The key takeaways are that the FBs-1LC and FBs-2LC modules are analog input modules for FATEK PLCs that support one or two channel load cell inputs for weight measurement. They provide functions like average sampling and filtering to improve measurement accuracy.

The main components and specifications of the FBs-1LC/FBs-2LC modules include the number of channels, A/D converter type, resolution, I/O points occupied, conversion rates, non-linearity, drift, excitation voltage, sensitivity, software filter, isolation, indicators, power supply requirements, and dimensions.

The steps to configure and use the load cell modules include connecting the modules to the PLC, using I/O configuration to set the configuration table address and registers, and reading the measurement values from the assigned registers.

Load Cell Input Module

FBs-1LC / FBs-2LC is one of the analog input modules of FATEK FBs series PLC. It
supports one / two channel of load cell input for weight measurement.
The conversion result is represented by a signed 16 bit integer value. In order to
filter out the field noise imposed on the signal, it also provides the average of sample
input function.
Note: 1. The supporting of I/O configuration for FBs-1LC/2LC module is available only
for PLC OS V4.71 and Winproladder V3.22 or later version.
2. For those early applications which do not use I/O configuration to work with
1LC module can still work properly provided that no additional FBs-2LC module
control is required.

2 The Procedures of Using FBs-PLC Load Cell Module


Start

Connects Load Cell Modules to the expansion interface


on PLC in series and connects an external 24VDC source
and load cell measure input wires.

Execute the WinProladder and configure the load cell


configuration table address, the register address, and
working register in load cell configuration windows,
then you can read the weight measurement value form
register directly.

3 The Procedures of Configure the Load Cell Measurement


Click the item I/O Configuration which in Project Windows:
Project
I/O Configuration
SelectLC Configuration
Once the setting page displayed, is able to measure the load cell module.

1.Starting register of configuration table


Assign a starting register value to store the load cell configuration table,
there will allow the following inputs:
RXXXX or DXXXX
The configuration table only occupies 4+N of registers, where N is the
number of load cell modules.
As shown in the above example, R5000~ R5005 stores the load cell
configuration table.
2.Starting register of reading/control register
Please input the starting register number of a block register that were
allocated for receiving the measurement value and control parameters for
load cell
There will allow the following inputs, RXXXX or DXXXX
one channel occupies 16 register.
As shown in the above example, channel 1 used R0 ~ R15.
3.Starting register of working register
Assign a starting registers to reserve the working registers, there will allow
the following inputs RXXXX or DXXXX.
The load cell measurement register occupies (Nx4)+5 registers, where N is
the number of load cell modules.
As shown in the above example, D0~D12 are the working registers.
Notes: The above three settings can be used in all Load Cell modules.
Load cell module installation information and setup
4.Module #1 ~ #16
Display the name of the installed module and the analog starting address
of its own, there are the following modules.
1

FBs-1LC (1 channel of load cell module)


2

FBs-2LC (2 channels of load cell module)


5.Span Ch0# / Ch1#Assign the following selection of the measurement range:
0~10mV(2mV/V), 0~25mV(5mV/V), 0~50mV(10mV/V),
0~100mV(20mV/V)
6.Scan RateAssign the scan rate of reading value, there are two selections:

FBs-1LC has 5 / 10 / 25 / 30 / 60 / 80 Hz can be assigned


FBs-2LC has 1 / 3 / 5 / 8 Hz can be assigned

7.Times of AverageAssign the times of average for load cell measure,


unbalanced average, 2 times the average, 4 times the
average, and 8 times of the average can be assigned.

Each channel occupies 16 registers.


Note
1. Only the R+2R+3R+4 register are set by user, the other register are set by system
2. R+3
Bit 0 = 1, set current measurement value as zero reference
Bit 1 = 1, for SPAN. set current measurement value minus zero reference value as
high reference value which corresponding to the weight value set in R+2
3. User can convert the engineering value on their own with reference the value in
R+2,R+6 register if necessary.

4. Error indication includes


high reference engineering value(R+2) or SPAN(R+6) is zero or negative
5. Auto zeroing threshold This value confines the zero value drift tolerance region. If the zero drift value falls in
this region, the zero drift will be compensated.
Set this value to zero will disable the auto zeroing function.
6. D4052 delay time for auto zeroing activation , range from 1000 ~ 5000 (mS),
default is 3000 (mS).

5 Description of Related Registers for Load Cell Measurement


Installation Status of Load Cell
R4016 B0=1 means that the 1st channel is installed

B15=1 means that the 15th channel is installed


(the default of R4016 is FFFFH)
R4017 B0=1 means that the 16th channel is installed

B15=1 means that the 31th channel is installed


(the default of R4017 is FFFFH)
When the load cell is installed (the corresponding bit must be 1), the system
will perform the line broken detection. If there is line broken happened, the
broken value -32760 will be displayed.
When the load cell is not installed (the corresponding bit must be 0), the
system will not perform the line broken detection. The broken value will be
0.
Depends on the users installation, the ladder program may control the
corresponding bit of R4016 and R4017 to perform or not perform the line
broken detection.

6 I/O Addressing of Load Cell Module


By the time domain multiplexing design method, each load cell module occupies
1 point of input register and 8 points of digital output for I/O addressing. For
correct I/O access, the I/O addressing of extension modules following the load cell
module must be added the I/O quantity which the corresponding module should
have. The WinProladder provides an easy and convenient way to calculate the I/O
address for the extension modules through the on-line I/O Numbering operation.
