The scale or display does not turn on.
Make sure that the power cord or power supply is properly connected to the balance/display.
Check that there is power at the socket where you have connected the device.
-
Is the GI650i indicator USB input for keyboard and cursor?
No, the device's USB is configured for use with a keyboard and for data export and import.
-
Does the GI650i indicator database support the creation of fully customised tables?
No, you have to use the conformed CSV format.
-
Does the Gi650 have an option for digital cells, or just analogue?
It has a version for analog load cells and another for digital load cells.
-
Can the GI650 indicator be connected to an ERP?
Not in principle, but it can be weighed under study.
-
Can I download the weights (GI6xx indicators)?
Yes, provided that you choose the product with (optional) USB when ordering.
-
Can I get the signal from the platform directly? Can I have relays that activate? Can I have the signal in mA?
The platform itself must be supplied with a very well regulated voltage to obtain a differential mV voltage (from 0 to 10 mV in most cases) that you have to filter, amplify, convert to weight, etc. All this is done using the indicator.
Once you have the weight on the indicator you can send it by RS-232 that it takes from series, or through RS-485 or Ethernet using the optional boards that it has. This weight is sent with the selected communication protocol for each port. If necessary, for a small fee, customised protocols can be added.
You can also convert the weight signal to analogue again, but this requires much more “power”. This is the case of the optional analogue output, which allows you to have a signal proportional to the weight, either voltage from 0 to 10V or current from 4 to 20mA.
Another option is to add a relay board. This allows, using the "limits" mode, a value to be assigned to each relay, so that they are activated when they reach the designated value. Or, by means of the "Z rel" option where there is a relay (RL1) that is only active if the weight is exactly at the set value and another relay (RL2) that is active until the programmed weight is reached.
-
Do I have to be next to the indicator to use the GIAPP?
No. With the WiFi option, the indicator creates its own network to which an Android device can connect. The average range is approximately 75 metres, depending on the structure of the environment where it is used (walls, metal structures, etc.).
You also have the option of connecting the indicator to the company's WiFi, its range would depend on the company's own WiFi, and could exceed 75 metres from indicator to Android device.
-
Can I use the GIAPP without the WiFi module on my indicator?
Yes, if this one has the Ethernet module. The Ethernet module can be used to connect the indicator to the system's WiFi network, and the indicator can be displayed and controlled via the GIAPP.
