PRECAUTIONS, Cont.
Care and Cleaning
Electrical Power
The 220 indicator has been designed to operate from 90 to 264 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Note that a
special order is not required for operation at 230 VAC.
On models requiring 230 VAC power, it is the responsibility of the customer to have a qualified
electrician install the proper power cord plug which conforms to national electrical codes and local
codes and ordinances.
The power outlet for the indicator should be on a separate circuit from the distribution panel. This
circuit should be dedicated to the exclusive use of the indicator. The wiring should conform to
national and local electrical codes and ordinances and should be approved by the local inspector
to assure compliance.
To prevent electrical noise interference, make certain all other wall outlets for use with air
conditioning and heating equipment, lighting or other equipment with heavily inductive loads, such
as welders, motors and solenoids are on circuits separate from the indicator. Many of these
disturbances originate within the building itself and can seriously affect the operation of the
instrument. These sources of disturbances must be identified and steps must be taken to prevent
possible adverse effects on the instrument. Examples of available alternatives include isolation
transformers, power regulators, uninterruptible power supplies, or simple line filters.
CAUTION! When in parallel runs, locate Load Cell cables a minimum of 24" away
from all AC wiring.

INSTALLATION, Cont.
Main PCB Jumpers (See Figure No. 7)
J6 - AUTO-ON JUMPER
The AUTO-ON jumper J6, when connected, will cause the indicator to power on automatically
whenever power is applied to the power input connector. If power is lost momentarily and then
reapplied, the indicator will turn on without pressing the ON key. See Figure No. 7 for jumper
location.
J7 - TEST JUMPER
The TEST jumper J7, when connected, will turn the backlight on, disregarding the LIGHT ON=
setting (refer to Setup Review for explanation of LIGHT ON). See Figure No. 7 for jumper location.
J8 - 8V EX JUMPER
The 8V EX jumper J8, when connected, allows the 220 indicator to supply 8 VDC excitation
voltage when a remote (external) 12 VDC battery is used to power the indicator. To operate from
the 12 VDC battery, the load cell excitation voltage MUST be set to 8 VDC (J8 closed). Operating
with the load cell excitation voltage set to 12 VDC will result in an unstable weight display. See
Figure No. 7 for jumper location.
For completely isolated outputs, J10 must be open (positioned on one plug-in pin only or removed)
and the user must provide 5 to 12 VDC to P8 pin 1 (+SRC) and a ground return to the load. The
load must still be 200 ohms or greater. Note that P8 pin 10 (GND/SHLD) is not connected.
For completely isolated inputs, J11 must be open (positioned on one plug-in pin only or removed)
and the user must provide 5 to 12 VDC to P9 pin 1 (+SRC) and a ground return to the switch
connected to P9 pin 2 through 9. Note that P9 pin 10 (GND) is not connected.

When enabled, each time the indicator receives an ETR request (SMA XT command), the current
weight and an internal consecutive transaction number (that can not be modified) will be stored in
memory. The 220 has sufficient memory to create an ETR file that will store up to 7000

ID Storage
The ID Storage feature has been designed to control three different types of transactions and
weighing operations. The first type of transaction assigns a permanent ID string, has a
stored tare weight, and accumulates net weight totals for the ID. The second type assigns a
permanent ID string and accumulates net weight totals for the ID, but doesn't have a permanent
stored weight. The third type temporarily assigns an ID string (while weighing in) and does not
accumulate any net weight totals for the ID.
The first type of permanent transaction is a "single pass" transaction and is used to weigh
loaded containers with a permanent ID string and a previously stored tare weight. The stored
tare weight requires weighing the empty container in advance or if the weight of the empty
container is known, by entering that value as a manual tare weight. The single pass transaction
completes a ticket and accumulates the net weight for the ID associated with the container with
a "one step" weighing operation.
The second type of permanent transaction is a "two pass" transaction and is used to weigh the
loaded container once when it is empty and once when it is loaded. A permanent ID string and
a previously stored zero (0) tare weight is required. In the two pass transaction, the zero tare
weight is replace by the new tare weight after the first pass and returned to zero after the
second pass when the transaction has been completed. The two-pass transaction requires a
"two step" weighing operation. On the first step, the incoming weight will be stored and an
interim ticket will be printed. On the second step, during the outgoing transaction, a complete
ticket will be printed and the net weight for the ID associated with the container will be added to
the accumulator.
The third type is a temporary "two pass" transaction that also requires a "two step" operation.
However, the ID string is only in memory while the container is weighed in and out and the net
weight will not be accumulated. In this type of transaction, on the first pass, the container will be
place on the scale and an ID will be selected either by the operator entering a string in through
the keyboard. The weight will be stored and an interim ticket will be printed. On the second
pass, the ID string is entered and the stored weight is recalled for printing the complete ticket.
After the ticket has printed, the ID number and the stored weight will be removed from memory.

Digital Fill Control
The Digital Fill Control (DFC) feature has been designed to control the filling or discharge of
material automatically. The DFC feature controls relays in an external enclosure and
adds a number of features to the 220 indicator. Those features include:
Start Verification
Pressing the START key changes the display to START=YES to verify you are sure you want to
start the fill operation.
Auto Trim
Auto Trim is a feature that when enabled, will adjust for differences in the preset trim and the
actual trim weight. For example, if the preset SLOW= weight is set at 5000 lbs and the TRIM= is
set at 100 lbs, the cut-off will be at 4900 lbs. If the actual weight of the trim is 50 lbs, the total
weight of the material discharged will be 4950 lbs, not 5000. With Auto Trim enabled, starting
with the next operation, the TRIM= will be adjusted until the 5000 lbs preset weight total is
achieved. Depending on how much difference there is between the programmed trim and the
actual trim, it may take several operations before the full preset weight amount is reached.
Auto Print
This feature, when enabled, allows automatic print of the delivered net or gross weight at the
end of the fill operation.

ANALOG OUTPUT OPTION BOARD
This section describes the installation, setup and calibration of the optional Analog Output option
board. This option consists of both a 0 to 10 volt and 4 to 20 mA analog output.
The Analog Output option board (Cardinal p/n 8200-C210-0A) is a 14-bit (16,383 states) analog
representation of the displayed weight. The maximum load resistance for the current output is 500
ohms. The minimum load resistance for the voltage output is 2K ohms. Connections are made via
a terminal block on the back of the option board. Refer to Figure No. 15 for the connector pin
layout.
The 220 indicator features complete "ranging" for analog output. Users may select a weight range
to be used for a selectable voltage range. This covers all current indicators/users and expands the
capabilities for new applications. The 220 indicator also have auto-detect for option board
installation. When the analog output board is found, additional prompts will be added to Setup.
The main menu adds ANALOG OUT after KEY LOCK OUT. In addition, the calibration sequence
includes the steps necessary to calibrate the analog output.

In order to calibrate the analog output, it is first necessary to enter the Calibration mode by gaining
access to the calibration switch. Refer to the Setup and Calibration section of this manual for
additional information.
The following questions in the ANALOG OUTPUT section apply only if the board is installed.
LOW WT=
Press the ENTER key to show the stored value. This is the value, in weight, which outputs zero
volts (or 4 mA) from the analog output board. All weight below this target will output zero volts (or
4 mA). If the setting is acceptable, press the ENTER key again to save it. Otherwise, using the
numeric keys enter the desired weight value, then press the ENTER key to save it. Allowable
values are: -99999 to 999999.
NOTE! The NET/GROSS key will change the weight sign. i.e. –1000 press 1 0 0 0 NET.
HIGH WT=
Press the ENTER key to show the stored value. This is the value, in weight, which outputs the
maximum selected voltage and current (see VOLTS OUT=). All weights above this value will output
maximum volts from the analog output board. If the setting is acceptable, press the ENTER key
again to save it. Otherwise, using the numeric keys enter the desired weight value, then press the
ENTER key to save it. Allowable values are: 1 to 999999.
NOTE! This weight must be a positive value, up to the capacity of the scale, and above the
LOW WT= value.

ANALOG OUTPUT OPTION BOARD, Cont.
Calibration Of The Analog Output, Cont.
VOLTS OUT=
Press the ENTER key to show the stored value. This is the maximum output value in volts (00.01
to 10.00). All weight values equal to or greater than HIGH WT= will output this value. Note, that if
the scale displays CAPACITY (over capacity), this value is used also. If the setting is acceptable,
press the ENTER key again to save it. Otherwise, using the numeric keys enter the desired, then
press the ENTER key to save it. Allowable values are: 00.01 to 10.00.
NOTE! If the 4 to 20 mA current output is to be used, set VOLTS OUT= to: 10x (max current – 4)
16
ADJ HIIGH
This sets the analog output to VOLTS OUT= level for adjusting the level. Adjustment potentiometers
“pots” (10V and 20 mA) on the option board are used.
• Adjust the 10V pot for the maximum voltage output entered for VOLTS OUT=.
• If the 4 to 20 mA current output is to be used, adjust the 20mA pot for the calculated
maximum current.
Press the ENTER key to proceed to ADJ LOW, or the ASTERISK key to return to the previous
prompt.
ADJ LOW
This sets the analog output to zero for adjusting the level. Adjustment “pots” (10V and 4 mA) on
the option board are used.
Press the ASTERISK key to return to ADJ HIGH, or the ENTER key to return to the SETUP prompt
NOTE! Cycling between ADJ HIGH and ADJ LOW is necessary when adjusting the
current out. This must be repeated until no adjustment is necessary.
