Some of the functional characteristics are also defined by the product data. For example, the zones that are used to evaluate the weight of the product are defined here. When Adding a product, the user is prompted to enter the product ID, product description, product tare weight, indicators units to use when weighing, and the 5 zone ranges as either a percentage or weight value. After adding a product, use the Calibrate Product menu item to setup the weighing delay durations. The user can edit the description, tare weight, units, and zone ranges. You can also delete any product from the system. Doing so also deletes the product statistics for that product. You can search for a product by its ID. 1.4.1 Adding a Product The 920i screen should appear as in Figure 1-3. 4UBSU 1. 4UBUJTUJDT 4FMFDU 1SPEVDU 4$"-& .PSF 4$"-& )$ $ESCRIPTION 4ARE7EIGHT 5NITS 4/ 4/ 4ARGET 45 45 )PNF $BODFM &OE Figure 1-4.

Tare Weight System tare value while using the product in a run Units Units of measure TO2 Weights above this value will be considered to be in the highest range. Setting this value to zero disables the checking for this range. TO1 Weights above this value and below TO2 will be considered to be in the high range. If the highest range value is set to zero, all weights above this value are in the high range. Setting this value to zero disables the checking for this range. Target Target weight from scale - must be specified if the system tolerance type is either offset or percent. TU1 Weights below this value and above TU2 will be considered in the high range. If the lowest range value is zero, all weights below this value and above the minimum acceptable weight are in the low range. Setting this value to zero disables the checking for this range. TU2 Weights below this value and above the minimum acceptable weight are in the lowest range. Setting this value to zero disables the checking for this range. Adjust Percent Adjusts the weight of every item by a set percentage. For example, if the checkweigher is consistently reading 10% low, adjust percent can be set to 10% to compensate. 4FUVQ Figure 1-3. 920i screen. 1. Press Setup. 2. Press Products. 3. Press Add.

Softkey Description Conveyor Setup Allows the user to enter the conveyor start and stop inputs, used for remote button operation of the conveyor (when used manually, i.e., without checkweighing) and set up the start and stop outputs used to control the conveyor. changes to these settings will probably require changes to the 920i configuration file to setup the digital I/O points. Product Detection Allows the user to define the product detection input. Reject Setup Defines the digital I/O relays and timing for rejecting products that are under or over weight. Here, the user sets up the output for the reject mechanism, the delay before activating the reject arm, and the time period to hold the reject arm active. The delay and reject periods are entered in milliseconds. Changing the reject output will probably require changes to the 920i configuration file. More=> Accesses Setup Menu 4: Maintenance Continued.

Softkey Description Tolerance Setup Allows the user to define the output relays that are used to indicate the 5 zone ranges for each product check weighed. Also, the out of tolerance alarm output, out of tolerance alarm duration, and zone type (by weight or by percent of target) are set here. NOTE: When editing the zone type, press Enter to keep the current value. Overrun Setup Allows the user to set up an output to be used for the overrun alarm, as well as the alarm duration (in milliseconds). Setting the alarm duration to 0 will disable this feature. If an overrun is detected, the overrun alarm will signal the error, but the system will attempt to continue weighing. Infeed Setup Allows the user to slow down the infeed conveyor (the part of the conveyor before the scale section) by having it turn on and off for specified times. This feature can be used for spacing products as they approach the scale section of the conveyor. If products are too close together, set the “on time” and “off time” (in milliseconds) to have the infeed conveyor turn itself on and off for the specified amount of time. For example, one product will enter the scale, the infeed conveyor will stop briefly while the scale section continues to run, then the infeed conveyor will resume and the next product enters the scale, etc. Set the “on time” and “off time” values to 0 (which is its default) to disable this feature if there is enough space between products for the infeed conveyor to run constantly.

These parameters include sample delay and sample time. By pressing Start , the conveyor will begin and the photo-eye will detect a product. At the end of 5 seconds, the system will alert the user to the time at which the detection input was cleared. A graph will be displayed showing the timing of the product weight across the 5 seconds. The user can then set the delay before sampling time and sample duration by viewing the graph weight and product detection details.

See Figure 3-6 on page 11 for an example of an optimal distribution curve. 10 920i In-Motion Checkweighing System Manual 3.2 Making Adjustments for an Optimal Graph Ideally, the distribution curve should be symmetrical. You should be able to see an arc as the item enters the belt and an arc as it leaves.Figure 3-4 and Figure 3-5 on page 10 show an arc as the product enters the belt, but not the full arc as the product leaves. While this will still work, it leaves little room for unexpected variables; since weighment is being measured until the product is almost off the belt, it is more likely that an inaccurate weighment could be made. Having the weight taken at the center of the distribution curve is preferred. See Figure 3-6 for an example of an optimal distribution curve.

To achieve an optimal graph, fine-tuning of the delay before sample and/or sample time may be necessary. Once one of these values is set, the graph will refresh with the latest auto calibration shown under the new parameters. Do not perform another auto calibration or it will reset any fine-tuning back to zero. Simply use the latest auto calibration and fine-tune, repeatedly if needed, until the graph is displayed as desired. Calibration 11 4.0 Printing Reports 4.1 To access the Print Reports softkey, 1.
