Vox-2 Talking Scale

Thank you for purchasing the My Weigh® Vox-2® digital scale. Please read all operating instructions carefully before use. This electronic scale is a precision instrument. With normal care and proper treatment, it will provide years of reliable service. For more information please visit www.myweigh.com
Never load the scale with more than the maximum capacity. Although the Vox-2® is designed to be extremely durable with extra overload protection built into the case, overloading will permanently damage it! Avoid any exposure to extreme heat or cold, your scale works better when operated at normal room temperature. Keep your scale in a clean environment. Dust, dirt, moisture, vibration, air currents and/or a close proximity to other electronic equipment can all cause an adverse effect on the reliability and accuracy of your scale. Handle with care. Gently apply all items to be weighed onto tray top. Avoid shaking, dropping or otherwise shocking the scale. Scales are delicate instruments and unlike cellular phones, scales have delicate sensors that determine how much an item weighs. If you drop or shock your scale, these sensors”feerthe shock and are sometimes destroyed. This happens with all digital scales. We design our scales to be as resistant to shock or drops as possible, however there is no way for us to protect 100% against load cell or sensor damage. Failure to follow these instructions will void your warranty.
Always allow the scale to acclimate to normal room temperature for at least one hour before use. Give your scale sufficient warm up time. Usually 30-60 seconds before calibration to give the internal components a chance to stabilize.

BATTERIES

Low Batteries & bad battery connections are the #1 cause of scale malfunction and inaccuracy! We test all of our scale returns from consumers and 60% of them are battery related problems. This sounds silly but it’s true! A scale will perform poorly when it has low batteries. Use good quality batteries & replace them often ( Remove the batteries if you plan to store the scale for longer then 14 days). We include good quality batteries with all of our scales but they can run low in storage. If your scale simply won’t turn on while on battery power, it is often caused by loose battery connections. Battery prongs (terminals) are made of metal and they have to be in contact with the batteries. You can use a paperclip to slightly bend the battery prongs to have a better connection. Some  poorly designed batteries have recessed or partially obstructed battery terminals. This may cause your prongs to be touching the plastic housing of the battery instead of the metal of the battery terminal.

Battery installation

a) Press and lift open the battery cover located at the bottom of the unit.
b) Insert 4x AA batteries and make sure the polarity is correct (+) and (-).
c) Close the battery cover until it clicks shut.
Note: If the battery symbol appears in the display, it means low battery power. It is time to replace the battery. If the power is too low, it will show “Lo” when powered on and then it will turn off automatically.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Weighing Procedures

1. Place the scale on a flat hard surface.
2. Press and release the [ON] key and it will say “Hello!”
3. Once the platform is stable you will hear “It’s Ready!” and the displays shows “0”.
4. The weight will be displayed on the LCD and spoken when the reading is steady.
5. Gently place the items to be weighed on the scale platform.
6. Press [TARE] to deduct the weight of an item or container that is on the scale. The reading is now “0”.
7. The stability indicator “H” in the top left corner will display when the weight is stable
8. Press [MODE] to select the desired weighing mode (g or 02).
9. Turn the scale off by pressing the [OFF] key and it will say “Goodbye”.

TARE
Tare can be used for eliminating the weight value of an empty container. Place an empty container on the scale and press TARE. Then place the items to be weighed in the container.
NOTE: When all weight is removed from the weighing tray, the tared value of a container will be displayed as a negative number. Press tare again to return the scale to zero.

CALIBRATION

Calibration may be required when the scale is first set up for use, or if the scale is moved to a different altitude or new location. This is necessary because the weight of a mass in one location is not necessarily the same in another location. Also, with time and use, mechanical deviations can occur.

1. Place the scale on a flat hard surface.
2. Press the [ON] key and it will say ‘Hello!”.
3. Once the platform is stable you will hear “It’s ready!” and the displays shows “0”.
4. Put 5kg standard weight on the platform. Make sure the reading is steady.
5. Press and hold the [TARE] key for 5 seconds, the display will show “5000” and flash twice. Do not release the key until it shuts down automatically. The calibration is complete

FEATURES

Overload indicator
When the display shows “Err’, this indicates an overload. Remove excessive load immediately.
Remember: you can permanently damage the scale and void your warranty by overloading it!
Negative Value
Any tared value will be displayed as a negative number once all weight is removed, press [TARE] to re-zero the scale.
Auto off
An auto shut off feature is provided to conserve battery power. The unit will automatically turn off after 90 seconds of inactivity.
To add the weight feature
Press [TARE] to zero the value of the last weighing item before adding the next item being weighed. You can repeat this procedure as many times as long the combined weights are less than capacity.
Note: The scale will give an audio signal to represent negative (-ve) readings when using TARE function.

AUDIO
