LoadCell module problem

[perry p]

I have a IO-LC3 with a vision 290 and the two have been working great together for about 6 months.

The other day the 290 wasn't displaying weight. I looked at the module status and I have a

status of (4) I have looked in all of the help files and there is no status (4) documented.

Could you please tell me what this message is?

Thanks

Perry

Hi Pery,

It's a bitmap. value 4 means, that the third bit is active: 00..00100 bin. Bit 3, according to the help, means, that the loadcell is not callibrated.

Please note - LC1/3 has no baterry and after callibrating you need ot perform Save to EEPROM. If not, afgter power lost the settings, including callibration will be loast.

Save to EEPROM is command. It's quite good practice to check if the command is executed properly.

Maybe this will give you some tip how to get out of the problem you face...
