Omega Speaker Systems LCIC-WIM-BEN manual Tools / General Setpoints

3.3.1.3 Tools / General Setpoints

The LCIC-WIM board has four digital outputs. Each of them may be defined

–through the Tools / General Setpoints – either as a manual output, or as a general setpoint output:

•A manual output is controlled by a user’s command sent from the PC (or another computer). That is, the user sends – either by his own application or by a general RS232 terminal (see section D.3) – commands to turn an output on or off. The user – and not the card – has the initiative to turn an output on or off.

•A general setpoint output is controlled by the card according to user pre-defined criterion. Say, initially the user defined the setpoint as 10 kg, then the card automatically turns the output off/on when the current weight is less/more than 10 kg. The user cannot explicitly turn

an output on or off by a command.

Note – these general setpoints are absolutely different from the setpoints in the Fill mode (section E.4). The general setpoints are inactive in the Fill mode.

In order to configure an output:

•Select output’s Mode as Manual or Setpoint.

•In case you selected ‘Mode: Setpoint’, specify the setpoint value (e.g., 10).

•Click ‘Save to Board’ to validate your new configuration.

•You may turn each manual output on or off.
