1 Function Block Concept

If you are not familiar with the function block concept, read this chapter first.
This chapter is organised by three sections:

n The first section (Item 1.1) explains what function blocks are and how they
convert a weighing task into a function block diagram.
n The second section (Item 1.2 (will tell you how to enter the function block
diagram into DISOMAT with the aid of keyboard and menu tree and gives
examples how to enter and change function block parameters.
n The third section (Item 1.3) provides an overview of the DISOMAT function
block parameters.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 1

1.1 Function Blocks – Introduction

1.1.1 What Are Function Blocks?

Function blocks are elements you can use to match the functionality of DISOMAT
to your particular requirements. DISOMAT holds a variety of different types of
function blocks. These are linked with one another and thus lead to the
functionality of DISOMAT you desire.

Follow two steps when working with function blocks:

1. Clarify your weighing task and prepare a function block diagram.
2. Link function blocks in DISOMAT menu tree as shown in your function block
diagram. Function blocks are stored in system in form of a library. You can
also line function blocks using the DISOPLAN configuration software, see Item
6.2.

You may change an existing function block linkage at any time and thus adapt the
device to the new weighing task.

DISOMAT Basic Version

The DISOMAT already includes several scales variants (function variants).
Information on these variants can be found in the operating manual BV-H 2335.

DISOMAT With Customized Function Block Linkage

This version includes an individual function block diagram designed by Schenck
Process in accordance with your specific needs.
In addition to the standard manuals, you receive the order-specific documentation
including the function block diagram with your particular linkage.

DISOMAT Special Version

The software is specially programmed for your application. You will find the version
number in menu tree at menu item 52: SERVICE/
Version as well as on type plate.
In addition to the standard manuals, you receive the order-specific documentation
describing the customized modifications.

1.1.2 From Weighing Problem To Function Block Diagram

Here below a simple example will show you how you convert your weighing task
into a function block diagram.

Weighing Task:
Maintain hopper level at a maximum value. If hopper level is too low, start refilling
and replenish hopper until maximum level is reached again.

Control Task:
From the viewpoint of control, it takes a Set/Act comparison. Measure GROSS
weight of load on scale and compare it with setpoint. If GROSS weight lies below
setpoint, a contact opens the refill gate/valve.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 3

Solution Using Function Blocks

DISOMAT offers a solution to the problem. The library of function blocks holds four
function blocks of the same type capable of performing a set/act comparison. One
of the function blocks is named Comparator1.

To solve the weighing task:

(a) Tell Comparator1
n GROSS weight of load on scale

n Limit value

and
(b) Output result to refill gate/valve for this to open or shut, as the case may be.

(a) GROSS weight:

In function block library, there is function block Gross determining the GROSS
weight of the displayed scale. If appropriately linked, function block Gross reports
GROSS weight to function block Comparator 1.

Limit value:
Limit value is entered into function block Comparator 1. Use menu tree.

(b) Output result of comparison:

There are function blocks which enable you to output from other function blocks.
One of these function blocks is named Output1.

Function Block Diagram:

You design a function block diagram in which function blocks Output1,
Comparator1 and Gross are linked. Function block diagram looks like this:

1.1.3 Function Block Construction

This item explains the function blocks in greater detail.

Name of function block group is always shown in CAPs (e.g. COMPARATORS);

name of function block, in normal (lower case) letters (e.g. Comparator 1). This
distinction matters when entering links into the device. Letter types indicate
whether display shows function block groups or function blocks.

Function Block Groups

Function blocks of the same type are combined to form function block groups.
Example:
n Function block Gross belongs to function block group Internal Inputs (INT-IN)

n Function block Comparator1, to function block group Comparators

(COMPARATORS)
Function block Output1, to function block group External Outputs (EXT-OUT).

n For function block groups overview, see Item 1.3.

Parameters
Part of function blocks use parameters to define principle of operation.

For example, function block

Comparator1 uses three parameters
(Type, High, Low). Use parameter Type
to select analog input signal type. You
can select percent, weight, or balance.
Use parameters High and Low to define
two limit values.
Limit values determine switching
behaviour of comparator.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 5

Input, Output
The majority of function blocks have an input and an output to
allow a link to be made to other function blocks. They can be
linked to other function blocks on either side. For example, the
function block ‘Comparator 1’ has an input called ‘Input’ and an
output called ‘Comparator 1’. You can link the input to the
output of another function block (e.g. ‘Gross’). You can link the
output to the input of another function block (e.g. ‘Output 1’).

Do not confuse function block input and output with function block groups External
Input (EXT-IN), Internal Input (INT-IN), External Output (EXT-OUT) and Internal
Output (INT-OUT). These function block groups contain function blocks designed
for data communication.

Interconnection Points:
Function blocks that either relay data outwards or receive external data are
equipped either with inputs only or outputs only.

For example, the function block ‘Gross’ has no input, only an

output called ‘Gross’. It determines the current weight on the
scales indicated and relays this value to other function blocks
through the analog output. The output of this function block
can only be linked to the input of another function block.
e.g. output ‘Gross’ with the input of function block
‘Comparator 1‘.

For example, function block EDP-Out1 has no output but an

input only named EDP-Out1.
Function block passes a binary value it has received from
another function block linked within it onto EDP interface. In
this function block you can only link input to output of a
different function block (e.g. input EDP-Out1 with output
Comparator 1 of function block Comparator1).

6 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

1.1.4 Function Block Inputs/Outputs

DISOMAT distinguishes linkages, inputs, and outputs by analog and binary.

Function blocks are linked by given rules. Take this into consideration when
designing function block diagram.

Example
GROSS value from function block Gross is output in analog form from output
Gross. It does not make good sense to try to link this function block with function
block EDP-Out1. Function block EDP-Out1 can output binary values only (0 or 1).

Visualization
Analog inputs and outputs are shown as dots.

Binary inputs and outputs are shown as squares.

Analog Inputs/Outputs
An analog signal is multivalent. Within its range, each signal is assigned to a value
step.

Value step range: -100% … 0 ... +100%

Example: -3000kg … 0 ... +3000kg

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 7

An analog input can be linked to an analog output only. Analog link is shown as a
dashed line.

Binary Inputs/Outputs
A binary signal is bivalent. It assumes two states (logical 0 and logical 1).

Comparator example: - Actual value under limit value

- Actual value over limit value

A binary output can be linked to a binary input only. Binary linkage is shown as a
continuous line.

1.1.5 Admissible Linkages

What May Be Linked?
An output may be linked with several inputs.

Information (analog or binary) always flows from output of a function block to input
of the next function block.

Example
You wish to use GROSS weight of function block Gross to control refill gate/valve
(Output1 contact), and to output value simultaneously at an external analog
indicator.

The DISOMAT function block library contains function block Analog Output
(AnaOut). It can pass on analog signals via terminal bus on device rear panel to
an analog indicator.

Solving Problem By Using Function Blocks

For solving a problem, link output of function block Gross to input of function
blocks Comparator1 and AnaOut.

Function Block Diagram

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 9

What Cannot Be Linked?

Rule 1
An input cannot be linked to several outputs.

Information (analog GROSS weight or binary information) always flows from output
to input. If you were to link several outputs to one input, the input would be hazy
about which output information flowing its way was the valid one.

Rule 2
Analog inputs cannot be linked to binary outputs.
Binary inputs cannot be linked to analog outputs.

Neither DISOMAT nor DISOPLAN permit to do so.

10 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

1.2 Inputting Function Block Links

and Function Block Parameters
New function variants are usually created with DISOPLAN and loaded into the
device. The variant can then be parameterized at the device itself. The links
between the function blocks can be altered if the service password is entered, but
is only advisable in exceptional cases.

1.2.1 Some Hints on Entry

Order of Entry
You may select linkage operations at will. To enter linkages, always link input of a
function block to output of another. That is why we recommend that function block
diagram be entered from right to left, i.e. start with function blocks of function block
group EXT-OUT (External Outputs).

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 11

Before New Entry – Erase Old Linkages

If entering a completely new function block plan, it is advisable to delete any
existing function variants (menu item ‘423: Load/Delete Variant’). This will delete
all existing links.

After Entering Linkages - Test Function Block Diagram

You should perform a test after entering a new function variant.
Check whether the device is functioning with the new function block plan as you
would expect it to.

In particular, check whether the device outputs the expected output quantities
when you change the DISOMAT input quantities (scales weight, keypad, input
contacts).

example. Link function block Analog Output to function block Gross:

Steps
1. Enter the password (service password)
2. Go to menu item ‘423: Edit‘
3. Select first function block X (e.g. Analog Output), whose input is to be linked,
proceeding as follows:
q Select function block group A (e.g. EXT-OUT)

q Select function block X (e.g. Analog Output)

4. Enter function block specific parameters (Range).

(This is possible only if selected function block has parameters.)
5. Select input to be linked to to function block X.
6. Select function block Y (Gross) whose output is to be linked to input of function
block X, proceeding as follows:
q Select function block group B (e.g. INT-IN), associated with function

block Y (Gross).
q Select output (Gross) associated with function block Y (Gross).

Displayed during selection are outputs of all function blocks of function

block group B ( INT-IN).

During editing, control function block output contacts are not updated so that
ongoing control operations are not updated either. This may cause scale control
faults.

Follow these steps:

1. Enter the service password
2. Select menu item ‘424: Edit’
3. Select function block group (e.g. BINAR CB).
4. Select function block (e.g. Delay1).
5. Enter/change parameter value (e.g. StartDly).
6. Complete editing.
7. Save parameters entered.

Comparator 1/2/3/4/5/6
Symbol:

Function Block Group: COMPARATORS

Function: This function block compares the analog values at the input with the two
parameters In and Out (the limit values) and switches the Comparator
output subject to the input signal..
Three types of analog input values can be set, namely weight, percent and
balance.
Switching behaviour across function block output depends on analog input
signal and setting of limit values.
For analog signal are important:
n Magnitude of analog signal
n Direction of change (value rises or falls).Cf. figures below.

38 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

The following configuration is preferable from a safety point of view for a limit value
contact that e.g. monitors the maximum hopper filling level

Parameters:
n Type (of analog input signal): percent, weight or balance.
n HIGH (limit value HIGH)
n LOW (limit value LOW)
As a function of selected Type parameter, for parameters High and Low, the
following settings are possible:
Percent = ±300 % if input signal
Weight = ±300 % of full scale. Unit in ‘scale format’.
Balance = ±300 % of set maximum balance. Unit in ‘scale format’.

Remarks:
When entering percent, take as 100 % the 100 % of respective input variable,
e.g. Input variable = Weighs; 100% = MaxWeighs
Input variable = dW/dt; 100% = max dW/dt

Discharge Weighing 1/2

Symbol:

Function Block Group: CONTROL

Function: Basis for the function block description is the description of the
discharge scales in the operating manual BV-H2335 DE, chapter 6.2.

50 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

Discharge Weighing Operating Sequence:

Start feeding:
Start feeding process when level changes from 0 to 1 at Input Start, and Output
D-Active becomes 1. Output current residual amount at output D-Resid
(D-Resid = Setpoint - NET weight).

1. Feeding
n Feeding from hopper:
Dribble feed contact closes (Output DDribble turns 1) and feeding from hopper
commences. If prefill value is reached, feeding continues in full feed (Output
DDribble turns 0, D-Full turns 1). Another alternative is to trigger feed units
functioning in an analog fashion which the Controller Magnitude signal is used
for.
n Feeding from hopper complete
If main contact value is reached, feeding from hopper is complete (Output
DDribble turns 0).
n It is refilled if it is in excess of the setpoint for the content of the bin (depending
upon the Automatic Filling/Unloading parameter). It is sometimes necessary to
restart feed operation with the Material Start input.
n Settling time elapses.

n Tolerance check and make-up

For tolerance check, DISOMAT must determine the actual weight fed out. This
is possible only if scale has recognized no-motion. If the D-Feed function block
no-motion time is exceeded, event message ”No No-Motion” is output.
No-motion time for function block D-Feed is the time DISOMAT waits for
no-motion of scale. No-motion time must not be confused with scale
parameter Setting Time.
The tolerance of the actual charged amount is verified. More material will be
added in dribble feed mode if it does not reach the value ‘Setpoint - MINUS
tolerance’. The event message ‘Outside Tolerance Range’ is output if the
amount exceeds the value ‘Setpoint + PLUS tolerance’.
n Tracking optimization
If tolerance check discerns a difference within tolerance band between setpoint
and amount fed out, DISOMAT changes value of main contact.

Formula of change reads:

MainCnew = MainConold + Optim * (Act - Set)

MainCnew = New main contact value to be found

Optim = Main contact value of previous feed
Act = Optimization factor
Set = Yielded result of current feed
Example: Optimization factor is 0.5. Main contact value (MainConold) of last feed is in
the region of 2 kg. Current feed has yielded 49 kg. Setpoint is 50 kg. Main
contact of current feed MainConnew is changed to:
MainConnew = 2 + 0.5·(49-50) = 1.5

If difference is out of tolerance band, there is no tracking optimization.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 51

With conclusion of tracking optimization feeding process is complete (Parameter

D-Active becomes 0).

n After feeding, DISOMAT retains NET weight (amount fed out) until set delay
time has elapsed. A further start (during multiple dosage) is only possible at
expiration of the waiting period. If you set wait time to 0.0s, tare memory is
automatically cleared and scale is ready for next feeding operation.
2. Refilling
The hopper is filled (Output E-Fill becomes 1) if the gross weight on the scales
is smaller than/equal to the Min. Fill Level sort parameter value or if the Gross
value < Setpoint value at the start. The filling will continue for as long as the
gross weight on the scales is larger than/equal to the sort parameter value
Max. Fill Level.
The refill procedure is then complete (output E-Fill becomes 0).

Balancing Feeding Process

Each feeding process aborted or complete is automatically balanced.
In Balance Total memory, value of actual amount fed is added up.
In Number of Dumps memory, value is incremented by 1.
In addition, a material specific balancing takes place. These balance memories are
visible in home position display (Balance). Their contents can be printed or
transmitted to EDP. Menu tree function 472: ClearBal clears all balance
memories.
Attention:
Function Block DrawBal also writes into Balance Total memory. If function block
D-Feed is linked it does not make good sense to additionally use function block
DrawBal.

Start/Stop Feeding Process

n Start feeding
Feeding process starts after change of edges from 0 to 1 at input Start .

n Stop feeding
Feeding process can be stopped at any time.
Stop is triggered by change of edges from 0 to 1 at input Stop. Stopped are all
active feeding and refilling processes. Output D-Stop goes to 0. All other
outputs with the exception of output D-Active go to 0. Stop of feed is briefly
displayed with Stop Feed. Feeding continues after renewed change from 0 to
1 at input Start. All outputs assume their previous states. Feeding continues in
regular fashion.

n Abort feeding
The feeding operation can be aborted at any time. A switch in the level of the
Stop input from 0 to 1 subsequent to an interruption will stop the procedure, as
will a change from 0 to 1 at the Abort input.
All outputs become 0. Output D-Resid reports residual amount to be fed.
(Partial) amount fed out is balanced; the number of feed processes,
incremented by 1.

52 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

Discharge Scales Fast

Symbol:

Function Block Group: CONTROL

Function: In principle, this function block has the same function as function
block D-Feed.

Special Features:
n Advantage: Weight is compared 132 times per second during feeding
operation instead of 10 times per second.
Disadvantage: For program technical reasons, function block outputs
D-Full/DDribble are firmly linked with contact outputs Output1 OUT1 to
Output3 OUT2.
The back-read output information only of the respective contact output (refer
to function block ‘Output1’) can be used at the respective outputs of the
function block ‘DischargeFast’ for further function block switching.
n Switching behaviour of D-Full and DDribble is parallel instead of
sequential. This was necessary to avoid a ‘gap’ in changeover from full feed
to dribble feed (no contact set).
The implementation prevents this ‘gap’ from occurring during ‘normal’
discharge weighing!
n Upon feed start, Output1 (D-Full) and Output2 (DDribble) are set. If
prefilling is selected, (smooth start), Output2 (DDribble) is set alone; Output2
(D-Full) is added once prefill value is reached. Feeding
continues in full feed until dribble feed changeover value is reached. Output1
is reset, Output2 remains available until dribble fed cut-off
value is reached.
n Fast Discharge can only be used with scales 1 or 2 in fast mode. The
measuring rate will return t o10 Hz if the scales are used as twin-unit scales.

Parameters: Are identical with those of ‘normal’ discharge weighing.

Fill Weighing Operating Sequence:

Start of feeding operation:
The feeding operation is started by a level change from 0 to 1 at the start input.
The F-Active output becomes 1. The current residual amount is output
at output F-Res (E-Res = Setpoint - net weight).

1st Feeding
n Feeding into hopper
Potentially partially filled hopper will be tared if Tare = Yes.
The scales tare value at the time of the begin of feeding operation will be used
if Tare = No.
The dribble feed contact closes (output F-Drib becomes 1); feeding into the
hopper begins. Feeding will switch from dribble feed to full feed once the pre-fill
value has been reached (output F-Drib becomes 0, F-Full becomes 1).
Feeding will switch from full feed to dribble feed once the pre-act contact value
has been reached (output F-Full becomes 0, F-Drib becomes 1). Alternatively,
analog feeding organs can be controlled. The actuating variable signal is used
for this.
n Completing feeding operation
Hopper filling is stopped once the main contact value is reached (output F-Drib
becomes 0).
n The hopper may be emptied if the gross value exceeds the Max. Fill Level sort
parameter (depends on the parameter ‘Auto Fill/Dis.’). The minimum discharge
time at least will remain at the output F-Dis. Feeding may then need to be
restarted via the Material Start input.
n Delay time begins counting down.

n Tolerance check and adding more material

DISOMAT must determine the actual charged weight to be able to perform a
tolerance check.
This actual weight can only be calculated when the scales identifies an idle
state. The event message ‘No Idle State’ is output if the idle time of the
function block is exceeded. The idle time of the function block is the time for
which the DISOMAT will wait for the scales idle time. Do not confuse the
function bock idle time with the scales’ parameter idle time.
The tolerance of the actual charged amount is verified. More material will be
added in dribble feed mode if it does not reach the value ‘Setpoint - MINUS
tolerance’. The event message ‘Outside Tolerance Range’ is output if the
amount exceeds the value ‘Setpoint + PLUS tolerance’.
n Optimization of further feeding
If, when checking the tolerance, a difference within the tolerance range is
identified between the setpoint and the charged amount, the value if the main
contact will be adjusted by the DISOMAT.

64 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

Formula of change reads:

MainCnew = MainConold + Optim · (Act - Set)

MainCnew = New main contact value to be found

MainCold = Main contact value of previous feed

Optim = Optimization factor

Act = Yielded result of current feed

Set Setpoint of current feed

Example: Optimization factor is 0.5. Main contact value (MainCon old) of last feed is in
the region of 2 kg. Current feed has yielded 49 kg. Setpoint is 50 kg. Main
contact of current feed MainConnew is changed to:
MainConnew = 2 + 0.5 · (49-50) = 1.5

If difference is out of tolerance band, there is no tracking optimization.

With conclusion of tracking optimization, feeding process is complete
(Parameter F-Active becomes 0).

n If feeding is complete, NET weight (amount fed) is shown on DISOMAT display

until set wait time has elapsed. New start of filling (with multiple feeding) is not
possible before elapse of wait time.
If wait time is set to 0.0s, tare memory is not automatically cleared.

2. Discharging active
If the gross weight on the scales is larger than/equal to the Max. Fill Level sort
parameter after a feeding operation, the hopper will be emptied
(output F-Dis. becomes 1).

The discharge process will continue until

n the gross weight on the scales becomes smaller than/equal to the value of the
Discharge Weight sort parameter and

n the discharge time has elapsed.

n The discharge procedure is then complete (output F-Dis. becomes 0). The
Max. Fill Level parameter should be smaller than the setpoint if discharging
should occur automatically after each feeding operation. If so set, the value of
the Max. Fill Level will be overwritten after each feeding operation - automatic
discharge will take place.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 65

Balancing Feed Process

Each aborted or completed feeding process is automatically balanced.
In memory Balance Total value of actual amount fed is added up.
In memory Number of Dumps value is incremented by 1.
In addition, a material specific balancing takes place. These balance memories are
visible in home position display (Balance), can be printed printed or transmitted to
EDP. Menu tree function 472: ClearBal clears all balance memories.
Attention:
Function Block DrawBal also writes into Balance Total memory. If function block
F-Feed is linked it does not make good sense to additionally use function block
DrawBal.

Start/Stop Feeding
n Start feeding
Feeding starts after change of edges from 0 to 1 across input Start.

n Stop feeding
Feeding process can be stopped at any time.
Stop is triggered by change of edges from 0 to 1 at input Stop. Stopped are all
active feeding and refilling processes. Output F-Stop goes to 1. All other
outputs with the exception of output F-Active become 0. Output F-Resid
continues reporting the residual amount to be fed out. Stop of feeding is
displayed with “Feed Stopped”. Feeding continues after renewed change of
edges from 0 to 1 at input Start. All outputs assume their previous states.
Feeding continues in regular fashion.

n Abort feeding
Feeding process can be aborted at any time.
Abort is triggered by change from 0 to 1 at input Stop following a stop.
Abort of feeding is displayed with Abort Feed.
All outputs become 0. Output F-Resid reports residual amount to be fed.
(Partial) amount fed out is balanced; the number of feed processes, incre-
mented by 1.

Filling Scales Fast

Symbol:

Function Block Group: CONTROL

Function: In principle, this function block has the same function as function block

Special Features:
n Advantage: Weight is compared 132 times per second during feeding
operation instead of 10 times per second Cut-off is considerably faster.
Disadvantage: For program technical reasons, function block outputs
D-Full/DDribble/D-Fill are firmly linked with contact outputs Output1 OUT1 to
Output3 OUT2.
Only the read-back information of the respective contact output (refer to
function block ‘Output 1’) can be utilized at the corresponding function block
outputs for further function block connections.
n The switching behavior between F-Full and F-Drib is parallel rather than
sequential. This is necessary to avoid ‘gaps’ (no contact set) when switching
from full feed to dribble feed. No ‘gaps’ occur during normal feeding because of
its rate of measurement!
n Filling Scales Fast can only be performed on scales 1 or scales 2 because of
the measuring rate of 132 Hz. If connected, Filling Scales Fast operates at 10
Hz just like the normal filling scales.
n Upon feed start, Output 1 (F-Full) and Output 2 (FDribble) are set. If
prefilling is selected, (smooth start), Output 2 (FDribble) is set alone; Output 2
(F-Full) is added once prefill value is reached. Feeding continues in full feed
until dribble feed changeover value is reached. Output 1 is reset, Output 2
remains available until dribble fed cut-off value s reached.

Parameters: Are identical with those of ‘normal’ discharge weighing.

Parameters: None

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 77

Memory 1/2
Symbol:

Function Block Group: ANA-COMB

Function: Function block stores analog value across input MemInp and
outputs value at Output MemOutp1/2. Storage of value across input
MemInp takes place when input Set = 1.
With use of a different circuitry, memory can be used to store both
analog and digital signals and as GATE circuitry.

Analog Memory: By logical 1 across input Set (falling edge) and logical 0 across
input Reset, analog value across input MemInp is stored. Analog
value is therefore continuously available across output MemOutp.
In addition, logical 1 is output at output Hold. This indicates that a
value has been written to memory. See also Example 1.

Digital Memory: Set = 1 across input leads to Output Hold = 1. Output Hold
becomes 0 when Reset = 1, independent of signal across input Set.
See also Example 2.

GATE Circuitry: In the case of a GATE circuitry, analog value across input MemInp
is connected through to input MemOutp as long as logical 1 is
available across input Set. When input Set drops out, value at time
of drop-out is stored. Output of analog value 0.0 is achieved by
Reset logical 1 at input.

Parameters: None

78 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

Example 1 – Storing Analog Value:

Task: During weighing operation, have tared weight (= contents of TARE
memory) output at an external analog indicator (0-20 mA).

Solution: Link function blocks in accordance with function block diagram.

Press Key F1 to trigger weighing operation. Function block D-Feed
tares, writes thus tare value to TARE memory, and switches output
D-Full to 1.
Output D-Full = 1 causes in function block Memory 1 output of TARE
memory at output MemOutp 1. If output D-Full while feeding is in
progress becomes 0 again, this has no effect on output of TARE value;

value is stored.

Function Block Diagram:

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 79

Example 2 – Storing Digital Value:

Task: Fault message from DISOMAT is to keep external light signal lit even after
acknowledgement at device. External light signal is to go out only after
external push-button has been pressed.

Solution: Link function blocks Output2 and Memory 1 as well as Memory 1, Input1
and Fault. Fault message leads to output Hold1 = 1, and LED lights up.
This status is stored, independent of other status across input Set. When
input Set = 0, with external push-button pressed (input Reset), Output
Hold can again turn 0. LED goes out.

Output 1-12 (incl. fast comparator)

Symbol:

Function Block Group: EXT-OUT

Function: This function block has two functions:

1. Pass on binary signal from function block wiring to corresponding

output (plug-in terminal).
2. Realize Fast Comparator function. Compare Gross weight with
parameter settings.
A fast comparator is permanently connected to the corresponding
output for software reasons. Outputs as described in item 1. is no
longer possible if the fast comparator is active. The two functions are
mutually exclusive!
The output function (function 1) can only become active when the
input Fst. Comp. Active is linked with B-0 or is open.
The fast comparator differs from the ‘normal’ comparator in the rate of
measurement and the input information (what is compared?).
The measuring rate is 132 measurements per second, the input
information is fixed and is always gross. Switching behavior depends
on the current gross value and on whether the value increases or
decreases.
The current state of the output contact (plug-in block terminals) is
present at the output OutX_R (read-back output X). This information
can be used for further function block switching.

Parameters: ,FstComp. switch-on value. FstComp. switch-on and -off value. Fast
comparator off.

Scales used: scales 1 / scales 2

Remarks: The position of output contacts can be shown in the display dialog area.

Parameters: None

94 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

Receiving Scale (SWT version only)

Symbol:

Function Block Group: CONTROL

Function: There are two possible weighing sequences:

1. Receiving Sequence:

A certain amount of material, e.g. a ship loading, is ”received” and

recorded. A weigh hopper is continuously filled and discharged.
The partial amounts are recorded and balanced.
The operation is stopped/aborted in manual, if no more material is
to be weighed, or if material is out.

2. Load-Out Sequence:
A certain amount of material is ”loaded” and recorded.
A weigh hopper is continuously filled and discharged. The operation
terminates automatically once setpoint is reached.
Filling and discharged is controlled as a function of input signals
Surge Hopper Closed or Weigh Hopper Closed. Receiving/loading
sequence can be stopped, continued and aborted at any time with the
use of the Start/Stop inputs. Using the CheckStop input, the
operation can be stopped for check/calibration purposes.

The required parameter settings for the receiving/load-out weighing are divided as
follows:
n Function-specific data
- Idle time = Maximum time limit before which the scales should have
identified idle state.
- Minimum discharge time = The minimum time for which the discharge contact
is set.
- Mode of feeding = Discharge scales or filling scales
- Zeroing = The scales are zeroed every X fills. (0 -> no zeroing)
Scales used = The scales at which the feed operation is performed.
n Sort-specific data
- These can be entered in the menu tree under 473: Sort.

n Before starting first load-out operation, select material number (1-10) and enter
load-out setpoint by function key operation (see Function Block Linkage) or in
menu tree ‘1:Enter Setpoint’. Selection of material number is relevant only for
material specific balancing.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 95

The partial amounts fed out are automatically added into totals memory and
particular material totals memory.

96 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

Operating Sequence:
The description refers to the ‘Discharge Scales’ mode of operation. The ‘Filling
Scales’ mode of operation works quicker on the whole (no taring) but can only be
used for smooth-flowing materials such as grain.
The Receiving Scale sequence consists of a limited number of dumps.
Receiving terminates after operation of Stop/Abort key or if material is out
(realizable by function block linkage).

The Load-Out Scale sequence also consists of a limited number of dumps.

Load-out terminates when setpoint is reached. Load-out can cut off before setpoint
is reached. The last two dumps befores setpoint are smaller but equal in quantity.
This avoids feeding of very small amounts before setpoint is reached.

The operating sequence described below is identical for receiving and load-out
weighing.

Every dump has two phases:

1. Filling of hopper if certain criteria are met.

2. Discharge of hopper if certain criteria are met.

Start Weighing:
Start filling process when level changes from 0 to 1 at Input Start and Output
R-Active becomes 1.

1. Filling
n Open Surge Hopper contact closes, (Output R-Surge Hopper
becomes 1), filling of hopper commences.

n Filling stops (output A-surge hopper becomes 0) once the full value has been
reached (sort parameter Max. Fill Level).

n Wait for signal edge to change from 0 to 1 at input Surge Hopper Closed. To
protect loaded amount from being falsified by afterflowing material, DISOMAT
waits for surge hopper to close. Wait time is unlimited.

n Check For No-Motion and Taring

The scales are tared. This can happen only when the scales have identified an
idle state. The error message ‘No Idle State’ is output if the idle time of the
function block is exceeded. Do not confuse the function bock idle time with the
scales’ parameter idle time.

Attention:
During filling, DISOMAT does not check weigh hopper for being closed.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 97

2. Discharging
After taring of scale, hopper is discharged (Output R-Disch becomes 1).
Discharging continuous until:

n The gross weight on the scales is lower than the Min. Fill Level sort parameter
value and the minimum discharge time has elapsed.
n The discharge procedure is then complete (output A-Dis. becomes 0). The time
will not be monitored if the minimum discharge time = 0.
n The weigh hopper input level is switched from 0 to 1. To guarantee that the
correct material quantity is measured, the DISOMAT waits until the weigh
hopper is closed. There is no time limit on how long it will wait.
n The scales identify idle state.
The error message ‘No Idle State’ is output if the idle time of the function block
is exceeded. Do not confuse the function bock idle time with the scales’
parameter idle time.
n Balancing of load-out operation is complete.
Any load-out operation, aborted or complete, is automatically balanced.
Number of Dumps memory increments by 1.
Output R-DumpEnd is set. This signal can be used, for instance, to activate
single dump printout.
n DISOMAT clears tare memory.

Resume or Abort Load-Out Process:

If during previous dump no abort has been made, DISOMAT starts new dump.
After abort, DISOMAT returns to HOME position (Output R-Active becomes 0).
Attention:
Function block DrawBal also writes into Balance Total memory. If function block
R-Feed is linked it does not make good sense to additionally use function block
DrawBal.

During discharge process, DISOMAT does not check surge hopper for being
closed.

After acknowledgement of error message Discharge Time Exceeded weigh

hopper must be closed to enable DISOMAT to resume program.

Starting and Stopping the Loading Operation

n Start Load-Out Process:
Load-out process is triggered by change of edges from 0 to 1 at input Start .

n Stop Load-Out Process:

The loading operation can be interrupted at any time (output SWT-Inter.
becomes 1). The interruption is cleared by switching the level at the Stop input
from 0 to 1. The interruption will stop the filling or the discharge operation. With
the exception of output A-active and SWT-Inter., all outputs will become 0.
The display will register the interruption with the message ‘Feeding Stopped’.
Loading will be continued when the value at the Start input is switched from 0
to 1. All outputs will resume their previous state and the loading procedure will
be continued as normal.

98 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

n The loading operation can be aborted at any time. A switch in the level of the
Stop input from 0 to 1 subsequent to an interruption will stop the procedure, as
will a change from 0 to 1 at the Abort input.
Attention:
Abort of load-out process includes continuation of program until discharge of
weigh hopper.

Check Stop
Holds for all scales destined to be stamped.

Check Stop is required if the scale to be checked is used as check scale. In this
case, filling or load-out process can be stopped whenever required.

After Check Stop, current process is run to completion. After filling process,
GROSS weight of load in weigh hopper is displayed. After discharge, display
shows amount fed out.

After interruption of a filling, or discharge, process by a Check Stop, discharge

process can be restarted by using function key Start or aborted with key Stop.

Malfunction Behavior:
There will be no change in behavior if an event message in the category Warning
Feed Operation is output.

If an event message in the category Alarm or Malfunction occurs and when power
is returned after a power failure
1. Event message .
Load-out stopped.

StartStp-Start/Stop
Symbol:

Function Block Group: BINAR-CB

Function: Connected upstream of the function blocks receiving scales, discharge
operation, filling operation, this function block acts as an additional
locking device.
Logic 1 at the Stop input is always relayed immediately to the Stop output
and thus to the feeding block to which it is linked.
This is not subject to the value at Start or Abort inputs. An impulse of 100
ms logic 1 will only be output at the Start or Abort outputs if the Stop input
is logic 1 and the value at the Start or Abort Inputs again switches from
logic 0 to logic 1.
Furthermore, this function block also implements the DP commands
#GO# for Start, #HA# for Stop and #AB# für Abort. These DP commands
generate a 100 ms impulse at the corresponding function block output.
Confirmation of an abort or of the end of the feeding operation will only be
relayed to the DP if the DP command #GO# was made.

Parameters: None

Example: See Operating Manual BV-H 2335.

Remarks: If, upon change of edge, display is in menu tree state, prompt is stored.
You will know this by the * symbol in the last column of the upper
dialog line.
The input prompt will only appear after a return to the initial state.

106 BV-H2317GB/0940 DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks

Stoplight
Symbol:

Function block group: CONTROL

Function:
This function block regulates the two-way traffic on a road weighbridge by
controlling stoplights or barriers. It ensures that the scales are zeroed and also
checks the position of the vehicle on the scales using blink signals from the exit
stoplight.

Parameters:
The inputs/outputs ‘ - RIGHT’ will be ignored or not switched when in ‘One-Way
Traffic’ operation mode. ‘Prefer ...’ or ‘Alternating’ determine which vehicle may
drive onto the weighbridge if traffic is two-way and if there are vehicles waiting for
clearance on both sides of the weighbridge once the vehicle currently being
weighed drives off.
The scales used and the empty threshold establish the scales used and a
threshold value below which the scales are considered to be unloaded.
The maximum approach time establishes the time period after which the
stoplight will again turn red if an erroneous approach request is made.
The down time establishes the length of time by which a new approach will be
delayed once a vehicle has left the scales. This is intended to prevent erroneous
approach requests on the scales’ exit side.
If the position check is ‘YES’, the ‘SENSOR’ inputs are read to correctly position
a vehicle on the scales using the blinking exit stoplight.

The sensor level establishes the level for the SENSOR ‘Covered’ state and
determines the approach request inputs.

Operational Sequence
The operational sequence assumes that the approach request inputs and the
SENSOR inputs are connected to induction loops. The approach request loops are
located in front of the approach stoplight, the SENSOR loops are located
between the stoplight and the scales. This arrangement is present in a
symmetrical formation to the left and right of the scales if the scales can be
approached from both sides.
1. The initial state of the stoplights is RED.
2.

DISOMAT® Tersus Function Blocks BV-H2317GB/0940 107

One of the ‘Approach Request’ inputs will indicate whether a vehicle wishes to
drive onto the scales.
3. The scales are zeroed. If this is unsuccessful, the approach stoplight blinks
RED. The zeroing is repeated every 5 seconds until it is successful or until the
vehicle no longer covers the induction loop.
4. The approach stoplight will light a steady GREEN, the approach barrier will
open and the maximum approach time will begin counting down. If the scales
are loaded by the approaching vehicle, the approach stoplight will light a
steady RED and the approach barrier will receive the signal to close.
5. If the position control is active, the approach stoplight will blink GREEN as
long as the approach SENSOR is covered. The ample will light a steady RED
if the approach SENSOR is uncovered. The exit stoplight will blink RED if the
vehicle drives so far along the scales that it covers the exit SESENSOR. The
vehicle must then reverse a little.
6. The vehicle can now be weighed.
7. ‘Exit Clear’ means that the exit stoplight can be set to GREEN and the exit
barrier can be opened. Once the empty threshold has been under-run, the exit
stoplight will light a steady RED and the exit barrier will receive the signal to
close.
8 The down time begins counting down.
9. The block is again in its initial state (1).

Handling Exceptional Cases

If a vehicle should have driven onto the scales without paying attention to the
approach stoplight, it can be given clearance to leave the scales with ‘Exit Clear’.
However, in this situation the function block cannot tell with certainty from which
direction the vehicle approached the scales. So all exit stoplights will be set to
GREEN and all exit barriers will be opened. The vehicle can then leave the scales.

Manual Operation
The manual operation input can switch off the stoplight block for troubleshooting
and for bypassing the stoplight control, e.g. using an external application
connected to the fieldbus. If this should be desired, all 8 outputs of the function
block can be controlled directly using a binary’ configured D/A convertor block.

Each non-zero value at the manual operation input deactivates the normal function
of the block. All 8 inputs are then controlled by the Manual Operation input.
