M1295-0050 Scale Interface Box User’s Guide
Before first use, the controller must be configured for the inputs required for your
application. When supplied as part of an NBS system, the controller will have been
configured at the factory to respond correctly to the NBS-controlled instruments.
For other applications, the user must configure the controller. Configuration is done
entirely through the software interface.
Controller Calibration
The controller does not need to be calibrated because the Scale Interface reads the
calibrated digital information from the scale.
Use the Controller
The controller is a passive device. It has no external switches or other controls. So
long as the transformer is plugged in, the controller is ON. All user interaction is
through the software interface.
Turn the computer on, open the controller interface program, and begin using the
controller. The default display consists of one virtual gauge for each controlled
parameter. Other screens (trend graph, configuration, calibrate, cascade, sterilization,
and alarms) can be called up by clicking a button on the overhead tool bar.
