2.1 Package Contents
• Scale
• Pan
• Power Adapter
• Instruction Manual
• Warranty Card
2.2 Location
Use the scale on a firm, steady surface. Avoid locations with excessive air current,
vibrations, heat sources, or rapid temperature changes.
2.3 Leveling the Scale

IMPORTANT: To relieve any internal pressure and allow proper airflow
inside the scale, unscrew the two rear leveling feet slightly, then level
the scale accordingly. When cleaning the scale, the rear leveling feet
must be screwed in tightly to avoid entry of water inside the scale.
2.4 Power
2.4.1 AC Power
The AC adapter (included) may be used to power the scale when battery power is
not available. Remove the rubber seal in the back. Connect the AC adapter plug to
the input jack. Then plug the AC adapter into a properly grounded power outlet.
NOTE: To prevent water ingress during use, insert rubber Seal into
the input jack recess.

2.4.2 Battery Power
The scale can be operated on the internal rechargeable battery when AC power is not
available. The scale will automatically switch to battery operation if there is a power
failure or the power cord is removed.
Before using the scale for the first time, the battery should be fully
charged for up to 12 hours. During charging, the battery Indicator
displays the charge level (see Table 2-1), and the scale can be operated
during charging. The battery is protected against over charging and the
scale can remain connected to the AC power line.
TABLE 2-1. BATTERY CHARGE STATUS.
Charge Status Indication Light Charge level
Off Fully Charged
Flashing Green 70 – 100 %
Flashing Yellow 40 – 70 %
Flashing Red 0 – 40 %
The scale can operate for approximately 60 hours on a fully charged battery.
During battery operation, the battery Indicator displays the battery status (see Table
2-2).

Accuracy not guaranteed
NOTE:
• Charging the scale must only be performed in a dry environment.
• Install the rubber seal securely to ensure the scale is protected when
operating in a wet environment.
CAUTION: Battery is to be replaced only by an authorized Ohaus service
dealer.
Risk of explosion can occur if replaced with the wrong type or connected
improperly.
Dispose of the lead acid battery according to local laws and regulations.

2.5 Initial Calibration
When the scale is operated for the first time, a Span calibration is recommended to
ensure accurate weighing results. Before performing the calibration, be sure to have
the appropriate calibration weight.
Refer to section 4.2 for Span calibration procedures.
3. OPERATION
3.1 Turning Scale On/Off
To turn the scale on, press the ON/ 0/T Off button. The scale performs a display test,
momentarily displays the model/software version, and then enters the active
weighing mode.
To turn the scale off, press and hold ON/ 0/T Off button until OFF is displayed.
3.2 Zero Operation
Press the ON/ 0/T Off button to zero the weight display. The scale must be stable to
accept zero operation.
3.3 Manual Tare
Place a container on the weighing pan, then press ON/ 0/T Off. The display will
show a net value of “0”. To clear the Tare value, press ON/ 0/T Off with the pan
empty.
3.4 Changing Units of Measure
Press the UNITS/Menu button to display the next available measuring unit. Only
measuring units enabled in the Unit Menu will be displayed (refer to Section 4.4).
4. SETTINGS
The Menu allows the user to customize scale settings.
4.1 Menu Navigation
Press and hold UNITS/Menu button until MENU is displayed, then release it.
Press Yes to enter the displayed menu or press No to advance to the next menu.
When viewing the menu setting, press Yes to accept the setting, or press No to
change it, then press Yes to accept the setting and move to the next menu. When
End is displayed, press Yes to exit the menu.

4.2 CAL Menu
SPAN Perform Span calibration Yes or No.
LIN Perform Linearity calibration Yes or No.
NOTE:
• Ensure the appropriate calibration masses are available before beginning
calibration (see Table 4-1).
• Ensure that the scale is level and stable during the entire calibration
process.
• Calibration is unavailable with LFT set to On.
• Allow the scale to warm up for approximately 5 minutes after stabilizing
to room temperature.
• To abort calibration, power off the scale.

4.2.1 Span Calibration
Span Calibration uses two points to adjust the scale. The first point is the zero value
where there is no weight on the scale. The second point is the Span value where a
calibration mass is placed on the scale.
When SPAN is displayed, press the Yes button to access
the Span Calibration menu item.
The display flashes 0.
With no weight on the scale, press the Yes button to
establish the zero point.
The display shows --C-- while the zero point is
established.

EN-7Valor 2000 Series Scales
The display flashes the span calibration point. Place the
specified weight on the scale and press the Yes button.
To choose a different span point, repeatedly press the No
button to increment the selections. When the desired
value is displayed, place the specified weight on the scale
and press the Yes button.
The display shows --C-- while the span point is
established.
If span calibration was successful, dONE is displayed
and the scale exits to the active weighing mode and
displays the actual weight value.
4.2.2 Linearity Calibration
Linearity calibration uses 3 calibration points. The first calibration point is
established with no weight on the scale. The second calibration point is established
at approximately half capacity. The third calibration point is established at capacity.
The Linearity calibration points are fixed and cannot be altered by the user during the
calibration procedure.
When LIN is displayed, press the Yes button to access the
Linearity Calibration menu item.
The display flashes 0.
With no weight on the scale, press the Yes button to
establish the zero point.
The display shows --C-- while the zero point is
established.
The display flashes the mid calibration point. Place the
specified weight on the scale and press the Yes button.
The display shows --C-- while the mid point is
established.

EN-8 Valor 2000 Series Scales
The display flashes the full calibration point. Place the
specified weight on the scale and press the Yes button.
The display shows --C-- while the full calibration point is
established.
If linearity calibration was successful, dONE is displayed
and the scale exits to the active weighing mode and
displays the actual weight value.
