Method of Function
A belt weigher or weighfeeder continuously weighs the quantity of material transported by a conveyor belt.
The feed rate is regulated on a weighfeeder according to a setpoint. A belt weigher only measures and it
cannot influence the feed rate.
Definitions
Q
Belt load
The weight of the material on a meter belt
Speed
The speed of the conveyor belt
Feed rate
The quantity of material transported by the conveyor belt per unit of time
Total
Amount of material transported = Feed rate x feed time
Belt load Q and speed v are continuously measured and factored together. The result is the feed rate I, from
which the flow rate is determined.
Fig. 2: The belt load of the weighbridge is not legal for trade
The material is transported over a weighing platform located beneath the belt, limited by 2 carrying idlers.
The load on the platform exerts a force on the load cell LC through one or more weighing idlers. The measuring displacement is approximately 0.2 mm. The measuring rolls are linked with the frame construction via
parallel plate springs. The load cell output voltage is proportional to the platform load. It is recorded with a
suitable measuring amplifier.
The load distribution on a single-roll weighbridge is shown by the white triangle. Only half of the force from
the weight of the material is passed into the measuring idler. The following conversion formula applies to the
effective bridge length with single-roll weighbridges:
Leff = Lg / 2
Leff = effective weighing platform length

Lg = total weighing platform length
Weighing platforms with more than one weighing idler will have a different factor than 1/2.
Therefore the belt load in kg/m totals:
QB = total load on the weighbridge.

BV-H2463GB, 1149

General Diagram
Belt speed
The belt speed is recorded using velocity sensor D and converted into a corresponding pulse frequency.
Feed rate
The readings Q and v are standardized in the unit to the physical quantities kg/m and m/s and multiplied with
one another. The product is feed rate I.
I in kg/s
Q in kg/m
v in m/s
QB in kg

Characteristics
Readouts
The display of INTECONT Tersus consists of 4 parts:
1. You can give the technical name at the installation location in the header. A rotating symbol on the left
edge shows whether the weighfeeder is on or off.
2. The second line of the display is reserved for event information.
3. The following two lines show readings that can be selected with the cursor buttons. These lines correspond to the lines of the INTECONT PLUS display.
4. The lower half of the display is used for various visualizations: the large-scale display of an individual
reading, the display of 4 readings in line font size or the display of as many as 9 readings that can be adjusted in the parameters block Configuration HMI Values. They adapt their font size over 3 levels.

Event messages
Events and malfunctions are shown by an alphanumerical shorthand symbol and title.
The appropriate "uncoded text" for all subsequent events can be called up via the operating keyboard.
It distinguishes alarms (red) and warnings that either have to be acknowledged (orange) or do not have
to be acknowledged (yellow). Alarms will shut down the scales, warnings will not. All alarms are also signaled through a relay output.

NON SI units (English): lb, lb/h, t, t/h, f and inches
Turning recording the total or setpoint specification on or off
This can be selected with the P02.06Feeder Start and P02.07Feedrate Setpoint parameters.
Monitoring for minimum and maximum limit values
for feed rate, belt load and belt speed The limit values, relay outputs and event classes are separately
definable for all 6 possibilities.
Mains power failure
Scales data, calibration data, counter readings and quantity pulses not yet issued remain saved for unlimited time after a mains power failure, and the time for approx. 5 days.
Belt speed
The belt speed is recorded with a speed pick-up.
Zero setting
The zero point fault of the belt weigher comes from soiling that adheres permanently or from other constant factors. The zero setting records the zero point fault on an empty belt over one or several wholenumber belt circuits. This corrects the regular measurement in normal operation.
Zero setting takes place with an empty belt conveyor with a program which runs automatically.
Zero setting should be started manually at regular intervals if automatic operation is not preselected.
The maximum permitted zero setting correction is monitored.
Zero drop out
Suppression of the totalizing for measurements around zero, so that the counter remains constant during
no-load operation of the belt. The function can be turned off.
BV-H2463GB, 1149

General Diagram
Tare
Taring is a calibration procedure in which the influence of the empty belt on the measuring signal, the
basic tare, is determined. After taring, the total remains unchanged over one belt circuit with the empty
belt. The call-up is protected by a password.
Measuring at dispatch: VAP
For reasons of design, the weighing platform is not located directly at the material dispatch point. This
means that if the belt load changes, the measurement result for the feed rate will not accord precisely
with the current feed rate at the dispatch point. Measurement is relocated to the material dispatch point
using a special velocity-dependent delay element. No special measuring sensors are required to do this.
Batching mode
Batch mode conveys a preset amount of material. The conveying process ends once the batch setpoint
has been reached. The batching process can be controlled via the belt conveyor drive or via the bin
feeder.
The turn-off point and the utilization of "dribble feed" can be automatically adapted.
BIC belt influence compensation and belt drift
This function makes it possible for the belt to record and compensate for dynamic zero point influence
with an additional belt circuit sensor and a metallic marking flag in the belt. This increases the scale's
short-term accuracy.
Display filters
For feed rate, belt load and belt speed
Maintenance guidelines through the appearance of an event in the display
For the voltage supply's operating time, for the scale's operating time and for the next zero setting.
Calibration
Calibration of the pick-up input is not necessary. Certain design data on the load cells, velocity sensor,
inclination of the conveyor belt, etc. must be entered. From this data, the device calculates all required
standardizations for the displays. The control or readjustment can take place using two different methods.
Control with material: the result of a material inspection is entered into the device and serves to correct
the measurement result.
Control with calibration weight: the standardization is controlled or, if the technical data (lever ratio, belt
conveyor inclination etc.) is not precisely known, it can be corrected.
In due course, the program also becomes suitable for the verification of mechanical changes, for example twisting of the weighing platform due to movement of the foundations.

operation.
There is no separate status display in gravimetric operation, i.e. normal operation.
Characteristics:
All operation functions can be executed.
All control inputs and outputs work as set.
Gravimetric Operation:
The actual value for the feed rate is regulated to the specified setpoint.
The maximum possible setpoint equals the nominal feed rate. There is the message SC01 Event: Setpoint

Mode functions
Volumetric Operation:
The drive motor for the conveyor belt or material prefeeder is regulated proportional to the setpoint. The belt
load does not have any impact.
The feed rate approximately equals the specified setpoint under rated conditions. The setpoint is limited to
three times the nominal feed rate.
The calibration functions >0< Zero Set , TW: Tare , CW: Span Calibration and LB: Pulses/Belt can only be
called up in volumetric operation.
Volumetric synchronous operation:
In contrast to volumetric operation, it is not the rated belt load that is used for calculating the current target
belt speed. Instead, it is the current belt load before changing over. That means that changing over is jerkfree.

Keyboard operation ON/OFF
The Start Keyboard Mode function can be used to put the preselected operating sources on the keyboard of
INTECONT for turning on/off and specifying the setpoint and target batching values.
Deselecting with Stop Keyboard Mode makes the old sources function again.
When changing from an external source (such as serial) to the keyboard, the on-off status and
the setpoints are retained. The external signals act in the opposite direction. It is still possible to see a preselected external setpoint.

Pulse/Belt circuit LB
The LB: Pulses/Belt adjustment program only has to be called up.

At initial calibration
when a new belt is mounted or the belt tension was substantially changed
when one of the P02.04 Pulses per length or P02.05 Nominal Speed parameters was changed on scales
with or without speed measurement
The amount of impulses given by the velocity sensor for one belt circuit is calculated. Afterwards, the number
of impulses acts as a belt circuit identifier for the TW: Tare, CW: Span Calibration programs and zero setting.
This program should be called up at initial calibration as the first of all adjustment programs. This also applies to scales with no speed measurement.
Preconditions:
1. Measure the time for a belt circuit as precisely as possible and key in as theP03.02 Belt Circuit Time
parameters before calling up
2. The conveyor belt has to run

Tare TW
The taring program uses one or several whole-number belt circuits to record the zero point fault of the weighfeeders. This value is used to correct the ongoing measuring results in normal operation. Taring and zero
setting must be differentiated.
Tare:
Recording of the base tares (weight of mechanics, belt conveyor etc.) during commissioning, service and maintenance
Zero:
Recording the operational zero deviation such as soiling
The maximum correction stroke of the zero setting program is limited; that of the tare program is not.
After taring, the zeroing program bases the permissible correction deviation on the new reference
value.
Preconditions :
1. Under no circumstances may there be any material on the belt. The prefeeder can be controlled with
Feeder ON/OFF function.
2. The mechanical equipment within the scales area must be cleaned. Deposits may remain that develop
again immediately in normal operation.
4. The belt conveyor must be running. Notice is given automatically.

The scales condition is fine, no further measures are necessary.
Error < 5 %
KOR = 0.95 ... 1.05

Enter the value KOR into parameters D 02. Of course, this is only effective if the
result of a material control has not yet been allowed for in the parameters.
Error > 5 %
KOR < 0.95 or KOR > 1.05

Deviations of several percent indicate incorrectly entered technical data (e.g. unknown exact belt incline, levers, etc.) or mechanical errors (alignment, tension).
The current value of the P04.02 Range Correction parameter is not taken into account in the check.
This is why the control program will show the same KOR fault quotients after correcting with the value input in

Weighing Platforms
12.1.1 Effective Weighing Platform Length

The effective weighing platform length "L" is an important value for calibration. It is determined by the design
of the weighing platform and can usually be found in the technical data sheets. However, it is always expedient to measure the length manually and to enter the exact value as a parameter. The hatched area shows
the load distribution on the weighing platform.
Single-Idler Platform
The load on the weighing platform is conducted via a weighing idler into the load cell. This can be done by
means of a lever system or without levers by means of a parallel leaf-spring system.
In this case, L is computed as:

The calibration weight simulates a certain belt load and serves to control the weighing system. It can have a
direct effect on the weighing platform or via a lever system. In parameters C 08, not the actual weight but the
weight affecting the weighing platform must be entered. The effective calibration weight QPRF is the weighing platform load in kg simulated by the calibration weight.

In certain cases, the belt inclination must be entered as a parameter. The mounting orientation of the load
cell is the decisive factor.

Parameter block Dialog Behaviour :

Dialog language, display units and availability or security of the function block functions. The parameters
values will be converted automatically if the dimensions are changed.
Parameter block Rated Data :
Pulses per length P02.04 is important to calibration.
The dimension data should be adapted to the Nominal Flow Rate. Flow Rate Units P02.01 resolution should
not be greater than 4 ... 5 decimals for a quiet display.
The output frequency should not be any more than 10 Hz if an external volumeter is connected.
Parameter block Calibration Data :
All calibration and evaluation data are important and must be entered exactly. Most of the details can be
found in the technical data sheets. The effective platform length and the inclination of the belt must be
measured on-site. The inclination of the belt may only be entered for systems in which the load cells are
arranged perpendicular to the belt. On vertically-installed load cells, the effective angle equals 0.
The inclination of the belt can be determined easily using a spirit level and a measuring tape. It is advantageous to measure multiple times and to take the mean value of these measurements (h1, h2, ) as the value 'h'.

Function Check
1. Switch on the belt conveyor and scales. The switch-on process depends on the preselected Feeder
Start P02.06 source.
2. A rotating cross appears in the header as a progress indicator. If not, there is no clearance or the ON
button was not pressed.
3. Take any event messages which appear into account and remove the error.
4. Check the following:
Tachometer: The output frequency of the tachometer generator has to be less than 3,000 Hz with activated measurement. The value must approximately correspond to the information in the data sheet.
Load cell: The non-standardized initial value for the load cell amplifier may not be larger than 2.85 mV/V
even at nominal load of the weighing platform. It must change if the weighing platform is placed under
load (e.g. the calibration weight). If the value is too large, the load cell is overloaded. If the value is negative, the load cell may be wrongly connected.
The load cell load in percent, sourced from the sum of the load cell nominal capacities, should not be
larger than 100 % with nominal belt load.
12.4
Test With Calibration Weight
The test with a calibration weight makes sense because

1. mechanical or electrical faults are possible
2. calibration data can be unreliable (for instance, the leverage is not precisely known) and it is difficult to
measure the belt inclination
3. data may be incorrectly entered
The calibration weight should be between 30 % ... 100 % of the platform nominal load and be accurate.
1. Enter Calibration Weight P03.08.
On beltweighers with parallel leaf-spring guides, the effective calibration weight is the same as the actual
value. In other cases, the effective calibration weight can be taken from the data sheet, or can be calculated according to the chapter details/data flow images. The inclination of the conveyor belt has no effect
on the effective calibration weight.
2. Call up the CW: Span Calibration program.
Some Possible Causes of Fault:
Warping of the weighing platform, improper alignment, interferences in the load cell cable.
If you suspect any of these faults, repeat the check with a different weight.
Non-linearity is an indication of such faults, linear faults are more likely to be cause by incorrect data.

12.5
Belt Velocity Check
The velocity sensor frequency generator can be actuated in a number of different ways.
1. with a frictional wheel on the lower carrying run of the belt or
2. with the shaft of the drive motor
In the first case, the value Pulses per length P02.04 depends on the exact diameter of the frictional wheel; in
the second case, it depends on the gear and looping factor of the belt. So the velocity measurement accuracy should be checked.
1. Establish the velocity of the conveyor belt using a stopwatch and a tape measure. Make several measurements to be sure and then calculate the mean.
2. Read the speed display over the same period of time wherever feasible.
3. Compare these readings with one another and correct P02.04 wherever necessary. (new value = prior
value * speed measured/speed read)
This procedure can also be used to determine unknown characteristic values.
Check the space between the recording sensor and crown gear and reduce wherever necessary if there is a
known Pulses per length and large deviations.
12.6
Test with Material
Each test or calibration with calibration weights can only approximate the actual operating conditions. Scales
with highly accurate measurement can only be achieved by several measurements made using material and
a subsequent correction. It is corrected with Range Correction P04.02.
The following items must be observed:
1. The route from the weighing platform to the collecting point for the material must be clean
2. Any available diverters must not divert material.
3. If there are any feed screws or air slides between the weighing platform and the collection point, material
must be conveyed for approx. 1/2 hour before any inspection measurements are made. This will allow
the usual material build-ups to form on the conveying elements.
4. Dedusting must be set to a minimum
5. The containers or vehicles in which the material is transported onto a legal-for-trade scales must be
cleaned and re-weighed (tared) before each filling.
For example:
Old value of P04.02 = 1
A material quantity of 4.9 t is conveyed over a time period of 15 minutes. The count read on the unit is 5.0 t.
P04.02 (new) = 1 * 4.9/5.0 = 0.98
The calculated value should be keyed into P04.02.

Parameters
13 Parameters
The INTECONT Tersus is adapted to each application by means of parameters. No special programing
knowledge is therefore necessary.

ing
Tab. 1 : Using parameter sets
Note: Parameters not required for an application can be faded out or declared 'read only' using EasyServe in
expert mode. EasyServe compiles a list of visible parameters that form an integral part of the system documentation. They, together with this manual, make up the relevant documentation of the control system for an
application. The parameter list in the operating manual contains all of the parameters, regardless of their
actual use in an application.
In addition to the parameter set stored in the scales, we recommend that after commissioning you keep a
copy of the parameter set in a mass storage medium using EasyServe.
The parameters are sorted into blocks for purposes of clarity. The parameter can be explicitly identified by
means of its block and the number in the block in the corresponding version of the scales software:
P01.03: Parameter block 1, 3rd parameter

BV-H2463GB, 1149
- 53 -
Parameters
Note: Each parameter also has a unique number (ID) with which it can be addressed over the serial interface. This number can be seen as a Tooltip in EasyServe when passing over the parameter and can be output in the parameter printout.
Gaps can appear between block numbers and parameters within the blocks.
In rare cases, the number of a parameter may change.

Parameters
13.2
Configuring Event Messages
The system monitors a range of both of its own operation and the peripherals. The reaction to a recognized
deviation, that is to say an event, is set by parameters. The parameters are used to assign to each event a
class that will determine this reaction.

Tab. 3 : Event classes
Note: An external binary output channel that may have been assigned to an event is set, independent of the
event class.
A newly pending alarm or warning 1-class event will be shown on the operating panel blinking and in color.
The blinking stops when acknowledged. Acknowledged event messages are cleared from the display for
currently pending events when the event is no longer pending. Each event is stored with a time-stamp in the
internal memory for later analysis.

Events Details
15.1.1 Event Group: Calibration

CA01
(P13.06)
The load cell cable is improperly connected, not connected or has been interrupted.
The load cell may be faulty.
Steps to take:
- check the cabling and the load cell
- check the load cell
Note:
The power supply must be switched off and on again if the scales still cannot be
switched on even after the error has been rectified.
CA02
(P13.03)
The input frequency is greater than 3,000 Hz.
CA05
(P15.10)
Not a monotonically increasing curve.

A monotonically increasing compensation curve is monitored:
- when the linearization is switched on,
- when the parameter is altered
15.1.2 Event Group: Controller

CO01
(P14.10)
The actuating variable of the feed rate regulator has reached the upper response
threshold. After a time the message HI-5 (control deviation) is also sent.
1. No material is flowing or material flow is irregular.
2. The external output regulator has been incorrectly set.
Steps to take: check the material discharge and the actuating variable (service value
Y). At the nominal feed rate, Y should be between about 10...14 mA.

BV-H2463GB, 1149
- 121 -
Events
15.1.3 Event Group: Electrical System

WE01
(P13.01)
This event is identified once the power supply is restored.

The scales will not switch on automatically, regardless of the event class. The event
must first be acknowledged and the command to start given again before the scales
will restart.
WE09
(P13.04)
A short-circuit or break in the cable to the velocity sensor.

The internal velocity value is set to 0 if a Namur error occurs.
The frequency display (service value) is still active.
The event message has to be on IG when connecting up other equipment (not Namur). External Namur adapters and resistance wiring, etc. are not needed.
WE10
(P13.05)
A short-circuit or break in the cable of the belt circuit sensor (BIC).
15.1.4 Event Group: Interlock

IL01
Event: Run Disabled
(P13.07)

If this event is pending then the downstream transport equipment is most likely not
switched on.
15.1.5 Event Group: Material Flow

MF06
(P09.05)
The batch result is outside the tolerance range.

Possible causes:
- highly erratic material flow
- altered feeder discharge behavior
- error in weight calculation due to disturbance forces

loads of the load cells.
Measuring range end:
125 % for load cells with 2.85 mV/V
175 % for load cells with 2 mV/V
Possible causes:
- Shunt forces or compression ratios bring about incorrect load cell loading
- incorrect cabling
- faulty load cell
HI02
(P06.04)
Actual feed rate greater than the maximum value set in P06.03 Limit: Actual Flow
Rate MAX
Possible causes:
- feed rate setpoint too large

Events
HI05
Event: Deviation
(P14.09)
Maximum control deviation exceeded. The actual feed rate has deviated to far from
the setpoint over too long a period of time.
Possible causes:
- Fault in material handling: the bulk solids flow irregularly or cannot be discharged
sufficiently well.
- the controller has at times come against its limits
- error in the electronics
- check the cable to the external output regulator and to the motor. Check the output
regulator settings (current limiting, speed range)
- Calibration error: the controller was set at such a critical value during initial calibration that minor changes in the overall properties of the system lead to unreliable operation.

15.1.9 Event Group: Sequence Monitoring

SC01
(P13.11)
Cause of the event:

Depending on the respective mode of operation:
a) The setpoint is limited to the nominal feed rate (P02.02 Nominal Flow Rate) in
gravimetric operation.
b) The setpoint is limited to three times the value of the nominal feed rate (P02.02
Nominal Flow Rate) in volumetric operation.
SC02
Event: Stand-By
(P06.14)
The scale is in stand-by operation. That means that the setpoint is less than the limit
set in P06.13 Stand-By Limit Value. The feeder drive is switched off. The 'running'
state will still be displayed.
This function protects the motor from overheating at very low speeds or when idling.
Steps to take:
Key in the larger setpoint and check P06.13 Stand-By Limit Value.

Replacing
Replacing INTECONT PLUS with INTECONT Tersus
In the beginning, INTECONT PLUS equipment was produced as the FIP model and then as the VEG 206xx
model starting in 2003.
INTECONT Tersus as the follow-up unit was also kept very similar to its predecessors in terms of its hardware connections.
The EasyServe adjustment program (VPC 20150) can be used for INTECONT Tersus from version 19 which
makes it possible to conveniently change over from VEG to INTECONT Tersus.
The following tables show the connector pin assignment of FIP, VEG and INTECONT Tersus opposite one
another for all physical signals.

a) tachometer
The output frequency of the tachometer generator has to be less than 3,000 Hz when the measurement is
activated. The value must approximately correspond to the information in the data sheet. If the frequency
fluctuates substantially at a constant belt speed, the Namur sensor of the tachometer generator is probably
too far away.
b) wz
The non-standardized output value of the load cell amplifier may not be greater than 2.85 mV/V even at the
rated load of the weighbridge. It must change if the weighing platform is placed under load (e.g. the calibration weight).
Value too large:
load cell overloaded
tare equalization weight incorrectly set (if available)
Negative Value:
load cell connected incorrectly
tare equalization weight incorrectly set
c) aw
Load of the load cell in percents with reference to the total of the rated loads of the load cell.
The value can be analyzed as per item b). aw should not be greater
than 100 % at the rated belt load.
If it is not possible to bring about a reasonable operational state in spite of all efforts, the test plug chapter
might help.

Test Connector
A basic function control of the INTECONT can be carried out using a simple test connector. In this way an
error can be limited between the load cell with wiring and electrical equipment.
1. Connect the connector as shown in the diagram
2. Disconnect load cell connector X7 and plug in the test connector instead
The dimensioned resistances given result in the following service values:
1. Load cell signal (lc) approx.1.1 mV/V
2. Load cell usage factor (aw) approx. 55 % if C03 = 2 mV/V and approx. 39 % if C03 = 2.85 mV/V
If lc is in the listed areas, the pick-up input is free of errors.
Note:
With other resistances R1 and R2, the LC Raw is calculated to 500 * R2 / R1 [mV/V].
The test plug is available as an accessory.

The keyboard setpoints are stored.
Fig. 22: VWF switch-on sequence
Time
Condition
Feeding does not begin with the on command as the all-clear signal has not been given.
To start, the scales requires the increasing slope of a start command.
Feeding is started with the increasing slope.
Feed rate control will operate in volumetric mode during the startup time defined in P14.15 (also refer
to: Volumetric / (Volumetric Synchronous) / Gravimetric Modes of Regulator Operation).
Changing over to normal gravimetrically controlled feeding operation (assuming gravimetric mode was
selected before). Regulation stays in volumetric mode (assuming the operator selected this ahead of
time).
Feeding will be switched off if no all-clear signal is received (or if the switch on command was removed).
The feed rate will continue being calculated for the time set in P07.06 in order to capture the last trickling material. Calculation will then stop; the counter will retain the value previously reached even if the
fill level in the hopper changes.

Behavior if alarm Triggered:

The feeder drive is switched off immediately if an alarm is triggered. The feed rate will continue being calculated for the time set in P07.06.
Measurement and display:
The measuring load will always be calculated and displayed. The feed rate will only be calculated with the
feeder switched on and during the stopping time (P07.06).
18.6
Regulation
Weighfeeder
A weighfeeder draws material from a storage hopper. The set and actual feed rates are compared and the
difference conducted to the controller. This changes the speed of the conveyor belt until the actual value is
equal to the setpoint.

BV-H2463GB, 1149

Appendix
Belt weigher with controlled material prefeeder

The feed rate is set to the setpoint by changing the belt load. The belt speed is normally constant. An external three-point step controller is needed with position-regulated prefeeders.
Belt weigher with a constant load

A non-regulated material prefeeder charges a conveyor belt. The belt speed is adapted by the controller so
that the belt load always equals the rated value. The fact that the weighing system always has the same
working point means it can achieve a high level of measuring accuracy. The feed rate at the discharge is
equal to the feed rate of the prefeeder.
An external performance level with anchor tension or speed regulation is needed for the drive in all cases.
BV-H2463GB, 1149
- 152 -

Appendix
Modes:
Gravimetric
Controlled operation as described above
Volumetric
Uncontrolled operation, i.e. the belt speed or prefeeder is controlled proportional to the setpoint. The measured feed rate or actual belt load value is not taken into consideration.
Volumetric Synchronous
In contrast to volumetric operation, it is not the rated belt load that is used for calculating the set belt speed.
Instead, the measured belt load is used before changing over. That means that changing over is jerk-free.
The operating modes can be selected with a dialog function. Special start-up and empty running functions
can also be activated.
Operating sources:
Some operating functions can be triggered by various sources. For example, setpoint specification, turning
on and off, resetting the counter and acknowledging events.
18.7
Measuring at the Discharge Point VAP
Measuring on the VAP discharge point shifts the measuring point of the weighbridge to the discharge point of
the material by means of a time-lag device. The totalized amount of material dispatched is directly recorded.
Measuring at dispatch: VAP
Preconditions:
The length ratio from the centerline of the weighing platform to the material dispatch to the overall belt
conveyor length is known.
Key in the length ratio in percent in parameters Platform Dis.Length P12.02.
Activate VAP via VAP Active P12.01 parameters.

Appendix
18.8
Belt Monitoring
Drift and slippage monitoring is built into the functions. Monitoring is activated with the P12.03 Belt Sensor
Active parameter.
The programs can only be used for belt monitoring if there is a belt circuit sensor (Namur transmitter) and a
triangular metallic sensor surface in the conveyor belt. Otherwise, the aforementioned parameter and
P12.05 BIC Active parameters have to be on NO.
Procedure for activating belt monitoring
1. Set the parameters P12.03 Belt Sensor Active to YES
2. Key in the sensor length in P12.06 Sensor Length parameters
3. Key in the sensor width in P12.07 Sensor Width parameters
4. Set P12.08 Sensor Offset parameters to 0
5. Call up the calibration function LB: Pulses/Belt
18.9
BIC belt impact compensation
Even excellent conveyor belts are never completely even and they become heavier and stiffer especially on
the seams. This is why it is normally only possible to guarantee a high level of accuracy over entire belt circuits (i.e. over the mean).
An additional belt circuit sensor and metallic marking flag in the belt enable the unit to record this impact and
constantly correct it.
That substantially boosts the short-term accuracy of the scale.
Belt impact measurement is constant to take changes in regular operation into account. Compensation
adapts itself whenever material is conveyed.
Relevant parameters P12.05 BIC Active, P12.03 Belt Sensor Active, P12.04 DI: Source Belt Sensor.

Appendix
18.10 Linearization
The belt loading does not usually need to be linearized. It only makes sense with major belt load fluctuations
and simple weighing mechanisms.
Calibration with calibration weights:
Apply calibration weight Q1, start the scales and call up the zeroing program.
Key in the final result of zero setting program and key in later in Linearization I1 parameters.
Cancel the program and do not exceed the result.
Key in the result of the formula q1 = Q1 / L * 100 % / q0 in Linearization S1 parameters.
Where
Q1: calibration weight in kg
L: P03.05 Effective Platform Length
q0: P04.01 Nominal Belt Load
Repeat work processes 1 - 3 with increasingly large calibration weights for the other linearization points.
Calibration using material:
Perform a material check with a belt load q1.
Read the mean of the belt load q1(a) on the equipment and key it into the Linearization I1 parameters.
Key in the result of the formula q1(s) = q1(a) * Ms / Ma into the Linearization S1 parameters.
Where
Ms: conveyed quantity of material in kg
Ma: quantity of material read on the equipment in kg
Repeat work processes 1 - 3 with increasingly large calibration weights for the other linearization points.
