 INTRODUCTION
LC300 is housed in a holder to be hooked directly on DIN / OMEGA. The coupling is designed for
use with DIN rails (EN60715).
LC300 is a redundant system for the limitation of the load, manufactured in compliance with the Perfor-
mance Level PL d, according to ISO standard EN13849-1, corresponding to the Safety Integrity Level
(SIL 2 IEC 62061).

Table of correspondence PL-SIL

Through the programming of 2 levels (pre-alarm and alarm) the load detected is constantly checked and
eventually the lockout relay is activated. Other possible alarm conditions are monitored: imbalance of
the 2 acquisition channels, load cells connections missing, incorrect power supply, self-diagnosis. The
instrument also has two optional analog outputs with a working range 4÷20mA, respectively associated
with the two weight acquisition channels.
Each channel has a separate logic. Both channels are verified an independent “watchdog” (category
3 according to EN13849). Each channels is provided with: a ADC converter that acquires the signal
of the load cell, a microcontroller that receives the data from the ADC, two control relays.
Each microcontroller has a “watchdog” interior, an external voltage monitor and data memory (EEPROM).
Both microcontrollers are monitored by an independent extra “watchdog” able to send the alarm relay
in case the system does not work properly. The diagnostic system also provides continuous monitoring
of the load cell cables and indicates a possible anomaly. Furthermore, if the analog or digital power
supplies come out from the operation fields a specific alarm condition is determined. If there were no
conditions to work correctly, the relays would be immediately put in an alarm state (de-energized).
The parameter settings are made through four mechanical buttons and the visualization is on 4 red
display (7-segment red LED 7mm). Each relay has a LED to indicate its status.

LOAD CELLS CONNECTION
The load cell cable must not be channeled with other cables, but
must follow their own path. The instrument can be connected up to
a maximum of four load cells 350Ω in parallel for each measuring
channel. The supply voltage of the cells is 4 VDC and is protected
by a temporary short circuit. The measuring range of the instrument
involves the use of load cells with a sensitivity of up to 3.9 mV/V. The

 DISPLAY INDICATIONS
The display check is done when switching the instrument on. Then it appears an identification code of
the software and its version. It is important to communicate this code in case of request for assistance. If
during the ignition of the instrument the operating alarm are not recognized, a contacts initial test is done

During this phase, the relays are energized to verify proper opera-
pr.16 tion. The test of the contacts is run in 4 phases:
1. Check the condition of the opening of the contacts.

rE.00 2. Check the prealarm contact closure referred to the MICRO 1,

and the contact lockouting referred to the micro 2.
3. Control the operation of the “watchdog”, during this phase the
closed contacts at point 2 are opened for a short period.
4. Check the closure of the lockouting contact referred to the micro-1
and the prealarm contact referred to the micro-2.

REPORTING ERRORS
In this operating mode, the display may report the following error codes.
Normally, the display indicates current measure of the load cells. In this condition, you can start a
procedure for programming the instrument.

WEIGHT NOT VALID WHEN SWITCHING ON

---- At switching on, before the acquisition of the signal and awaiting
the execution of the automatic zero weight, the display shows a
message of invalid weight.

REPORTING OF OVERLOAD
~~~~ When the gross weight exceeds by more than 9 divisions the ma-
ximum capacity of the weighing system, or when the weight value
is greater than the maximum value displayable, the screen displays
this message.

The analog output signal is updated at a frequency of 2 Hz 3 4

At the analog output signal is applied the same filter used for the
weight display value.
In case of normal operation mode (no alarm detected), both analog
outputs operate with the average value of the weight (arithmetic
average of the two channels weight). In the presence of the alarms,
the weight average is not calculated, the analog outputs work in-
dividually with the weight value of the corresponding cell channel.
When the weight exceeds the programmed full scale, the analog
output takes a value greater than the full scale value of the analog
output up to a limit value (saturation).
When the weight is negative, the output takes a value lower than
the zero value, up to a limit value (saturation).
