(Q&A)
Q: Can I use KL1 and KL2 in a different way as proposed?
A: Yes, the thresholds are freely programmable. E.g. I can program half load instead of full load.
Take note: The response delay works with KL2 (overload) ONLY, and KL3 (Car Empty) must be activated in
the setup menu before.
Q:
After having changed the configuration in the menu “Configuration”, do I always have to calibrate
before commissioning?
A: No, but it is assumed that if the Empty-Car detection and the floor detection Floor (F) are changed, a
general change of the configuration has been done. So before the commissioning another calibration is
required.
The external motion detector (S) can be turned on and off without requiring a calibration again.
(
→ s. paragraph “Setup Menu“)
Q: How do I have to set the zero point if I have to be on the car while I operate?
A: Consult the paragraph
“Commissioning“, Variant 1 and Variant 2.
Q: How can I undo values (after a faulty operation)?
A: By shortly pressing
“UP“ and “DOWN“ at the same time the original value will be restored. This is only
possible as long as you are in the relevant menu.
If you have left the menu, changes can’t be undone in this
way.
Q: Why is the decimal point to the left rapidly blinking?
A: This blinking shows you that a value has been modified and the device saves the new value.
Q: Do I always have to load the car with the full payload while I am calibrating the car?
A: No, depending on the sensitivity of the sensor 50..75% of the payload suffices. Please note: The
measurement will probably be very inaccurate if you calibrate a large measuring range with a small
reference weight. We recommend no to go below 70% of the payload.
Q: How can I completely reset the CLMI (General-Reset)?
A: Press the keys
“UP” and “DOWN” for 10 seconds. All values including the calibration values are deleted,
now.
Q: How can I expand the measuring range over 999kg?
A: Take a tenth of the absolute values of P1 to P4. I.e. when you have a 1500 kg payload, you set P4 to
150. Proceed with the thresholds analogously.
Q: How do I have to interpret the blinking numerical code which is displayed in the test menu?
A: The two digits to the right and in the middle show the reported number of floor in plaintext. The digit to the
left shows the switching state of
“Measuring Stop“ and “Empty Car” in the coded form.
Significations:
2xx
Ext. motion detector reports
“Empty Car“
1xx
“Measuring Stop“ not active, i.e. measuring is running
3xx
“Empty Car” and measuring is running
xx
Number of floor in plaintext
After a minute, the CLMI returns itself to the normal operation mode.
Q: Is the CLMI limited to a certain sensor?
A: No, the CLMI processes a mV/V signal which a strain gauge full bridge generates depending on the force
effect. The CLMI can measure at the yoke, fixed point, rope tension, car ground, car frame or at the motors
bed frame. Ask X-Sensors, there are suitable sensors for any imaginable measuring strategy.
Q: How can I request the software version?
A: Return to the normal mode of the CLMI, it shows the load in kg, now. Press consecutively
“DOWN “ and
“LEFT“ and keep pressing both keys. The display shows a three-digit number. This number represents the
software version.
