Cautions
The instrument is not an explosion proof device.
The instrument is not a water proof device.
Do not open the instrument, no user serviceable parts inside. Always contact your dealer for service.
Do not place this instrument in where shock, excessive vibration or extremes of temperature (before or
after installation) exist.
1. Reminders
1.1 Metrological Legislation
Because of metrological legislation, some metrological parameter settings are limited to be done by authorized
personnel only. Do not attempt to change any parameters under internal function number F60 ~ F99. Contact
your dealer for installation and technical assistance.
1.2 Seal & Serial Number
This instrument is legal for trade only when it is sealed (and/or stamped) and bearing a serial number. Do not
attempt to break the seal (or stamp) or serial number affixed to this instrument. No warranty service will be
provided if the seal (or stamp) or data plate affixed to this instrument is damaged or removed. Always contact
your dealer for after sales service.
1.3 Warm Up Time
a. Allow warm up period of not less than 60 seconds before calibration and usage. The higher the setup
resolution of the scale, the longer the warm up period is required. In most cases, 120 seconds is a
safe warm up period for all applications. This warm up period is needed to energy all components to
reach a stable status.
b. The internal count value is deemed stable when the internal AD count varies less than 3 counts within
2 seconds.
c. To read the internal AD count value, enter internal function F1. The internal AD count value of a not
yet fully energized PCB will go up continuously.
1.4 Placing the Instrument
In order to obtain an accurate weighing result, this instrument must be placed on a strong and level surface.
Avoid using this instrument in any environment where excessive wind flow, vibration and extreme temperature
change exist.
