BinTrac Indicator Setup 

The BinTrac Indicator must be set up for peripheral devices. Access the SETUP menu on the BinTrac Indicator by 

pressing and holding the BIN key until 

 appears, then release.  If the display changes to 

, press the  

UPPER  

 key once to return to 

The Bin LEDs indicate configuration options as being enabled (solid on) or disabled (flashing). 

Bin A 

– Configures BinTrac Monitor as a Remote Display. 

Bin B 

– Enable ASCII Serial Communications Command Set 

Bin C 

– Enable Weight Broadcast. 

Bin D 

– Enable communications to peripheral devices. 

This must be enabled when BinTrac Indicator is connected to the HouseLink HL-10P(LV). 

1.  Press the BIN key to select the desired configuration option. 

2.  Use the UPPER 

 or LOWER 

 keys to enable or disable options. 

Operation 

Status LEDs 

The LED will flash three different ways dependent upon how the unit is operating.  

SLOW FLASH 

– This indicates the unit is communicating and operating normally. 

FAST FLASH 

– This means the unit is in Test mode.  

STEADY ON 

– This indicates the unit is not communicating but has power. 

NO LIGHT 

– The unit doesn’t have an adequate power source. 

Testing & Calibration 

Once the unit is wired and the dip switches are set up correctly, the unit can be put into one of five test modes. These 
modes are useful when setting up and testing with the house controls. 

Please note: Due to increased filtering effects on house controllers, for best calibration results wait thirty 
seconds after each button press on the HL-10P so weights can stabilize before proceeding further in the 
calibration process. 

Test 1 

– Press the Test button on the board once and the unit will output -0.5 mV/V. 

Test 2 

– Press the Test button on the board twice and the unit will output 0 mV/V. 

Test 3 

– Press the Test button on the board three times and the unit will output 2 mV/V. 

Test 4 

– Press the Test button on the board four times and the unit will output 3 mV/V. 

Test 5 

– Press the Test button on the board five times and the unit will output 4.5 mV/V. 

 
Pressing the test button a sixth time will return the unit to normal operations. If the unit is left in test mode, it will 
automatically return to normal operation mode after five minutes. 

 

*For calibrating the HouseLink HL-10P(LV) with a 

Maximus-Systems

 control, please refer to instructions in Addendum A.
