14. LOAD CELL input port
On systems with two load cells the leads are joined by a common connector that is plugged into this port.
15. PRINTER output
This is a parallel printer port. A printer plugged in here allows four types of information to be ported directly to a printer
giving the benefit of a permanent printed record. They are:
1. The totals of the material usage data.
(Press VIEW and "*" keys or use the PRT parameter to AUTOMATICALLY and periodically print these totals.)
2. A listing of the internal parameter table.
(Press *77 in the PROGRAM mode.)
3. A printout of information after each cycle including actual dispensed weights and percentages for every cycle.
(Press *54 in the PROGRAM mode, use "*" to set printer flag ON.)
4. A printout of information after the TIME or CALIBRATE routines.
(*54 flag must be on)
Any common parallel printer that you would use with a small PC computer may be used. Connect using a standard parallel
printer cable, (34 pin parallel Centronix connector to a DB25 IBM compatible connector), available from us or at any
computer store. See: PRINTED OUTPUTS for a detailed explanation of these printouts.
16. COMPUTER input / output
If you choose to gather material usage data automatically and continuously by computer, then this connector allows for
connection to any IBM PC type computer operating under MS-DOS or WINDOWS.
The COMPUTER port is a DB9 (9 pin) male port. You will need a specially wired cable from us to connect to the serial
output on your standard PC computer. Your computer operating system must be MS-DOS or WINDOWS. You will need
software from us for communicating with your Weigh Scale Blender. This software allows downloading settings and retrieval
of information and will produce reports for those customers who wish to take advantage of this feature. Either one or many
Weigh Scale Blenders can be connected to one computer. For multiple Weigh Scale Blender systems, or communication
over long distances, an additional piece of hardware is required. All WSB controllers are fully programmed to communicate
with your computer now or at a later date. For more information, request our "MLAN" (Maguire Local Area Network) or “G2”
software manuals.
17. PANEL FUSE for duplex receptacle - 3 amp
Fuses the common power wire of the duplex receptacle (the color and additive outputs). Since these outlets are only turned
on one at a time, each is protected to the full 3 amp rating of the fuse.
18. PANEL FUSE for processor - 1/2 amp
Fuses power to the circuit board power supply which includes all solenoid outputs and solid-state relay outputs.
19. INTERNAL FUSES
An in-line fuse is provided internally to protect the main 120-volt power cord supply (10) amps. If this fuses blow, an internal
short circuit is indicated and we don't recommend that you try to fix it. Remember, this unit carries a five-year warranty; just
send it back.
The MIX MOTOR timed power source and the AUGER FEEDER OUTLETS are driven by internal solid-state plug-in relays.
These relays are located on the circuit board mounted on the inside back surface of the controller enclosure. A small 5-amp
glass fuse is located to the right of each relay. A spare fuse is also located on the board if replacement is necessary.
20. THUMBWHEEL SWITCHES
The three sets of THUMBWHEEL switches have no effect unless they are assigned to a particular output device. Entry of all
SETTINGS is done by using the KEYPAD. However, if you prefer, you may assign up to three components to the
Thumbwheel switches and then use these switches to set and alter their settings. Since only three switch sets are available,
only 3 components can be controlled in this manner. All others must use the keypad. See ENTERING SETTINGS for more
information on how to do this.
