E1205advanced multi-function indicator

Description

GeneralThis specification describes theE1205 advanced multi-functionweight indicator, capable ofstand-alone operation, or ofintegration into a larger systemvia serial, FieldBus and Ethernetinterfaces.

It is a microprocessor-basedindustrial weighing system with upto 100,000 displayed incrementsfor analysing, displaying, storingand transmitting gross and netweight information.

Up to 12 load cells to beconnected with the indicator(16 with second scale).Analogue load cells or AveryWeigh-Tronix digital load cellsmay be used.

This indicator can display weightdata from two scalessimultaneously. Both scales areactive and are independentlyweighing at all times.

The E1205 can be matched toalmost any load cell system toachieve optimum accuracy,stability and repeatability.

The indicator can control itssurrounding process using fullyconfigurable I/O.Alternatively, control can beexecuted from a central systemusing an extensive range ofavailable interfaces.

Configurable FeaturesThe E1205 features a dualpurpose alpha-numeric keyboardwhich allows any of the followingfunctions to be configured duringcommissioning:

Sensitivity to weight signal

Scale capacity

Number of divisions andincrement size

Weighing Unit

Zero/back balance

Decimal marker type - point orcomma

Position of decimal marker

Calibration site gravity factor

Customer site gravity factor

Filtering using FIR orHarmonizer™ filtering systems

Ten points for linearitycorrection to ensure maximumaccuracy

Avery Weigh-Tronix Technical SpecificationE1205

All these characteristics arestored in non-volatile memory sothat once the ideal parameters forany given weighing system areestablished they can be retainedwith certainty for the future.

Once the scale is set up asrequired, a calibration report canbe printed showing weighingdetails (useful for the installationengineer). This allows the state ofthe system to be monitored.

Up to 300 product look ups(PLUs) are available for instantrecall of previously programmedproduct information.

Filter

FIR & Dynamic FilteringSeven programmable Options

Dynamic FilterApplied after the FIR filter.Set the filter window size indivisions (0 - 99). A high valuewill have a large damping effecton the weight display.This significantly slows the scaleresponse to a legitimate changein weight.

Harmonizer™ Digital FilterThree programmable parameters:

Samples to Average - setsnumber of A-D conversions whichwill be averaged to give a weightreading.

IIR Filter - sets how muchdamping the Harmonizer™applies to the weight reading.Typically between 1 (low) - 8(higher).

Threshold Level - sets theminimum weight change (incalibration units) which theHarmonizer™ will not attempt tofilter out as noise.

Trips

The indicator has three internaltrips as standard, and can supportup to 16 external trips via externalTrips Interface Units(see accessories).All trips (both internal andexternal) are rated at 240 V 10 A.Internal inputs are rated at TTLlevels.

Two modes have independentcontrol of the trip outputs, Alarmand Recipe. Alarm modeoperates continuously.Recipe mode is dependant on theRecipe / Filling application beingconfigured and in operation.

Alarm ModeAlarm mode has 10 independentconfigurable indexes, and cannotbe turned off. Each index can beprogrammed to operate any or alloutputs based on a given target:

None - index inactive Target Weight Status of indicator, e.g. weight

steady, checkweigh accept Input (single or specific

pattern) Output (single or specific

pattern) Time

Recipe /Filling ModeRecipe/Filling mode has 20configurable sequential steps,and is active only in Recipe/Filling mode. Each recipe(maximum 100) can beconfigured independently to theothers. Each index can beprogrammed to operate any or alloutputs based on a given target:

None – index inactive Target Weight (includes

tolerance, compensation anddosing parameters)

Time

Other variables that can beconfigured in Recipe / Fillingmode are:

Outputs at start of step Outputs at end of step Target action (e.g. print) PLU to accumulate totals data

All configuration information isretained when power is off.
