1.2 Overview
The 480 is a single-channel digital weight indicator housed in a NEMA Type 4X/IP66-rated stainless steel enclosure. The
indicator front panel consists of a large (.8 inch/20 mm), six-digit, seven-segment backlight LED display, with a seven-button
keypad (480) or an 18-button full numeric keypad (480 Plus).
Features
• Auto switching AC power supply 115 VAC to 230 VAC, 50-60 Hz
• Drives up to ten 350 ohmsor twenty 700 ohms load cells
• Supports four and six wire load cell connections
• Two communications ports with demand or continuous (COM 2 only) outputs
• Unit ID up to six numeric, operator entered.
• Accumulator with report and clear
• Time and date
• Audit trail tracking
• Configurable LED backlight
• Optional Ethernet/USB can connect to PC or printer in operation mode, or a flash drive to save or load configuration
• Optional analog output module provides 0–10/2-10 VDC or 0–20/4–20 mA tracking of gross or net weight values
• Optional digital I/O card, four outputs/two inputs for setpoints and key functions
Supported Applications
• Custom ticket Printing: gross, net & setpoint format can be customized up to 300 characters and print time and date, unit
ID, and consecutive ticket number
• Basic Weighing: gross or net mode with operator menu to other functions
• Accumulation: weights are totaled, with armed print function
• Batching: up to eight batch steps with latched or continuous outputs for gross, net or delay setpoint; actions include trip
high or low, wait for standstill, print, accumulate and tare
• Keyed Tare: preset tare value can be entered when the gross weight is at zero
• Local/Remote: remote unit displays weight and transmits key press commands to the local unit
1.3 Operating Modes
The 480 has four modes of operation.
Normal (Primary) Weigh Mode
Normal mode is the default mode of the indicator. The indicator displays gross or net weights as required, using the
annunciators described in Section 1.6 on page 4 to indicate scale status and the type of weight value displayed.
Configuration Mode
Most of the procedures described in this manual, including calibration, require the indicator to be in configuration mode.
To enter configuration mode:
1. Remove the setup switch access screw from the back of the enclosure, See Figure 2-1 on page 11.
2. Insert a non-conductive tool into the access hole and press the configuration switch. Indicator displays CONFIG.
User Menu Setup Mode
The user menu setup mode is used to access the accumulator functions, audit trail, display the tare, unit ID, Time & date,
setpoints, data communications parameters, print formats, and view the firmware version.
It is accessible by pressing the Menu key on the front panel.
See Section 3.1 on page 24 for more information about the user setup mode.
Test Mode
Test mode provides a number of diagnostic functions for the 480 indicator, See Section 9.13 on page 71 for more information
about entering and using test mode.

1.5 Keypad Functions
Key Function
Turns the unit on/off
NOTE: If power mode is set to manual, the Power key must be used to turn the unit on and off. If power mode is set to auto, the
unit will automatically power on when it’s plugged in and the only way to turn it off is to unplug power, See Section 3.1.7 on
page 33.
The Menu key is used to access the User Setup menu
Sets the current gross weight to zero, provided the amount of weight to be removed or added is within the specified zero range and the
scale is not in motion; the zero band is defaulted to 2% of full scale, but can be configured for up to 100% of full scale; also used as a move
up key to navigate to different menu levels or used to increment a number when editing a value
Switches the weight display to an alternate unit; the alternate unit is defined in the Configuration menu and could be kg, g, lb, oz, tn, or t;
also used as a scroll left key to navigate to different menus or to toggle to another digit when editing a value
Sends an on-demand print format out the serial port, provided the conditions for standstill are met; PRINT may be displayed while printing;
also used as a scroll right key to navigate to different menus or to toggle to another digit when editing a value
Performs one of several predetermined tare functions dependent on the mode of operation selected in the TAREFN parameter; to view a
stored tare, See Section 1.8.6 on page 7; also acts as an Enter key for numeric or parameter entry
Switches the display mode from gross to net, or from net to gross. If a tare value has been entered or acquired, the net value is the gross
weight minus the tare; gross mode is displayed by the Gross/Brutto annunciator; net mode is displayed by the Net annunciator; also used
as a move down key to navigate to different menu levels or to decrement a number when editing a value
During a numeric entry, sets the currently select digit to zero then selects one digit to the right

Number Name Function
1 Battery Level The battery icon indicates the level of the battery
2 Gross/Brutto Gross weight display mode (or Brutto in OIML mode)
3 Net Net weight display mode
4 Zero (Center of Zero) The Center of Zero annunciator indicates that the current gross weight reading is within +/- 0.25 display divisions of
the acquired zero, or is within the center of zero band; a display division is the resolution of the displayed weight value,
or the smallest incremental increase or decrease that can be displayed or printed
5 Standstill Scale is at standstill or within the specified motion band; some operations, including zero, tare and printing, can only
be done when the standstill annunciator is on
6 T Indicates a push-button tare weight has been acquired and stored in memory
7 PT Indicates that a preset tare weight has been keyed in or entered and stored in memory
8 lb / kg / g / oz / t Displays which unit of measure is being used:
lb = pounds
kg = kilograms
g = grams
oz = ounces
t = for either short tons and metric tons

2.0 Installation
2.1 Unpacking
Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the 480 to ensure all components are included and undamaged. The shipping
carton should contain the indicator, this manual, and a parts kit. If parts were damaged in shipment, notify Rice Lake Weighing
Systems and the shipper immediately, See Section 2.8 on page 19 for parts kit contents.
2.2 Enclosure Disassembly
The indicator enclosure must be opened to connect the scale load cell cable and other interface connection.
Before opening the unit, ensure the power cord is disconnected from the power outlet.
Ensure power to the indicator is disconnected then place the indicator face-down on an anti-static work mat. Remove the
screws that hold the backplate to the enclosure body. Lift the backplate away from the enclosure and turn it over to access
boards.
The display cable will still be attached. Be careful when lifting and turning over the backplate to prevent the
backplate from potential damaged.
2.3 Cable Connections
The 480 provides four cord grips for cabling into the indicator: one for the power cord, three to accommodate load cell,
communications, digital inputs and outputs, and analog output cables. Two of the three free cord grips come with a plug
installed to prevent moisture from entering the enclosure. Depending on the application, remove the plug from another cord grip
that will be used and install cables as required, See Figure 2-1 for the recommended assignments for the 480 cord grips.
Figure 2-1. Recommended Cord Grip Assignments
When installing cords through cord grips, ensure the cord grip is tightened snuggly to prevent moisture from
entering the enclosure.

2.3.1 Cable Grounding
Figure 2-2. Grounding Clamp Attachment
Except for the power cord, all cables routed through the cord grips should be grounded against the indicator enclosure.
1. Install the ground clamps on the grounding bar, use the ground clamp screws. Do not tighten the screws at this time.
2. Route the cables through the cord grips and the grounding clamps to determine the cable lengths required to reach
the cable connectors.
3. Mark the cables to remove insulation and shield, See Stripping Cables below.
4. Route stripped cables through the cord grips and grounding clamps.
5. Ensure the shields contact the grounding clamps and tighten the ground clamp screws.
2.3.2 Stripping Cables
Foil Insulated Cable
1. Strip the insulation and foil from the cable 1/2 (15 mm) past the grounding clamp.
2. Fold the foil shield back on the cable where the cable passes through the clamp.
3. Ensure the silver (conductive) side of the foil is turned outward for contact with the grounding clamp.
Figure 2-3. Foil Insulated Cable
Braided Shielding
1. Strip the insulation and braided shield from a point just past the grounding clamp.
2. Strip another 1/2 (15 mm) of the insulation to expose the braid where the cable passes through the clamp.
