3.1.3 Front Panel Configuration
The IQ plus 710 indicator can be conÞgured using a series of menus accessed through the indicator front panel
when the indicator is in setup mode. Table 3-1 summarizes the functions of each of the main menus.
Four front panel keys are used as directional keys to navigate through the menus in setup mode (see Figure 3-2).
The UNITS ( ) and PRINT ( ) keys scroll left and right (horizontally) on the same menu level; ZERO ( ) and
GROSS/NET ( ) move up and down (vertically) to different menu levels. The TARE key ( ) serves as an Enter
key for selecting parameter values within the menus. A label over each of these keys identiÞes the direction
provided by the key when navigating through the setup menus.
When moving through values below the first menu level, press to return to the level
above. Press or to move to the next parameter on the level above.
To select a parameter, press or to scroll left or To change a parameter value, scroll left or right to

SETPTS Menu
Parameter Choices Description
HYSTER number GROSSSP, NETSP, and RELSP setpoint types: Specifies a band around the setpoint
value that must be exceeded before the setpoint, once off, can trip on again.
PREACT OFF GROSSSP, NETSP, and RELSP setpoint types: Allows the digital output associated
ON with a setpoint to shut off before the setpoint is satisfied to allow for material in
LEARN suspension.
The ON value adjusts the setpoint trip value up or down (depending on the TRIP
parameter setting) from the setpoint value.
The LEARN value can be used to automatically adjust the preact value after each
batch. LEARN compares the actual weight at standstill to the target setpoint value,
then adjusts the preact by half of the difference after each batch.
PREVAL number GROSSSP, NETSP, and RELSP setpoint types: Specifies the preact value for
setpoints with PREACT set to ON or LEARN. Depending on the TRIP setting
specified for the setpoint, the setpoint trip value is adjusted up or down by the preact
value.
RELNUM 1–20 RELSP setpoints: Specifies the number of the relative setpoint. The target weight for
this setpoint is:
• For +RELSP, the value of the relative setpoint plus the value (VALUE parameter) of
this setpoint
• For –RELSP, the value of the relative setpoint minus the value of this setpoint
• For %RELSP, the percentage (specified on the VALUE parameter for this setpoint)
of the relative setpoint
BATCH OFF GROSSSP, NETSP, and RELSP setpoint types: Specifies whether the setpoint is
ON used as a batch (ON) or continuous (OFF) setpoint.
PSHACCM OFF GROSSSP, NETSP, RELSP, PAUSE, DELAY, and WAITSS setpoint types: Specify ON
ON to update the accumulator and perform a print operation when the setpoint is
ONQUIET satisfied. Specify ONQUIET to update the accumulator without printing.

5.1.6 Batching Control Commands
The commands listed below provide batching control through the EDP port.
BATSTART
If the BATRUN digital input is active (low) or not assigned, the BATSTART command can be used to start
the batch program.
BATRESET
Stops the program and resets the batch program to the Þrst batch step. Run the BATRESET command after
making changes to the batch conÞguration.
BATPAUSE
Stops the batch program at the current step. All digital outputs set on by the current step are set off. The
BATSTRT DIGIN, BATSTART EDP command, or a macro conÞgured with STRTBAT=ON can be used to
restart the batch program at the current step.
BATSTATUS
The BATSTATUS command is used to check the current status of various setpoint and batching conditions.
BATSTATUS returns 14 bytes of status data as described in Table 5-14. BATSTATUS is principally used to
provide status information to a controlling batch program when using the Remote I/O Interface option.
Status information returned in bytes 3Ð12 is coded as ASCII characters @ (hex 40) through O (hex 4F);
only the low order bits of these characters are signiÞcant. Table 5-14 shows the low order bit assignments
for bytes 3Ð12. Use Table 5-15 on page 47 to interpret the status of the low order bits for a given ASCII
character.

6.0 Print Formatting
The IQ plus 710 provides seven print formats that determine the format of the printed output when the PRINT key
is pressed or when a KPRINT EDP command is received. Supported print formats are: GFMT, NFMT, EDPFMT,
TRWIN, TRWOUT, and SPFMT. A header format, HDRFMT, allows speciÞcation of up to 300 characters of
ticket header information. The contents of the HDRFMT format can be inserted into any other ticket format
using the <AE> formatting command.
The particular ticket format used for a given print operation depends on the indicator conÞguration (see Table 6-2
on page 49).
Each print format can be customized to include up to 300 characters of information, such as company name and
address, on printed tickets. You can use the indicator front panel (PFORMT menu), EDP commands, or the
Revolutionª conÞguration utility to customize the print formats.

NOTES:
Gross, net, and tare weights, SV1 setpoint weight are 9 digits in length, including sign (10 digits with decimal point), followed by
a space and a two-digit units identifier. Total field length with units identifier is 12 (or 13) characters.
TR1, TR2, and TR3 truck ticket weight data includes keywords INBOUND, KEYED, RECALLED, as necessary.
ID and consecutive number (CN) fields are 1–7 characters in length, as required.
ID numbers included in the print format string (<ID> command) must be set using the UID EDP command.
Ticket header (AE) inserts information specified for the HDRFMT header format.
* If nn is not specified, 1 is assumed. Value must be in the range 1–99.
** After receiving an SU command, the indicator sends unformatted data until the next SU command is received. Unformatted
data omits decimal points, leading and trailing characters.

8.0 Setpoints
The IQ plus 710 indicator provides twenty programmable setpoints for control of both indicator and external
equipment functions. Setpoints are conÞgured to trip based on speciÞed conditions; tripping the setpoint can be
used to request indicator functions (print, tare, accumulate) or to change the state of a digital output controlling
external equipment.
Figure 8-1 shows the general structure of the SETPTS menu. See Section 3.2.7 on page 28 for a detailed
description of the SETPTS menu. The eighteen setpoint kinds are described in Table 8-1 on page 55.

Kind Description Batch Continuous
CONCUR Allows a digital output to remain active over a specified portion of the batch Ö
sequence. Two types of concur setpoints can be configured:
Type 1 (VALUE=0): The digital output associated with this setpoint becomes
active when the START setpoint becomes the current batch step and remains
active until the END setpoint becomes the current batch step.
Type 2 (VALUE > 0): If a non-zero value is specified for the VALUE parameter, that
value represents the timer, in tenths of a second, for this setpoint. The digital
output associated with this setpoint becomes active when the START setpoint
becomes the current batch step and remains active until the timer expires.
NOTE: If more than one concurrent setpoint is configured, each must be
assigned to a different digital output.
