic setup (see chapter 8.1), the scale parameters(see chapter 8.3 respective 8.4) and you have to calibrate the scale (see chapter 8.5). If you have to configurea multi scale system, then select the wished scale no. ("1" or "2") within the weight display (Fig. 7.1).1. Open the window “nWweigh Settings“2. Open the register “Linearisation“3. Correction point 1: A calibration weight will beput on the centre of the scale. The true appliedweight as a multiple of the scale interval e hasto be entered. Then you use the slider to correctthe display value until it equals the calibrationweight4. Define correction point 2, if applicable (this isdone like correction point 1 but uses a higherweight)5. Define further correction points, if applicable6. 7. For saving the calibration data click thebutton “Save calibration data”. Now a warningappears which describes the consequences inlegal for trade applications. (“Attention! Aftersaving the claibration data, the internalcalibration counter (TAC) is still countedforward. Afterwards the scale has to be reapprovedby the Calibration Authority!”)7. For confirming the saving click the button“Save”..Hint: After the linearisation you have to close the window „nWeigh Settings“ by clicking the button “X“ (upperright window corner). In multi scale applications you may select and correct the second scale now.FlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 22 of 32

7.7. Optional Use of Digital OutputsAfter opening the service functions (window "nWeigh Settings") and selecting the register “Parameters“, youcan assign a functionality to the digital outputs:Fig.8.11 Register “Parameters“for defining the digital outputsStep 1: Select the source to control the outputAllowed settings are Scale 1, Scale 2 andCombination.Step 2: Assign a functionality to the outputAllowed settings are:Setting Function“Off“ Without“Limit“ Limit monitoring (see chapter 8.7.1)“Traffic light“ Traffic light control (see chapter8.7.2)7.7.1. Setpoints and Limit MonitoringFig.8.12 Example for the limit monitoring1. Select the scale as the source2. Select the function “Limit“3. Define the weight value as a multiple of intervale; if the output shall follow the “Net value”, thenactivate the associated check box4. The output will be switched, if the “weight value< Limit“. If the output shall show an inverselogic, then activate the associated check box“Exceeded”5. By activating the check box “Input” you may usethe digital input as an additional switchingcriteria for the limit monitoring: the setpointoutput will only be activated, if the digital input isactive, tooFlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 23 of 32

7.7.2. Traffic Light ControlThe implementation of a traffic light control requires following setup:1. Define the function “Limit“ for digital output 12. Define the function “Traffic Light” for digital output 23. The setpoint values for both outputs have to be defined to the same value in such a way, that thesystem can reliably detect an “Empty scale”A functional setup switches the outputs as follows (vehicle scale example):Action/StatusOutput 1Output 2Entrance Exit(“Empty”)(Weighing finalised)Empty scale A1 = 1 Green Red A2 = 0Vehicle is on the scale A1 = 0 Red Red A2 = 0Weight recorded A1 = 0 Red Green A2 = 1Empty scale A1 = 1 Green Red A2 = 0FlintWeigh Technical Manual, Rev. 3.02 January 2011 Page 24 of 32
