 Marking
The menu options performed in CONFIGURATION mode and their parameters are marked as:
• OPTION 1 / OPTION 2... / PARAMETER
 Additional documentation
For more information on wiring and installing the optional cards for the i 40BS indicator, refer to document:
• Wiring diagram, 04-55-01 DD.
For more information on the use of the i 40BS indicator:

• User Manual, 04-55-01 MU.
 Recycling
p In compliance with the 2011/65/EU European Directive concerning electric and electronic equipment
waste disposal, this device, including its accessories and batteries must not be disposed of as normal
waste. Please dispose of this device according to your local prescriptions in a separate unit specifically
aimed at electric and electronic equipment.
04-55-01-1 MI 5
Indicator i 40 BS
 Environmental characteristics
The equipment can work at temperatures ranging from -20° to +55°C(4° to 119°F)* and with a moisture level of
10 to 85%, without any condensation under a maximal atmospheric pressure of 795hPa which corresponds to a
2000m altitude. The equipment can be used indoors and outdoors with a pollution degree of 3.
The protection index of the casing is IP66 according to EN 60529 certified by the LCIE.
It works with mains supply of 110 to240V**, 50 to 60Hz, 0,35A.
 Safety
The CEI 61010-1 norm indicates that for devices connected through a power outlet, said outlet must be
installed close to the equipment and easily accessible. The mains cable is used as cut-off device. For equipment
permanently connected to mains, an easily accessible cut-off device must be included to the permanent installation.
Mains voltage must not fluctuate over 10% of its nominal voltage.
Make sure mains connection and the cable type are compliant with the country safety specifications. If the
mains voltage and the type of mains cable plug do not meet the current requirements of the country, please contact
your PRECIA MOLEN agency.
 Electromagnetic compatibility
This equipment has been tested and declared compliant with the limits for Class A digital devices, according to
European regulations, to Section 15 of FCC rules (U.S. Federal Communication Commission) and to Canadian
ICES-003 rules.
These limits aim at providing sufficient protection from interferences when the equipment is used in a
commercial environment. If the equipment is used in a residential area, it can cause interferences. Should this
happen in these circumstances, the user will have to correct the situation at their own expenses.
 Recommendations
For optimal accuracy and equipment preservation:
• Do not subject the weighing instrument (scale) to shocks or overloads.
• Do not stored any load on the weighing instrument; unload it as soon as the weighing is completed.
 Maintenance
The indicator must not be on power while being maintained or cleaned or if the housing is open.
Never use solvents or abrasives for cleaning.
Only components accredited by PRECIA MOLEN can be replaced to grant proper equipment function,
especially electronic cards, mains supply, mains cable, batteries.
* With battery option, the temperature range during loading is from-20°C to 40°C (4 to104°F)
** Saudi Arabia: 240V only

Equipment installation 2
 Opening and closing the i 40-SS BS housing
The wiring and installation options require opening the housing. To maintain the long-term tightness of the unit,
proceed as follows.
Open up
The housing is opened by removing the 6 screws of the device's rear half-shell.
- Depending on the indicator installation, take precautions against tearing out the cables.
- Keep the original screws for reassembly.
04-55-01-1 MI 7
Indicator i 40 BS
Closure
1. Check the joint condition. (In case of loss of elasticity or cracking, replace it.)
Check the position of the joint, including where the screws go through and at the housing corners.
Before closing, check the proper tightening of ground cable connections linking the two half-shells.
Position the cable so that it will not be pinched.
2. Gradually tighten the screws using a "star" pattern.
3. Final tightening should be moderate, and the outer contour of the seal must remain consistent.

 Cabling
The following elements can be connected to the i 40 BS indicator terminals by cables through cable glands:
• Weighing infrastructure, force load cell, scale;
• Communication links (serial, USB, Ethernet, and field bus links);
• Logical inputs-outputs, optional analogue outputs.
 Principle
 Reminder
The wiring diagram (P/N 04-55-01 DD) provides the necessary information.
Preparation
For connection to spring-loaded terminals, PRECIA MOLEN offers various stranded shielded cables (sold by
linear meter).
• Cable preparation

• Put the body of the gland (1) into position with its O-ring (2) on the wall of the casing (3) and tighten the nut
(4) inside the casing.
• Pass the cable through the cap (5), of the sealing ring (6) and the claws of the ring (7) installed in the body of
the gland, making sure that the ground braid (8) is in good contact with the claws.
• Tighten the cap (5) onto the body of the gland (1).

Terminal blocks
With the exception of the Ethernet connection, all cables are connected via spring-
loaded terminals. Connecting a conductor is performed without tool, by pressing the tip
(1) inside its casing (2). To disconnect it, press the associated pusher (3) while removing
the tip. 1
 Always use the thimble tips supplied with the unit.

(Do not insert the bare wire into the slot.)

1. Slide the end of the cable:
- presser nut,
- plug cover. 2.
2. Release the sheath 30 mm.
Roll back the shield sheath. Cut to 8 mm and surround with the tape
provided. 30 mm
3. Switch the connection thimbles by pressing on their tip. 3.
Pass the strands into the holes of these thimbles.

Press the metal plates together so that they are in contact with the
shielding.
4. Cut the strands flush at the thimble connection. 4.
5. Make the electrical contact on the strands by pressing together the

connection thimble (by means of a clamp).
Slide the cover on the plug body until full engagement. Tighten the
presser nut by hand pressure. 5.

The protocol choice is done by configuring the indicator for the selected communication port (serial, USB, etc.).
• Serial, USB and Ethernet port
The table below shows the main configuration parameters to be set for proper operation of the communication
protocol used.
(The format parameters, 1 to 5, relate only to the serial links.)
Parameter Item Modbus.

1. Transmission speed SPEED 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 115200
2. Number of Bits NB. B ITS (7 or 8 bits)
3. Parity PARITY Even, odd or none
4. Number of stop bits NB. S TOP (1 or 2 stop bits)
5. Link type(i) RS232/485 RS 232 or RS 485

• USB port - Driver Installation

This installation is required on any PC to establish a serial connection in USB mode with an i40 indicator,
regardless of the protocol used.
1. Navigate to the folder containing file precia-vcom.inf.
2. Open the context menu by right-clicking Install.
If a security warning appears, click the Install driver regardless.
3. Connect the indicator to the computer with the USB cable.
4. The device is detected, the link is being synchronized.
5. Once synchronization is complete, the following message appears:
6. The connection can be used.
• Ethernet Port - Specific Configuration
1. Specify:
-IP ADDRESS
- Subnet MASK If DHCP disabled
- GATEWAY (optional)
2. Connect on port 11001.

 RTU MODBUS
The Modbus communication protocol is normalised, the dialogue principle is assumed to be known.
In the following table, the Address column specifies the address of variables exchanged between the I40
indicator and the client's equipment, where @ is the starting value of the starting address zone defined by the
configuration of the serial port considered.
- COM x / PC / MODBUS / ADVANCED / MODBUS / ADDRESS
- USB / PROTOCOL / MODBUS / ADDRESS

 Ethernet / Modbus TCP
The Modbus TCP communication protocol is standardised; the dialogue principle is assumed to be known.
Below is the list of parameters to be configured for Modbus TCP protocol:
If YES, dynamic IP address configuration: an IP address and a subnet mask are assigned
by a DHCP server.
DHCP If NO (default value), static IP address configuration: the IP address and subnet mask are
entered in the following parameters.
If the previous parameter is no, enter the indicator's static IP address.
IP ADDRESS If the previous parameter is yes, the dynamic IP address is assigned by a DHCP server
after the indicator's restart.
If DHCP is set to YES, the value of the subnet mask is assigned by a DHCP server after
MASK restarting the indicator.
If DHCP is set to YES, the gateway's IP address is assigned by a DHCP server after
GATEWAY restarting the indicator.
