There are two ways to set a target weight:

l Weigh the target object - If you use this method the acceptable weight will
be the actual weight of the target sample ± a predefined range (default is ±1
division).
l Key in upper and lower weight limits - If you use this method the
acceptable weight is any weight which falls between the upper and lower
limits.
Each of these is explained below.

The checkweighing annunciators are based off of net weight so if a tare is active only
the net weight is considered for checkweighing. If there is no tare, gross weight is
used as the basis for the annunciators.

3.4.6 Setpoint operation in the checkweighing application

Inside the Gross Zero Band = All outputs and annunciators are off.

Under Target or Below Low Accept Weight = SP1 annunciator and Output 1 are on.

Inside Target = SP2 annunciator and Output 2 are on.

Over Target or Above Upper Accept Weight = SP3 annunciator and Output 3 are on.

Outputs have to be enabled (see Service manual).

Contact AWTX technical support for information about setpoint use with battery
operated scales.

Outputs can be set as latched or unlatched in a password protected menu.

If outputs are unlatched The annunciators and outputs follow the status of
the bargraph except in gross zero band.

If outputs are latched The annunciators’ and outputs’ status is

determined by where the first stable weight
occurs after an item is placed on the scale. The
latched annunciator and output is reset OFF only
when weight returns inside the gross zero band.

3.5 Batching application

This section applies if your indicator has the Batching application active.

3.5.1 SELECT key default function

In the Batching application you can view the gross, net and tare display values by
repeatedly pressing SELECT.

3.5.2 Special key functions

The following keys have an extra function in this application:

START Press START to start or resume a batch operation.

STOP Press STOP to pause a batch operation.

Press STOP a second time in succession to abort the batch operation.

F1 F1 acts as a START and a STOP key on successive presses.

The Batch application has added selections for Preact values (1-3) in the Setpoint
menu, shown below:

Press SETUP

Setpnt

out1 out2 out3 Preact1 Preact2 Preact3

Key in Key in Key in Key in Key in Key in

setpoint setpoint setpoint preact preact preact
value value value value value value

Setpoint or Preact values can be either positive or negative, up to or equal to scale

capacity. See Entering a negative number on page 14 on how to enter negative values.

PREACT definition - A preact is the amount of material in free fall.

For example: You would like 1000 lbs of material added to a scale but when the
supply valve closes you always end up with a final weight that is 120 lbs over the
desired amount.

To correct this, set a preact of 120 lbs. This causes the setpoint controlling the
material to stop sooner and allows the material in free fall to be accounted for in the
final weight.

In Discharge or Negative fill applications using manual preact, the preact weight will
typically be entered as a negative value.

ZM305 Standard Indicator User Instructions 29

Indicator applications

3.5.3 Batching operation

Batching allows the indicator to control up to three motors, timers, augers, gates, etc.
using the three outputs for the purpose of making batches based on weight.

There are four types of batching operation:

l 2-speed single ingredient

l Ingredient filling (up to three ingredients)
l Independent setpoints filling
l Fill/discharge operation
Other parameters, that are set in a password protected menu, affect the batching
operation.

The bargraph will sequentially light up to show from 0 to 100% of the batch weight in
all types of batching except the independent setpoints.

3.5.4 2-Speed filling

2-Speed is for a single ingredient with a dual speed filling control (Fast/Slow), typically
a valve or hopper gate that can be full open, partially open or closed. When the fill starts
both SP1 and SP2 are turned on (outputs activated) which should set the dual speed
control to full open (Fast speed). When the Out 1 value is reached SP1 and Output 1
are turned off and this should set the dual speed control to partial open condition (Slow
speed). When Out 2 value is reached SP2 and Output 2 are turned off to close the
control device and complete the fill. SP3 and Output 3 can be used as a Batch Cycle
Active indicator.

1. Press SETUP or press and hold SELECT to access the setpoint editor.

2. Set Out1 to the fast fill value and Out 2 to the slow fill value.

Example: To fill a product to 100 lb with the last 5 lb on slow fill: Out 1 should be set to
95 and Out 2 should be set to 100.

3. To start or restart the 2-speed filling process, press START or F1.

4. To stop the filling process, press STOP or F1. (F1 toggles the process on and
off.)

3.5.5 Ingredient filling

Ingredient filling is for batching up to 3 different ingredients controlled by Out 1, 2 and
3 values. If Out 2 value is 0 then it operates as a single ingredient filler. If Out 3 value
is 0 then it operates as 2 ingredient batcher.

1. Press SETUP or press and hold SELECT to access the setpoint editor.

2. Set Out1 to the ingredient 1 value, Out 2 to the ingredient 2 value and Out 3 to
the ingredient 3 value. See more details on Gross or Net weight batching in
Notes on batching on page 75.

 3.5 Batching application

3. To start or restart the batching process, press START or F1.

4. To stop the batching process, press STOP or F1. (F1 toggles the process on
and off.)

3.5.6 Independent setpoints

Independent Setpoint works like the general weighing mode setpoints with the addition
of start/stop controls. You can also do negative weight/discharge using this mode.

1. Press SETUP or press and hold SELECT to access the setpoint editor.

2. Set Out1, Out 2 and Out 3 values.

3. To start or restart the setpoints, press START or F1.

4. To stop the process, press STOP or F1. (F1 toggles the process on and off.)

3.5.7 Fill/Discharge
Fill/Discharge mode is typically used for applications that use negative filling to
dispense a smaller amount of product from a large vessel, tank or hopper type scale.
The vessel (tank or hopper) is filled to a set gross weight and then multiple operations
of filling via negative amount of weight into bags or containers can be completed before
the vessel (tank or hopper) requires a recharge or refill.

Fill Out 1 is assigned as the gross fill amount for the vessel (tank or
hopper) and START or F1 key starts the fill. The fill is based only
on gross weight. If you have Out 1 set to 2000 and the scale
already has 500 lb remaining, the Output 1 will cutoff (and
annunciator SP1 turns off) when the additional 1500 is added for
a total gross of 2000 lb.

Discharge Out 2 is assigned as the discharge fill amount (negative weight)

with the TARE key used to initiate the discharge cycle. The scale
will tare prior to activating Output 2 (SP2 annunciator will light). An
operator can perform multiple discharge operations. When the
vessel gross weight is low, perform a refill.

1. Press SETUP or press and hold SELECT to access the setpoint editor.

2. Set Out1 to the gross fill weight in the vessel or container. Set Out 2 to the
weight of the product to be discharged into smaller bags or containers.

3. To start or restart the large vessel fill process, press START or F1.

4. To stop the large vessel filling process, press STOP or F1.

5. Press TARE to start the bag filling process.

6. To stop bag filling process, press STOP or TARE.

Preact can be used to compensate for product weight that continues to

fill into the bag or container after the setpoint output turns off and before
the final weight stabilizes. If a preact value is automatically calculated or
manually entered, the actual cutoff weight will equal the entered setpoint
value minus the preact value.

PrEAct has three choices: Manual, Auto, or cLEAr. Each is explained

below:

Manual When Manual, the preact values entered in the SETPNT

submenu for PREACT 1, 2 and 3 are used.

Auto When set to Auto, preact is automatically calculated. The

amount of compensation is calculated based on the average
variance between the entered setpoint value and the actual
fill weights recorded during the most recent batch cycles.
Auto Preact is only available in certain Batch Types as
noted in their descriptions. Calculated Preact values can be
viewed in the SETPNT submenu for PREACT 1, 2 and 3.

cLEAr When cLEAr is selected, the current preact values will be

set to 0. If PrEAct was set to Auto, a new set of
compensation values will be calculated on continuing
batches. If preact was set to Manual, then preact will be

7.5.3 Notes on batching

2 Speed
MODE setting does not apply to 2 SPEED.

If DISP is set to NET, an autotare will occur prior to the start of the fill.

If DISP is set to GROSS, no autotare will occur and the fill cutoffs are based on
actual Gross weight.

PREACT, if used, only affects the cutoff value of Out 2. See details of PREACT
below.

If NEG FILL is set to YES, then DISP should be set to NET so that an autotare
occurs prior to start and the cutoffs will be based on negative entered values for
Out 1 and Out 2.

SP3 and Output 3 are used as the Active Batch Cycle indicator in 2 Speed filling

Ingredient

If the START button is pressed during the batch cycle, the current ingredient fill will be
terminated and the batch cycle will continue to the next ingredient fill.

If MODE is set to AUTO, the batch process will continue until the final ingredient
is completed. Between each ingredient there will be a slight delay to allow for
motion, final weight and preact calculations.

If MODE is set to MANUAL, this requires that you press F1 or START between
each ingredient to complete the fill cycle.

If MODE is set to MANUAL and DISP is set to NET, then you must also press
TARE between each ingredient before pressing START to fill the next ingredient.

ZM305 Standard Indicator User Instructions 75

Supervisor menu

If MODE is set to AUTO and DISP is set to NET, an autotare will occur prior to
each ingredient and the Out 1, 2 and 3 fill weights will be based on Net weight.

If DISP is set to GROSS, no autotare will occur and the Out 1, 2 and 3 fill weights
would be based on the Gross weight of the accumulated ingredients. If Ingredient
1 amount is 10, Ingredient 2 amount is 20 and ingredient 3 amount is 30 then you
would enter Out 1 = 10, Out 2 = 30 (10 + 20) and Out 3 = 60 (10 + 20 + 30).
Output cutoffs are based on the actual displayed Gross weight so if inaccurate
amounts of ingredient are experienced during the batch then it may affect the
amount of each subsequent ingredient that is added.

If PREACT is set to AUTO, then it will be calculated for each ingredient to adjust
the cutoff weight accordingly.

If NEG FILL is set to YES, it will only operate for a single ingredient with OUT 1
used for discharge filling based on negative weight.

Independent Setpoints
Out 1, 2 and 3 values operate the Outputs independently. Press F1 or START for
initial start.

MODE setting does not apply to INDEPENDENT setpoints.

If DISP is set to NET, this uses net weight and if DISP is set to GROSS, this uses
gross weight for cutoff value

Auto PREACT is not available in INDEPENDENT filling.

If NEG FILL is set to YES, this allows operation of Out 1, 2 and 3 values in
negative weight mode.

Fill/Discharge
MODE setting does not apply to Fill/Discharge

If DISP is set to NET, the display will remain in net weight mode after the
discharge cycle.

If DISP is set to GROSS, the display will switch to gross weight mode after the
discharge cycle.

If PREACT is set to AUTO it only applies during the Out 2 discharge cycle.

NEG FILL setting does not apply to Fill/Discharge
