CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION TO THE TI-1200 DIGITAL INDICATOR
The TI-1200 Digital Indicator is a general purpose, industrial grade weight indicator. Two models
are currently available, distinguishable by faceplate markings. Both models feature a stainless
steel enclosure and LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen. Table 1-1 shows the TI-1200 product
matrix.
Both models come with an internal 6V rechargeable battery, are capable of driving four 350Ω
load cells and operate identically. All readout up to 50,000 display divisions on a liquid crystal
display (LCD). All setup parameters may be entered via the front panel keys, including calibra-
tion.
An external power supply is included at no additional charge. The external power supply func-
tions as a charger for the rechargeable battery. The power supply may also be used as the main
power supply.
If your Model TI-1200 Digital Indicator is part of a complete floor scale or has been installed for
you, you may skip to Chapter 7 for operating instructions. Prior to using the indicator, please
read this chapter carefully and completely. Store the manual in a safe and convenient place so
it will be available if you have questions concerning the operation of the scale.
If you are an installer, the indicator's installation and wiring instructions are found in Chapter 2.
The indicator contains two main setup menus: The Setup (“F”) menu which configures the indi-
cator to your weigh platform and the User (“A”) menu which configures the serial communication
port and enables some user options. Chapter 3 gives an overview and explains how to use the
five front panel keys to maneuver and save settings in both menus. Chapters 4 and 5 explain the
Setup and User Menu options, respectively. Chapter 6 covers system calibration. Prior to in-
stalling the indicator, please read this manual carefully and completely. Store the manual in a
safe and convenient place so it will be available if you have questions concerning the setup and
operation of the scale.

Page 6-1
CHAPTER 6: CALIBRATION
6.1 CALIBRATION OVERVIEW
The indicator is calibrated by following the procedures embedded in F16 (Zero) and F17 (Span) of
the Setup Menu. Each procedure enters a value into the indicator's non-volatile memory - F16 the
zero value (deadweight) and F17 the span value (test weight). The minimum test weight that can
be used is 1% of full-scale capacity. After the two calibration procedures are executed
successfully, you should record both calibration values in Table 6-1 using the F18 View procedure.
In the unlikely event that either value is lost while in the field, the setup menu makes provisions for
re-entering these values via F19 and F20, thus eliminating the need for re-calibration with test
weights.
NOTE: This chapter assumes that the indicator is in Setup (“F”) Menu mode. If the indicator is not
in Setup Menu mode, refer to Chapter 3 for instructions.
6.2 ZERO CALIBRATION (F16)
1. While in the Setup mode, scroll to "F 16", then scroll down once using the ZERO key to enter
zero calibration menu. The display will momentarily show "C 0" followed by a value. This value
is the internal A/D count and can prove useful when trying to troubleshoot setup problems.
2. After making sure that there are no test weights on the platform, press the ZERO key to zero
out the displayed value.
3. Press the NET/GROSS key to save the zero point value. The display will show "EndC0"
momentarily, then revert back up to F16. At this time, proceed to the F17 span calibration to
complete indicator calibration.
6.3 SPAN CALIBRATION (F17)
1. While in the Setup mode, scroll to "F 17", then scroll down once using the ZERO key to enter
span calibration menu.
2. The display will momentarily show "C 1" for the span calibration, followed by a value with one
flashing digit. This value will be zero with the Decimal Point parameter selected in F10. Place
the test weight on the weighing mechanism.
3. Use the four directional keys (shown in Figure 6-1 below) to adjust the displayed value to the
actual test weight value. Increase the flashing digit by pressing the lb/kg key. Decrease the

4. After setting the exact value, press the NET/GROSS key to save the value.
5. If the calibration was successful, the display will show "EndC1" momentarily, then revert back
up to F17. At this time it is suggested that the calibration values be recorded for future use
(see Section 6.4).
6. If the calibration was not successful, one of the error messages below will appear. Take the
indicated action to correct the problem, then perform a new calibration.
"Err0" - The calibration test weight or the adjusted keyed-in weight is larger than the full
capacity of the scale. Change the calibration test weight or check the input data.
"Err1" - The calibration test weight or the adjusted keyed-in weight is smaller than 1% of the
full capacity of the scale. Change the calibration test weight or check the input data.
"Err2" - The internal resolution of the scale is not high enough to accept the calibration value.
Select a larger parameter for the Span Gain (F2). SEE APPENDIX C FOR MORE
INFORMATION.
6.4 VIEW CALIBRATION VALUES (F18)

A valid zero calibration value, obtained from a successful F16 calibration procedure, must
be used.
1. While in the Setup mode, scroll to "F 19", then scroll down once using the ZERO key.
2. The display will momentarily show "CAL 0", followed by a flashing zero. Use the four
directional keys (shown in Figure 6-1) to adjust the displayed value to the zero calibration
value.
3. After setting the exact value, press the NET/GROSS key to save the value.
4. The display will show "E CAL 0" momentarily, then revert back up to F19.
