The LossInWeightScaleDeviceType defines the structure of an Object of the LossInWeightScaleDeviceType. Figure 37 shows the hierarchical structure and details of the composition. It is formally defined in Table 65.

An Object of the LossInWeightScaleDeviceType represents a loss in weight scale. It defines additional methods and properties required for managing the loss in weight scale.

Scales Loss In Weight Scale

Discharging indicates that hopper discharge operation is in progress.

BinWeight defines the weight of the filled material in an additional bin.

HopperFillLevel defines the fill weight relative to the maximal fill weight of the hopper (Unit: percentage).

HopperWeight defines the weight of the material within the feed hopper. This excludes the weight of the hopper itself.

Refilling indicates that a refill process into the hopper is taking place.

Command to completely discharge the hopper.

Signature

DischargeStart(

);

Command to terminate the complete hopper discharge procedure.

Signature

DischargeStop(

);

Manually starts a refill process.

Signature

RefillStart(

);

Manually stops a running refill process.

Signature

RefillStop(

);
