1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the CAS CI-6000A weighing indicator.
We have designed this equipment with many advanced features, high quality construction, and user-
friendly menu driven programming.
CAS indicator is shaped firmly and delicately designed to coincide with the special requirements of
several industrial fields and includes many functions and various external interfaces. Also, it contains
help display functions to be used easily.
Before using CI-6000A, It is recommended to read this manual carefully and to apply
the function application fully.
Precautions
Observe the following safety precautions :
Warning
When any damage or defect
occurs, contact your CAS
authorized dealer immediately
for proper repair.
Insert plug firmly to wall outlet to
prevent electric shock.
Scale must be grounded to
minimize electricity static. This
will minimize defect or electric
shock.
Do not pull the plug by its cord
when unplugging. Damaged
cord could cause electric shock
or fire.
To prevent from fire occurring,
Do not place or use the scale
near flammable or corrosive
gas.
To reduce electric shock or
incorrect reading, Do not spill
water on the scale or place it in
humid condition.

5
Avoid placing the scale near
heather or in direct sunlight.
Attention
For consistent and accurate
reading, maintain periodical
check by your CAS authorized
dealer.
Avoid sudden shock to the scale.
Internal mechanism could by
damaged.
Attach the rubber pad to the
bottom of the indicator.
Elimination is possible.
Place the scale on firm and
temperature consistent
environment.
Keep the scale away from the electromagnetic generation devices.
This may interfere with accurate reading.

4) Error Message (In CAL Mode)
Error 20
▣Reason
The resolution exceeds 1/10,000
Solution☞
Lower the resolution.
The resolution = allowed weight/one division.
Modify the allowed weight in CAL1 or modify the division in CAL2 so that
the resolution is below 1/10,000
Error 22
▣Reason
The weight for span calibration is lower than 10% of the maximum
capacity of the indicator
Solution☞
Set the weight for span calibration in CAL 3 to be greater than 10% of the
maximum capacity
Error 23
▣Reason
The weight for span calibration exceeds 100% of the maximum capacity
of the indicator
Solution☞
Set the weight for span calibration to be within the maximum capacity of
the indicator in CAL 1
Error 24
▣Reason
Span value is too low
Solution☞
Load cell is damaged or setting of current resolution is not possible.
Calibrate with less resolution
