For the first time an exceptionally high performance load cell controller is available at a panel meter price

Combining this input module with the functionality of the Tiger 320 Series 32-bit operating system results in a versatile, powerful controller. Now such tasks as weighing, bagging, batching, and continuous batching control can be performed.

In fact our customers have replaced multi-faceted control systems including weighing controllers, PLCs and timers with a single 320 Series controller.

Smart Setup Registers

The meter uses three smar t input modules. ISS3 and ISS4 require only smart register 1 to be configured.

t setup registers to configure all smar

These modules produce six output registers. One of these registers can be transferred to channel 1 via Code 2, the same or another register to Channel 2 via Code 4, the same or another register to Channel 3 via Code 5, and the same or another register to Channel

4 via Code 6.
