Copying values
To copy configurations from one force sensor to another, select the
line of the force sensor whose values you want to copy and press
the “copy” control
. Now select the line of the force sensor into
which you want to insert the copied values and press “paste”
Copying values
All configurations except the name of the force sensor are copied.
Multiple selection
By simultaneously holding down the “Ctrl” key with the right-click,
you can select several lines.
6.4.7
Offset compensation
You need to perform this procedure to compensate for the weight of the pulley.
-
Select the line with the force sensor for which you want to define the zero point
-
Ensure that the force sensor is perpendicular above the axis of rotation of the
machine.
-
Make sure that the force sensor is not loaded. There must be no wire on the pulley of
the force sensor.
-
Press “Offset”
-
The calculated value is now entered in the column “Offset” of the selected force
sensor
Refer to the Installation and Operating Manual Telemetry System RTM X42.Modbus
6.4.8
Calibration
This procedure calculates the gain factor. This provides you with an objective tension
value in the configured unit.
-
Select the line with the Force Sensor for which you want to calculate the gain
-
Ensure that the force sensor is perpendicular above the axis of rotation of the
machine.
-
Form the future path of the wire over the pulley of the force sensor. This is best done
with a rope, wire or a string.
-
Hang a defined weight (e.g. 10kg) on the rope
-
In the "Enter Defined Weight" field, enter the attached, defined weight in the
selected unit.
-
Press “Calibrate”
-
The calculated value is now entered in the column “Gain” of the selected force
sensor. To check if the calibration has worked, go to the home screen. The channel
bar display must now show the exact value of the weight force.
