Setting Up XBF-LD02S
XG5000 is used to configure the XBF-LD02S in a project.
-
Load cell calibration can be done from XG5000 Special Module Monitoring Window or from a user program.
-
XBF-LD02S works with 4 wire and 6 wire load cells.
-
Up to 4 load cells can be connected in parallel per channel.
-
Maximum input load cell rating is 6.0 mV/V and the load cell applied voltage is 5V.
Definition of Terms
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Load cell | A sensor that converts weight into an electrical signal by measuring the strain in the load cell. |
| Sensitivity (mV/V) | Load cell output voltage (mV) per load cell applied voltage (V). |
| Remote Sensing Method | Load cell voltage error due to a change in the cable resistance value from temperature changes. |
| Rated Load | Maximum weight value that can be measured by the load cell. |
| Gain drift | Gain variation caused by temperature. |
| Zero drift | Zero variation caused by temperature. |
| Gross Weight | Value of the total weight applied to the load cell, including tare weight of containers, structures, and contents. |
| Net weight | Weight of contents calculated by removing the tare weight from the total weight. |
| Maximum weight | Maximum weight value to be applied to the system within range of the load cell rated load. |
| Standard weight | Standard weight value to be applied when the user performs a calibration operation within the maximum weight range. |
| Free Fall Compensation | An algorithm that compensates for the difference between actual set weight value and the weight value contained in a package due to the free fall that occurs when an object is put into devices such as a hopper. |
| Span Calibration | Calibration performed by measuring the zero and span between the minimum and maximum weight values. |
