OPERATION

SETTING UP AND TURN ON THE SCALE

Follow this set up when using the scale for first time:

  1. Place the platform in the locating holes on the top cover. Level the scale by adjusting the four feet. Ensure the bubble in the spirit level is in the centre of the level and the scale is supported by all four feet.
  2. Attach the power cable to the connector located on the base to the left of the scale.
  3. Plug the power cable into the mains.
  4. Press the power button located on scale keypad.
  5. The scale will then display the software revision and run a self-test.
  6. Once the self-test has been completed and a stable condition achieved, the scale will display zero weight alongside stable and zero symbol indicators.
    Operation
ZEROING THE DISPLAY

You can press the [Zero] / 0 Esc key at any time to set the zero point. When the zero point is obtained, the display will show the indicator for zero.

Zeroing The Display 

The scale has a re-zeroing function to account for minor drifting or accumulation of material on the platform. Press [Zero]/ **0 Esc** to re- zero the scale if small amounts of weight are still shown when the platform is empty.

TARING

Taring

Manual tare

Steps:

  1. Zero the scale by pressing the [Zero]/ **0 Esc** key.
  2. Place a container on the platform, a value for its weight will be displayed.
  3. Press the [Tare] key when reading is stable. The weight displayed is then stored as the tare value.
  4. The stable and “NET” indicator will show on the display.
  5. Now when adding additional products, only the weight of the current product will be shown. The scale can be tared a second time.

Removing an object

Removing a container/ object will cause a negative value to show on the display. The zero indicator will also appear, as the weighing platform has returned back to the same condition as it was when the [Zero]/ 0 Esc key was pressed last.

The display will automatically reset to zero if removing the object causes a negative value. If not, press [Tare] or [Zero]/ 0 Esc to remove the tare value and display zero. The Net indicator will disappear.

WEIGHING

To determine the weight of a sample:

  1. Zero the scale by pressing the [Zero]/ 0 Esc key
  2. Place the sample onto the weighing pan. If using a container, ensure that you tare the container before adding the sample.
  3. The display will show the weight and the unit of weight currently in use.
  4. To change the weighing unit press the [Units] key. The weighing units displayed are enabled by the user in the parameters section.
PARTS COUNTING

Parts Counting

The scale can be used to count parts based on the average weight of a previously weighed sample by following these steps:

  1. Zero the scale and tare the weighing container.

  2. Press the [Func] key

  3. The digits [1] and [6] can be used to scroll through the different weighing applications, press until ‘count’ appears on the display.

  4. Press the [Tare] ↵ key to activate

  5. Once activated, the ‘PCS’ label will appear on the top righthand side of the display.

  6. Load the parts sample to be counted by pressing the [SMPL] key, and by pressing the desired number on the keypad e.g. 20.

  7. Press [Tare] ↵ to confirm the number of parts.

  8. The total number of parts will appear on the display, adding or removing parts will adjust the parts count on the display accordingly by applying the average piece weight to the weight of the parts to be counted.

  9. During parts counting the display can be changed to show the net weight, unit weight and number of parts by each time pressing the [UNIT] key.

  10. To return to weighing, press [Func] and ‘count’ will be shown on the display.

NOTE: If the parts are too light to measure accurately, the count may become faulty. To ensure accurate counting the unit weight of the item should normally be at least equal to the resolution of the scale.

CHECK WEIGHING

Check-weighing is a procedure to display an indicator or sound an alarm when the weight on the platform meets or exceeds the values stored in the memory. The memory holds values for a high limit and a low limit. Either or both the limits can be set by the user.

Check Weighing

Check weighing Display

The LCD display will indicate whenever the weight is within or exceeds the limits by showing “OK” (mass is between the limits), “HI” (mass is above the high limit) or “LO”( mass is below the low limit).

Steps:

  1. In normal weighing, Press the [Low Limit] key. It will show the current low limit. The “LO” symbol will appear on the display.
  2. Press the [CE] key to clear the old value and then enter the new low limit using the numeric keys. Then press [Tare] ↵ to accept the value. If you want to reset the value to zero, press [CE] to clear the value. The limits are displayed in the weighing unit in use. If the weighing unit is pounds: ounces, the limits are entered in pounds and decimal parts of pounds. i.e. 60.125 lb.
  3. To set the high limit press [High Limit], the “HI” symbol will be on. Set the high limit in the same way the low limit was set. Pressing the [Tare] key to enter the value will return the scale to weighing, with the Check-weighing function enabled.
  4. To disable the check weighing function, enter zero into both the limits as described above. When the current limits are shown, press [CE] to clear the settings, then press [Tare] ↵ to store the zero values.

NOTE: The weight must be greater than 20 scale divisions for the check- weighing to operate.

Limits storing and recalling

The indicator can store up to 10 sets of high and low limits in memory along with the weighing units in use (including pcs and %) as well as settings for the beeper. Limits can be stored previously stored units can be recalled.

If you are already in the check weighing mode the display will ask if you wish to store the current limits by showing “StorE” or recall another set of limits by showing “Recall”.
The [Lim] key can be used to toggle “StorE” and “rECALL” view using digits 1 or 6.

Store

If you want to store the limits, when “StOrE” is displayed press the [Tare] ↵ key. The display shows the current function “Pos”. Enter a number corresponding to the desired memory location (0 to 9) and press [Tare] ↵ to accept. Once you have entered the desired “PoS” number, you can then store new Low and high limits manually using the numeric keypad and pressing [Tare] to enter.

Recall

If you wish to recall any of the pre-stored limits, press [Tare] ↵ when “rECALL” is displayed. The display shows “Pos”. Enter the number corresponding to the desired memory location (0 to 9) to be recalled then press [Tare] ↵ to accept.

NOTE: If the recalled limit is for parts counting or percent weighing, the display will show the last sample value used, ready for a new sample to be counted. If the memory location was empty the scale will return to weighing.

PERCENT WEIGHING

The scale will use a mass on the platform as the 100% reference weight or input a reference weight using the keypad:

  1. Zero the scale and tare the container on the weighing pan once a stable weight is displayed. If wanting to set weight manually, ensure there is nothing on top of the weighing pan at this stage.
  2. Press the [Func] key and scroll using digits [1] or [6] until ‘percent’ appears on the display. Press the [Tare] ↵ key
  3. Press the [SMPL] key. The display will now show the given weight as 100%. If no items have been placed on the scale, pressing the [SMPL] key will change from percentage to the pre-selected weight unit. Use the digits on the keypad to enter the desired weight value and press the [Tare] ↵ key.
  4. Removing or adding to the weighing pan will adjust the weight according to the original weight value.
  5. Press the [Func] key and scroll using digits [1] or [6] to select a different mode. Press [Tare] ↵ to confirm.

NOTE:

  1. The weight entered must be greater than 50 scale divisions.
  2. The display may jump by large numbers unexpectedly if small weights are used to set as 100% reference. For example, if only 23.5g is placed on a scale with 0.5g increments and is set to 100%, the display will show 100.00%. However a small change of weight will cause the display to jump to 102.13% as an increase of one scale division (0.5g) to 24.0g will be equivalent to an increase of 2.13%.
ACCUMULATED TOTALS

The scale can be set to accumulate when a weight is added to the platform automatically or manually by pressing [MR]. See menu structure section. The accumulation function is available only during weighing. If at any time the weighing units are changed, the accumulated data will be lost.

Manual Accumulation
When the scale is set to manual accumulation, the weight displayed will be stored in the memory when the [Print] key is pressed and the weight is stable.

Accumulation display:

Accumulation display

  • Press [MR] to open the accumulation display
  • Press [Print M+] to print
  • Press [CE] to clear the accumulation.
  • Press [Zero]/ 0 Esc to exit.

Steps:

Add the weight and press [Print M+] when the display is at zero.

The display will show “ACC 1” and then the weight in memory for 2 seconds before returning to normal. The weight can be output to a printer or PC using the RS-232 interface.

When the scale is at zero, place a second weight. When stable, press [Print M+] to accumulate the weight. The display will show “ACC 2” for 2 seconds and then show the new total.

Display Function Icons

Continue until all weights have been added. This can continue for up to 99 entries until the capacity of display is exceeded.

To view the total in memory, press the [MR] key when the scale is at zero. The display will show the total number of accumulation “ACC xx” and the total weight.

To print the total, press [MR] to recall and then immediately press [Print M+] to print the results. To erase the memory, press [MR] to view the total and then immediately press [CE] to clear the memory.

Press [Zero]/ 0 Esc to return to weighing.

Automatic Accumulation
When the scale has been set to Automatic Accumulation the value will be stored in memory automatically.

Steps:

Place a weight on the platform. The beeper will sound when the display is stable indicating the value is accepted. Remove the weight. The display will show “ACC 1” and then the total in the memory before it returns to zero. Adding a 2nd weight will repeat the process.

While the weight is on the platform, press the [MR] key to view the values- first the accumulation number “ACC x” and then the total will be shown.

NOTE: The scale must return to zero or a negative number, before another sample can be added to the memory.

RS-232 INTERFACE

The CKT and CKT-M Series of scales include a bi-directional RS-232 interface. The scale when connected to a printer or computer through the RS-232 interface, outputs the weight with the selected weighing unit.
