2.2.2 Load cells (platform / balance)
Weighing platforms are generally provided with a cable for the connection with the display,
therefore they have a circular 9-pole connector that will be screwed on that which the instrument is
provided with.
If the cable of cells must be wired with the connector, please refer to the diagram indicated
herebelow using a cable with 6 shielded leads whose section complies with the ratio of 0.5 mm² x
70 m.

3 INSTALLATION
3.1 GENERAL RULES
This instrument will be installed according to the following instructions:
Avoid unstable supporting surfaces and, if necessary, use the special support for wall application,
make sure that the fastening screws have got grip on.
When the instrument is installed in an electric board, make sure that its case does not rest on other
devices included in it.
The connecting leads have to be inserted and screwed onto the internal terminals correctly to avoid
accidental disconnections.
The connecting leads must be laid so that they cannot hamper moving people or machines.
Do not install the instrument near equipment that do not comply with the standards stated by UE
regulations concerning emission of radio-frequency noises.
Avoid any contact of this instrument with corrosive acids.
Do not use sharpened tools to press the buttons of the keyboard.
As regards the installation of the weight detecting system, please comply with the specific
instructions of your own instrument.

4 OPERATIONAL FUNCTIONS:
4.1 SWITCHING THE INSTRUMENT ON/OFF
Switch the instrument on by pressing the key
All the display units will be enabled for some seconds to undergo an operational check.
Then the display will start the zero search.
After searching zero the display is prepared for weighing operations.
If zero search were unsuccessful, some dashes will appear in the central part of the weight
display.
4.2 AUTOMATIC ZERO SETTING
When the display does not indicate zero, being the plate unloaded and no tare inserted, reset
zero by pressing the key
The resetting range is 2% of the maximum capacity.
4.3 AUTOMATIC TARE
Enable the automatic tare by pressing the key
This operation is carried out in any mode ( NET or PIECES), with positive gross weight lower
than the max. capacity. Then the value is cleared with C and when the instrument is switched
off.

4.4 CLEARING THE TARE
Clear the tare by pressing the key
4.5 SELECTING THE DISPLAY OF NET WEIGHT / PIECES
Pressing the key
will alternately select the display of net weight and pieces (pieces, only if a sampling
operations has been carried out).
4.6 PRINTING THE WEIGHING OPERATION
Pressing the key
will lead to this operation in any mode (NET or PIECES), with positive gross weight lower than
the max. capacity.
4.7 SETTING PRESET TARES
Press the following key
Set the digital value and press ENTER
This operation is carried out in any mode ( NET or PIECES), with positive gross weight lower
than the max. capacity. Then the value is cleared with C and when the instrument is switched
off.
