Product Description

TI-1680 advanced weighing indicator overview

The TI-1680 is an NTEP and Canadian certified advanced industrial weighing indicator housed in a stainless steel wash-down safe enclosure. It is the most capable indicator in the Transcell TI series, designed for installers who need maximum flexibility and operators who need a clean, intuitive interface. The TI-1680 drives up to twelve 350Ω load cells, features a large 1.0" 6-digit green LED display with a tri-color LED bar graph for checkweighing, and includes a full 24-key numeric keypad for direct tare and ID entry. Two full-duplex RS-232C serial ports are standard — one configurable to USB — along with time and date, four cutoff outputs for batch weighing, one logic level input for remote control, 256 truck ID storage, and a programmable print format with 6-digit ID number. Vehicle weigh-in/weigh-out, piece counting, accumulation, peak hold, checkweighing, and batching are all supported. The TI-1680 manual and calibration guide are available in the Data Sheets tab above.

Key features

The TI-1680 is built for advanced industrial applications requiring batch control, checkweighing, vehicle weighing, and multi-cell installations in a single rugged stainless steel indicator.

1
Drives up to twelve 350Ω load cells
The TI-1680 powers up to twelve 350Ω load cells simultaneously — the highest load cell capacity in the TI series — making it suitable for very large platform scales, multi-cell tank and hopper systems, and demanding industrial weighing installations.
2
Dedicated batch and checkweigh controls
Includes dedicated keys for checkweighing and batch weighing, four cutoff outputs for batch control, and a tri-color LED bar graph for instant under/accept/over feedback. The configurable F1 key supports Peak Hold, Totalizing, Hold, and Live Weight modes.
3
24-key numeric keypad with direct ID entry
Features a full 24-key flat membrane keypad — unique in the TI series — enabling direct numeric tare and ID number entry without cycling through menus. Supports 256 truck ID storage and keyboard tare, making the TI-1680 ideal for vehicle weigh-in/weigh-out applications.
4
Dual RS-232 ports with USB configuration
Two full-duplex RS-232C serial ports are included as standard, with one port configurable to USB 2.0. This enables simultaneous connection to a printer and a computer, or any combination of peripheral devices, without additional hardware.
5
Advanced application modes
Supports Piece Counting, Remote Display, Peak Hold, Checkweighing, Batching, Accumulation, Self-diagnostics, and Vehicle Weigh-In/Weigh-Out — the broadest application coverage of any indicator in the TI series. Units supported include lb, kg, g, oz, and custom.
6
Stainless steel enclosure with internal power supply
Housed in a stainless steel wash-down safe enclosure with a heavy duty swivel bracket and internal power supply running on 100-240 VAC. Time and date are included as standard, and a programmable print format with 6-digit ID number supports full traceability.

Technical notes

Installation and connectivity

The TI-1680 uses a Quick Disconnect cable connection and operates on 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz via its internal power supply, or optionally on 12 VDC. It connects to any standard mV/V load cell or junction box and supports up to twelve 350Ω load cells. Two RS-232 ports and one USB port are standard, with RS-485, Bluetooth, WLAN, analog output, Ethernet, and USB available as add-ons. Four cutoff outputs and one logic level input are also built in for batch and remote control applications.

Available add-on options
Analog output: 16-bit, 0-5 VDC (active) / 4-20 mA (passive)
Bluetooth wireless communication
RS-485 for multi-drop network installations
WLAN / Wi-Fi connectivity
Ethernet connectivity
Additional RS-232 port
USB connectivity
