Jumpers – Surface Mount Display Although the ProScale display uses a keyboard-programming mode to enable and configure features in the unit, several selection jumpers are located on the circuit board for additional system configuration. User configurable jumpers consist of three pins and a ‘shorting block’. The center of these pins is ‘Common’. One end pin is labeled ‘A’ and the other end pin is labeled ‘B’. Surface Mount Display Circuit Board JP1 JP1 JP4 JP3 JP5 JP2 FOR FACTORY USE ONLY JP2 Absolute/Incremental Encoder Selection The General Purpose Digital Display supports both Incremental and Absolute style measuring systems (See Section 1: ProScale Terminology). To configure the display for use with absolute (ABS) type encoders (default), install the shorting jumper in position A. For incremental type encoders, install the shorting jumper in position B. (ProScale Model 150 & 250 are Absolute systems. Other Accurate Technology products such as ProCaliper, ProPanel, Measurement Kits, and ProStop are Incremental systems) NOTE: This functionality is not related to the ABS / INC measurement modes described in Section 4: Auxiliary Keypad. JP3 Programming Enable/Disable Entry to the programming mode of the ProScale display can be enabled or disabled based on this jumper setting. To enable keyboard programming (default), install the shorting jumper in position A. To disable keyboard programming, install the shorting jumper in position B. When programming mode is disabled, the user cannot access the programming functions via the Mode + 0 keys as described in the Section 4: Programming. This provides the user with a method of configuring the display with specific parameters and prevents unauthorized configuration changes. JP4 Display Power This jumper configures the Digital Display to operate on either Battery or 24VDC. This jumper will be set at the factory based on the type of display you have ordered.

The term (Momentarily) describes a key press of typically less than 1 second. Whereas (Press & Hold) is used imply a key press of typically longer than 1.5 seconds. For example: When using a PC keyboard to type a CAPITAL letter you would “press and hold” the SHIFT key and “momentarily” depress the LETTER key. In addition, a key(s) “function” is executed on the key RELEASE, not the key DEPRESS of that key(s). This is important since some keys execute different functions based on how long they are depressed. These key operations, once tried, quickly become intuitive. ProScale M150, M250 and all products with General Purpose LCD Digital Displays 39 of 39 SECTION 5 MISCELLANEOUS Frequently Asked Questions What does “no Enc” mean? If the readhead is off the scale, or the readhead cable is unplugged from the digital display, an “no Enc” will appear on the display. To clear error: 1. Be sure the readhead is on the scale. 2. Unplug the connector from the display for one second. 3. Reconnect the readhead cable to the digital display. The battery clips seem to be very loose. Is this normal? Yes. DO NOT attempt to bend these clips or wedge anything between them and the case. These clips are designed to expand when the two case halves are screwed together. Can I mount the scale/readhead without the connector link/guide clip? The connector link and guide clip serve to provide an accurate method of transferring the movement of the moving part to the readhead or scale, while also absorbing any stresses that may occur. If they are not used, the warranty could be voided. The display reads numbers but they seem to be random. Be sure the readhead is oriented correctly on the scale. One end of the scale is black. Be sure that the arrow on the readhead is pointed in the correct direction. The display does not change as the scale/readhead moves. The display is in the HOLD mode. Press & release the Hold button. Product Communication ProScale's electrical interface allows the readhead position to be read directly or through the digital display by a computer or other data acquisition device. Interface diagrams are available upon request. ProScale M150, M250 and all products with General Purpose LCD Digital Displays 40 of 40 Abbe Error Abbe error is a condition that may not be visible to the human eye, but will affect linear measurements. Be sure to take precautions when installing ProScale in order to eliminate the possibility for Abbe error. Abbe error refers to a linear error caused by the combination of an angular error and a dimensional offset between the sample and the measuring system. It is important to understand that the information the encoder is providing is only the position of the readhead on the scale. To illustrate this, see the figure, which shows a linear measuring device. (The apparent distortion in the measuring device is intentional - for this example - to show the measuring device with a curvature in its mounting.) Suppose the curvature in the figure is sufficient to produce an angle of 40 arc-seconds. If the measuring device moves 10 inches, the probe will be found to have moved 10.0039 inches, resulting in an error of +0.0039 inches. Abbe error could be lessened by moving the measuring system closer to the sample. This effectively solves one half of the Abbe error problem (offset) and leaves only the angular mounting problem to be solved. Angular error can best be countered through proper design and placement of the linear scale. Sources of angular error include: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Mounting the linear scale to an imperfectly flat surface. Mounting the linear scale to an imperfectly straight surface. Curvature of ways (or linear bearings) used to measure the sample. Contaminants between the probe and item being measured. Friction in any part(s) of the measuring device. ProScale M150, M250 and all products with General Purpose LCD Digital Displays 41 of 41
