mechanism. Install the printer ribbon as shown on the diagram affixed to the dot head cover. * Get the IDS 550 ready for data input and printing ----------------------------------------------------------------1. Be sure the print-mechanism shipping restraint has been removed. 2. Connect the IDS550 to the weigh meter via the 25 pin 'D' connector at the back of the printer. See Appendix I for communication port wiring information. 4. Connect the IDS550 to AC power. 5. Turn power on.
ENTER - Enter data and go to the next step. CLEAR - EXIT The configuration functions use "scrolling menus". A scrolling menu is a list of options that are viewed by pressing the CONTINUE key or the REVIEW key. The CONTINUE key advances the display to the next item in the menu, the REVIEW key retreats to the previous item. The ENTER key selects the item being displayed. The CLEAR key is used to exit from a menu. EXAMPLE: Press the Square Configure switch.

1 INITIALIZE SYSTEM ------------------------------------------------------------------This function ERASES memory and RESETS all the parameters to their default setting!!! When INITIALZIE SYSTEM is activated the IDS550 prompts: "ENTER=INITIALIZE". Press the ENTER switch to initialize the system or press the CONTINUE (or CLEAR) key to exit WITHOUT initialization.

Press the ENTER key to complete the baud rate selection. The IDS550 prompts: "N DATA N STOP" where N DATA = number of data bits per character, N STOP = number of stop bits per character.
5 CONFIGURE SCALE ------------------------------------------------------------------The IDS550 prompts: "CONDEC/WS700T" (or current meter that is selected.) The meter select menu is: "NCI5790" "ANALOGIC AN5316" "CONDEC / WS700T" "AND / GENERAL" "CARDINAL 738" "TOLEDO 8142" "WI 110" "DR 10K" "SSD800" "HR 50 LIBERATOR" "FB90-165" Press the CONTINUE key to scan the meter list. key to select a meter type.
If the IDS550 internal motion detect option is installed The IDS550 prompts: "MOTION TIME XX" where XX is the time between motion detect samples (tenths of seconds). Press ENTER to use the displayed time or enter a new motion detect interval time. The IDS550 prompts: "MOTION RANGE XX" where XX is allowable weight deviation for the scale = not in motion. Press ENTER to use the displayed range or enter a new motion detect range.
The above steps are repeated for password 2 . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!! WARNING: ONCE A PASSWORD IS ENTERED IT MUST BE MEMORIZED. IF YOU FORGET THE PASSWORD THERE IS NO WAY TO ACCESS THE PROTECTED FUNCTIONS. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The PASSWORD function inserts an additional step when accessing protected functions: The IDS550 prompts: "ENTER PASSWORD". The correct password must be entered before continuing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------3 PAGE PRINTER CONFIGURATION GUIDE ------------------------------------------------------------------Activate the CONFIGURE menu and press the ENTER key when the IDS550 displays 'CONFIG PAGE'. The IDS550 prompts: "HEADER LABEL" Enter up to 16 characters for the header label or press CONTINUE to skip header label entry. The HEADER LABEL is printed when item #2 is selected in the page-printer item list.
follows the PAGE WORKSHEET. 2. Activate page configuration. 3. Enter the data from the PAGE WORKSHEET into the IDS550. 4. Enter a 0 for the line_no after the last data item.
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | -------------------------------------| | | | | -------------------------------------NOTE: A zero in line no. column terminates printing. Use zero only after all required information has been entered.
-------------------------------------------------------------------4. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE -------------------------------------------------------------------1. SCALE INPUT ERROR on Power Up. The IDS550 internal switch is set for Current Loop input and no idle current is detected. The signal wires may be reversed or connected to the wrong pins. The meter may not be sending. 2. NO DISPLAY, NO AUDIO ON POWER UP. Check power cable. Check the fuse on the back of the IDS550. 3. NO WEIGHT DISPLAY.

Interface Port Connections --------------------------------------------------------------------The IDS550 has 3 interface ports: 1. SERIAL CHANNEL 1: RS232 or CURRENT LOOP The input of Channel 1 is normally used for interfacing to a weigh meter. 2. SERIAL CHANNEL 2: RS232, CURRENT LOOP, or RS485. Channel 2 is used for interfacing to a second weigh meter or a computer. 3.
