4. Device installation
The device should be mounted on a flat surface, with the wires facing down. Only the correct installation of the
device ensures its proper operation and the maintenance of the device parameters, such as housing tightness to
the declared IP class.
NOTICE!
Before any installation or maintenance operations, refer to the manual supplied by the manufacturer. Improper
connection to the mains power supply, incautious device installation, or improper use may cause property
damage, loss of health or death from an electric shock! In addition, failure to comply with the manufacturer's
instructions may void the warranty.
NOTICE!
It is forbidden to make any additional mounting points or any holes in the device components.
4.1 RM-470TL application
RM-470TL is designed to display measurement results transmitted by weighing terminals. The displays operate in
the automatic mode by default (see 4.2 "Autolearn") and, in typical cases, they do not require prior configuration.
In special situations, it may be necessary to adjust the settings using KAZEL WagSet software (from version v3.00)
or the Web browser or through the user menu embedded in the device.
4.2 "Autolearn" function
The "Autolearn" mode is enabled by default (position #0 is set in the "proto" submenu). To disable it, the
communication protocol should be selected manually using the embedded user menu or KAZEL WagSet software
or the Web browser. When this mode is active, at each start-up, the device detects the parameters of
communication with the weighing terminal and analyses the structure of the data frames which are sent to it. It
then adjusts its settings to allow proper communication with the terminal. The whole operation lasts a few
seconds, depending on the baud rate and time intervals between the consecutive frames. All communication
interfaces are supported, i.e. RS-232, RS-485/RS-422, 0/20mA digital current loop and the Ethernet.
The "Autolearn" procedure steps and their signaling are as follows:
1. Baud rate detection - dot 1 is flashing on the display.
2. Baud rate verification - dot 1 is solid, dot 2 is flashing.
3. Analysis of the protocol and its frame structure - dots 1 and 2 are solid, dot 3 is flashing.
During the analysis of the protocol and its frame structure, the measurement unit is also recognized, if sent by
indicator. The following tags are recognized - "kg", "k", "K", "tn", "TN", "T", "t", "LB", "lb", "L", "l", "OZ", "oz", "o",
"O". In case the indicator does not send units or sends units that are not recognized by the "Autolearn" function,
the default unit will be set. Depending on the purchased regional version, it is "kg" or "lb".

DTR_314-06-01-001_EN_a 5
The "Autolearn"function also detects gross/net measurements if the following markers are sent in the frame:
- for the Net measurement: "N"from the ASCII table,
- for the Gross measurement: "G"from the ASCII table.
In this case, the marker position will also be saved. If, during the operation of the device, the transmitted
measurement marker changes, e.g. from "N" to "G", the indicator will change accordingly.
The "Autolearn" function supports the following transmission parameters:
Baud rate:
2400, 4800, 9600, 19200
Transmission parameters (data bits, parity, stop bits):
8N1, 7E1, 7O1

4.3.1 Communication protocol selection
4.3.1.1 Embedded user menu (micro button)
The user menu embedded in the device allows to select the communication protocol, display the information
about the software version, reset to the default settings. The "B1" micro button, used to operate the menu, is
located inside the display, and is accessible after unscrewing two screws M4x10 (Fig. 3, det. A) and after pulling
out the drawer as indicated by the black arrow. The micro button is located on the controller board as illustrated
below (Fig. 3, det. B). There is no need to open the external covers.
det. A –M4x10 Screw; det. B –micro button.
Fig. 3
The user menu is called up by pressing and holding down the "B1" microswitch and releasing it
when the desired option is displayed. Regardless the option, you can exit the user menu by pressing the micro
button and releasing it when switching between the options (while switching between the options, the display is
not displaying any information).

6 DTR_314-06-01-001_EN_a
The user menu has the following options:
1) info - This option allows you to display the software version. For displays with the Ethernet interface, network
layer settings are also provided (IP address, network mask, communication port for KAZEL WagSet software
and communication port for the weighing indicator). Exiting the "info" submenu happens automatically after
displaying the information.
2) proto - This option enables the selection of the communication protocol saved in the display memory, which
enables cooperation with the selected weighing indicator. The protocol is changed by pressing the micro
button. Saving the selected protocol is accomplished by long holding down the microbutton (until the
message "Saved" appears). Exiting the "proto" submenu comes after 30 seconds of the user inactivity.
3) custm –The "custm" option allows you to select the dedicated communication protocol to work with the
weighing indicators of selected clients. The protocols have special custom settings required by the given
client. Setting the protocol is done in the same way as in the case of the "proto" option - saving the selected
protocol is accomplished by long holding down the micro button (until the message "Saved" appears), while
exiting the "custm" submenu comes automatically after 30 seconds of the user inactivity.
4) lights - the "lights" option allows you to choose the configuration of the traffic lights. Three profiles are
available:
•1 –lights: if there is no communication for more than 0.5 second, the red light will show,
•2 –lights: if there is no communication for more than 3 seconds, the "X" characters will be
displayed on both red and green light,
•3 –lights: if there is no communication, the status of the traffic light will not change.
Switching between the individual profiles is done by pressing the "B1" micro button. Saving the selected
profile is accomplished by long holding down the "B1" micro button, until the message "Saved" appears.
Exiting the "lights" option comes after 30 seconds of the user inactivity.
5) reset - This option allows you to reset the default remote display protocol and to activate the "Autolearn"
mode. In addition, in the devices with the Ethernet interface, you can restore the default network layer
settings (IP address: 192.168.0.11, network mask: 255.255.255.0, communication port for KAZEL WagSet
software: 2101 and communication port for the weighing terminal: 2102). To restore the default settings you
should, during the normal operation of the device, press the micro button and hold it down until the message
"reset" appears. Hold the button down until the message "reset" starts blinking and do not release it until
the message "default" is displayed. Releasing the button before the message "default" appears will result in
interrupting the process of restoring the default settings and the display will continue working according to
the previously programmed parameters. Defining new network settings is possible through the embedded
Web-panel or by using KAZEL WagSet software.

Using KAZEL WagSet software, you can perform advanced configuration of the device. The software enables:
- precise defining of the communication protocol with any weighing terminal,
- precise setup of traffic lights, including arrows,
- determining the response of the display to the events reported by the weighing terminal (e.g. overload,
underload, instability, etc.),
- entering and editing advertising text.
The detailed information concerning the configuration via your computer can be found in the manual supplied
with KAZEL WagSet software.
