1 General Information
Before using i•FeedGood M it is important to read the information
provided in this User Guide to avoid seriously harming yourself or
damaging the scale.
Note: for further information, contact your Distributor or send a
support request to the address support@labelgroup.com.
Important safety standards

• Carefully read all the documentation attached to the scale.
• Comply with all the instructions and precautions contained
in this User Guide.
• Only qualified personnel are authorised to assemble and
commission this equipment.
• Before commissioning the scale, analyse the risks which
could arise from its use, especially regarding personal
safety and that of the plants.
• Disconnect the connection cables when needing to weld
the mixing wagon.
To keep the welding current from crossing the load cells,
short circuit the metal body of the load cells with a
sufficiently large cable and place the earth clamp as close
to the welding point as possible.
• Do not expose the scale into contact with aggressive
chemicals or solvents that can affect plastic materials or
corrode metal parts.

Disconnect the power cable in the following situations:
• If the connection cables or connectors are worn or
damaged.
• If there is any liquid inside the scale, including
condensation.
• If the scale case is damaged or broken.
• If the vehicle battery needs to be recharged.
This symbol indicates that, based on local laws and

standards, the product must be disposed of separately from
household waste. When the product can no longer be used, it
must be brought to the collection spot established by local
authorities. Check local standards for further information
regarding waste of electronic products.
Mechanical installation
i•FeedGood M must be installed using the fixing system included
in the supply. It must be installed on a flat, stable and vibration-
free surface. Do not install or place the scale near heat sources or
strong magnetic fields (motors, magnets, etc.).
6 | i•FeedGood M-1515 • User Guide

Connections
i•FeedGood M is connected via two MS/MIL-C5015 series
connectors, two M12 series connectors and a C16 series
connector.
Note: before performing the connections, make sure that the
scale and accessories are off.
The POWER/ALARM connector is where power supply and the

alarm device are connected. It is set up for connection of the
Power and Alarm Cable which can be identified by the red tag.
The SENSOR connector is where the load cells are connected. It

is set up for connection of the Load Cells Extension Cable
identified by the blue tag.
Further connectors could be present depending on the options

purchased. See the documentation supplied together with the
options and accessories for the connections.

Replacing the fuse
Before replacing a fuse, it is recommended to find the probable
causes which caused it to blow.
We also recommend disconnecting all cables before opening the
box.
To replace the fuse, proceed as follows:

1. Get a 1,6 Amp, 5x20mm time-delay fuse.
If the scale is supplied with the OUT or HEATER connector,
or at the scale are connected more than 2 L-Link Remote
Terminal, get an 6,3 Amp, 5x20mm fast-acting fuse.
2. Using a Phillips N. 1 screwdriver, remove the 13 fixing screws
from the rear cover.
3. Open the rear cover.
4. Identify the fuse holder on the circuit board (see photo 1).
5. Remove the fuse holder cap and replace the fuse.
6. Put the cap back on to the fuse holder and close the box
making sure not to crush the connection wires.
7. Screw the 13 fixing screws back onto the rear cover.
Photo 1

Maintenance
In order to prevent malfunctioning or failures, it is recommended
to perform the following operations periodically:
• Check that the external power supply system to the scale
works properly, also checking that the connection points
have no oxidization or humidity.
• Check that the load cells have no dents. The possible
presence of rust on the load cell body does not endanger
its operation.
• Check that all parts of the weighing system have no dents
or signs of burns.
• Check that the loaded weight corresponds with the weight
displayed by the scale, loading a weight with a known
value on the mixing wagon.
• Check clamping of all the screws on the parts making up
the weighing system.
• Periodically clean the scale using a moist, soft and down-
free cloth. Never use sprays, abrasives, solvents or sharp
objects which can damage the case.
• Before cleaning the mixing wagon with high pressure
water jets, disconnect the connection cables, remove the
scale from the mixing wagon and protect the connectors of
the connection cables from possible water infiltrations.
Also pay the utmost attention not to spray the load cells,
junction box, alarm devices and other accessories directly
with water.

EC Declaration of Conformity
i•FeedGood M complies with the essential requirements of the
Directive 2004/108/EC on Electromagnetic Compatibility as it
complies with standards EN61326-1:2013, EN14982:2009
(agricultural machinery), ISO13766:2006 (earth-moving
machinery), EN50498:2010 (road vehicles), ISO7637-3:2007.
If i•FeedGood M is not installed and used in strict compliance with

the instructions provided in this User Guide, it could be faulty or
cause the surrounding equipment to malfunction. In any case
there is no guarantee of these failures not occurring in a specific
installation. Should any malfunctioning occur, contact the
Customer Service which can suggest measures to be taken to
eliminate the problems.
Compliance with Directives is only guaranteed when original

accessories and spare parts are used. Any modifications or
interventions to the scale not authorised by the manufacturer in
writing could cancel its conformity to Directives and make it
prohibited for use.

17 Annex C
Error Codes
ERR 1 Overrange Error

The error indicates that the A/D converter is beyond the
Full-Scale.
For further information, consult the "Troubleshooting Guide"
provided in the CD attached to the scale or contact Customer
Service.
ERR 2 Calibration Error

The error indicates that the calculations to determine the
Calibration are incorrect. Press OK to continue. For further
information, contact Customer Service.
ERR 3 Calibration Error

The error indicates that the weight read by the A/D converter is
less than the Zero Scale. Press OK to continue. For further
information, contact Customer Service.
ERR 17 Data Loss

The error indicates that stored data has been lost accidentally.
Press OK to continue. The scale automatically formats
NANDFlash. All the stored data are deleted, the Preferences and
Calibrations will be restored with default values. At the end of
formatting, set the Preferences and execute a Calibration.
For further information, contact Customer Service.

ERR 18 File System damaged
The error indicates that, following a problem with the File System
of NANDFlash, the scale automatically formatted NANDFlash.
Press OK to continue. All the stored data were deleted, the
Preferences and Calibrations were restored with default values.
Set the Preferences and execute a Calibration.
For further information, contact Customer Service.
ERR 21 Maximum Load exceeded

The error indicates that the Total Weight loaded is higher than the
Maximum Load programmed. If the "Maximum Load" Weighing
Preference is programmed, during weighing the scale checks that
the programmed value is not exceeded. If the limit is exceeded,
the display shows “ERR 21” and the message “Max Load
exceeded.”, while the scale activates the Alarm Output
intermittently. To eliminate the error condition, unload excess
weight or press OK. Pressing OK interrupts weighing. Exceeding
the programmed value also causes the "OVERLOAD NR."
displayed in the Statistics to increase.
ERR 25 Total Weight of the Recipe

The error indicates that the Total Weight of the Recipe is higher
than the Maximum Load programmed.
ERR 27 Recipe Execution interrupted

The error indicates that execution of the previous Recipe
interrupted due to a power failure. If you want to resume
execution of the Recipe from exactly where the scale was when it
powered off, press OK, if you do not want to resume execution
press ESC.
ERR 30 Ingredient unloading

The error indicates that an Ingredient has been unloaded.
ERR 34 Group unloading

The error indicates that a Group has been loaded.

ERR 54 Incompatible files version
The error indicates that, following a software update, the Archive
files are no longer compatible with the software version installed.
Press OK to continue. The data stored in the Archives will be
deleted.
ERR 55 Operation failed

The error indicates that the procedure did not finish correctly.
