Feed-Link 2
Testing Feed-Link Load Cells with a Volt/Ohm Meter (Continued)
With the Meter on Ohms and dial on 20K setting
With the black meter probe on red load cell wire and the red meter probe on the white load cell wire the
meter should have no reading =
GOOD CELL
. It would be same reading as if the probes were touching
nothing. If you get a reading =
BAD CELL
.
NOW
: With the black meter probe on white load cell wire and the red meter probe on the red load cell wire
the meter should display around 3K Ohms or greater. If no reading or very low reading =
BAD CELL
.
Full Bin Error Messages
FullBin: Add Feed
Empty calibration has been performed and a full bin calibration is being attempted, but there is not enough
of a difference from the empty bin weight, so it is saying to add feed.
FullBin: Dec Feed
Empty calibration has been performed, but the load cells are at their maximum weight and this is saying
to decrease feed. This is normally the case when a 5K bar is being used in a 10K application and the
5K bar is seeing too much weight.
FullBin: Do Empty
An empty calibration has not been performed yet and a full bin calibration is being attempted.
FullBin: No Cells
When performing a full bin calibration, the display unit requires a minimum of one enabled load cell that is
functioning properly. Common problems include:
• Installation of load cell (are bolts contacting and damaging load cell).
• Junction Box.
• Wiring in base of the display unit.
See Testing Feed-Link Load Cells
for additional diagnostics.
FullBin: OOR
When performing a full bin calibration, the weight entered by the user is either too small or too large.
Normally, this is a result of either a bad empty bin calibration (empty tank weight) or a bad value for the
full bin calibration. First, verify the empty bin weight in the Configuration Menus, and then verify the
weight entered for the full bin calibration.
Perform Empty
An empty bin calibration has not been done yet. This error message will scroll between it, weight display
and load cell error messages.
