Operation Menu Structure
Normal weighing mode (Calibration Switch is off)
Under normal weighing mode, when the seal switch is off, use MENU key to toggle between AL.ON, WT.ON, or
AL.OFF, which meaning Backlight On, Backlight auto on when key operation or weight changing, and auto off
after 30s elapsed, or Backlight Off. Press Zero to confirm the setting, and the scale will be back to normal
weighing mode.

Calibration Switch is on
Under normal weighing mode, when the seal switch is on, press MENU key, “CAL” will be shown in display
window, press MENU key to shift between “USER”, “END” or “CAL”, and press ZERO key to confirm to enter
into the menu. .

Weighing operation:
Power on scale: when scale is off, press ON/OFF key to turn on;
Power off scale: when scale is on, press and hold ON/OFF key to turn off the scale.
ZERO: When the weight is stable and within the zero range (2%FS) , press ZERO key to set new zero point.
How to change weight unit
With the calibration switch on, turn on the scale and enter into normal weighing mode.
Press MENU key, and CAL will be displayed.
Press ZERO key to confirm to enter this mode. A calibration counter will be displayed and then
WET.UT.
Press ZERO key to confirm.
Use MENU key to toggle between kg, lb, or oz.
Press ZERO key to confirm. The scale will show WET.UT
Use MENU key to scroll to END.
Press ZERO key to confirm.
Scale will restart
Close calibration switch
The scale will return back to normal weighing mode.
Calibration
Note: Please prepare a standard weight (more than 10% of FS weight) prior to starting calibration.
With the calibration switch on, turn on the scale and enter into normal weighing mode
Press MENU key, and CAL will be displayed
Press ZERO key to confirm to enter this mode. A calibration counter will be displayed and then
WET.UT
Press MENU key to select CAL.UT
Press ZERO key to confirm
Press MENU to toggle between kg and lb
Press zero to confirm. The scale will show CAL.UT
Press MENU to select LINE
Press ZERO to confirm
Scale will show CAL.P0. Remove all weight on scale
Press ZERO to confirm to calibrate the zero point; the zero weight will flash and show CAL.P1
Put the weight (more than 10%FS weight) onto scale
Set the corresponding weight value on the display by pressing MENU key to increase and ZERO key to
change the position of the cursor (active number will flash)
Once the correct value has been set, press ZERO key to confirm
Scale will show END.Y and Y is flashing
Press ZERO to confirm
Scale will show LINE
Press MENU key to select END
Press ZERO to confirm
Scale will reboot
Close calibration switch
If scale shows CAL.Er” Review the setup parameters and try to recalibrate the scale again

Config menu
In normal weighing mode, when the seal switch on, long press MENU + ON/OFF key, “CONFG” will be shown in
display window, press MENU key to shift between “CAL”,“USER”, “MISC”, “TEST”,“END” or “CAL”, and press ZERO
key to confirm to enter into the menu.

Serial Communication
Serial port: Wires come from RS232 connector, and TXD1, RXD1 and GND are used.
USB port: Wires come from USB connector, and TXD0, RXD0 and GND are used.
The baud rate and byte format is set by USER-COM-BAUD.RT and USER-COM-BYT.FMT. Responses
to serial commands will be immediate, or within one weight measure cycle of the scale. One second
should be adequate for use as a time-out value by remote (controlling) device.
