 1.2. Safety Precautions
To use the AD-4961 checkweigher safely, read the following precautions before use.

Hazard of rotating object

・ Keep hands and fingers away from the rotating part while the checkweigher is running.
・ If the product accumulates, falls over or spills on the checkweigher, stop the checkweigher immediately, turn the
power off and take necessary actions.

Hazard of electrical shock

・ Be sure to turn the power off before removing the display cover or control box cover for inspection.
・ Keep the power turned off during the inspection.
・ Turn the power on after the installation has been complete.

Precautions for installation

・ Install the checkweigher on a solid surface away from sources of vibration.
・ Install the checkweigher in an area where it is not exposed to direct sunlight.
・ Install the checkweigher in an area where it is not subject to direct flow from the window, electric fan or air
conditioner.

Grounding
・ Be sure to ground the checkweigher to avoid electrical shock, fire or malfunction.

Precautions for use

・ Do not apply shock or excessive external force to the infeed and weighing conveyors.
・ Do not apply a load exceeding the weighing capacity to the weighing conveyor.
・ Do not modify or disassemble the checkweigher. Do not change the parts.
・ Be sure to level the checkweigher.
・ Feed the product to be weighed into the checkweigher at a constant interval.

Cooling the checkweigher

To avoid the checkweigher overheat, be sure to allow enough clearance from other devices.
If the temperature surrounding the checkweigher exceeds the specified operating temperature range, take
necessary measures such as cooling the checkweigher using a fan.

registered.

16
 4.2. Turning the Power ON
1. Turn the power switch 90 degrees clockwise to the ON (I)
position.

Fig.10 Power switch

2. After the checkweigher startup, the Weighing screen

appears.

Fig.11 Weighing screen (Initial screen)

17
 4.3. Turning the Power OFF
1. Turn the power switch 90 degrees counterclockwise to turn
off and stop the checkweigher.

Note:
For emergency stop, perform the above operation.
In that case, before turning the power ON again, be sure to
resolve the cause of the stop.

Fig.12 Power switch

18
 4.4. Weighing Operation
This section describes the weighing operation.

Note:
This section is described under the assumption that the product has been registered and set beforehand.
For details about the product registration and setting, refer to “4.6. Selecting the Product / Changing the Detect
Function Settings.”

4.4.1. Changing the weighing value display

In the Weighing screen, touch the display key to change the displaying size and contents of the weighing

values.
Two types of weighing value displaying contents are available: regular and deviation.
The size has also two types: enlarged and reduced.

 Simple summary Belt speed Processing number

Fig.14 Display example (Reduced regular display)

The regular display displays the product weighing value as is, or the value with the tare value subtracted when the
tare value is set.

The deviation display displays the difference between the product weighing value and the target value.
In the deviation display, the deviation mark appears in the weighing value field of the Weighing screen.

The displaying order is as below:

Regular (Enlarged) Regular (Reduced) Deviation (Enlarged) Deviation (Reduced)

4.4.2. Adjusting zero

If the weighing value is not zero (0) when the conveyor is stopped, touch the Re-Zero key to perform zero

adjustment to set the weighing value to zero.

When the weighing value exceeds the zero adjustment range when the conveyor is stopped, zero adjustment cannot
be performed.
Causes of the above situation are:
• There may be foreign substances on the conveyor.
• Foreign substances are collected on the conveyor little by little. And zero adjustment is performed each time.
Now the mass value of the collected foreign substances may exceed the zero adjustment range.
• The weighing conveyor may be in contact with the infeed conveyor or rejector conveyor.

20
 • An excessive load is applied to the conveyor and the load cell is deformed.
• An upward excessive load is applied to the load cell, for example, raising the checkweigher by holding the
conveyor, and the load cell is deformed.

If the weighing value is not zero even after the foreign substances are removed and zero adjustment is performed,
calibration using a weight is required.
When the load cell is deformed within the usable range, calibration using a weight will set the weighing value to zero.
If the weighing value is not zero even after calibration using a weight, replace the weighing conveyor unit

Note:
For details about calibration using a weight, refer to “5.1. Calibrating the Checkweigher Using a Weight.”

4.4.3. Starting / Stopping the weighing operation

Press the START button on the display to move the conveyor to start a weighing operation.
Press the STOP button on the display to stop the conveyor to finish a weighing operation.

21
 4.5. Management Level and User Edition/Login
With the checkweigher, users can be registered and the management level is assigned to each user to limit available
operations.
This section describes the management level, user edition and login procedure.

Note:
・ The checkweigher has default user information registered before shipment as follows:
User name: Admin, Password: 0000 (four zeros), Management level: Administrator
・ To edit a user, the management level of Administrator is required.
To edit an unregistered user, log in by the default user Admin.
・ In the user edition, users can be registered, changed or deleted.

4.5.1. Management level

 9. Modbus Communication
Modbus is a communications protocol developed by Modicon.
Using this, communication with Modbus enabled devices can be performed without special programs.
With the checkweigher, Modbus RTU (a serial communication protocol using the RS-232 or RS-485) and Modbus
TCP (which serial communication is expanded to TCP/IP) can be used.
Using Modbus communication, setting changes, reading the summary data, writing DI and reading the DO status can
be performed.

Note:
・ Only the settings of the product selected for weighing can be changed by Modbus communication.
・ When group numbers or product numbers are changed by Modbus communication, the new settings will be read.
When the number has not been registered, it will be registered before reading.
・ When group numbers or product numbers are changed by Modbus communication, several seconds are
required to confirm the changes.
・ In Modbus communication, the simultaneity of data is not guaranteed.
When, for example, all the data of the address map are read, the time of those data may not be the same.
For weighing results, data for each weighing may not necessarily read.
・ When data is written to the holding register by Modbus communication, the information bar on the upper side of
the screen flashes in green.
・ For connection when Modbus/TCP or Modbus/RTU is used, refer to “7.2. Connecting a LAN” and “7.4.
Connecting to the Serial Interface.”
・ To use Modbus/TCP, the LAN setting of the checkweigher is required. For details, refer to “5.4. Setting LAN.”

85
 9.1. Modbus RTU
1. In the Connection Setting screen, touch the Connection Mode tab to open the screen shown below.
Select “Modbus” to set “Modbus/RTU.”

Note:
・ When the “Modbus” setting is changed, restart the checkweigher to confirm the change.
・ When “Modbus” is set to Modbus/RTU, the setting for the serial mode will be ignored.

Fig.72 Connection Setting screen (with Connection Mode tab selected)

2. Enter the slave address.

3. Touch the Connection tab to open the screen to set the serial communication.
Set “Data bits” to 8.
For details about serial communication settings, refer to “8.14. Connection.”

4. Connect to the serial interface to start communication.

9.2. Modbus TCP

1. In the Connection Setting screen, touch the Connection Mode tab.
Select “Modbus” to set “Modbus/TCP.”

Note:
・ When the “Modbus” setting is changed, restart the checkweigher to confirm the change.

2. Enter the slave address.

3. Connect the LAN cable to start communication.

86
 9.3. Reference Number
In Modbus communications, a reference number and an address are used to instruct the checkweigher or read the
data.
Data types and reference numbers are listed in the table below.

Data type Reference number Description

Output coil Read and write bit data
0
Used to control DI1 to DI8.
Input status Read only bit data
1
Used to monitor DI and DO.
Input register Read only Word data
3
