4.0 DT210 STANDARD FEATURES The DT210 is easy to use yet it is able to solve many complex applications. This ease of use in the face of complexity is managed by the DT210's STANDARD FEATURES. The DT210 communicates via it's 8 character NUMERIC display, 16 character ALPHA display, and it's 60 position KEYBOARD. The NUMERIC display is used to display weight information, and as an adjunct to the alpha display. The ALPHA display is used to prompt the operator for input and for displaying data.
PAGE 19
4.1 CONTROL KEYS There are 4 keys that control the operation of the DT210. Understanding the 4 keys puts you in full control of the DT210. CONTINUE The CONTINUE key is used for scanning "scrolling menu's" and skipping past data entry steps. It is also used to confirm the last step in data entry before storing data in memory and printing. REVIEW The REVIEW key is used to scroll a menu backwards and for reviewing previous data entry steps.
PAGE 20
4.2 FIXED FUNCTION KEYS The fixed function keys are used for various test and maintenance functions. The fixed function keys are on the second row from the top row of the DT210 keyboard. The fixed function keys are: .2.1 Lamp Test - Test fluorescent displays. .2.2 Configure - Set programmable options (section 3). .2.3 Clear Memory - Clear totals, id memories or initialize the system (section 2.2). .2.4 Time - Display the time and date. 4.2.5 Date - Display the time and date. 4.2.
PAGE 21
4.2.2 CLEAR MEMORY The CLEAR MEMORY key is used to clear totals, erase id memory, initialize the DT210 system. 1. Press the CLEAR MEMORY key. 2. If the password is enabled the DT210 will prompt "ENTER PASSWORD". Enter the password if needed. 3. The CLEAR MEMORY menu is now available. CLEAR TOTALS -- Erase id total registers. ERASE MEMORY -- Erase all id information. INITIALIZE SYS -- Erase memory and initialize the DT210 system variables. Press the CONTINUE key to select a clear memory function.
PAGE 22
4.2.6 PRINT The PRINT key is used to send the weight, time, and date to the printer. Press the PRINT key. The DT210 prompts: 'PRINT SCALE WT'. Press the ENTER key to print the weight. 4.2.7 PAPER FEED The PAPER FEED key is used to send line feed characters to the printer. 4.2.8 DECIMAL POINT The DECIMAL POINT key is used to enter the decimal point for numeric data. 4.3 SCALE INTERFACE The SCALE INTERFACE permits the DT210 to be used in a wide range of weighing applications.
PAGE 23
4.4 PRINTER INTERFACE The PRINTER INTERFACE is used to print transaction tickets and summary reports. The DT210's standard printer interface connection is serial channel 1 output. Channel 1's output is available in both RS232 and open collector TTL. 4.5 SELF TEST The self test diagnostics that are available are: 4.5.1 TEST SCALE PORT -- Test the scale input port 1. 4.5.2 TEST SERIAL IN2 -- Test the input of port 2. 4.5.3 TEST SERIAL OUT1 -- Test serial output (printer) port 1. 4.5.

5.0 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 1. SCALE INPUT ERROR on Power Up. The DT210 is jumpered 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 fuse on back of DT210. 3. NO WEIGHT DISPLAY. (--READING SCALE--) Check meter cable. Use section 5.5.1 to test scale port. If there are no errors in 'test scale port - sec. 5.5.
PAGE 30
6.0 INTERFACE PORTS / WIRING LISTS The DT210 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. The output of Channel 1 is used for connecting to a printer. 2. SERIAL CHANNEL 2: RS232, CURRENT LOOP, or RS485. Channel 2 is used for interfacing to a second weigh meter, a second printer, or a computer. 3.
