Setting

 Setting Entry
Normally press 〖CAL〗 until shows. Press〖ON/OFF〗 to enter into the menu setting interface to set parameters from F1~F5. Normally, press 〖GROSS〗 until shows. Press 〖ON/OFF〗 to enter into the menu setting interface to set parameters from F2~F5. Below shows where the 〖CAL〗 button is.

 Detailed Parameter Setting
F1 Scale Parameter Setting

F1.1 Capacity
Selectable parameters：3~200000（default: 6） F1.2 Decimal

F1.3 Division
Selectable parameters: 1 (default), 2, 5, 10, 20, 50

Note: when F1.2, F1.3 or F1.4 is being set, division value should not be beyond 10000.

F1.4 Zero Calibration

• remove weights off scale and press 『ON/OFF』. The indicator shows and it decreases to . Finally, appears for one second and zero calibration ends.
• F1.5 Load Calibrationadd weights Add weights to scale and make sure: full capacity *50% ≤ weights ≤ full capacity. Press『ON/OFF』. Enter the same value as the weights. Wait until the scale is stable and press  『ON/OFF』. The indicator shows and it decreases to Finally, appears for one second and load calibration ends.

F 5 Maintenance and Service

F 5.1 Button test

• When the indicator displays , press〖ON/OFF〗〖ZERO〗〖TARE〗〖GROSS〗 〖PRINT〗and〖COUNT〗in order and the indicator displays “on.off” “Zero” “Tare” “Gross” “Print” and “Count”. Press 〖TOTAL〗to exit.

F 5.3 Inner code
The indicator shows the after-filtering inner code. Press 〖COUNT〗or〖ON/OFF〗to exit.

 Functions

Totalization
F 1.10=0
Operation: Normally add weights to scale and press 〖TOTAL〗. The screen shows “Add-” and returns to the main weighing interface. Remember to zero the scale before putting things on scale every time; otherwise, there is no totalization.
Check and clear: Normally long press 〖TOTAL〗and “TOTAL ” shows for one second. Then the total quantity interface “Cn xxx” and the total weight interface “t xx.xx” show. Press〖Print〗or 〖GROSS〗 to switch between the above two interfaces. Press 〖ZERO〗 to clear the total quantity or the total weight value. Press 〖ON/OFF〗 to confirm and press 〖COUNT〗to exit.

Counting
F 1.10=1
Operation: Normally press 〖COUNT〗to switch between the weight and quantity display. Sampling: Long press 〖COUNT〗 until “SAMPLE” shows. Press 〖ON/OFF〗 and as “Sn XXX” shows, put in the correct quantity. If F 2.4=0, put the corresponding quantity on scale and press 〖ON/OFF〗to confirm the sample quantity and weight; if F 2.4=1, press 〖ON/OFF〗 and as “XXXXXX” shows, put in the corresponding weight and press 〖ON/OFF〗 to confirm the sample quantity and weight.

Appendix Ⅰ Indicator Prompt Message
Normally the indicator is stable and reliable. If the indicator fails, restart it first. Find out what the error is before repairing it. Repair the indicator according to the error codes.

Appendix Ⅱ Serial output format
Serial output format HEAD1：OL overload, underload or no zeroing at start-up

• ST the scale is stable
• US the scale is unstable
• HEAD2：GS gross weight
• NT net weight
• DATA： data display
• UNIT： kg/lb
• CR/LF： New line

Example 1: stable, gross weight: 18.000kg, sp = space.

Example 2: unstable, net weight: -0.200kg, sp = space.
