Measuring Type
Determines the operation of the weighing device. In weighing devices;
“e”: is referred as the scale interval It is the difference between two subsequent indications.
There may be a signle "e" division as well as more than one partitions. The options related to this
parameter are;

1) Single Partition
2) Multi Interval
3) Multi Partition

Page 90
ECI Multi Functional Weighing Controller Operating Manual

Single Partition: The weighing device with a single scale interval and capacity.
Multi Interval: In this operation there are 3 different scale intervals and
capacities. There is a different scale interval in each capacity range;
Weight < LowerZoneLimit + 9e1 e1 (the first zone scale interval)
LowerZoneLimit + 9e1 < Weight < UpperZoneLimit + 9e2 e2 = 2*e1
(the second zone scale interval)
UpperZoneLimit + 9e1 < Weight < Capacity + 9e3  e3 = 2*e2 (the
third zone scale interval)
"e1" scale interval is determined with Resolution parameter. e2 and e3
are determined automatically. If the respective zone capacity +9e is
observed when the weight is increased, it is proceeded to the next
scale interval. When the weight is decreasing, it is decreased to the
previous scale interval when it is shifted from the upmost zone to the
lowest one or from the lower zone to the 1. zone. The scale interval can
be the multiples of 1,2 and 5. For example when e1=2, e2=2*e1=2*2=4 and calculated as 5 which is the next scale
interval.

Page 91
ECI Multi Functional Weighing Controller Operating Manual

Multi Partition: In this operation there are 3 different scale intervals

and capacities. There is a different scale interval in each capacity
range;
e1 (first zone scale interval): is determined with Resolution
parameter
e2 = 2*e1 (the second zone scale interval): is determined
automatically
e3 = 2*e2 (the third zone scale interval): is determined automatically
If the respective zone capacity +9e is observed when the weight is
increased, it is proceeded to the next scale interval. However, the
scale interval does not change when shifting from the 3. zone to the
2. one or from the 2. zone to the 1. one when the weight is
decreasing. It is shifted to e1 when the weight is below 0,5 e(i).
The scale interval can be the multiples of 1,2 and 5. For example when e1=2, e2=2*e1=2*2=4 and calculated as 5
which is the next scale interval. It is shifted to 3 partition operation mode when the measuring type is selected as "Multi
Interval" or "Multi Partition". In such case, following menus are displayed respectively in order to determine the upper
and lower Zone limits.In multi partition systems Capacity>UpperZoneLimit>LowerZoneLimit must be entered.

Page 192
ECI Multi Functional Weighing Controller Operating Manual

Scale capacity
It is the maximum weight value determined for the
batching. If the total quantity intended to be batched is
greater than the "Scale Capacity", more than one filling is
made by dividing as multipliers of the Scale Capacity.
It is also used as the limit of the reservoir that is filled.
Thus, no filling with the quantity more than the value
stated in this parameter will be made to the scale.

Auto Shot
The weight value hang after the valve is closed is
calculated automatically. When this parameter is selected
"On" the error made on the target quantity of the silo is
corrected automatically.
The options are;
1) Off: Error correction is made manually
2) On: Error correction is made automatically.

Page 193
ECI Multi Functional Weighing Controller Operating Manual

Zero Stripe
During the discharge, it is the value where it is
determined that the discharge operation is over. When
the weight value reduces under this quantity, the
discharge operation is considered done. It is used for the
material stuck to the scale.

RecipeTolerance
It is the maximum error allowed per silo. If this value is
exceeded, the device gives error and related relay output
is activated. It is valid for all silos in the recipe. In case of
false filling from any silo, the error output is activated. If
no error signal is wanted, it must be entered as 0
(deactivated).

Page 194
ECI Multi Functional Weighing Controller Operating Manual

RecipeComp
In batches made subsequently, it determines whether the
error made in previous batches are compensated or not.

Time Settings
This menu is an ordered type menu where the timing settings are made for the batching program. The sub-
menus are StartDelay,Stability.Delay and FillingTimeLapse.

StartDelay
It determines how much time after pressing the key
will the filling operations start and also the transition
period between the silos.

Page 195
ECI Multi Functional Weighing Controller Operating Manual

StabillityDelay
The weighing values during the period indicated in this
parameter are not taken into account and the device does
not change its state in order to prevent the
mismeasurements resulting from the vibration just after
the start of the quick filling and shifting from the quick
filling to the slow one. (Default value is 0 sec)

FillingTimeLapse
It is the maximum period that lapses during which the
weight value does not change at least 10*0 (Resolution)
during batching. The device gives error if this period is
exceeded. If no material is received although the material
intake has started, it is used for giving warning. If no error
signal is wanted, it must be entered as 0 sec
(deactivated).

NOTE: As a matter of course, when a value is written to the EEPROM section, only the EEPROM
daat changes. There are two ways to update the RAM values with the EEPROM values;
1-) It is necessary to disconnect, then connect the power.
2-) 0x0A Command must be executed over Modbus. (0x0A: update parameters from EEPROM)
