HI-3000 Series 108
Operation and Installation
FULL-SCALE Full scale input as defined by instrument and load cell parameters. Example: 3mV/V
load cell @ 10 volts = 30mV full scale.
GRADUATION SIZE Minimum increment displayed by the instrument
GROSS WEIGHT An overall weight exclusive of tare deductions. Weight of material plus container.
IBC Intermediate Bulk Container
INTERNET The Internet is a system of linked networks that are worldwide in scope and facilitate
data communication services such as remote login, file transfer, electronic mail, the
World Wide Web and newsgroups.
INTRANET An intranet is a private network utilizing Internet-type tools, but available only within
that organization.
KILOGRAMS A unit of mass in the metric system. Equal to 1000 grams or 2.2046 pounds. “kg” rep-
resents kilograms on the display.
LEVELLING The procedure that sets the scale so that a scale platform is exactly horizontal (level).
LED Light Emitting Diode. these are used as status indicators.
LOAD CELL A device which produces output signal proportional to the applied weight or force.
Also called a strain gauge.
MENU A set of prompts used to configure the instruments.
MENU DRIVEN Operational prompts suppled in common language via the system display to guide an
operator through a procedure.
MICROPROCESSOR A semiconductor device that performs control, input/output, arithmetic and logical
operations by executing instructions obtained from memory sources.
MIDPOINT LINEARITY
CORRECTION
Allows operator to “BEND” the response of an instrument to match a non-linear input.
MOTION The amount of allowable deviation between consecutive readings before a weighment
is accepted as being complete.
NEMA 4 An enclosure that is water tight, dust tight and usable bother indoors and outdoors.
Will protect the enclosed equipment against spalshing water, seepage of water, falling
or hose-directed water and severe external condensation.
NEMA 4X An enclosure that is water tight, dust tight and usable both in doors and outdoors. Will
protect the enclosed equipment against splashing water, seepage of water, falling or
hose directed water and severe external condensation. Corrosion Resistant.
NODE A node is an active device connected to the network, such as an HI 3000 Instrument,
computer or a printer. A node can also be a piece of networking equipment such as a
hub, switch or a router.
NET WEIGHT Gross Weight minus the Tare Value.
NON-LINEARITY A deviation of an instrument response from a straight line.
