This versatile, rugged,
cost-effective terminal is designed to interface with ticket, tape and
label printers or remote displays, solid state relays, or host computers to
meet a wide range of scale data collection and control requirements.
Input data from vehicle scales, tank scales, industrial scales, counting
scales, and balances all interface with the DT210 data terminal.
The compact, solid-state Model DT210 fits important applications in
transportation, agriculture, mining, construction, material handling,
packaging and manufacturing.
State-of-the-art technology incorporates an alphanumeric keyboard and
dual vacuum fluorescent displays to facilitate data entries and operator
prompting. Cutoff weights or batching formulas may be stored in
memory and used to control valves, dropping measured amounts of product in
jog or fast feed modes. The DT210 may be used in counting and weighing
applications.
In the trucking industry, the DT210 will store tare weights for
each vehicle, and to expedite throughput, customer names and numbers,
rates, shrinkage factors, and taxes may all be stored in memory to
insure rapid, error tree operation. Password protection provides
security against unauthorized access to data or tampering.
The solid, sheet metal enclosure is engineered for rough environments. The
dome switch design of the keyboard provides better tactile feedback than
membrane switches, and is immune to dust and liquid spills. Software
customization is available to fit specific applications or interface
requirements.
FEATURES
A user configurable three ID software structure enables user
definition of labels, rates, and factors.
Summary reporting of totals by ID is available as well as detailed
transaction reporting. These reports may be printed by an adjacent
printer, transmitted to a host computer or may be requested by a remote PC.
Password protection is user selectable to prevent unauthorized
access or data tampering.
The page printer enables the user to format tickets pages from the
keyboard.
Standard memory is 32K RAM, optionally expandable to 96K RAM. The
32K of RAM represents approximately 300 records, with a total of 1300
records available if configured with 96K of RAM. The RAM is non-volatile,
with 168 hour (1 week) battery backup.
There are two displays. An eight digit vacuum fluorescent
numeric display with 0.5" (12.5 mm) characters and a 16 character
vacuum fluorescent alphanumeric display with 0.2" (5.0 mm)
characters.
The 60 position keyboard includes upper case alpha, numeric, 10
dedicated function keys, 10 programmable function keys, plus decimal point,
backspace and clear entry keys.
A battery maintained time and date for up to two weeks without
external power. The clock can be set for AM/PM or 24 hour time.
Two bi-directional serial communication ports and one parallel
Centronics output port are available. Baud rate is selectable from 300
to 9600. the Centronics port may be used to interface with printers or may
be used to provide 8 TTL output lines and 2 TTL input lines.
A BCD to RS232 converter optionally available to permit
interfacing with TTL devices.
A pulse input up to 48 VDC is also available, to accommodate
conveyor scales.
