Status signals:
●
Still
is an output that indicates when the item is stable on the scale, i.e. the
noise is less than the value defined as the
Gap
.
Still
equal to “1” indicates that a stable value for the weight can be read off.
Of course it is also possible to read off all intermediate values for an increasing
or decreasing weight.
●
Empty
is an output that indicates that the scale is at 0, i.e. the residual weight
detected is less than the value defined by the
Empty
parameter. The
permissible range for
Empty
is from 0 to 255. One unit represents 2
-16
of the
nominal loading of the cell.
●
Error
This output signals that a system error has been detected in the weighing
module or in the weighing process itself.
As a general rule, all errors in a measuring system are reported with the
Error
status signal. At the same time, a description of the type of error is written to the
ErrorID
output.
When the
Status
input is activated, only new errors are captured, while the old er
-
rors are cleared.
