5) Installation of System
5.1 Checklist during installation
During installation of the system the following should be checked:
1.
All hardware connections are made as described below.
2.
Setup IP Address etc. using the EEConnect program as described below.
3.
If necessary the EtherNetIP master should be configured to communi-
cate with the 4x50 Ethernet unit using the supplied EDS file.
4.
Set the scaling/resolution of the weight signal by use of SWE.1 as de-
scribed earlier.
5.
Set the desired measurement time by use of SWE.3-SWE.4 as described
earlier.
6.
Select the desired filter by use of SWE.5-SWE.8 as described earlier.
7.
The load cells are mounted mechanically and connected to BNC con-
nectors in the front panel of the 4x50 unit.
8.
The 4x50 Ethernet unit is connected to the EtherNetIP network using
theRS45 Ethernet connector in the front panel.
9.
Power (24VDC) is applied at the 2 pole power connectors in the front
panel of the 4x50 unit as described in the hardware section, and the
EtherNetIP communication is started.
10.Verify that the MS lamp and the NS lamp both end up green.
11.Verify that the TxLC lamp (yellow) is lit (turns on after approx. 5 sec-
onds).
12.Verify that the TxBB lamp (green) are lit (after 10 seconds).
13.Verify that NONE of the 1, 2, 3, 4 or D1 lamps (red) are lit.
14.Verify that the 4x50 Ethernet system unit has found the correct load
cells (LcRegister), and that no load cell errors are indicated (LcSta-
tus(x)).
15.Verify that every load cell gives a signal (LcSignal(x)) by placing a load
directly above each load cell one after the other (possibly with a known
load).
The system is now installed and a zero and fine calibration is made as de-
scribed earlier. Finally verify that the weighing system(s) returns a value cor-
responding to a known actual load.
Note that in the above checklist no consideration has been made on which
functions are implemented on the EtherNetIP master.
