2.7 Glossary
Technical terms or with a meaning other than the common are used in the manuals.
The used terms and abbreviations are explained below:
Term Denition
Up-down
function that allows an automatic device to be activated in order to mechanically isolate the scale plate - product
system when this is in the weighing position for the time that weighing lasts (static), thus enabling it to weigh
products that are longer than the scale belt.
Autoreset
the scale’s automatic periodical resetting system. It can only be enabled during an automatic weighing phase.
The scale is automatically reset at established intervals, and only when the plate is unloaded, guaranteeing that
it will not be loaded automatically with a weight during the resetting procedure. The autozero managing logic is
described in the domain rules.
Resetting process with which the weight indication is returned to zero, annulling the load bearing on the cell, within the
preset limits.
Barcode data structure formed by xed and variable elds of the process able to be printed on the label. Each barcode must
therefore be able to indicate the data of the process in relation to which it is created
BcRead
indicates the format of a barcode that the system can read during the process (by means of a scanner) in order to
automatically modify a sub-group of data pertaining to the current process.
Each bcread must be described by the sequence of elds it contains and unambiguously identied within the
sequence of characters of the barcode itself.
Scale
component that processes the data from the load cell and that provides weighing functions (obtainment of a
gross weight value and calculation of the relative entities derived).
It also memorises a group of information representing the calibration data and which is the result of the calibration
processes.
Braid
component that processes the data from the load cell and that provides weighing functions (obtainment of a
gross weight value and calculation of the relative entities derived).
It also memorises a group of information representing the calibration data and which is the result of the calibration
processes.
Sampling (1) (also
calibration)
process with which a bond is established between the intensity of the signal leaving the load cell and the weight
bearing on it.
Sampling can be:
• linear: the bond between the signal and weight is considered to be linear and thus described by means of
the equation of a straight line;
• non-linear: the bond between the signal and weight is considered to be describable by means of a second-
degree equation.
Sampling (2) group of information that describes the bond obtained during calibration.
Zero sampling process by which the load bearing on the cell is annulled the moment in which it is activated, thus modifying the
sampling data.
Center Zero denes a weight range around the zero mark between ± 1/4 of a division.
Connector plug or socket for connecting the terminal to the external equipment.

CHAPTER 2 - Preliminary information
Term Denition
Counters
they are global consecutives associated with the equipment.
Some express information which, although global, are modied during the process and therefore need to be
handled according to the pipeline logic of the process itself (namely, information that must be historicised so that
it can be recovered according to the instant in which it was produced).
Some pertain to the actual system and cannot be reset during the life of the machine. Others, as they pertain to
parts that are liable to be replaced, must include a resetting mechanism.
Default value provided by the data memory in the absence of an entry via the keyboard. The data entered by the
manufacturer are retrieved as default values.
Key-in press the command that needs to be activated or the character to be retrieved on the display, using the keyboard.
Display lit screen on which the numeric data and symbols transmitted by the system appear, so that they can be
immediately consulted.
Division appreciable minimum weight variation.
Zero division this is the division (1/2 before and 1/2 after) spanning the scale resetting value.
Multiple divisions automatic system for changing the division depending on the weighed load. It works when the scale is either
loading or unloading.
Multiple extensions automatic system for changing the weighing range in systems with several ranges and dierent maximum
capacities. Once the scale has been loaded, return to zero occurs within the last range switched.
Label
group of graphic elements that express the forms and data of the process in a printable form.
The following elements can be included in a label:
• xed texts
• variable texts
• barcodes
• images
• lines
• rectangles
The sequence in which the elements are transmitted to the printer is signicant, since, in the case of overlapping,
each element overwrites the previously transmitted one which partially or totally occupies the same area.
Labelling
process whereby the label is applied to the product and totalising of the same within the process is performed.
If the product label (or printer) is not present, the process will deal with totalising alone. If the piece is not to be
totalized (namely rejected), the process is annulled.
Full scale this is the maximum weighing capacity of the instrument, which does not necessarily coincide with the max.
structural capacity of the weighing platform.
Host Remote system that connects to the Weighing-pricing system in order to handle and program it.
Image graphic element that must be able to be stored in the system so that it can be displayed and printed.
Interface group of circuits and channels that connect the terminal with the external devices to which it is linked.
IP xx
protection degree for casings and enclosures containing electrical or electronic components. The IP rating
indicates the protection class of electronic equipment against solid matters (the rst number) and liquid (the
second number).
Process (1) status of the system in which, if appropriately stimulated (cell loading, photocell obscuring, command from the
interface), it is able to process the individual products.

group of information that characterises the process of a specic PLU. It consists of the group of data of the PLU in
question with the addition of the following elements:
• the weighing-pricing data of the last product weighed;
• the consecutives linked to the totals.
Traceability lot
group of information that identies and describes a production lot (typically refers to the livestock market) used
to obtain dierent products to process.
The information that identies and describes the traceability lot can be congured as described in the relative
section of the Supplementary Specications.
Mask graphic representation of data, characters or symbols on the display, according to the modes established by the
manufacturer.
Multi-division see “Multiple divisions”.
Multi-extension see “Multiple extensions”.
Operator person who uses the system.This is therefore the person who must have read this manual and who is fully familiar
with the operating controls.
Option the equipment that is not part of the standard supply.
Minimum weighing
operation
corresponds to the interval between 0 (zero) and a pre-established number of divisions. A high relative error can
occur in this zone.
Weighing Process by which the weight bearing on the load cell during the actual process is measured.
Automatic weighing Automatic weight measuring process that does not require the intervention of an operator
Dynamic weighing Automatic weighing process in which weight measurement occurs without stopping the product on the scale
plate.
Manual weighing
Weight measuring process that requires the intervention of an operator. It can activate in automatic mode as soon
as the operator loads a product on the scale plate or in manual mode, when the operator starts up the process
itself.
Static weighing Automatic weighing process in which the product handling system that regulates the way the product is loaded
onto the scale, stops the piece on the scale plate so that the weight can be measured.
Weighing
platform part of the set-up on which the goods are placed for weighing.
PIN pin, rheophore or pole to which the cable connects.
PLC freely programmable electronic component containing the program that controls the machine on which it is
installed.
PLU
acronym of PRICE LOOK UP, or search (identication) unit of the product. It collects all the specic information
about every product that can be processed, or supplies the group of data required to guide the transport, handling,
weighing, labelling and totalising process.
Additional information expressing the PLUs relation with other elements in the system can be associated with
each PLU.
Pole see PIN.

CHAPTER 2 - Preliminary information
Term Denition
Maximum capacity maximum weighing capacity
Transmission
protocol data encoding and sorting system in a transmission towards an external device.
Stopping position by
a belt
a position (target) must be identied on each belt on a level with which the products stop in order to be subjected
to the process pertaining to that particular belt (stopping while waiting for events, enabling, conrmation from
the user, weighing, labelling).
Weighing range weighing range between the minimum weight and maximum capacity.
Load receiver part of the instrument where the load is positioned for weighing.
Scanner barcode reader
Serialisation data transmission, character by character.
Slot position or housing for the board in the terminal.
Stopped status machine condition in which all the belts are at a standstill or being stopped, and in which they stop as soon as the
pieces in the machine reach the stopped position on the individual belts.
Belt consent status
a belt "is enabled" if the next belt (or the next machine relative to the last belt in the line) is able to accept pieces.
This means that if a belt has not been enabled, a piece in transit on it must stop at the relative stopping
position, or that it cannot start again until its processing status in that position has been completed.
Processing status condition in which the line is to be found that allows the conveying system to accept pieces, move them, weigh
them, label and totalize them. The opposite situation is called "o process”.
Running status machine condition in which the pieces must be able to be moved continuously, in compliance with the
downstream enabling conditions.
Store
reservoir of information, which can contain:
• the code of a process;
• information that guides the process of the specied code (if present) in relation to weighing, handling,
characteristics associated with the process.
String sequence of alphanumerical characters exchanged during a serial transmission between the terminal and external
equipment.
Weighing
instrument measuring instrument that determines the "weight" entity of a body.
Preset tare
Tare value associated with a product (PLU), the origin of which is a known value that is entered in the system. It is
used for calculating the net weight at the time the weight data of a PLU being processed are calculated. Since the
scale that measures the gross weight can have a dierent capacity and division each time, the value of the tare
associated with the PLU must not be rounded-o in any way.
Percentage tare (also
weight drop)
Percentage value that expresses an additional tare element equal to the actual percentage value of the net weight,
which is consequently decreased to a further extent by the tare value thus obtained.
Printhead (single
head, double head)
The printhead consists of a printer and an applicator that can be the air-jet, arm or piston type. An Automatic
weighing-pricing system can have one or two printheads (double head). If there are two heads, they are either
positioned in line or above and below.
Fixed text text element led in the system and unambiguously identied by a numeric code. Each text must belong to a
category (ingredients, products, label texts)

Variable text
(or Variable eld)
data item of each process which can be included in labels, barcodes, reports.
The variable texts include:
• elds of the actual process;
• information bound to the traceability lot currently set in the system;
• general totals.
General total totalising element that sums the values created by processing the individual pieces across the actual process itself.
Data transmission exchange of information between two or more devices via electric cables.
Zero tracking
automatic zero tracking system. It can only be enabled during a manual weighing phase and corrects the zero
value progressively when the weight value recorded in the cell has been subjected to a smaller variation than
a settable value (generically 0.5 g) within a preset period of time (generically 0.5 s). The correction is made by
resetting the scale again. It is used in a practical way in applications where progressive accumulations of liquid or
dirt tend to shift the scale from its zero position.
