page 72 for detailed specifications.
1.1 Operating Modes
The IQ plus 710 has three modes of operation:
Normal (weighing) mode
Normal mode is the “production” mode of the
indicator. The indicator displays gross, net, or tare
weights as required, using the secondary display
to indicate scale status and the type of weight
value displayed. Once configuration is complete
and a legal seal is affixed to the back of the
indicator, this is the only mode in which the IQ
plus 710 can operate.
Setup mode
Most of the procedures described in this manual
require the indicator to be in setup mode,
including configuration and calibration.
To enter setup mode, remove the large fillister
head screw from the enclosure backplate. Insert a
screwdriver or a similar tool into the access hole
and press the setup switch once. The indicator
display changes to show the word
CONFIG
.
Test mode
Test mode provides a number of diagnostic
functions for the IQ plus 710 indicator. Like setup
mode, test mode is entered using the setup switch.
See Section 10.8 on page 69 for more information
about entering and using test mode.

1.2 Front Panel Display
Figure 1-1 shows the IQ plus 710 front panel keys and
the key functions assigned in normal mode.
The IQ plus 710 display is divided into three areas
(see Figure 1-2):
• The primary display consists of seven large,
14-segment digits used to display weight data.
• A two-digit annunciator shows the units
associated with the displayed value: lb=pounds,
kg=kilograms, oz=ounces, T=short tons,
t=metric tons, LT=long tons, g=grams,
GN=grains. When the units configured are troy
pounds or troy ounces, the word
troy
is shown in
the secondary display area in addition to the
lb
or
oz
annunciator. The units can also be set to
NONE (no units information displayed).
The two-digit annunciator also displays whether
the indicator is in numeric entry (NE) or alpha
entry (AE) mode for some operations.
The 16-digit secondary display is used to display the
weighing mode (Gross/Brutto or Net) and status
indicators, including standstill ( ) and center of
zero ( ).
The symbols shown over the keys in Figure 1-1
(representing up, down, enter, left, right) describe the
key functions assigned in setup mode. In setup mode,
the keys are used to navigate through menus, select
digits within numeric values, and increment/

Table 2-1. J1 Pin Assignments

6IQ plus 710 Installation Manual
2.3.2 Serial Communications
To attach serial communications cables, remove
connector J4 or J12 from the board. Connector J4
provides connections for the EDP (Electronic Data
Processing) port, printer port, and 20 mA current loop
transmit signals; connector J12 provides RS-485 and
20 mA current loop receive signals. Table 2-2 shows
the pin assignments for connectors J12 and J4.
Once cables are attached, reconnect J12 or J4 to the
header on the board. Use cable ties to secure serial
cables to the inside of the enclosure.
The EDP port supports RS-232 or RS-485
communications; the printer port provides active 20
mA output and RS-232 transmission. Both ports are
configured using the SERIAL menu. See Section 3.0
on page 13 for configuration information.
2.3.3 Digital I/O
Digital inputs can be set to provide several indicator
functions, including all keypad functions. The inputs
are active (on) with low voltage (0 VDC) and can be
driven by TTL or 5V logic without additional
hardware. Use the DIG IN menu to configure the
digital inputs.
Digital outputs are typically used to drive relays that
control other equipment. Up to eight relays can be
mounted inside the flat front enclosure; up to four
relays can be mounted inside the sloped front
enclosure. Use the SETPNTS menu to configure
digital outputs.
Table 2-3 shows the pin assignments for connectors J7
and J8.
2.3.4 Analog Output
If the optional analog output module is installed,
attach the output cable to connector J1 on the analog
output board. Table 2-4 lists the analog output pin
assignments.
Use the ALGOUT menu to configure and calibrate the
analog output module when cabling is complete. See

2.5 Enclosure Reassembly
Once cabling is complete, position the backplate over
the enclosure and reinstall the backplate screws. Use
the torque pattern shown in Figure 2-2 to prevent
distorting the backplate gasket. Torque screws to 10
in-lb (1.13 N-m).
Figure 2-2. IQ plus 710 Enclosure Backplate
2.6 Board Removal
If you must remove the IQ plus 710 CPU board, use
the following procedure:
1. Disconnect power to the indicator. Loosen
cord grips and remove backplate as described
in Section 2.2 on page 4.
2. Unplug connectors J1 (load cell cable), J4 and
J12 (serial communications), J7 and J8
(digital I/O), J6 (keypad ribbon cable), and
JP4 (setup switch). If an analog output board
is installed, disconnect the analog output
cable. See Figure 2-1 on page 5 for connector
locations.
3. Remove the standoff and three nuts from the
corners of the CPU board.
4. Cut the cable tie that holds the line filter load
wires to the enclosure.
5. Lift the board off of its spacers just far enough
to access the setscrews that secure the line
filter load wires at connector P2. Use a small
screwdriver to loosen the setscrews and
disconnect power to the board.
6. Remove the CPU board from the enclosure.
To replace the CPU board, reverse the above
procedure. Be sure to reinstall cable ties to secure all
cables inside the indicator enclosure.
2.7 Battery Replacement
The 3.0V lithium battery on the power supply/display
board maintains the real-time clock and protects data
stored in the system RAM when the indicator is not
connected to AC power.
System RAM data includes time and date, print
formats, truck ID storage, and setpoint configuration.
This information is lost if the battery loses power and
the indicator is disconnected from AC power. To
prevent loss of data, do the following:
• Periodically check the battery voltage and
replace when the voltage drops. The battery
should last a minimum of one year.
• Use the Revolution configuration utility or
EDP commands (see Section 5.2 on page 44)
to store a copy of the indicator configuration
on a PC before attempting battery
replacement. If any data is lost, the indicator
configuration can be restored from the PC.

Configuration 13
3.0 Configuration
To configure the IQ plus 710 indicator, the indicator
must be placed in setup mode. The setup switch is
accessed by removing the large fillister head screw on
the enclosure backplate. Switch position is changed
by inserting a screwdriver into the access hole and
pressing the switch.
When the indicator is placed in setup mode, the word
CONFIG is shown on the display. The CONFIG menu
is the first of ten main menus used to configure the
indicator. Detailed descriptions of these menus are
given in Section 3.2. When configuration is complete,
return to the CONFIG menu and press the (ZERO)
key to exit setup mode, then replace the setup switch
access screw.
3.1 Configuration Methods
The IQ plus 710 indicator can be configured by using
the front panel keys to navigate through a series of
configuration menus or by sending commands or
configuration data to the EDP port. Configuration
using the menus is described in Section 3.1.3.
Configuration using the EDP port can be
accomplished using either the EDP command set
described in Section 5.0 or the Revolution™
configuration utility.
3.1.1 Revolution Configuration
The Revolution configuration utility provides the
preferred method for configuring the IQ plus 710
indicator. Revolution runs on a personal computer to
set configuration parameters for the indicator. When
Revolution configuration is complete, configuration
data is downloaded to the indicator.
Figure 3-1. Sample Revolution Configuration Display
Revolution supports both uploading and downloading
of indicator configuration data. This capability allows
configuration data to be retrieved from one indicator,
edited, then downloaded to another.
To use Revolution, do the following:
1. Install Revolution on an IBM-compatible
personal computer running Windows®3.11 or
Windows 95. Minimum system requirements
are 4MB of extended memory and at least
5MB of available hard disk space.
2. With both indicator and PC powered off,
connect the PC serial port to the RS-232 pins
on the indicator EDP port.
3. Power up the PC and the indicator. Use the
setup switch to place the indicator in setup
mode.
4. Start the Revolution program.
Figure 3-1 shows an example of one of the Revolution
configuration displays.
Revolution provides online help for each of its
configuration displays. Parameter descriptions
provided in this manual for front panel configuration
can also be used when configuring the indicator using
Revolution: the interface is different, but the
parameters set are the same.
3.1.2 EDP Command Configuration
The EDP command set can be used to configure the
IQ plus 710 indicator using either a personal
computer, terminal, or remote keyboard. Like
Revolution, EDP command configuration sends
commands to the indicator EDP port; unlike
Revolution, EDP commands can be sent using any
external device capable of sending ASCII characters
over a serial connection.
EDP commands duplicate the functions available
using the indicator front panel and provide some
functions not otherwise available. EDP commands can
be used to simulate pressing front panel keys, to
configure the indicator, or to dump lists of parameter
settings. See Section 5.0 on page 37 for more
information about using the EDP command set.

14 IQ plus 710 Installation Manual
3.1.3 Front Panel Configuration
The IQ plus 710 indicator can be configured using a series of menus accessed through the indicator front panel
when the indicator is in setup mode. Table 3-1 summarizes the functions of each of the main menus.

Four front panel keys are used as directional keys to navigate through the menus in setup mode (see Figure 3-2).
The UNITS ( ) and PRINT ( ) keys scroll left and right (horizontally) on the same menu level; ZERO ( ) and
GROSS/NET ( ) move up and down (vertically) to different menu levels. The TARE key ( ) serves as an Enter
key for selecting parameter values within the menus. A label over each of these keys identifies the direction
provided by the key when navigating through the setup menus.
Figure 3-3. Setup Mode Menu Navigation
To select a parameter, press or to scroll left or
right until the desired menu group appears on the
display, then press to move down to the submenu or
parameter you want. When moving through the menu
parameters, the default or previously selected value
appears first on the display.
To change a parameter value, scroll left or right to
view the values for that parameter. When the desired
value appears on the display, press to select the
value and move back up one level. To edit numerical
values, use the numeric keypad on the indicator front
panel.
3.2 Menu Structures and Parameter Descriptions
The following sections provide graphic representations of the IQ plus 710 menu structures. In the actual menu
structure, the settings you choose under each parameter are arranged horizontally. To save page space, menu
choices are shown in vertical columns. The factory default setting appears at the top of each column. Parameters
shown surrounded by a dotted-line box only appear under the special circumstances explained under each box.
Most menu diagrams are accompanied by one or more tables that describe all parameters and parameter values
associated with that menu option. Default parameter values are shown in bold type.
