Loadcell With LOAdCELL displayed, press the key to see a
live display of the current counts coming from the loadcell.
400400 is the example shown in Figure 5. Press the UNITS
key to toggle between the counts display mode and the mV/V
display, which appears in this format: 2.00200. This stands for
2.002 mV/V. The decimal indicates you are looking at mV/V and
not current counts.
Serial This item accesses the internal port serial tests. With SEriAL
displayed, press the key. Port 1 is displayed. This is
always the internal serial port. When the optional serial boards
are installed in the same stack, port two is always on the bottom.
When installed in different stacks (side by side), port two is
always closest to the power supply. Press the or
key to select the port you wish to test.
Ready/
Busy With the port you want to test displayed, press the
key. rEAdy or bUSy is displayed telling you if the hardware
input line is ready or busy. This is useful in tracking down serial
output problems.
Loop/
No Loop Press the key to see the Loop - No Loop test.
Connect the transmit line to the receive line at some point in
the cabling. The WI-127 checks if it receives the same characters
that it transmits. If it can, LOOP is displayed. If it cannot, no
LOOP is displayed. This is useful in isolating serial output
problems to the WI-127, cable, or connected device by looping
back at the corresponding points.
Outputs This test allows you to check the operation of the onboard and
optional outputs. The onboard outputs are copies of the first
three outputs on the optional I/O board when it is installed.
Sequence This is the first item in the Outputs submenu. Press the
key to test the outputs. Each output is turned on and
off sequentially. The display will show Out. nn. The nn being the
number of the output being tested. The outputs will sequence
every half second. Press the or key to
end the test and return to the SEqUEnCE display.
Out 1-3 or
(Out 1-8)
(Out 9-16) This is the second item in the Outputs submenu. This allows you
to enable or disable any of the outputs 1-3 (1-16 if the optional
boards are installed). Press the key to see the
display of the outputs status.
The screen has 0s and 1s displayed in this format: 00.010000. In
this example, output #4 is active. The zeros and ones represent
the status of each output. A 1means it is activated and a 0
means it is deactivated. The left digit is output #1 or #9.
To change the status of an output, press the or
key to move the decimal point to the right of the
output you want to change. Press the key to toggle
the output from one status to the other.
Press the key to exit the test. The outputs remain
as selected until you exit the Test menu. Returning to the
normal weigh mode returns the control of the outputs to the
cutoff values.
To exit back to normal weighing
mode, press the SELECT key and
save changes as needed by pressing
ENTER with SAVE? displayed.
With motors connected to external
circuits, this is a good way to test
your hardware.

Inputs This test allows you to check the operation of the onboard and
optional inputs. Press the key to access the submenu.
Standard This submenu item lets you check the status of the onboard
inputs. In this example, 1000100, inputs #1 and #5 are active.
The inputs are ordered 1-8 from left to right. A 1means
activated and a 0means deactivated.
As you view the inputs, #8 is actually a flag that is dependent on
the states of inputs 6 and 7. Input 6 resets flag #8 to a false 0.
Input 7 sets flag #8 to a true 1. Input 8 does not terminate at a
connector.
Option This menu item is available only if the option board is installed. It
works the same way as the Standard example above.
Voltages The submenu under VoltAgES lets you see the power supply
voltages. The voltage readings are updated 2 times per second.
13 volts This test displays the unregulated weight sensor excitation
power supply voltage. If the voltage drops below 10.5 the display
will show Lo. Volt. The error condition will not clear until
voltage reaches 11.5.
- 5 volts This test displays the -5 volt excitation voltage.
10 volts This test displays the unregulated 5 volt logic supply voltage.
24 volts This test display shows the relay supply voltage. If this voltage
drops too far it may not be possible to activate certain relays.
Nominal level for this power supply voltage is 22.8.
Setup is the next top level menu item. See Figure 6.
Figure 6
Setup menu
The two top level menu items under Setup are 110 and 127.
110 This selection allows access to the menus necessary to make the
WI-127 behave as a clone of the WI-110 indicator.
127 This selection allows all setup menus to be accessed.

ENTER with SAVE? displayed.
Press the ZERO key to delete a
displayed calibration point.
Be sure the correct capacity and
division sizes have been selected
before calibrating.

10
Points See the section Calibrating the WI-127 for indepth instructions.
In this submenu you may view, edit, insert or delete calibration
points in a list. The WI-127 allows calibration using up to five
calibration points.
The WI-127 comes from the factory with two calibration points:
0 and 5000 lbs. (These weight values may differ depending on
your unit of measure.)
These points may be calibrated in two ways: 1) by standard
weight calibration or 2) by entering count values. Counts are
calibrated to a 1 mV/V signal from the factory.
A 0 When you access the Points submenu the first item is A 0. This
stands for Apply 0 weight. This is the zero calibration point.
A 5000 The next calibration point in the default list is the calibration
point for full capacity. Your indicator is factory calibrated to
5000 lbs (1 mV/V). You may keep this value or key in a new
value for full capacity.
Deadload Lets you view the count value for the current deadload. Press
the UNITS key to change the display to mV/V.
Display Shows the weight display without having to exit the menus. An
example of what is shown—d 5000. The dindicates a live display
of weight and reminds you that the unit is in calibration. The
value you see depends on the selected unit of measure, the
calibration and the weight applied. The UNITS key works in this
mode.
Reset Use this item to reset the calibration points to factory default
values. If you choose yES the values are set to 0 lbs at 0 mV/V
and 5000 lbs at 1 mV/V.
To exit back to normal weighing
mode, press the SELECT key and
save changes as needed by pressing
ENTER with SAVE? displayed.
Reset is very helpful if you get
confused and would like to put
working values back in the WI-127
calibration menu.

The next item in the 110 menu structure is Scale. In this group of submenus you
set scale related parameters. Figure 9 shows the Scale menu.
Figure 9
110 Scale menu
110 Scale Menu
Units This submenu lets you select what unit of measure will be
assigned to the three annunciators on the front panel.
Unit 1 The unit of measure you choose for this item will be assigned to
the annunciator labeled “lb” on the front panel. You can choose
from the following list of units of measure:
Pounds = pounds
1000g = kilograms
g = grams
Oz = ounces
Tons = tons
Tonnes = tonnes (metric tons)
None = no unit of measure is assigned.
Unit 2 The unit of measure you choose for this item will be assigned to
the annunciator labeled “kg” on the front panel. You can choose
a unit of measure from the same list as above.
Unit 3 The unit of measure you choose for this item will be assigned to
the annunciator labeled “oz” on the front panel. You can choose
a unit of measure from the same list as above.

12
Capacity The next scale menu item is capacity. Use this item to view or
edit the capacity of the unit in any unit of measure configured
under Units. With CAPACity displayed, press the
key. The current capacity is displayed. Use the numeric keypad
to key in a new value and press to accept it and
return to the CAPACity display.
You can view the capacity in other units of measure by pressing
the UNITS key.
Division This selection allows you to view and edit the division size of the
enabled units of measure. You can enter any division size. The
indicator will use the closest division size for each enabled unit of
measure (1, 2 or 5 divisions).
You can view the division in other units of measure by pressing
the UNITS key. The number is stored in the resolution you
enter but is displayed in the closest valid division size.
Zero Use this menu item to set pushbutton zero related options.
Zero range is specified as a percent of capacity referenced from
the deadload. There are two items in the submenu: -Range and
Range.
-Range Use this to set the negative range (below reference zero) within
which the unit may be zeroed. 100% is the default value.
Range Use this to set the positive range (above reference zero) within
which the unit may be zeroed. 100% is the default value.
Stable Use this menu item to set the motion detection parameters.
There are two items in the submenu: Range and Display.
Range Specifies the number of ±divisions for the motion window. Use
the numeric keypad to enter appropriate value. Most common
settings are 0.5, 1, or 3 divisions.
Display Choose ON to if you want the display on while the indicator
senses scale motion. Choose OFF to blank the display while
there is scale motion.
A.Z.T. This stands for Automatic Zero Tracking. Range is the only item
in this submenu.
Range Use this item to set the range within which the indicator will
automatically adjust the zero balance towards zero. Use the
numeric keypad to enter appropriate value. Most common
settings are 0.5, 1, or 3 divisions.
Update Use this to set the display update rate from these choices:
1One update per second.
2Two updates per second
5Five updates per second
10 Ten updates per second.
To exit back to normal weighing
mode, press the SELECT key and
save changes as needed by pressing
ENTER with SAVE? displayed.
Don’t forget to re-calibrate your
system after you change capacity.
If you change capacity or division
size in any unit of measure, this
automatically changes all the other
enabled units of measure as well.
If you want leading zeroes in your
printouts or broadcast and autosend
information, key in leading zeroes
when setting division size.

13
Average The next menu item is Average. This can be entered in one of
two methods: x disp. or x a-ds. Press the UNITS key to switch
back and forth between the two choices.
The suggested method of setting the average is by picking a value
for x disp. Doing this insures that a multiple of the display rate is
always being averaged. This results in a steadier weight display.
Use x a-ds if you need an exact number of A-D conversions for
your particular situation.
x disp. 1 disp. is the default display when you access this item. xis the
number of display interval(s) over which the data is internally
averaged prior to being displayed. The number of A-Ds averaged
is based on the display update rate you set under the Update
menu item. Default is 1 disp.
x a-ds x is the number of a-d conversions to average for each display.
The A-D weight conversion happens 60 times per second in this
indicator. Average is the number of conversions you want to
average for the weight that is displayed. Default is 12 a-ds when
Update is at default of 5 and x disp. is at default value of 1.
Filter Use this menu item to configure the Harmonizer®filter settings.
Constant and Threshld are the two items you can configure in
this submenu.
Constant This number represents the amount of filtering. Choose a setting
between 1 and 10. Choose 1 for the least amount of filtering but
the fastest response. Choose 10 for the most filtering but the
slowest response. Choose Off to disable the Harmonizer
functions and default to the lowest filtering.
Threshld This is the window, in the current unit of measure, within which
weight changes are altered according to the constant. 10.0 is the
default value shown in Figure 9. You should set the threshold
value between 130 and 150% of the weight swings that need to
be suppressed.
Changing the update rate changes
the x disp. or x a-ds value based on
the new update rate.
Harmonizer®filter is used only if the
average value will not filter out the
vibration by itself.
Values change with unit of measure.

14
Tips on setting up and using the Harmonizer®filtering
To find the best settings for your filter needs, follow the steps listed below.
1. What to Do: Determine the amount of positive and negative force
exerted by the vibration on the scale.
How to Do It: Set Threshld to 0.0, Constant to OFF, and Average to
1.0 A-Ds. Return to weigh mode and observe the weight swings. Record
the difference between the highest and lowest displayed weight values.
Add 30 to 50% to this value. This is a good starting value for the
Threshld setting. Do not set your indicator to this value until told to in
step 7.
2. Setting the Average to higher values increases the filtering effect.
What to Do: Set Threshld to 0.0, Constant to OFF and Average to
15.0 A-Ds. Check the stability of the scale.
How to Do It: Save changes and exit to normal weight mode. Observe
the Center of Zero light. If it is on all the time your scale is stable within
¼ division. If the Center of Zero light blinks more filtering is required.
Go to step 3.
3. Repeat step 2 but increase the Average by 15.0 A-Ds. Keep repeating
steps 2 and 3 until the scale is stable or you’ve tried the entire range of
Average (300 A-Ds). If the scale is still not stable go to step 4.
4. Setting the Constant to higher values increases the filtering effect.
What to Do: Set Threshld to 0.0, Constant to 1.0 and Average to 300
A-Ds. Check the stability of the scale.
How to Do It: Save changes and exit to normal weight mode. Observe
the Center of Zero light. If it is on all the time your scale is stable within
¼ division. If the Center of Zero light blinks more filtering is required.
Go to step 5.
5. Repeat step 4 but increase the Constant by 1.0. Keep repeating steps 4
and 5 until the scale is stable or you’ve tried the entire range of Con-
stant (10). If the scale is still not stable, decrease your display update rate
and start over at step 1 using the new, slower display rate.
6. After the Constant value is established you may wish to lower the
Average value to improve display response time.
7. After a final value for Constant and Average has been set, enter the
Threshld value established in step 1. If this value is too small your scale
will act as if the filtering is off or not working. Increase the Threshld
value until your scale stabilizes.
If the Threshld value is too high your scale will react slowly to weight
changes.
When Harmonizer is properly adjusted the scale will be stable at zero
and will rapidly display a stable test weight value.
