This
manual
describes
how
this
scale
works
and
how
to
get
the
most
out
of
it
in
terms
of
performance.
FG series platform scales have the following features:
П
The
FG
series
has
three
kinds
of
weight
display
resolution,
1/3,000,
1/6,000
(1/7,500)
and
1/12,000
(1/15,000).
О
There
are
2
sizes
of
weighing
pan.
The
FG-KAL
has
a
larger
pan and
the
FG-
KAM/KBM
has
a
smaller
pan.
The
FG-KAL/KAM
has
a
display
column
and
the
FG-
KBM
is
a
without
column
model.
You
can
select
a
model
that
suits
your
own
application.
|
О
As
power
source,
you
can use
ап
AC
adapter
or
C
size
dry
batteries.
П
The
counting
function
easily
counts
the
number
of
articles
of
the
same
weight.
П
The
comparator
function
compares
the
display
value
with
upper
limit
and
lower
limit.
The
display
shows
the
result
and
the
optional
FG-24
can
output
it
as
a
relay
signal.
О
The
optional
FG-23
and
FG-24
has
an
RS-232C
interface
and
can
output
the
weighing
data
to
connect
with
a
printer,
computer
and
so
on.
2. UNPACKING
When
unpacking,
check
whether
all
of
the
following

are
included:

Cautions for installing the scale
Consider
the
following
conditions
to
get
the
most
out
of
your
scale.
LJ
Install
the
scale
where
the
temperature
and
relative
humidity
is
stable.

4-3. Power source
For
the
power
source,
the
AC
adapter
or
C

6. Remove the object from the weighing pan.
П The switch -will zero the scale if the weight is within +2% of the
weighing capacity (kg) around the power-on zero point. The ZERO indicator ? turns
on. When the weight exceeds +2% of the weighing capacity (kg), it will be
subtracted to zero as a tare weight. In this case the ZERO and NET indicators turn
on.
О The switch will zero the scale if the weight is within +2% of the weighing
». capacity (kg) around the power-on zero point. The ZERO indicator ? turns on.
When the weight exceeds +2% of the weighing capacity (kg), the switch does not
work.
Ц The | TARE | switch will subtract the weight to zero as а tare weight when the
weight is a plus value. |
Precautions during operation |
Q Make sure that the STABLE indicator is on whenever reading or storing a
value.
О Do not press switches with a sharp implement such ғ as a pencil.
О Do not apply a shock load to the scale.
О Do not place a load onto the pan that exceeds the capacity.
Q Keep the scale free from foreign objects such as dust or liquid.
(1 Calibrate the scale periodically to keep weighing accuracy.
(See "8. CALIBRATION".)
5-4. Weight display resolution
The FG series has three kinds of weight display resolution, NORMAL, HIGH and
HIGHER. The following is about "kg" and "Ib" display for reference. see the “12.
SPECIFICATIONS?” in detail.
NORMAL: 1/3,000
HIGH: 1/6,000 ~ 1/7,500 (depending on capacity)
HIGHER: 1/12,000 ~ 1/15,000 (depending on capacity)
The factory setting is the HIGH resolution, but it is possible to change by Function
settings "F2". Set this function according to the application.
О м some countries, the resolution will be limited NORMAL only, and the setting F2 is
not available.
О In the COUNTING mode, the scale works as in the HIGHER resolution regardless
_ of weight display resolution.
