le Scale Interface)'
In "legal for trade" applications, the number of programmed and calibrated scales
must reflect the actual number of physical scales. If the indicator is programmed and calibrated for more weighing
elements than are actually installed, it can display and print values from the unused programmed scale that can be
misinterpreted as valid weights.
If all scales are not displayed simultaneously, the number of scales installed in the system can be verified by pressing in the
"ESCAPE" key for approximately five seconds, key in the user code 111, and press "ENTER," From the user menu press
the "SELECT" key, followed by the "SCALE" key. At this point enter the active scale (1-5) to be selected. Press "EXIT,"
then "EXIT" again. The number of the scale selected will appear as "SCL" plus the number entered. If the scale number
selected is not actually installed, the scale will return to the normal weighing mode of the previous scale,
Test Conditions: This certificate supersedes Certificate of Conformance Number 95-008A2 and is issued to include
wireless (RF) communication equipment and user interface equipment to the WI-130 SimulCast. The User interface
equipment is used to collect the weight information that is transmitted from the indicator and stored for reporting and
sorting purposes. The RF communications equipment will replace the RS232 communications cables to printers,
computers and other office equipment. Two indicators were configured to transmit weight over the RS232 serial ports.
Demonstration I was connected to an RM200 WiFi radio, demonstration 2 was connected to a BluePort Bluetooth module.
Both indicators were configured in this manner. A laptop computer was connected to I BluePlug module to collect the data
from the two indicators. It was also connected to 2 RM200 radios on the laptop to test the communications for the WiFi
enabled indicators. Multiple tests were observed to ensure that the weight information was received properly from each
radio and to ensure that the two systems would not interfere with each other. A CV60 and t700 user interfaces were
connected and they demonstrated potential functionality. Multiple tests were observed to ensure that the weight
information was received properly. The Radio will not be battery powered. Its power comes from the device that it is
connected to. Power was removed from the radio during a test and then the antenna was removed with the radio shielded,
which also simulated us loosing communications. In both cases, the indicating element displayed "no comm." No other
testing was deemed necessary at this time, The previous test conditions are listed below for reference. No other testing was
deemed necessary at this time. The previous test conditions are listed below for reference.
Certificate of Conformance Number 95-008A2: This Certificate supersedes Certificate of Conformance No, 95-008A1
and is issued to include Model WI-130 Simulcast. Model WI-130 Simulcast is similar to Model WI-130, but the WI-I 30
Simulcast has a smaller case, utilizes smaller printed circuit boards, and operates on 10-72VDC power.
The emphasis of this evaluation was on device design, operation, and compliance with influence factors. The Model WI-
130 Simulcast was interfaced with a load cell simulator and tested for accuracy over a temperature range of -10 °C to 40
°C. The device was tested over a voltage range of 9,4 VDC (voltage at which device blanked) to 79.2 VDC. Additionally,
the indicator was interfaced to a Weigh-Tronix Model BS-2020 weighing element to verify compliance with zero, zone of
uncertainty, and motion detection requirements. The previous test conditions are listed below for reference.
