3.Warnings
3.1. General
•Indicator not to be subject to shock, excessive vibration or
extremes of temperature (before or after installation).
•Inputs are protected against electrical interference, but excessive
levels of electro-magnetic radiation and RFI may affect the
accuracy and stability.
•For full EMC or for RFI immunity, termination of cable shields
and correct earthing of the instrument is essential.
•Indicator is sensitive to excessive electrical noise. Install well
away from any power or switching circuits.
3.2. Configuration Issues
•Configuration can be performed from the front panel, using
digital setup. When Full Setup is used, all menu items are
accessible and care must be taken to ensure no accidental
changes are made to calibration and trade settings.
•Enter a passcode to prevent unauthorised or accidental
tampering. If the passcode is lost, the manufacturer should be
contacted for further advice.

4. Installation
The following steps are required to set up the indicator.
•Inspect indicator to ensure good condition.
•Use connection diagrams to wire up serial summing, power and
auxiliary cables as required.
•Use the drilling template provided for hole locations.
•Connect Power to indicator and press <POWER> key to turn the
instrument ON.
•Refer to the Instrument Setup section page 12 for information on
configuring the instrument.
•To turn instrument OFF press and hold <POWER> key for three
seconds (until display blanks).
4.1. Electrical Safety
•For your protection all mains electrical hardware must be rated
for environmental conditions of use.
•Pluggable equipment must be installed near an easily accessible
power socket outlet.
•To avoid the possibility of electric shock or damage to the
instrument, always switch off or isolate the instrument from the
power supply before maintenance is carried out.
4.2. Panel Mount Template
The panel mount template is supplied with the instrument. It
shows the location of the rectangular cut-out and the four
mounting screws.
4.3. Function Keys
•The Indicator has 3 user definable functions keys.
•If any of the special functions are to be used on the indicator it is

4.4. Optical Communications
A temporary infrared
communications link can
be established between the
instrument and a PC using
an optional cable. This
connection can be used to
transfer setup and
calibration information from
a PC or to download
software upgrades.
The PC end of the cable is a standard female DB9 RS232
connector. The instrument end of the cable attaches to the left
side of the instrument display.
WARNING
The optical coupling head contains a strong magnet and
should not be placed near any magnetic storage media (e.g.
credit cards, floppy disks etc.)

5. Connections
5.1. Cable Connections
All cable connections are made to the rear of the instrument using
pluggable screw terminals. It is not necessary to tin the ends of
the wires with solder or to add crimp ferrules to the wires,
however, these techniques are compatible with the terminals.
As this is a summing indicator, the loadcell connection is not
required and should not be connected.
5.2. DC Power (DC PWR +, DC PWR –)
The DC supply need not be regulated, provided that it is free of
excessive electrical noise and sudden transients. The instrument
can be operated from a high quality plug-pack as long as there is
sufficient capacity to drive it.
5.3. Summing Slave Serial Connection
5.3.1. Summing R400 Indicators using RS485
When summing using this configuration, a M4203 module is
required for the master and each slave.

5.3.2. Summing R300 Indicators using RS232 Ring
Network
5.4. Auxiliary Connections
This section provides diagrams to illustrate the communication
connections.
