My Weigh iBalance i1200 User manual

Thank you for purchasing the MyWeigh® iBalance i1200™ digital scale. Please read all operating instructions carefully before use.
This electronic scale is a precision instrument.With normal care and proper treatment, it will provide years of reliable service. For

Neverloadthescalewithmorethanthemaximal capacity.Although theiBalance i1200™ isdesigned tobe extremelydurablewith
extra overload protection built into the case, overloading will permanently damage it! Avoid any exposure to extreme heat or
cold, your scale works better when operated at normal room temperature. Keep your scale in a clean environment. Dust, dirt,
moisture, vibration, air currents and/or a close proximity to other electronic equipment can all cause an adverse eect on the
reliability and accuracy of your scale. Handle with care. Gently apply all items to be weighed onto tray top. Avoid shaking,
droppingor otherwiseshockingthescale.Scales aredelicateinstrumentsandunlikecellular phones,scaleshave delicatesensors
that determine how much an item weighs. If you drop or shock your scale, these sensors“feel”the shock and are sometimes
destroyed.Thishappens with all digitalscales.Wedesign our scales to be as resistantto shock or drops as possible,howeverthere
is no way for us to protect 100% against load cell or sensor damage.
Failure to follow these instructions will void your warranty.
Always allow the scale to acclimate to normal room temperature for at least one hour before use. Give your scale sucient warm
up time. Usually 30-60 seconds before calibration to give the internal components a chance to stabilize.

BATTERIES
Low Batteries & bad battery connections are the #1 cause of scale malfunction and inaccuracy! We test all of our scale returns
from consumers and 60% of them are battery related problems.This sounds silly but it's true! A scale will perform poorly when it
has low batteries. Use good quality batteries & replace them often ( Remove the batteries if you plan to store the scale for longer
then 14 days).We include good quality batteries with all of our scales but they can run low in storage. If your scale simply won't
turnon while on battery power,itisoftencaused byloosebatteryconnections.Battery prongs(terminals)aremadeofmetal and
they have to be in contact with the batteries. You can use a paperclip to slightly bend the battery prongs to have a better
connection. Some poorly designed batteries have recessed or partially obstructed battery terminals.This may cause your prongs
to be touching the plastic housing of the battery instead of the metal of the battery terminal.
Battery installation
a) Press and lift open the battery cover located at the bottom of the unit.
b) Insert 6xAA batteries and make sure the polarity is correct (+) and ( - ).
c) Close the battery cover until it clicks shut.
Note : If the battery symbol appears in the display, it means low battery power. It is time to replace the battery. If the power is too
low, it will show“Lo”when powered on and then it will turn o automatically.
Weighing procedures
1. Place the scale on a at hard surface.
2. Press [ON/OFF] to turn on the scale.
3. Select the weighing unit with [MODE].
Press [MODE] to select a weighing unit "g","oz" ,"lb","ozt" ,"dwt","ct","gn" or "pcs".
4. Gently place the items to be weighed on the scale platform.
TARE/ZERO MODE
Tare can be used for eliminating the weight value of an empty container. Place an empty container on the scale and
press ZERO. Then place the items to be weighed in the container. NOTE: When all weight is removed from the
weighing tray, the tared value of a container will be displayed as a negative number. Press ZERO again to return the
scale to zero.
CALIBRATION
When to calibrate - calibration is RARELY required.
Calibration may be required when the scale is rst set up for use, or if the scale is moved to a dierent altitude or
gravitation. This is necessary because the weight of a mass in one location is not necessarily the same in another
location. Also, with time and use, mechanical deviations can occur.

How to calibrate
**you must have an accurate 1000 gram weight or combination of weights in order to calibrate**
1. The scale must be powered OFF. Press and hold [SET] rst, then Press [ON/OFF] while keeping the [SET] button
depressed, then release both keys.The display will show CAL then the A/D value (a series of random numbers).
2.Wait 3 seconds, Press [SET] the display will show "-----", then after 2 seconds the display will return to the random
1000.0.
3. Place 1000 grams of weight(s) on platform. Wait a few seconds then press [SET], the display will show "------"and
then the A/D value. Calibration is complete, remove the weight(s).
4.Turn the scale OFF (Press the ON/OFF key) , then turn it back ON and check some weight readings. If calibration is
still incorrect, repeat calibration but try it more slowly.
If calibration is repeatedly incorrect then: 1) Replace the batteries, 2) Try a more stable surface or vibration and
interference free location, 3) Be sure there is no static electricity on the scale (use an anti-static spray to remove
static electricity)
FEATURES
Power Up Segment Test
When rst turning the unit on, the scale will run a quick diagnostic and it will display a countdown . This display will
remain for a few seconds and then reset to zero.
Overload indicator
When the display shows“Err-0”, this indicates an overload. Remove excessive load immediately.
Remember: you can permanently damage the scale and void your warranty by overloading it!
Negative Value
Any tared value will be displayed as a negative number once all weight is removed, press [ZERO] to re-zero the scale.
Auto o
An auto shut o feature is provided to conserve battery power. The unit will automatically turn o after 90 seconds
of inactivity.
To enable or diasable the auto-o setting:
The scale should be OFF. Press and hold [ZERO] , then press and release [ON/OFF] the display will show A-ON or
A-OFF. Press zero to toggle between the settings.
A-ON = Auto o enabled
A-OFF =Auto-o disabled
To conrm the setting and return to weighing mode turn the scale o and on again
Stainless Steel Tray
The i1200 comes complete with a stainless steel tray. Please clean with any standard metal cleaner

Weighmeter TM:
On the side of the display you will notice a series of bars that increase as the
load on the scale increases. This is our Weighmeter TM invention. It helps you
know the remaining capacity on the scale and also will indicate an overload if
one occurs. Please use the Weighmeter TM to monitor your weighing loads and please do not overload this scale.
COUNTING PROCEDURES
1.Press [ON/OFF] to turn on the scale. Wait for "0" to appear on the display.
2.Start the Count Procedure. If necessary, press [ZERO] key to set the display to“0”.
3. Place a given number of samples of an item on the pan (the Sample Size should be either 10、20、50 or 100
pieces). The weight of these samples will show on the display.
4. Press the [MODE] key several times to put the scale in PCS mode (the indicator should be on pcs). Pressing the
[PCS], the display show P= XX
5. Select the sample size (the same as you chose above) by pressing the [MODE] key (press it as many times as
necessary to put it in the correct sample size (the sample size is the same as in step three =10、20、50or100)
6. Press the [PCS] key, the display will show“PASS”, then after 2 seconds, the scale will remember the sample size
you selected and show the starting sample size on the display. (you can now remove the samples if you want to
return the scale to 0)
7. Place the items that you want counted onto the tray and the total number of items will show on the display.
8. Press the [MODE] key to exit the counting function and return to normal weighing or you can press [ON/OFF] to
turn the scale o . NOTE: the weight of unit sample > 10e.
**SPECIAL WARNING**
Cell-Phones, Cordless-Phones, and any radio-frequency device can cause temporary interference and
cause the scale to temporarily not work properly. Please do not use any electronic device near the
i1200.
