Basic Weighing Operation
To operate the PCS220 as a basic weight scale, perform the following steps:
1. Remove the PCS220 from the carry case.
2. When using the PCS220, ensure the coiled cord does not touch the top of the weighing
platform, or inaccuracies may result.
3. If desired, extend the easel at the top back of the control box by pulling it out. The easel
may be used straight for hanging, or folded at an angle for resting on a level surface.
4. Install the batteries into the control box as described in the “Battery installation” section
below.
5. Place the weighing platform on a firm, level surface.
6. Turn the PCS220 ON by pressing
7. Select the proper measurement units by repeated pressing.
The units will cycle as follows: kilograms pounds
8. If using a container to hold the objects being measured, place it empty on the center
of the platform.
9. Press to “zero-out” the scale. The display will read zero.
10. Place the material to measure in the container or on the center of the platform.
11. Read the weight on the display.
12. A positive number indicates the applied weight is greater than the zero value.
A negative number indicates the applied weight is less than the zero value.
13. Turn the PCS220 OFF by pressing until the scale turns off.
14. To conserve battery life, the PCS220 will turn itself off after 30 minutes of inactivity, unless
it is currently running a program (see programming section). The last state of the PCS220
will be restored upon power-up.
