Bridge Excitation
This jumper is used to select bridge excitation voltage level. Use the 5 V
excitation with high output (3 mV/V) bridges, so that the higher sensitivity 24
mV range can be used. Using the 5 V excitation also reduces bridge power
consumption compared to the 10 V excitation. A maximum of four 350 ohm
load cells can be driven by the internal bridge excitation voltage.

6.1.2 USER INPUT / FUNCTION KEY PARAMETERS (USEr)

This section details the programming for the rear terminal User Inputs and front panel Function Keys. Three user inputs are individually programmable to perform
specific unit control functions. While in the Display Mode, the function is executed when the user input transitions to the active state. (Refer to the user input
specifications for response times.) Certain User input functions are disabled in Programming Mode. Two front panel function keys, ! and @, are also individually
programmable to perform specific unit control functions. While in the Display Mode, the primary function is executed when the key is pressed. Holding the ! or
@ function key for three seconds executes a secondary function. It is possible to program a secondary function without a primary function. The front panel key
functions are disabled while in Programming Mode.
In most cases, if more than one user input and/or function key is programmed for the same function, the maintained (level trigger) actions will be performed while
at least one of those user inputs or function keys are activated. The momentary (edge trigger) actions are performed every time any of those user inputs or function
keys transition to the active state.
The List user function has a value assignment sublist, which appears when the P key is pressed and LISt is selected. The function will only be performed for the
assignment values selected as YES. If a user input or function key is configured for a function with a sublist, then that sublist will need to be scrolled through each
time to access the remaining user inputs or function keys following the sublist.
Note: In the following explanations, not all selections are available for both user inputs and front panel function keys. Displays are shown with each selection. Those
selections showing both displays are available for both. If a display is not shown, it is not available for that selection. In the parameter explanations, USEr-n represents
all user inputs. Fn represents both function keys and second function keys.

List A/B status can be shown on the Line 2 display. The display loops described below are used to view, reset and modify the selected display values, based on the
Line 2 Value Access setting programmed for each available value.

Main Display Loop

In the Main display loop, the selected values can be consecutively read on Line 2 by pressing the D key. A left justified 2, 3 or 4-character mnemonic indicates which
Line 2 value is currently shown. When in the Main display loop, the Function keys ! and @ perform the User functions programmed in the User Input program
section.

Parameter Display Loop and Hidden Parameter Loop

These display loops provide quick access to selected parameters that can be viewed and modified on Line 2 without having to enter Full Programming Mode. These
values include Parameter List A/B selection, Setpoints and Display Settings (color, intensity and contrast). To utilize the Parameter or Hidden Parameter display loops,
a security code (1-250) must be programmed. (See Programming Security Code at the end of this section.)
The Parameter display loop is accessed by pressing the P key. The selected Parameter display loop values can be viewed and/or changed per the Line 2 Value Access
setting programmed for each available value. The Hidden Parameter loop follows the Parameter display loop, and can only be accessed when the correct security code
is entered at the Code prompt.

Serial Communications Overview

The PAX2 supports serial communications using the optional serial communication cards or via the USB programming port located on the side of the unit. When
USB is being used (connected), the serial communication card is disabled. When using the standard RS232 and RS485 PAX option cards, the PAX2 supports both the
RLC protocol and also supports Modbus communications. The PAX Modbus option card should not be used with the PAX2, as the PAX2 internal Modbus protocol
supports complete unit configuration, and is much more responsive.

 PAX2S Frequently Used Modbus Registers
Only frequently used registers are shown below. The entire Modbus Register Table can be found at www.redlion.net.
The following is an example of the necessary query and corresponding response for holding register 2. In this example register 2 is the decimal value 123.
Query: 01 03 00 01 00 01 D5 CA
Response: 01 03 02 00 7B F8 67
Notes:
1. The PAX registers can be read as holding (4x) or input (3x) registers.
2. For a value spanning two registers, the portion of the value less than 65,535 will be in (Lo word) register and the portion of the value greater than 65,535 will
continue into (Hi word) register. Negative values are represented by two’s complement of the combined (Hi word) and (Lo word).
3. The PAX2 should not be powered down while parameters are being changed. Doing so may result in an in-complete write to the non-volatile memory and produce
checksum errors.

COMMAND RESPONSE TIME Timing Diagrams
The unit can only receive data or transmit data at any one time (half-duplex
operation). When sending commands and data to the unit, a delay must be NO REPLY FROM UNIT
imposed before sending another command. This allows enough time for the unit
to process the command and prepare for the next command. Command Unit
At the start of the time interval t1, the computer program prints or writes the String Response
string to the com port, thus initiating a transmission. During t1, the command Transmission Time
characters are under transmission and at the end of this period, the command Ready t1 t2 Ready

expected, the unit is ready to accept another command. Command Unit
If the unit is to reply with data, the time interval t2 is controlled by the use of String Response
the command terminating character and the Serial Transmit Delay parameter Transmission Time
(dELAY). The standard command line terminating character is “*”. This Ready t1 t2 t3 Ready
terminating character results in a response time window of the Serial Transmit
Delay time (dELAY) plus 15 msec. maximum. The dELAY parameter should be Command First Reply
programmed to a value that allows sufficient time for the release of the sending Terminator Character Transmission
driver on the RS485 bus. Terminating the command line with “$” results in a Received of Reply Time
response time window (t2) of 2 msec minimum and 15 msec maximum. The
response time of this terminating character requires that sending drivers release
within 2 msec after the terminating character is received.
At the beginning of time interval t3, the unit responds with the first character
of the reply. As with t1, the time duration of t3 is dependent on the number of
characters and baud rate of the channel.
t3 = (10 * # of characters) / baud rate.
At the end of t3, the unit is ready to receive the next command. The
maximum serial throughput of the unit is limited to the sum of the times t1, t2
and t3.

COMMUNICATION FORMAT
Data is transferred from the unit through a serial communication channel. In
serial communications, the voltage is switched between a high and low level at
a predetermined rate (baud rate) using ASCII encoding. The receiving device
reads the voltage levels at the same intervals and then translates the switched
levels back to a character.
The voltage level conventions depend on the interface standard. The table
lists the voltage levels for each standard.
LOGIC INTERFACE STATE RS232* RS485*

transmitted. Since the sending and receiving devices operate at the same Stop bit
transmission speed (baud rate), the data is read without timing errors. The last character transmitted is the stop bit. The stop bit provides a single bit
period pause to allow the receiver to prepare to re-synchronize to the start of a
new transmission (start bit of next byte). The receiver then continuously looks
for the occurrence of the start bit. If 7 data bits and no parity is selected, then 2
stop bits are sent from the PAX.
