Wiring Configuration

Connect the Scale indicator using the appropriate diagram.

The corresponding green LED will blink when the following three requirements are satisfied.

  1. The display is powered on.
  2. The indicator’s port is enabled to transmit continuously.
  3. The wires are connected to the terminal block as previously described.

The display will learn “automatically configure” to the transmitting device when the LEARN button is pressed at the end of startup. It will display the BAUD rate and then display the weight. Pressing LEFT or RIGHT will move the displayed stream accordingly until the desired data can be seen on the display.

Quick Setup Procedures

If possible place a weight on the scale. Wire up the display according to Section 2 and configure the transmitting device to output continuously. Press and release the RESET button on the display. While the display is counting down from 9 to 0 hold the
LEARN button. At the end of countdown the display will flash “LEARN” then the BAUD rate such as 1200 and then the weight. Shift the data using the LEFT and RIGHT buttons until the desired weight is in view.

SBL Series Specs

B-TEK-SBL-2 SUPERBRIGHT-LED-Remote-Display -05

The SBL Series has an echo feature which will take the received data stream and echo it out to further displays via RS 232, Current Loop or RS 422.
(To transmit RS 422 remove the 8 pin SP485 in socket U5 and place it in U8)
The echo feature transmits every other data stream unless option 4 is enabled.
See Section 6 for more details.

Changing Intensity

To change the display’s intensity:

  • Press and release the RESET button
  • Hold the RIGHT button during countdown
  • At the end of countdown the RIGHT button will toggle between displaying “high” and “low” (on 7 segment displays “lo” is displayed)
  • Select the desired intensity and press LEARN to save changes Factory default is “low”

*Intensity may also be adjusted using Option 27 (See Sections 5/6)

Option Summary
To enter into the options hold the LEFT button during power up. At the end of the countdown the display will display “OPTION”. Once in options, LEFT will cycle through the option numbers. The RIGHT button will toggle between On/Off for some options and will enter into an advanced menu for more complicated options. See specific options in Section 6 for more advanced option descriptions. Pressing LEARN at any time will save the settings and reset the display. To restore to factory default, press both the LEFT and RIGHT button simultaneously during countdown.

Option Details

  1. Restore Factory Defaults
    Option 0 resets the display to factory default. It erases all data stored in non-volatile RAM including shift amount, baud rate, end character, and sets all options to off.

  2. Version
    Option 1 displays the software version of the display. The unit will display the month, followed by the year. This option is only used for trouble shooting purposes.

  3. Toledo
    When Option 2 is set to 1 or 3 the unit will decode standard Toledo Style Data Stream. When Option 2 is set to 2 or 4 the unit will decode extended Toledo Format Stream. Settings 1 and 2 will set annunciators for the SBL-4A and SBL- 6A, while settings 3 and 4 will decode LB/KG GR/NT for standard Matko units with annunciator dots.

  4. B-TEK-SBL-2 SUPERBRIGHT-LED-Remote-Display -06 Timeout Length
    Option 3 is used to set the timeout length. The timeout length is the maximum amount of time expected between data streams before communication is considered interrupted. The default (0/Off) acts as a 5 second timeout, all other values represent the number of seconds the display will wait for a new data stream. The display will then do one of three things after the timeout depending on how Option 5 is set. The maximum timeout allowed to be set is 255 seconds. While in setup for the time out option LEFT decrements the value and RIGHT increments.

  5. Display on Demand
    Option 4 sets the display for On Demand mode. It is recommended to be turned on when connected to the print button of an indicator or when data is only sent once every 2 or more seconds. While in On Demand mode the display will wait for and display every data stream. While in the default (off) the display uses every other data stream to ensure data integrity.

  6. No Data
    Option 5 sets the display to do one of three things after a data stream time out. The default is to display “NoData”. The other two options are “Clear” (blank the display) and “Hold” (keep the last weight sent). The time out length can be specified with Option 3. RIGHT toggles between the three choices, “NoData”, “Clear”, and “Hold”

  7. Fixed Decimal Point
    Option 6 will set the display to illuminate a decimal point when it is not present in the data stream. Default (off) will show a decimal point only where it is located in the data stream. All other values represent the digit to attach a decimal point to, starting from right to left. B-TEK-SBL-2
SUPERBRIGHT-LED-Remote-Display -07

  8. No Count Down
    Option 7 will disable the display from counting down from 9 to 0 when powered up.

  9. No Zero Suppression
    Option 8 will disable the display’s ability to suppress leading “0”s with spaces. The default (off) will display a space for all leading “0”s up to the final two in the 1s and 10s column or up to a “0” immediately in front of a decimal point. For example when the option is off the stream “000000” will become ” 00″ and the stream “0000.00” will become ” 0.00″.

  10. Display Alpha Characters
    Option 9 will enable the unit to display both alpha and numeric characters. The default (off) will replace all non-numerics with spaces. A 7 segment display is limited by the alpha characters it can display. For example it can not display characters such as “x”, “q”, “k”, “!” or “?”.

  11. Mirror
    Option 10 enables a display to be read in a rear view mirror. The default (off) is for direct viewing.

  12. Addressable
    Option 11 will set the display to be addressable. The display will ignore any characters until the addressable character is received, then display the data immediately following it. The addressable character can be set to any character from 1 to 255. The number selected represents the decimal equivalent of the desired character. For example if an “A” is at the beginning of the data stream then you would set the address to 65. LEFT decrements the character value and RIGHT increments the character value. See Section 9 for ASCII character values. If the indicator is sending 7 data bits even or odd parity then the parity bit may change the decimal value of the character by adding 128 to it. We recommend setting the indicator to 8 data bits no parity for convenience. Default (off) uses standard data stream.

  13. No Auto Shift
    Option 12 will cause the scoreboard to display the first 6 characters of the data stream when it is learned. When this option is off the scoreboard will attempt to shift the weight into view when learned.

  14. Fixed Value
    Option 13 is used to set or view the shift amount. LEFT decrements the value and RIGHT increments the value. Has the same effect as shifting Left and Right during normal operation

  15. Baud Rate
    Option 14 is used to set or view the Baud Rate. RIGHT will cycle through the options. 0/Off indicates the unit has not been set, 1 = 300, 2=600, 3=1200, 4=2400, 5=4800, 6=9600 and 7=19200.

  16. End Character
    Option 15 is used to set or view the end character. When in learn mode the unit will look for an end of text(ETX), line feed(LF) and a carriage return(CR), which have decimal values of 3, 10, and 13 respectively. Any character may be manually selected through this option by setting it to the desired decimal equivalent of the desired character. LEFT decrements the character value and RIGHT increments the character value. See Section 9 for ASCII character values. If the indicator is sending 7 data bits even or odd parity then the parity may change the decimal value of the character by adding 128 to it. We recommend setting the indicator to 8 data bits no parity for convenience.

  17. Minimum Weight
    Option 16 sets the minimum weight that the unit will display. LEFT will change the value of the selected digit and RIGHT will change which digit is selected. For example if you set the minimum weight† to “000030” and the indicator is sending
    “000000” then the display will go BLANK until the threshold value is exceeded.

  18. Maximum Weight
    Option 17 sets the maximum weight that the unit will display. LEFT will change the value of the selected digit and RIGHT will change which digit is selected. For example if you set the maximum weight to “100000” and the indicator is sending
    “120000” then the display will go BLANK until the weight drops below the threshold value.

  19. Blank Out Character 1
    Option 18 sets a character in the data stream to look for to blank the display. For example if you want the display to blank when over capacity and the indicator sends an “O”, set option 18 to 79.

  20. Blank Out Character 2
    Option 19 sets a character in the data stream to look for to blank the display. For example if you want the display to blank when over capacity and the indicator sends an “O”, set option 18 to 79.

  21. Blank Out Character 3
    Option 20 sets a character in the data stream to look for to blank the display. For example if you want the display to blank when over capacity and the indicator sends an “O”, set option 18 to 79.

  22. Red Stoplight
    See section 7.

  23. Green Stoplight
    See section 7.

  24. Grams / Ounces
    Annunciator will display according to the following chart when the designated character is in the data stream. B-TEK-SBL-2 SUPERBRIGHT-LED-Remote-Display

  25. Fairbanks Addressable
    Set option 24 only if the Fairbanks indicator is sending out multiple streams, ie. gross and tare weights. Set the option according to the chart.B-TEK-
SBL-2 SUPERBRIGHT-LED-Remote-Display -09

  26. Fixed Annunciator
    Option 25 will disregard the characters in the data stream and force the annunciators on according to the following chart

  1. Demo Mode
    Option 26 is used to set the display to cycle through various weights for use as a demo unit without connecting to an indicator.

  2. Intensity
    Option 27 is used to set the LED intensity to low (OFF) or High (ON). See Section 4 for an alternative way to set the intensity.

  3. Siemens
    Option 28 enables the remote display to use a Siemens Milltronics BW500 Integrator and will direct the remote into a Siemens Sub Menu. Siemens Sub Menu Options may be downlaoded at www.matko.com/siemens

  4. Hardware Test
    Option 29 enables the remote display to test the serial ports by adding jumper wires. Test the RS232 connection with a jumper between RXD and TXD or test Current Loop with 2 jumpers between RX CL(+) to TX CL(+) and RX CL(-) to TX CL(-). If the display shows either “Bad 0” or “Bad 1” then there is a problem with hardware.

Stoplight

**The Stoplight Requires that options 21 and 22 be set for the desired configuration***
Pin 2 (GND) can be shared with the Stoplight and RS232 Signal Ground.

Switch
Option 21 = 1
Option 22 = 1
Connect a dry contact switch between pins 13 and pin 2 (GND).

Circuit Logic:
Open = Red, Closed = Green
Single Line TTL
Option 21 = 1
Option 22 = 1
Connect a TTL Output to Pin 13 and reference a common Ground from the transmitting device to Pin 2 (GND).

Circuit Logic TTL:
High = Red, Low = Green

Dual Line TTL (Open On)
Option 21 = 2
Option 22 = 2
Connect TTL Green Control Line to pin 13
Connect TTL Red Control Line to pin 14
Reference a common Ground between the display and outputting device.

Result
High turns Light On, Low turns Light Off

Dual Line TTL (Closed On)
Option 21 = 3
Option 22 = 3
Connect TTL Green Control Line to pin 13
Connect TTL Red Control Line to pin 14
Reference a common Ground between the display and outputting device.

Result
High turns Light Off, Low turns Light On

Momentary Green
Option 21 = 4
Option 22 = ####
Connect a switch between Ground and Pin 13. When pin 13 goes low the light will toggle from red to green and remain green for a certain number of data streams set with Option 22, then will go back to red.

Momentary Red
Option 21 = 5
Option 22 = ###
Connect a switch between Ground and Pin 14. When pin 14 goes low the light will toggle from green to red and remain red for a certain number of data streams set with Option 22, then will go back to green.

ASC II Control
Option 21 = Any ASCII character from 06(ACK) to 127(DEL) for the Red light.
Option 22 = Any ASCII character from 06(ACK) to 127(DEL) for the Green light.
*Both options 21 and 22 must be set to a value of 6 or higher. Setting only one option will cause the remote to ignore ASCII control codes.

Result
When the character set in option 21 is in the data stream the Red light will be on.
If the character is not in the data stream then the Red light will be off.
When the character set in option 22 is in the data stream the Green light will be on.
If the character is not in the data stream then the Green light will be off.
*When option 2 is set to 2 the stoplight will be controlled by the appropriate status byte.
Setting options 21 and 22 will over ride the Toledo option byte.

Serial Traffic Commands
Option 21 = 0
Option 22 = 4
The Serial Traffic commands can be used to set the traffic lights with one time commands. Unlike the standard ASCII Control which controls the traffic lights via a character constantly within the stream, this option will set the traffic light based on the command code sent once and then that state will hold until a new command is sent. The command character must be within a set data stream format. If Option 11 is set then the command code must be after the addressable character and must be before the end character set as option 15. The command may be sent as a part of a larger stream including weight or in a simple two character stream of command character followed by the end character. The four command characters are:

  • DC1 (Decimal 17) = Turn Red Light On
  • DC2 (Decimal 18) = Turn Green Light On
  • DC3 (Decimal 19) = Turn Both Lights Off
  • DC4 (Decimal 20) = Turn Both Light On

Axle System Programming
There are three types of programs to select from to control traffic to receive axle weights and totals.

  • A simple Axle Scale
  • An Inbound Truck Scale (driving on)
  • An Outbound Truck Scale (driving off )

The general rule for all systems is a green light means the remote is ready to accept the next axle.
A red light means to come to a stop when the next axle is in position.

Axle Scale Program – Use only with axle scales
Set Option 21 = 0
Set Option 22 = 6

Sequence of Operations

  • Scale is at zero with a green light.

  • Truck pulls on first axle. The light will turn red signaling to stop when the axle is in position.
    Once stable it will display “A-1” for axle 1 then will show the weight.

  • The light will turn green to signal ready for next axle.

  • Truck will pull on each additional axle on the scale one at a time. The light will turn red to signal stop when axle is in position, display “A-N” for the axle number then the weight.

  • After the last axle is weighed and the truck pulls off the display will show “total” then the total weight of all axles.

  • The system will then reset for the next truck with a green light.

Inbound Truck Scale Program – Use with a full truck scale Set Option 21 = 0
Set Option 22 = 7

Sequence of Operations

  • Scale is at zero with a green light.
  • Truck pulls on first axle. The light will turn red signaling to stop when the axle is in position. Once stable it will display “A-1” for axle 1 then will show the weight.
  • The light will turn green to signal ready for next axle.
  • Truck will pull on each additional axle on the scale one at a time. The light will turn red to signal stop when axle is in position, display “A-N” for the axle number then the weight.
  • After the last axle is weighed and the truck remains on the scale. The display will show “total” then the total weight of all axles.
  • The system will then reset for the next truck with a green light.

Outbound Truck Scale Program – Use with a full truck scale
Set Option 21 = 0
Set Option 22 = 8
.

Sequence of Operations

  • Scale is at zero with a green light.
  • Truck pulls all the way onto the scale. The light will go red signaling stop when in position. After the scale is stable it will display “total” then display the total weight.
  • The light will turn green to signal ready to remove the next axle.
  • Truck pulls off first axle. The light will turn red signaling to stop when the axle is in position. Once stable it will display “A-1” for axle 1 then will show the weight.
  • Truck will pull off each additional axle on the scale one at a time. The light will turn red to signal stop when axle is in position, display “A-N” for the axle number then the weight.
  • After the truck pulls off the scale and the last axle is displayed the system will reset and the light will turn green.

Transceiver Setup

B-TEK-SBL-2 SUPERBRIGHT-LED-Remote-Display -10 Figure 2 – XT300 Transceiver

  1. Set the upper 5 DIP switches on the transceiver to the same baud rate as the indicator. If all switches are set to off or more than one switch is turned on then the unit will default to 9600 baud
  2. Set the dip switch 1 to 4 on the transceiver for a system ID. There are 16 possible system IDs available 0 (all off ) to 15 (all on). If more than one wireless system are present each system requires a unique ID

Trouble Shooting

General Purpose Solution:
Set the transmitting device to 1200 BAUD; 8 data bits; no parity. Make sure the data stream contains 6 weight characters followed by a carriage return, line feed or end of text. Set the display to factory default and re-learn the display.

The red LED is on and the display reads “NoData”.
Communication was lost.

Suggestions:
Make sure the indicator is powered on.
Make sure the indicator port is enabled to transmit data continuously.
Make sure the wiring is correct. (The corresponding green LED should blink with every data transmission).

If data delay between data streams is greater than 2 seconds, turn on option 4.

The unit displays the incorrect digits.

Suggestions:
Try shifting the data to the right or left.
Lower the BAUD rate, default the unit, and re-learn
