1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
This precision digital summing indicator can sum up to nine slave indicators from either the
R300 or R400 range. These can be connected together on a multi-drop serial RS485 bus or
RS232 ring network. The summing indicator polls each of the slave units summing all of the
weight readings and displays the resulting total weight. The setpointing, printing facilities, and
accessory modules are all driven from the total weight. The summing indicator will show an
error message (------) if any of the slave weights are negative or if there is a mix of gross and
net weights, as defined by Technical Schedule S1/0/A. If all slave units are showing net
weight, the summing indicator will show a net total. Facilities are provided to view and use
individual slave weights and sub totals of a subset of the slave weights.
The setup of the instrument is digital, with a non-volatile security store for all setup
parameters. It may be operated from either a DC power source (12VDC to 24VDC) or AC
power (optional 110 –240 VAC). There is a soft power on/off function that retains memory of
its state. Once an instrument is turned on it will automatically start up again if the external
power is interrupted.
Optical communications are fitted standard and allows for a temporary isolated
communications link to be established with a PC. Software upgrades and the use of
computerised setup can then be done using a PC. Refer to Optical Communications on page
12 for more information.
Figure 1:Weight Indicator
The instrument provides zero, tare and gross/net on the fixed function keys and supports
special functions (e.g. Toggle slave weights and blanking), via three (3) user definable
function keys and external inputs. Operator functions (clock, view, report etc) and editing
functions are provided on the alpha/numeric key pad. It is equipped with an NVRAM store to
ensure day-to-day operating settings (e.g. CLOCK) are retained when power is removed.
The RS-232 communications port is typically used for communicating with the slave
indicators. It can also be used for printer driving, connection to a remote display or PC when
an optional serial module is used for the slave communications. The transmit-only RS-485
communications port can be used for remote displays. There is a built-in clock for date-
stamping printed outputs.

3. Installation
3.1. Introduction
The following steps are required to set up the indicator.
•Inspect indicator to ensure good condition.
•Use connection diagrams to wire up slave indicator serial connections, power and auxiliary
cables as required.
•Use the drill hole template provided for hole locations.
•Connect power to indicator and press <POWER> key to turn the instrument ON.
•Refer to the Setup section page 39 for information on configuring the instrument.
•To turn instrument OFF press and hold <POWER> key for three seconds (until display
blanks).
3.2. General Warnings
•Indicator not to be subject to shock, excessive vibration, or extremes of temperature (before
or after installation).
•Inputs are protected against electrical interference, but excessive levels of electro-magnetic
radiation and RFI may affect the accuracy and stability.
•The instrument should be installed away from any sources of excessive electrical noise.
•For full EMC or for RFI immunity, termination of cable shields and correct earthing of the
instrument is essential.
3.3. Electrical Safety
•For your protection all mains electrical hardware must be rated for environmental conditions
of use.
•Pluggable equipment must be installed near an easily accessible power socket outlet.
•To avoid the possibility of electric shock or damage to the instrument, always switch off or
isolate the instrument from the power supply before maintenance is carried out.
3.4. Cleaning
•To maintain the instrument, never use harsh abrasive cleaners or solvents. Wipe the
instrument with a soft cloth slightly dampened with warm soapy water.
3.5. Panel Mount Template
The panel mount template is supplied with the instrument. It shows the location of the
rectangular cut-out and the four mounting screws.

Reference Manual Rev 1.31
Page 10 004R-623-140
3.6. Cable Connections
All cable connections are made to the rear of the instrument using pluggable screw terminals.
It is not necessary to tin the ends of the wires with solder or to add crimp ferrules to the wires,
however, these techniques are compatible with the terminals.
Figure 2: Cable Connections
3.7. DC Power (DC PWR +, DC PWR –)
The DC supply need not be regulated, provided that it is free of excessive electrical noise and
sudden transients. The instrument can be operated from a high-quality plug-pack as long as
there is sufficient capacity to drive it.
3.8. Summing Slave Serial Connection
Summing R420 Indicators using RS485
When summing using this configuration, a M4203 module is required for the master and each
slave.

Reference Manual Rev 1.40
004R-623-140 Page 11
Summing R320 Indicators using RS232 Ring Network
3.9. Load Cell Connection
As this is a summing indicator, the loadcell connection is not required and should not be
connected.
3.10. Auxiliary Connections
This section provides diagrams to illustrate the communication connections.
3.10.1. RS-232 Serial
Direct Personal Computer Link (RX, TX, GND)
Figure 3: RS-232 - Instrument to PC using COM Port (DB9)

Reference Manual Rev 1.31
Page 12 004R-623-140
Printer Connections (TX, DTR and GND)
Figure 4: RS-232 –Instrument to Printer (DB25)
Remote Display (TXD, GND)
Refer to documentation suppliedwith the Remote Displayfor connectiondetails. Connect
RX on the Remote Display with TX on the instrument and connect the RS232 GND
signals together.
3.10.2. RS-485 Serial
Remote Display (TA, TB)
RS485 is recommended for communicating over distances longer than a few metres.
Connect TA to RA and TB to RB on the remote display.
3.11. Optical Communications
A temporary infrared communications link can be established between the instrument and a
PC using an optional cable. This connection can be used to transfer setup information from a
PC or to download software upgrades.
The PC end of the cable is a standard female DB9 RS232 connector or a USB connector.
The instrument end of the cable attaches to the left side of the instrument display.
WARNING
The optical coupling head contains a strong magnet and should not be placed near
any magnetic storage media (e.g. credit cards, floppy disks, etc.)

3.12. Connecting Shields
To obtain full EMC or for RFI immunity, cable shields MUST be connected and the
earth lug on the rear of the instrument must be grounded.
Figure 6 illustratesan example of possible connections. Also shown are the connecting cables
restrained using cable ties fastened by screws into the rear of the unit.
Figure 6: Cable Shield Connection

Reference Manual Rev 1.40
004R-623-140 Page 15
3.12.1. Cable Shield Connection and Earthing
•Care should be taken when connecting shields to maximise EMC or RFI immunity and
minimise earth loops and cross-talk (interference) between instruments.
•For full EMC or for RFI immunity, termination of the cable shields to the connectors is very
important. The earth lug of the instrument must be separately connected to ground potential
via a reliable link.
•The AC power module directly connects the earth lug to the Earth Pin on the power supply.
In installations where earth is available on the power cable, instrument earthing can be done
with this connection.
•The instrument should only be connected to earth via a single reliable link to avoid earth
loops.
•Where each instrument is separately earthed, interconnecting cable shields should be
connected at one end only.
3.13. Regulatory Sealing Requirements
To comply with regulatory sealing requirements for each instrument, (i.e. to ensure
instruments are not accidentally or deliberately tampered with), it is important that proper
sealing procedures be adhered to. Refer to Legal Sealing page 89 for more information.
3.14. Accessory Module connection
Up to 4 accessory modules can be plugged into the rear of the instrument. There are many
types of modules which can be used. These modules provide additional features such as:
•power supply options, e.g. mains power or batteries
•communications ports, e.g. RS485 networking
•analogue outputs, e.g. 4-20mA or 0-10V
•digital inputs and digital outputs, e.g. external buttons or setpoint outputs
•expanded memory, e.g. DSD functionality.
Caution: The instrument should be switched off before connecting or disconnecting
accessory modules.
Each module will come with a manual which explains the features, installation and use of the
module.
After connection, the module needs to be configured using the instrument setup menus. All
hardware test functions and hardware options (such as serial baud rates or digital input
debouncing) are in the H.WARE (hardware) menu described in section 1.1 page 42. Module
