2.0 INTRODUCTION
This Service Manual will guide you through the normal service and calibration procedures
necessary to maintain the indicator. Please read this Manual thoroughly before performing
any service. This manual should be used in conjunction with the User operation manual.
3.0 SAFETY
HIGH VOLTAGE
The indicator has high voltage inside. This high voltage can be lethal.
When using the indicator, indicator power plug must connect to a reliable earthed external
power.
When service the indicator, power must be disconnected, it is essential to separate display
plug from external power.

4.0 PANEL INTERFACES
The indicator has connectors for the power, data interface, load cell and Relay (option).
4.1 POWER
Make certain your indicator is compatible with the mains power supply in your area. If the
voltage is not the same the indicator can be damaged.
4.2 DATA INTERFACES
The indicator has data interfaces for a variety of applications.
The RS232 interface is a general purpose serial interface for communications with the
indicator, using a connector.
See the User manual section 9.0 for more details.
4.3 LOAD CELL INTERFACES
The indicator has load cell interfaces option, so user can connect it to a weighing platform
for using.
Due to approval or special requirement for application, some indicator models need the
user to connect load cell wire to the PCB board.
See section 11 for more installation details.
4.4 RELAY INTERFACES
The indicator has relay interfaces option. If you need this option, please contact Adam
Equipment or your dealer.
See the User manual section 10.0 for more details.
