TI-500E Digital Weight Indicators are basically the industry standard when it comes to simple and easy to use weight readouts that can be connected to scales or load cells. The TI500E weight indicator comes complete with an AC adapter, 15 foot home run cable, and instruction manual.
The Transcell TI-500E is a basic style digital indicator enclosed in a standard ABS enclosure. It comes with a (0.6") LED digit screen for easy readout of up to 50,000 display divisions, and supplies enough current for up to four 350-ohm load cells. All setup parameters may be entered via the front panel keys.
The TI500E Digital Weight Indicator uses full duplex RS-232 serial format for communication with many types of attached support equipment. The unit can transmit data on demand, or continuously in a popular data protocol to match a wide variety of printers, remote displays, or personal computers.

This is not exactly a plug and play solution! You will need to do several things in order to make this work with your existing scale!
Please read the scale manual. When you receive this unit, you will need to connect the cable to your existing summing board. Then, you will need to setup the indicator using the settings in the instrument (primarily F1, F9, & F10). Then, you will need to do a zero cal (F16) and a span cal (F17). For the span cal, you will need to use a known weight that is ideally over 10% of the capacity. You can read more in depth instructions on the calibration by looking at page 10 of the manual.
If you will follow the instructions in the TI 500E manual carefully, this indicator is one of the easiest weight indicators to setup & calibrate.
We have gotten a few requests from customers to tell them what the settings should be in certain situations, so here goes: For a standard 5000 x 1 lb setup, the defaulted selections that you see in bold in the manual should be right in the manual. For something like a 10,000 x 2 lb setup, the choices would be: F1= 5000, F9= 2, & F10= 0.
One thing that trips some folks up is the F1 setting. This setting is referring to the divisions or graduations (not the capacity). In most cases, F1 is going to be either 5000 or 10,000 because once again we're talking about the graduations. Most industrial scales are going to be setup to display 5000 divisions, such as 5000 x 1 lb or 10,000 x 2 lb. So, 5000/1 = 5000, 10,000/2= 5000, 500/0.1= 5000, 250/0.05 = 5000, etc.... Then, the F9 and F10 choices are where you determine your increment number and your decimal point.
