WEIGHING OPERATIONS (WEIGHBRIDGE)
This section contains information on operating procedures for the LD 5218 controller, equipped with software for
weighbridge application.
The weighing operations are performed via weighing dialogues that involve identification of the weighing,
administrative data related to the weighing, and printing of the weighing protocol. The terminals software is
based on a First and Second weighing principle. Known vehicles with a fixed tare weight for which there is a
need for second weighing only maybe programmed in the system via the VFILE menu.
For a weight transfer to occur from the scale to memory or printer the terminal checks that the no-motion
condition is satisfied. If it takes too long the terminal will ask whether to retry or abort.
If enabled in set-up the terminal may check that the weight on the scale is greater than the minimum weighing
capacity of the indicator.
4.1
FIRST WEIGHING
When a vehicle enters the weighbridge for the first time it undergoes a First Weighing, where by the vehicle id,
product or customer related data relevant to the weighing are typed in the terminal.
The first weighing dialogue maybe initiated by pressing key L when the terminal is in the standby mode.
1.
Wait until no-motion indicator is on, then press L key.
2.
The displays shows VEHICLE: briefly, and the cursor blinks. Enter the vehicle plate number
(max 16 alphanumeric characters).
3.
The displays shows CLIENT: briefly, and the cursor blinks. Enter the relevant data
4.
The displays shows PRODUCT: briefly, and the cursor blinks. Enter the relevant data
5.
Proceed with entry of reference codes if any.
6.
When all entries are completed a first weighing record is constructed including the weight and is stored
in the vehicle file. A weighing ticket may optionally be printed, and/or the record may be transmitted to
a host computer. An example of the default ticket is shown below:
DATE:16-05-00 15:46 N:00125
1st WEIGHT :<15000>kg
VEHICLE : AB1234
CLIENT
: SMITH
PRODUCT : SAND BB
MF:054
The weight value appearing in brackets is the actual measured weight.

MF is the key to the memory location where the weight is stored and can be used to retrieve the first weight
during a second weighing. Display returns to weight indication.
NOTE : 1.
2.
While printing of weighing ticket the message PRINT appears on the display.
If E 20:PRN NOT RDY is displayed check that the printer is ON-LINE.
Pressing CE the message RETRY? AE=Y CE=N is displayed.
Press Z key to retry or C to abort.

8.2 PIN - PASSWORD PROTECTION SYSTEM (PIN)

To safeguard against accidental system parameter alteration and/or operational data erasure, a two level
password system has been implemented.
A system password (PIN SYS) that allows entry to all protected operations (SYSTEM submenu) and a user
password that allows delete and date edit operations.
LD 5218 units are shipped with both password not active i.e. 000000. Once initialised, the password will be
required before entry to protected operations is permitted.
To activate / change the passwords use the menu SYSTEM \ PIN. Select PIN SYS for the service password, or
PIN OPER for the user password. The PIN SYS is of higher order and must be activated before the
OPERATOR PIN.
PASSWORD CHANGE / INITIALISATION
The display shows NEW CODE :
. Key in the new password followed by AE.
The display shows CONFIRM :
. Key in the same password followed by AE.
The new pin is stored and the display shows PASS briefly.
If the two entries are not the same, FAIL is displayed briefly and the program returns with the old pin remaining
in memory.
The password is saved and activated.
PASSWORD DEACTIVATION
Entering zeros will deactivate the password.
The display shows NEW CODE :
_ . Press 000000 followed by AE.
The display shows CONFIRM :
_ . Press 000000 followed by AE.
WARNING:
Make sure you do not loose the code entered. If the code is lost the unit must be returned to the factory
to initialise the passwords and a fee will be charged.
8.3 PROCESS PARAMETERS (PRP)

These are operational and process parameters that allow configuration of the terminal in the working process
environment. Press d e to scroll trough the parameters.

MAINTENANCE
The unit does not require any routine maintenance. It may be necessary to perform periodic checks of the
calibration of the scale due to mechanical reasons. The frequency of the calibration checks depends on the
application condition and on the required measuring accuracy. It may happen that, in exceptional conditions, the
unit locks on a wrong memory location and it is not possible to restart because the keyboard is not operative.
To restart is necessary to switch the power OFF then ON again.
11.1 SERVICE
-
There are no serviceable parts. The unit must be serviced by trained personnel only. The user may check
loadcell connection and power supply.
LOAD CELLS
Load cells are reliable and very rarely present errors. Check input and output resistance, and resistance
between any terminal and shield. Check Load cell connection and cable.
POWER SUPPLY
Check 9-15VDC power supply & resettable fuse F4 on PCB 801.
SETPOINT OUTPUTS
Check 24VDC power supply & resettable fuse F3 on PCB 801.
LEON ENGINEERING maintains a fully trained staff of field service engineers who provide:
