next container. Set accordingly.

IDS 410/422 User's Manual

Unattended Auto Axle Weigh Short Scale (Mode 3)

The Auto Axle Weigh and Print mode is used for unattended, short scale, vehical axle

weighing applications. This mode uses the following resources:

TTL output 1 = RED light output

TTL output 2 = GREEN light output

TTL output 3 = Busy light output

Fixed Register CFG 43 = Trip weight register (500 lb default)

Timer 1 - CFG 74 tr 1 = Delay time before red light is turned on (L40 = 4 secs default)

Timer 2 – CFG 74 tr 2 = Delay time before green light is turned on (L40 = 4 secs default)

Timer 3 –

CFG 74 tr 3 = Delay timeout before total is printed (L300 = 30 secs default)

Timer 4 – CFG 74 tr4 = Display total duration timer (L100 = 10 secs default)

PRINT key - Prints total (over-rides the auto total print timer 3)

Auto axle weighing begins with the green light on. A weight greater than the trip weight CFG 43

enters the scale. Timer 1 is activated. Timer 1 times out and the green light is turned off and the

red & busy light is turned on. When motion detect signals no motion, the weight on the scale is

printed, the green light is turned on, red light off, and timer 2 is activated. The axle weigh

program waits for the weight on the scale to change by the trip weight amount. If the scale

weight settles above the trip weight amount, the weight indicator totalizes and prints. Timer 3

times out when no trip weight activation occurs in the auto-total timeout time; the weight

indicator prints the total of the previous weighments and zeros the totals register. The PRINT
