OVERVIEW
The EFS100TS automatic gain-in-weight batching system is controlled by a
microprocessor device that includes a load cell converter-display.
The microprocessor device consists of a electronic device with color 4.3” graphic
display, touch screen functionality and input/output module can-bus driver.
The display normally shows the actual weight, tare condition, exact zero, no motion
weight, actual recipe and batching functional status and settings.
Batching cycles are fully automatic. the microprocessor controls and manages the
various phases of the batching process, such as automatic zeroing before starting
the cycle, high velocity filling and fine finishing, and lastly removal of bags.
All process parameters are programmable through the graphic keyboard.
The front panel of the device contains the graphic display, as soon as the power on
execution has finished the display shows the version of the software page:

MAIN MENU
Press on Weight Indicator soft pushbutton to enter, the display shows the main
menu:
The items EJECT, FILL, CLEAN are direct commands for the packer machine,
MAINTENANCE permits the output forcing (see later).
Access to items is gained by pressing a dedicated soft key. A message referring to
the relevant function will be shown on the display, a soft keyboard appears and the
operator is prompted to enter data or to make selections; in both cases the operator
must type some digits on the soft keyboard.
Example:
During any data entry, it should be remembered that:
1 - The “ ” and “ ” keys move the cursor forward and backward, respectively, of
one character; used to modify or correct data.
2 - The “↵” key confirms displayed data.
3 - Some functions feature control limits (upper and lower) for the entered values. In
this case after confirmation the following messages are displayed: "Too High" if the
entered value exceeds the upper limit or "Too Low" if it is below the lower limit. The
operator must press the “↵” key and repeat data entry.
4 - Usually the keyboard make digits, for insert alphabetical text it must hit the
“ALPHA” (“.”) key, followed by the desired character key as many time as showed by
the table below. It’s possible to move the cursor in the text row by “ ” and “ ” keys.

At the end of insert it must hit the “↵” key.

To choose the desired function press the corresponding key (1,2 ...) followed
by the “↵” key; to cancel the function the operator shall merely press the “↵” key.
Press the menu EXIT pushbutton to return to the main page.

OPERATION
After switching on, the software version appears on the display for about 2 seconds.
During this time the instrument runs a complete test on the card, and if errors are
found, it displays and error message.
The test (also carried out during normal function) includes a check on the power
supply, program memory, RAM memory, the A/D converter and the FLASH memory
containing all parameters (function and calibration) that must be saved when the
instrument is not powered up.
If no errors are detected, after the switch on message, the instrument checks the
displays, after about few seconds, shows the main page, the scale displays the gross
weight and is ready for use.
If the gross weight is negative by over 50 divisions, the display shows the error
message "Underrange".
If the weight exceeds the end scale by more than the maximum admissible value of
+9 divisions, the display shows the error message "Overrange".
The program of the instrument uses variable integration over several measurements
to display the weight. If the scale is moving the display shows the instantaneous
value of the most recent measurement, whereas when still, the displayed value is the
result of the last 8 measurements. With scale in no motion state the " " icon
lights on.

There are 6 alarm states and 1 test state:
Stop for Weight Alarm (BLOCKED-FAULTS) 17

Stop for Timeout (BLOCKED-TIMEOUT) 18
Stop for Out of Tolerance (BLOCKED-OUT TOLER) 19
Stop for Breaker Off (BLOCKED-BREAKER OFF) 20
Stop for Loss Weight (BLOCKED-LOSS WEIGHT) 26
Stop for Bad Init Weight (BLOCKED BAG WEIGHT 27
Input Output Test 21

After switching on, the scale reaches state 1 and stands-by for the START signal.
This signal is only given after the bag has been inserted on the filler spout.
With START enabled, the scale activates the BAG LOCK and secures the bag to the
spout, and moves on the state 2.
After the programmable BAG PRESENT CHECK DELAY time, the system checks for
the BAG PRESENT signal, and the cycle moves on to state 3, for tare setting, which
cancels the weight of the bag.
If the Gross Weight is out of minimum-maximum limit (programmable value) the

system goes in alarm state ( 27-BLOCKED BAG WEIGHT ), and the user must reset
the cycle.
In the BAG present signal is not present, the system returns to state 1. Note that this
signal is monitored throughout the batching cycle, until the bag is released. If the
signal is lost during any phase of the cycle, the system immediately returns to state
1. Also note that the tare is set only if the weight on the spout does NOT exceed the
programmed “Minimum Weight”, otherwise it is considered as resuming (with manual
filling command) a batching cycle previously interrupted due to a power-out, and the
system immediately moves on to filling state.
After setting tare, the system moves on to state 4 with activation of the inflatable
sleeve (SLEEVE output), which clamps the bag, and the spout feeder shutter is fully
opened (FAST FILL and FINE FILL outputs activated).
On reaching the “TURBINE START DELAY” time the system moves on to state 5,
activating the material feed turbine (TURBINE output). The bag filling starts at this
point. Before moving on to state 4 the system checks the “SPOUT CLEAN AT
START CYCLE” parameter, if this is 1 as programmed the system shifts to state 10
(spout cleaning), after which time (see later), the system moves to state 4.
If the bag does not exceed the set “Minimum Weight” within the programmed
“FILLING START CHECK” time, the system executes the last part of the tipping
phase (state 13) and returns to state 1.
If the minimum weight is exceeded, the system moves on to state 6, rapid filling, and
the outputs of the previous state remain active until reaching the slow-down value, at
which the system shifts to state 8. In state 6 the system also checks whether the
“TURBINE STOP TIME” has a value other than zero, then on reaching the
“TURBINE STOP” value it moves on to state 7 for the set time. In this state the
turbine stops to permit depressurization of the bag. After this time the system returns
to state 6 or state 8, according to the effective batch value.
In state 8 the FAST FILL output is disabled and the FINE FILL output enabled, so the
material feeder shutter is partially closed causing a reduction in material flow-rate.
If the system does not shift to state 8 within the programmed “FILLING CYCLE
CHECK” time, a fast fill TIMEOUT alarm activates and the system shifts immediately
to state 18. The only way to exit state 18 is by pressing the RESET key.
Likewise, if the final weight is not reached in state 8 within the same “FILLING
CYCLE CHECK” time, the system shifts immediately to state 18.

If the weight is reached before the end of the above time, the TURBINE, SLEEVE
and FINE FILL outputs are disabled and the system shifts to state 9, or batching end.
From this state the system moves to state 10, spout cleaning, if the “SOUT
CLEANING AT END CYCLE” parameter is enabled. If not it shifts directly to state 11.
In state 10, the SPOUT CLEANING output is enabled for the programmed “SPOUT
CLEANING TIME”, after which the system moves on to state 11. In this state it
awaits activation of the DISCHARGING input. After this it moves to state 12, to check
whether the weight is within the set tolerance range. If the weight (for three
consecutive time) is out of tolerance the system see for the “WRONG BAG FLAG":
if it is programmed to 0 (default value) the system shifts to state 14: UNLOCK BAG
and displays a message alarm: "BAG OUT OF LIMIT".
If the flag is at 1, the system shifts to state 19, from which exit is only possible by
pressing the RESET key.
Else if the weight is within the range, the system moves to state 13, and deactivates
the BAG LOCK output. In both cases the weight is recorded and made available to
any supervision systems.
After the “DISCHARGING DELAY” time, the system moves on to state 14 activating
the DISCHARGING output. In this state it waits for activation of the SADDLE UP
input, upon which it shifts to state 15 activating the DISCHARGING and SADDLE
outputs for the programmed “DISCHARGING TIME”.
The system then moves to state 16 (the last state of the batching cycle), and waits
for the weight to return below the set minimum, or the bag is effectively emptied,
before returning to state 1.
If WEIGHT ALARMS triggers during the cycle, all outputs are disabled and the
system shifts immediately to state 17, from which exit is only possible by pressing the
RESET key.
In weight tolerance check state 12, the system reads the weight obtained after
automatically correcting for the quantity of material still dropping. The correction is
applied, or not applied, according to the value of the automatic correction parameter.
REFILLING CYCLE:
When the weight is checked, if it is less then the lower tolerance, and if the refilling is
enabled, it starts the refilling cycle that is formed of N (programmable) cycles. Before
starting of refilling cicle, the correction is stored in recipe parameters.
At every cycle, FAST FILL and FINE FILL output are activated, after the Turbine
delay the Turbine out is activated for N (programmable) pulses. On and Off pulse
time are programmable. At the end of every cycle, and after the weight stabilization
time, if the weight has exceeded the lower tolerance, the refilling stops, else a new
cycle is generated until the ending of programmed cycles. In any case the system
moves to state 12.

AUTOMATIC COARSE ► FINE SWITCHING ADJUSTEMENT
Regulation depends by four programmable recipe parameters:
1. 02.PreSet: This is the upper threshold value ( WH = Set - PreSet) beyond which
in any case the system switch in Fine Feed
2. 16.PreSetSp: This is the lower threshold value ( WL = Set - PreSetSp) below
which still works in Coarse Feed
3. 62.TIM to PreSetSp: (T1) represents the minimum estimated time required for the
achievement of the lower threshold (WL) under conditions of fast flow rate
(Coarse Feed)
4. 63.TIM to PreSet: (T2) represents the maximum time expected for the
achievement of the lower threshold (WL) under conditions of slow flow rate
(Coarse Feed)
The system begins to work in Coarse Flow: when it reaches the lower threshold
(WL), the time from the start is stored -->TS: there are several possibilities:
1) The time (TS) is lower than T1 → immediately we switch in Fine Feed rate
2) The time (TS) is greater than T2 → We switch when the threshold (WH) is
exceeded
3) The time (TS) is between T1 and T2 → the switch level is calculated by the
following formula:
threshold switch level= WL +( (WH – WL) * (TS – T1)/(T2-T1))
In this way linearly adjust the trigger threshold as a function of the flow velocity.

ALARMS
The system generates two classes of alarms: WEIGHT ALARMS and FILLING
CYCLE ALARMS and are displayed with a messages on the weight area or filling
status areas of the display.
WEIGHT ALARMS
This class includes errors generated by malfunctions in electronic cards and/or load
cells, if the scale is in a filling cycle when an alarm occurs, the system shifts
immediately to state 17.
The alarms in this class are:
"CONVERTER ERROR":
A/D converter error, or load cell cable broken or disconnected.
"POWER SUPPLY":
power alarm, check power supplies on EF10TS card.
"RAM MEMORY":
RAM memory error (data memory), replace card.
"DATA LOST": parameter loss with back-up battery error. This error can occur only
on switching on in 2 cases:
1 – on first-time starting, in this case simply program the scale or load the
defaults data.
2 – after first-time switch on, it is necessary to replace the RAM memory
battery and reset scale parameters.
"FLASH MEMORY":
FLASH memory error (program memory), try to reload graphics and
application programs, if doesn’t succeed replace the card
"CAN BUS ERR.AD: 1":
I/O error, check DR16 input/output card and can bus cable
"UNDERRANGE":
underweight, the gross weight value is less than 50 divisions with respect to
instrumental zero.
"OVERRANGE" :
overweight, the gross weight value is greater than 9 divisions with respect to
end scale.
"ERRPR2" :
LASH memory content incorrect (may also be due to a programming error),
recalibrate the scale.
"ERR Po" :
test number error, the test number is more than 1 division over the number
saved during calibration. Recalibrate the scale.
"ERR P-" :
test number error, the test number is less than 1 division under the number
saved during calibration. Recalibrate the scale.
The last two alarms can only appear after the test number test, for about three
seconds, after which they generate a “CONVERTER ERROR” type alarm.
If the batch is already started and the machine is in cycle state 17, press RESET,
pushbutton once the cause is remedied, and manually reset the bag.

FILLING CYCLE ALARMS
Filling cycle alarms can only occur during filling and are:
- alarms for expiry of a set time, or TIMEOUT ALARMS. These occur when in any
state of the cycle the set maximum time for that state is exceeded. In general due to
product feed failure.
- out-of-tolerance alarms, when the real weight obtained after filling exceeds the set
tolerance limits.
Both types of alarm cause immediate interruption of the filling cycle and shift to an
alarm state, as previously described. The weight display continues to show the real
weight while the monitor shows:
• " BLOCKED-TIMEOUT ": Filling timeout.

• " BLOCKED-OUT TOLER ": Tolerance error
• " BLOCKED-LOSS WEIGHT": Loss of bag weight
• " BLOCKED-BREAKER OFF ": Breaker of turbine is off
• " BLOCKED-BAG WEIGHT ": Start Gross weight out of limit
To silence these types of alarm, press the RESET pushbutton.

If timeout alarm " BLOCKED-TIMEOUT " is active, it means that the batch has not
been completed but has exceeded minimum weight, so, once the cause of the fault
is found and remedied, filling may resume without removing the bag. Indeed, if the
weight on the spout is greater than the set minimum, the tare is not calculated and
the system shifts immediately to fast filling.
If out-of-tolerance alarm " BLOCKED-OUT TOLER " is active, the batch is outside
the allowed tolerance, so it is necessary to remove the bag by hand, before pressing
RESET. It is also necessary to check function of the material shutter, since low
speed feed failure could be the probable cause of the error.
The " BLOCKED-LOSS WEIGHT" alarm usually happen when the bag become
broken.

pushbutton. The command is only executed in scale still conditions. It zeroes the
weight display and lights the Net weight icon indicating that the display shows net
weight. Tare subtraction applies to the entire scale, and is determined with the
precision of the internal counters, greater than 10 per visible division.
With tare entered, and any load applied, to display the current tare value, press the
User message. To pressing Exact zero or Gross/Net icons cancels the tare and
returns to gross weight condition, ( see Display, Control and Setting Device) The tare
value is automatically entered at begin of the load filling execution cycle and is
automatically zeroed at the end of the load filling execution cycle, when the weight
returns to below the PR.82.Pre-batching threshold.

It is only possible to zero AFTER calibration, as a zero adjustment. The instrument

must be calibrated with a point at 0, otherwise the error message described below
appears.
The initial zero range is equal to 10% of maximum load capacity.
If this value is exceeded, zeroing is not possible and the Dead Load message
“DEADLOAD ERROR” appears on the display.

CONVERTER MONITOR
From the CALIBRATION MENU Press “6”, the display shows the converter value:
Converter unfiltered, converter filtered
Remember :
1. the converter value with 0 mV signal input (for instance with a load cell connected
but without dead load) is about 500.000,
2. The converter with 10mV signal input is about 999.999, this value is for instance
a signal of load cell with full load applied and factor of 2mV/V.
3. If the load cell has 200kg full scale and 2mV/V, typical converter values are:
Converter value Weight applied (kg)

500.000 (+/- 5%) 0
625.000 (+/- 5%) 50
750.000 (+/- 5%) 100
875.000 (+/- 5%) 150
999.999 (+/- 5%) 200

Press "◄┘", the internal converter value appears on the display, expressed in
numbers in the range between 500.000 and 999.999. If the scale is empty, the
converter number is between 600.000 and 800.000, if it is loaded with weight equal
to full scale, the converter number is between 700.000 and 900.000 (see
CONVERTER MONITOR).

The operator can calibrate 2 points, zero and full scale. The zero point must be
calibrated, whereas the full scale point is not mandatory. Remember that the
calibration is more precise the greater is the distance between the two extremes.
Do not set two points that are to near to each other: the distance must be greater
than 150 division otherwise, when exiting the procedure, the caption “ERRPR2”
appears indicating that calibration is incorrect.
For the calibration, the program offers a series of values that are easy to set:
0 kg, 20 kg.
However, any value in kg may be set with the soft keyboard, press "◄┘" and
proceed as follows:
a) "PNT 1", or calibration point 1, appears on the display:
Press "◄┘" and the value 0 is proposed:
Unload the scale, and confirm the sample value 0,

VERIFICATION STANDARDS
VERIFICATION
The following table reports the maximum permissible deviation for each fill, in
accordance with OIML R61 (2004 Ed.), for the foreseen tests during the first and
periodic verification:
Batch weight Maximum allowed discard for each weight from the
(g) preset value
Class X(1) First Verification Periodic Verification
F ≤ 50 7.2 % 9%
50 < F ≤ 100 3.6 g 4.5 g
100 < F ≤ 200 3.6 % 4.5 %
200 < F ≤ 300 7.2 g 9g
300 < F ≤ 500 2.4% 3%
500 < F ≤ 1000 12 g 15 g
1000 < F ≤ 10000 1.2 % 1.5 %
10000 <F ≤ 15000 120 g 150 g
15000 < F ≤ 0.8% 1%
Table 1
In the system verification procedure the weight of the following number of fills are
measured, depending on the preset value (Fp):
Fp ≤ 1 kg 60 fills
1 kg < Fp ≤ 10 kg 30 fills
10 kg < Fp ≤ 25 kg 20 fills
25 kg < Fp 10 fills
Table 2
The scale used to measure the dose weights has to have a suitable definition value,
equal to at least 1/3 of the maximum allowed discard (difference between batch
weight and the preset value). Such a scale has to be previously verified by the use of
certified sample weights so as to prove the correct conditions.
