5.1 HOW TO WEIGHT A PRODUCT
At the end of this countdown sequence, zeroes will appear in the view finder, indicating that the scale
is ready to use.
If not, see reference to zero section. Then place the product to be weighed on the plate and you will
see the weight in the corresponding indicator.

SC100 SERIES

5.2 HOW TO ENTER PRICES
The products price per kilogram are entered pressing the numbers of the keyboard to indicate the
desired value. This value will appear in the "PRICE" indicator and the total amount to pay will be
calculated automatically being shown in the "TOTAL" indicator. For example, if the product price per
kilogram in the previous examples is $8.20, just press 820and the following display will appear:
5.3 TO CLEAR WRONG PRICES
When a mistaken price is entered, you can clear it in two ways:
a) Manually: Simply press the clear key and enter the correct price.
b) Automatically: The price is automatically cleared removing the product from the plate, except if it's
not enabled the fixed price function.
5.4 FIXED PRICE FUNCTION
When it is necessary to constantly be weighing the same kind of product, which don´t change its price,
you can use the "FIXED PRICE" function. It is used to keep the price "FIXED" in the "PRICE" indicator
avoiding it to be automatically cleared when the weight is removed from the scale.
To fix a price, follow these steps:
1.- Place the product on the plate.
2.- Enter the product price per kilogram.
3.- Press .
After these steps, a small arrow will light up in the upper right corner of the "TOTAL" indicator, pointing
to the label "PPACK" (fixed price). As an example, suppose that the product is ham, the weight is 4
kilograms, and the price is $2.70 per kilogram after entering the fixed price, the view finder will look
like this:
To clear the fixed price function, just press the key.
5.5 USE OF THE "TARE"
When you wish to weight a product in a container but you do not want to consider the containers
weight during the
operation, you can use the TARE function. To use this function follow these steps:
Suppose you are going to weight 15 kilograms of sugar in a plastic container that weights 3.5
kilograms and that the price per kg is $1.80
1.- Place the empty container on the scale.

SC100 SERIES

2.- Press the key. After some seconds the view finder will display:
3.- Remove the container and put the sugar inside it. When you remove the container, a negative
number (weight of the container) appears in the UPPER-LEFT indicator.
4.- Place the container on the scale and put sugar in the container until you have 15 kg. Then enter
the price per kilogram press 180.
To clear this function, just press the key again. It is important to mention that this function is
substractive from the scale maximum capacity. For example if you have a container that weights 7 kg,
The scale only will be able to weight up to 33 kg of product to complete the maximum capacity.
5.6 HOW TO USE THE REFERENCE TO ZERO
This function has two uses:
a) Permanent tare: when you wish to weigh some products over a same container several times, you
should use this function , and to eliminate it, just remove the container from the plate and press
key again. As in the tare function this function is also substractive from the scale capacity, for
example: if you reference to 10 kg, the scale only will be able to weight up to 30 kg.
b) Due to voltage variance or some other factor, it is posibble that without having any weight over the
plate, the view finder shows some weight, or the zero flag is not on, then press the key and the
scale will be referenced to zero, turning the zero flag on.
5.7 HOW TO SAVE MEMORIES
Your scale has 100 memories to store the prices of 100 products that are sold more frequently. The
memories are numbered from 00 to 99.
To save a price in a memory location:
1) Type the price you wish to save.
2) Press key.
3)Type the memory address (00-99) in wich you wish to save the price, or you also can press any of
the direct access keys , ..., .
NOTE: We suggest to use an adhesive label to mark the direct access keys.

SC100 SERIES

5.8 HOW TO LOAD A MEMORY:
1) Press the key and then the memory address (00-99) you wish to load or just press any of the
direct access keys , ..., .
Example:
If you wish to save $26.60 in the memory address 6, follow these steps:
1) Type .
2) Press .
3) Type or just press the direct access key .
With this sequence the price is saved in the memory address 06. If you wish to load the memory of
this example just type or just , and in the "PRICE" indicator will be displayed the price
stored in memory, in this case will be $26.60.
To change the price stored in a memory just type the new price and store it in the memory address
you want to change according the procedure described above. These keys are very useful to avoid the
same price constantly typing. To use of these memories we suggest to have at hand the list product
that are saved in each memory address.
To delete all the memories that are stored, turn the scale on and during the countdown type P
I and all the memories will be deleted to zero.
5.9 POWER OFF TIMER FUNCTION
This function is permanently enabled when the scale is on, and only when you do not have the AC/DC
power supply connected to the scale. When the scale is not use for a period of time greater then 15
minutes, it will be automatically turn off and therefore all the information of the transaction you were
doing will be lost. To turn on the scale again, just press the key, and repeat your customers
operations. The power off timer function permit you to save electricity and avoids constant battery
recharges.
5.10 USE OF THE BATTERY
As mentioned before, the scale can operate with a 6 volt built in battery or with an AC/DC power
supply. The battery is rechargeable using the AC/DC power supply.
5.11 BATTERY RECHARGE
To make this operation, just connect the AC/DC power supply to the scale for 10 HOURS making sure
that the scale was turned off. When you recharge the battery for some hours, but the battery can not
get enough charge to turn on the scale, then you must have to charge the battery, in this case contact
to your authorized distributor.
LIFE TIME OF THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
The charging capacity of the rechargeable battery in this scale decreases according to the number of
charge/discharge cycles, this causes the service life is reduced to 1000 cycles. For this reason the
warranty period of the battery is limited to six months after the purchase date of the scale.

SC100 SERIES

5.12 LOW BATTERY INDICATOR
If the battery does not have enough energy to keep the scale operating a long time, a blinking
message appears in the display “LO Bat”. This is the first warning signal indicating that it is necessary
to recharge the battery. Even with this signal, it is possible for the scale to keep on operating for a
short period of time (30 minutes), but after a second warning the message "LO BAt" appears fixed in
the display, the scale stops and turn itself off.
5.13 HOW TO TURN ON THE BACKLIGHT

on in two ways:
1) Automatically: when an AC adaptor is connected to the scale.
2) Manually: It can be performed by pressing the key.
And can be turned off in two ways:
1) Automatically: when the scale is powered only by battery and the battery is low the backlight is
turned off.
2) Manually: It can be performed by pressing the key.
NOTE: Using the backlight and only powering the scale with the battery, the charge of the
battery will last less hours
6 OTHER IMPORTANT MESSAGES THAT APPEAR ON THE SCALE
This message indicates that a weight that exceeds the maximum capacity has been placed on the
scale. To correct it simply, remove the over weight.
This message appears in two different situations:
a) When the scale is turned on with an excessive weight on the plate (near to the half capacity of the
scale). To correct this situation remove the weight that is on the scale, turn off the scale, and then turn
it on again.
b) When the scale was handled roughly and/or got hitted during the shipment, wich caused
irreversible damages in its operation. In this case call your authorized distributor.

This message indicates that the total was exceeded when the multiplication price per weight exceed
999999 then appear lines in the "TOTAL" indicator.
When this message blinks in the display, indicates that the scale needs to be recharged. Even with
this advise the scale can continue working during a time of 30 min. If this appears and after some
seconds the scale turns off , this indicates that the scale is completely discharged. In this point the
scale doesn't work and all of the operations performed at that time will be lost. To correct this problem
connect the AC/DC adaptor for a period of time of 10 hrs. and keeping the scale off. In case of using
the scale during this period, there's no problem to use it, only the recharge time will be higher.
