Rev 1  7/27/02 for SW Ver 1-1

APPENDIX – SPECIFICATIONS & DIMENSIONS

HARDWARE OVERVIEW

Electronics

•  µC Board: 6 layer SMD, AM186ESLV based w/ Flash Memory – 512kbytes of Flash Program Memory, 

512kbytes of non-volatile RAM.

•  Power Supply / I/O Board: power regulation and I/O for MM – Input range 10-16V. Optional direct AC 

board 90-260VAC.

•  2 Channel A/D Board: 4 layer SMD, 24bit A/D. 
•  Highly integrated Radio Modem: 2.4GHz Spread Spectrum. Protected Antenna.
•  Display Board: 4 Layer SMD with six 1.2” (30mm) digits and 14 backlit annunciators.

Housing

•  Alodined Cast Aluminum. Double O-ring gasketed. NEMA 4, IP66

Load Train

•  Load Cell: 4340 Aircraft Quality Steel
•  Industry Standard Lifting Eyes and Bottom Hooks

GENERAL FEATURES

Channels 1-4 – Scale Input Channels

•   Internal Load Cell connected to Channel 1. Optional additional scale inputs by special order for multipoint 

lift situations. 

Channel 5

•

  Channel 5 allows remote access to inputs on remote Slave CellScales

Channel 6

•

  Channel 6 is math calculations. Up to 8 separate math channels can be used to combine  conversions from 

multiple scale channels. Supported functions are: multiply, divide, add, subtract, absolute value, square 

root, and constants. Multiple levels of parentheses are available for any scaling or channel data manipula-

tion formulas.

Excitation

•

  5 V (+5V relative to ground). Current limited and over-voltage protected to Factory Mutual standards. AC 

(switched DC) or DC excitation.

Radio Link

•

  Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum in 64 channels @ 2.4 GHz. Allows 64 collocated networks of scales 

and peripheral devices (MSI Models MSI-9020, MSI-9750A, MSI-9850, MSI-3750CS, etc.). 

Calibration

•

  Via RF or Input Comm Port. Calibration is accomplished through a computer program residing on any 

computer. The calibration program is user friendly, with menus that are easy to use on a full graphics 

screen. Calibration is also available using the MSI-3750CS, MSI-9850 or MSI-9750A Meters. Seal can be 

provided on front panel in Legal-For-Trade systems.
