.
5.1~STATE LED
The
State LED is GREEN under normal run conditions indicating an
in-range input signal. If the input signal is out of range or is lost, the
State LED will light RED.
5.2~TARE
If PINs 9 and 12 are shorted (momentarily) the input value will be
overwritten by the TARE setpoint value (normally zero).
5.3~ACTIVE TRIM
Down Adjust button press: Configures the low scale output against the
live input signal.
Up Adjust button press: Configures the high scale output against the
live input signal.
Press and keep button pressed - the state light will go off for a few
seconds then flash at a fast rate before returning to a steady state.
Release button. Adjust operation complete. Output adjusts to levels
pre-set in the software configuration.
6~USER CONFIGURATION.
The SEM1600B can be configured using a Windows PC.
Live input and output values can also be viewed on a PC or a suitable
Android device.
6.1~PC CONFIGURATION USBSpeedLink Software
During
configuration the equipment takes its power from the
USB port, therefore no power connection is required. The equipment
can be configured whilst powered but the computer used must be
portable battery-powered or a USB isolator should be used to isolate
the SEM1600B from the supply earth to avoid grounded earth loop
effects.
Observe any warning information given in the software.
PC Configuration steps
