SAFETY WARNING
• Disconnect from supply before installation or disassembly.
• Before start using it, check if the voltage in the characteristics label
corresponds with the network you are going to connect it with. If not, do
not connect the scale in the network.
• Do not rest the scale over its plate or underplate because it can damage
the load cell. To manipulate the low part (external platform connection,
charger or to change battery) the scale should rest over its sides, but
never over its plate.
• Do not hit the plate or underplate neither frontal nor on its sides,
because the load cell could get damaged. It is a precision instrument,
and it should be treaten carefully.
• Before start using it, check the charger cable is not stucked or under
pressure. It should be out from any pressure.
• The scale should only be used under proper environmental conditions
indicated in this operation manual.
• Do not use this scale in places where there are unstable conditions or
explosive danger.
• Do not place the scale near heat sources or under direct solar radiation
influence.
• Keep the scale far away from other electromagnetic radiation sources.
Its influence could affect the weighting precision.
• When low-battery advertisement appears, the battery should be charged.

9
If the battery remains discharged for a long time, it deteriorates and
could stop working.
• When changing battery, check if (+) and (-) terminals do connect to its
corresponding terminals.
IMPORTANT! In case of breakdown or inappropriate operation working due
to an inadequate following of the instructions given before, the guarantee
right will be lost.

BASIC FUNCTION OPERATION
Zero adjust
When scale plate is empty and it does not show zero value, press key to
correct it.
Tare function
Place a container over the plate. Display will show tare value. Press
and it will show “0” value, deducting object weight. Now you can place other
objects on the container, and display will show its net weight.

13
You can see the total value (gross weight) pressing key. Press it again to
return to net weight.
To cancel tare, remove all objects from the plate, and press , the display
will show zero value.
Advice: If there is instability or temperature differences, display may not
show “0” value. In this case, press key to correct it.
Max tare range: Tare value cannot exceed the maximum scale capacity. The
real scale capacity is the sum of maximum capacity minus the tare done.
Real cap. = max cap. – tare.
TARE memory
The scale has available 20 numeric tares. To memorize it, follow the
procedure below:
Memory programming
1. Press key. Display will show “PLUPro”. Press key several times
till display shows “TLUPro”.

2. Press key. Display will show the memory used last time (for instance
“lLU 01”). Last digits indicate the memory number.
Once memory position desired is selected, press and display will show
one number. To modify it and introduce a tare value, use and to
select the desired digit.
To go to right digit, press to modify it use and . To modify any
digit on the left, press still the desired digit sparks, then follow the same
procedure explained before.
To finish, press key and tare will be saved. If we wish to keep saving tares,
press again and follow the same procedure.
To finish, after confirming the last tare saved, display will show “ILUPro”.
Press to escape to weighting mode.
TARE memory use
In weighting mode, with empty plate, press longer than a second till
“TLU XX” is shown, where XX is the last digit of the TARE memory saved.
To access to another memory position, press and to surf along
the tare memories still you find the desired memory number.
To confirm, press . Display will show tare memory value with negative
sign. Now you can place the object in the plate, and the tare value will be
deducted from weighting value (shows net weight).


15
You can operate with the object in the plate, then the display indicates the net
weighting value.
Auto-Tare
This function allows tare function with recipient or box to be done
automatically, without pressing button. Display detects the first weight
(recipient or box), then operates tare function (sets to 0), and gets ready to
weight the product in the box or recipient. Afterwards, it sets to 0 and you
can start again the same procedure repeatedly without pressing any button.
Function activation
To enable Auto Tare, follow these instructions:
1. Press . Display will show “PLUPro”. Press several times, still
display shows “AUT-t”.
2. Press . Display will show in the last position one digit, in accordance
with the following meaning:
0. Unable function.
1. Enabled Function.
3. Press to confirm. Press to return to weighting mode.


16
Function use
1. Place the recipient or box over the plate. Scale will operate the tare
function and display will show 0 and tare symbol will be on.
2. Place the object or objects inside the recipient or box. Display will show
net weight, deducting the tare (recipient/box weight).
3. Remove all objects from the plate. Display will cancel tare and set to 0.
4. To weight again, repeat the same operation. You can use it indefinitely
without pressing any button.
Current weighing
Switch on the scale pressing button.
Display will be on in a few seconds, afterwards it will show zero value.
If there is any object in the plate, display will show the object weight, except
from the case its weight is very low, then scale will start next zero following.
Press to select desired weighting unit (default unit is “g“ or “kg”,
depending on its configuration).
Place the object you desire to weight over the plate. Screen will indicate
object weight value, it should be ready when “stability” symbol is shown at
the top left side on the display.


17
Accumulative weighing
This function adds up all weighting values accumulated, and shows its total value.
To use it, place the object you desire to weight, when display show stabilized
weight value (stability symbol on), press then, weight value adds to total.
Place another object, assure between new and previous object plate sets to
0 with stability symbol on.
Press again and the second weight will be added to total.
You can weight several objects following this procedure.
To know accumulated sum value, press and display will show total
accumulated value.




18
You can check accumulated weight value when you desire, and keep on
accumulating weight values. To erase memory, press and accumulated
value will be deleted.
Piece counting function
The use of this mode is to count pieces of homogeneous weight. After doing
a simple sampling, scale saves the piece weight, and indicate the number of
pieces placed in the plate.
Sampling
To do the sampling, when scale shows 0 and plate is empty, press and hold for
longer than a second button, still display shows “10” or other value flashing.
This value is the quantity of pieces you can place on the plate as sampling.
If pieces are small, to increase the precision of counting it is recommended
to place a number larger than 10. To do it, press , then increase the
sampling value to 20, 30, 50 or 100. To decrease, press .
Once desired value is selected, count the number of pieces indicated on the
display and press . Display will stop flashing and will show sampling value.


19
Counting
Place the pieces you desire to count (it should be the same unitary weight
from the sampling) in the weighting plate. It can be counted inside a recipient,
if tare has been done before (check Tare Use chapter)
Display will show the total quantity of pieces.
To return to Weight mode in the standard weight unit, press .
If you desire to return to piece counting mode using the same unitary weight
than last time, press several times still display shows “PCS” symbol.
Piece counting Preset
When display on piece counting mode (“PCS” on) and the stability symbol on,
press .
Press once, and display will show “CLUPro”.
The two digits on the right are the 100 memory position available (from 00 to 99).
Use and to set the target value in the flashing digit, use and
to set the other digit.
Use and to set the desired memory position value, and confirm with .


20
Display will show again “CLUPro”. Press to escape to counting mode.
To access to memory database and change one position, press and hold .
Scale will show “CLU XX”, where XX is the memory position.
Use and to increase and decrease the flashing digit, use and
to move the digit on the right or the left. When setting desired memory
position, press to confirm it.
Scale from now will be programmed with the set piece counting memory.
We can start piece counting placing pieces on the counting plate or in a
recipient if we use tare function.
