Introduction
The WeighStation is a cost-effective platform for use in a wide variety of application where live weighing
of a bag of fluid is desirable. The Weighstation has the capability of allowing the owner to interface with
an of Parker’s other laboratory and processing systems.
Please read the following instructions carefully!
Inspections: Refer to the separate unpacking document and remove the WeighStation and
accessories carefully from the shipping container. Check the contents against the purchase order
to verify that all parts are included and undamaged.
Please do the inspection now, even if the WeighStation is not used immediately. Many carriers must
receive damage claims within seven days of deliver. Please regain all packing material so the unit may
be shipped safely if necessary.

Installation & Start Up
Installation of the WeighStation must be carried out only by trained personnel in accordance with the
relevant regulations and this operations manual.
Make sure that the technical specifications and input ratings of the WeighStation platform are observed.
See “WeighStation Specifications”.
The WeighStation must be connected to a properly grounded power supply receptacle.
The WeighStation location must not block access to the power disconnect point for the power supply.
The protection provided by this equipment may be impaired if the WeighStation is used in a manner
inconsistent with this manual or for purposes not specified by the manufacturer.
Start-up of the WeighStation must be carried out only by trained personnel in accordance with the
relevant regulations and this operations manual.
Before start-up, a parameter setting procedure and/or a parameter review must be performed by
supervisory personnel.
Safety Information
Before connecting the WeighStation to mains, make sure that the mains voltage corresponds to the
voltage rating shown on the rear of the control console.
Opening the WeighStation electronics enclosure cover exposes live parts. Therefore, the cover must
not be removed. If repair is required, return the WeighStation electronic enclosure to the factory.
If opening of the WeighStation electronics enclosure is inevitable, the system must first be
disconnected from all voltage sources.
Make sure that the mains plug has been pulled out.
Repair or adjustment of an opened WeighStation electronic enclosure under voltage must be carried
out only by a skilled person who is aware of the hazard involved.
Whenever it is likely that the protection has been impaired, the WeighStation must be made inoperative
and secured against any unintended operation. The protection is likely to be impaired if, for example:
The WeighStation shows visible damage
The WeighStation fails to perform as intended
The WeighStation has been in prolonged storage above 70ºC
The WeighStation has undergone severe transport stresses
Before re-commissioning the WeighStation, a professional routine test according to the WeighStation
IQ/OQ protocols must be performed.

Terminal Set Up
When purchased, the terminal will be fully configured, calibrated and tested by Parker. The calibration,
as with all scales after they have been shipped, will need to be updated by the customer’s meteorology
department or other certified scale service firm.
The following is provided to return the system to Parker configuration should the settings change due to
preventative maintenance, repair or other cause.

The IND131/331 terminal automatically detects the presence of a PROFIBUS option card if one
is installed, and adds the Profibus setup parameters to the PLC options
block. To configure the
terminal for PROFIBUS, enter Setup and advance to the
Communications/PLC/PROFIBUS sub-
block (See below).
.
In this section, figures given in brackets (e.g. [0] ) correspond to the parameter options
available when F-codes are displayed by the terminal.

12
PROFIBUS Setup Sub-Block
The PLC Setup block lets you specify how the PROFIBUS interface is used. Several options are
available to correspond with your system setup.
PROFIBUS Setup – F4.4.1
Provides access to the node address for the terminal. Note that the network baud rate is
automatically determined by the terminal.
Node Address – F4.4.1.5
Each IND131 or IND331 Terminal connected to the network represents one physical node.
This address is determined by the system designer, then configured in the
terminal by entering
the appropriate number (
1 to 125 ) in the Node Address menu.
Data Format Setup – F4.4.2
Provides access to the Format and Byte Order parameters.
Format–F4.4.2.1
The Format menu allows a data format to be selected from a list. Options are Division 
[0] , FloatingPoint[1] and Integer[2] (the default).
Division – displays scale weight in display divisions. The PLC multiplies the display
divisions by the increment size to calculate the weight in display
units.
Floating Point – displays weight in floating point data format
Integer – display
Byte Order – F4.4.2.2
This parameter selects the order in which the data bytes and words will be presented in the
PLC data format. The choices are
ByteSwap[0]  (the default), Standard[1] ,  WordSwap[2] , and
DoubleWordSwap[3] .
 Word Swap – Takes the IEE 754 single-precision floating point format and swaps the
two words in the 32-bit double word. This format is
compatible with RSLogix 5000
processors.
 Byte Swap – Makes the floating-point format compatible with S7 PROFIBUS.
 Double Word Swap – Makes the data format compatible Modicon Quantum
PLC for Modbus TCP networks.
 Standard – Makes the data format compatible with PLC5.

13
Calibration of Analog Output (4-20 mA)
The best time to calibrate the 4-20 mA output if that cable is being used, is immediately following
the previous procedure.
Procedure:
While still in Communication - PLC - Analog Output, proceed to Calibrate Output and connect a 4-20
mA calibration meter to read the values.
Pressing the PRINT key at the Calibrate Output menu initiates a calibration routine that allows
correlation of the zero and full scale analog output points of the terminal to what the connected device
is expecting. The procedure follows these steps:
1. First, a message is shown - WARNING! Analog Output will change” - indicating that the analog
output will be controlled by the terminal for calibration purposes and will not represent the weight
as normal
2. After accepting this message by pressing PRINT, a second message appears - Signal now 4 mA.
Adjust then ENTER
3. Use the TARE key to increase the analog signal or the CLEAR key to decrease the analog output
signal to fine tune the output for the 4 mA (zero) reference. Press ENTER when done.
4. The message WARNING! Analog Output will change is shown again indicating that the analog
output will change and is not related to the source value.
5. The next message is Signal now 20 mA. Adjust then ENTER. Press the PRINT key to continue.
6. Use the TARE key to increase the analog signal or the CLEAR key to decrease the analog output
signal to fine tune the output for the 20 mA (full-scale) reference. Press PRINT when done.
7. Press the ZERO key several times to exit to normal operations.

14
Calibration of the Scale
Procedure:
1. Press PRINT for three seconds to enter the configuration menu.
2. Scroll to Calibrate and press PRINT
a. At Set Zero, press PRINT
i. Confirm that the scale is empty and press PRINT
ii. Zero Capture is performed by the system
iii. At Zero Capture OK, press PRINT
b. Scroll down to Set Span and press PRINT
i. Use the up/down/move left keys to input the load value (this does not have
to be the max value but must be a minimum of 1000 divisions)
ii. For the WeighStation use 20.0 kg or 20,000 g
iii. Hang the load, get it stable and press PRINT. (At this time the 20 kg load is a 5 gal
container of water with a loop for hanging attached. Check its weight on a master
calibrated scale and adjust to as close to 20,000 g as possible.)
iv. Capture span calibration is performed by the system
v. At “Capture Span OK” press PRINT
vi. Press the ZERO key twice to return to normal operations
c. The calibration can now be checked using standard masses and repeated if necessary.
FAQ
Q: What is “Error 11” and how do I clear it?
A: Error 11 indicates that the requested command has failed. To clear the error, press the PRINT
button. This occurs when TARE is attempted with a gross negative value or when ZERO is attempted
outside the configured range.
