1.0. INTRODUCTION:

1.1. ABOUT THIS MANUAL:

This document covers the information needed to connect and calibrate your instrument. Abbreviations and short form
descriptions are explained in section 1.2. Special attention should be given to WARNINGS and PRACTICES.
The FUNCTIONS used for CALIBRATION and OPERATING the instrument are indicated on the lefthand side of the
DISPLAY board by means of LED and are numbered 1 – 20.

1.2. INTRODUCTION:

The TDC/I/0550 is a general purpose PROCESSOR based Loadcell transmitter with 4 ALARM SETPOINTS,
PRINT, ZERO, TARE and HOLD function. Power to the unit can be from AC (110 or 220V) or DC (12-27V). No
gain adjustment is required, as provision is made for a signal input range from 0-3.2mV/V. DATA displayed can be
recorded by connecting a printer with serial port to the unit. Relay setpoints can be altered by simple selecting the
RELAY number. (An external setpoint controller, (option 001) is available for applications where altering the
setpoints during operation is needed.) This new value will be stored when the enter switch is pressed. Housed in a
IP67 polycarbonate enclosure with removable LID, cage clamp wire connectors and simple calibration procedure
makes for a quick installation and commissioning.

1.3. CONVENTIONS USED IN THIS MANUAL:

- NUMERIC INCREMENT SWITCHES refers to 5 push button switches mounted under the LED DISPLAY.
This is used to select numeric data and store in permanent memory. (S5, S6, S7, S8, S9)
- LED DISPLAY refers to the 5 display units that indicate numeric values, decimal point and the function that
was
selected.
Note that the most significant digit can only be 0 or 1.
- NO LOAD SIGNAL refers to the MILLI-VOLT output from the loadcell(s) to the instrument, when the weigh
bridge is empty.
- SLOPE refers to the relation between the MILLI-VOLT output of the loadcells and the DISPLAY value.
- DISPLAY INCREMENTS will be calculated by the processor according to the DATA value set for display
increments (DISP - position 1). The following table shows the increments for different display values.

DISPLAY VALUE INCREMENTS(steps) RESOLUTION(%)


0 to 3000 1 .03
0 to 6000 2 .03
0 to 10000 5 .05
0 to 19999 10 .05

2.0 SETUP INFORMATION:

2.1 CALIBRATION ACCURACY: Best accuracy will be achieved when the known mass that is used for calibrating
the
system, is as CLOSE as possible to the maximum system capacity. (Full load on the loadcells)
2.2 WARM-UP TIME: The instrument should be allowed to stabilise for approximately 20 minutes.
2.3 ANALOG OUTPUTS: Both process outputs (0-10Volt, 4-20mA) can be used simultaneously.
2.4 The VOLTAGE OUTPUT: (0-10Volt) should not be loaded with an impedance less than 5Kohm. If needed, fine
adjustment of the ZERO and SPAN settings can be done by adjusting VR2 for ZERO and VR3 for 10
Volt.(maximum voltage output can not exceed 10.2Volts).
2.5 The CURRENT OUTPUT: (4-20mA) is capable of driving 20mA into a load of 500ohm. See calibration
procedure.
NOTE: IF ANY ADJUSTMENT NEEDS TO BE DONE, THE VOLTAGE OUTPUT MUST BE ADJUSTED
BEFORE THE CURRENT OUTPUT.
The current output can be changed to 0-20mA, by removing jumper J3.
VR5 can be used to fine trim the 4mA setting and VR4 for adjusting the 20mA, if required.

9. WARNINGS AND PRACTICES:

- POWER MUST ALWAYS BE DISCONNECTED BEFORE CONNECTIONS ARE DONE ON


INSTRUMENT.
- BEFORE POWER IS CONNECTED TO THE INSTRUMENT, TEST ALL OUTGOING LINES FOR
SHORT CIRCUITS.
- ENSURE THE INSTRUMENT IS FREE OF LOOSE METALLIC OBJECTS.
- IF A DC SUPPLY IS USED, MAKE SURE THE POLARITY IS CORRECT.
- NEVER REMOVE THE DISPLAY BOARD WHILE POWER IS STILL CONNECTED TO THE UNIT.
- IF FOR ANY UNFORSEEN REASON, IT HAPPENS THAT THE FUSE BLOWS, NEVER REPLACE IT
WITH A HIGHER RATING. CONTACT THE SUPPLIER FOR ADVICE.
- IT IS ADVISED TO USE THE EXCITATION VOLTAGE SENSE FUNCTION, IF THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN THE INSTRUMENT AND THE LOADCELLS EXCEEDS THE STANDARD LENGTH OF
THE LOADCELL, OR IF A JUNCTION BOX IS USED, 6 CORE SCREENED CABLE SHOULD BE
USED TO CONNECT BETWEEN THE INSTRUMENT AND THE JUNCTION BOX.
WHEN LOADCELLS MANUFACTURED BY TRANSDUCER DEVELOPMENTS Co. (Pty) Ltd. ARE
USED IN THE APPLICATION, THE FOLLOWING COLOUR CODE IS APPLICABLE. CONFIRM
DURING COMMISSIONING THAT THE EXCITATION VOLTAGE IS STABLE, AND WITHIN THE
LIMITS 10 VOLT (+/-80mV). USE COLOUR CODING AS FOLLOWS:

10. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:

10.1 Using the ZERO function:

Pressing on this function will clear the display to 0000. This is a very useful function when you need to load a
specific mass on a scale, or when some residue was left over from a previous batch.

10.2 TARE function:

This function is used for clearing the display, not loosing previous data.
If the value 88 units is displayed, and the TARE function is selected, the display will clear to 0000. The polarity
sign will flash to indicate “TARE” mode. If TARE is selected again, the value 88 will appear on the display.
(Provided that the load was kept the same).
If the value 88 is displayed and TARE is selected, the display will go to 0000. If the load is now increased with 22
units, and TARE is selected again, the display will indicate the result 100. Pressing the display again, will repeat
the sequence.

10.3 HOLD function:

Selecting this function will instruct the processor to hold the display value or the highest value. This value will be
indicated in flashing mode. Pressing the HOLD key again, will reset the instrument to normal operating mode.

10.4 PRINT function:

Pressing this key will print one single line on a serial printer with the correct setup.
Every time the power to the unit is removed and reconnected, the heading will be printed. If the print button is
selected, the value on the display, the date, time and batch number will be printed. Rotating the FUNCTION
SELECT switch to any other function and back to OPER (refer operate), will also print the heading and reset the
batch counter.

10.5 Time delay on pressing the keys:

After a key was pressed, a 1 second time count will be initialised. During that time all keys will be disabled.

10.6 SETPOINT indicators:

The status of the 4 relays is indicated on the left of the display. When a relay has changed from the normal to the
energised state, the corresponding LED will light up. Note that it will only fall out again when the load drop to 1%
lower than the presetted value. (as described in 4.5).

IN NORMAL OPERATION, IF ‘ENTER’ BUTTON IS PRESSED, THE TOTALISING FUNCTION WILL START. THE
VALUE ON THE SCALE AT THAT STAGE WILL BE ADDED TO THE TOTAL.. EACH TIME ‘ENTER’ IS
PRESSED THE VALUE WILL BE ADDED TO THE TOTAL. ONLY THE CURRENT VALUE WILL BE DISPLAYED.
IF ‘PRINT’ IS PRESSED, EVERY BATCH AS WELL AS THE TOTAL WILL BE PRINTED ON THE PRINTER. IF
THE TOTALISING FUNCTION IS IN PROGRESS, THE SIGN ON THE DISPLAY WILL FLASH.

IF ‘DEC PNT’ IS PRESSED, THE AVERAGE FOR THE BATCHES WILL BE CALCULATED AND DISPLAYED.
THE DISPLAY WILL FLASH. IF ‘PRINT’ IS PRESSED, THE NUMBER OF BATCHES, THE TOTAL FOR THE
BATCHES AS WELL AS THE AVERAGE WILL BE PRINTED. IF ‘DEC PNT’ IS PRESSED AGAIN, EVERYTHING
WILL BE CLEARED AND THE SYSTEM WILL GO BACK TO NORMAL OPERATION.

IF ‘ENTER’ IS PRESSED WHILE THE AVERAGE VALUE IS DISPLAYED, THE WEIGHT ON THE SCALE WILL
BE ADDED TO THE TOTAL AND THE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE WITH TOTALISING FUNCTION UNTIL ‘DEC
PNT’ IS PRESSED AGAIN.
