RROR CODES

What does

no Enc

mean?

If the Encoder is off the Scale, or the Encoder cable is unplugged from
the readout,

no Enc

will appear on the display. To clear the error:

4.

Be sure the encoder is on the scale.

5.

Connect the encoder to the readout.

6.

Unplug the encoder from the readout for 5 seconds and then

reconnect.

What does

b FAIL

b FAIL

b FAIL

b FAIL

mean?

When the readout displays this message it means the battery voltage has
dropped to a level where reliable operation is no longer possible. Install
new batteries to clear this message.

What does

P FAIL

P FAIL

P FAIL

P FAIL

mean?

When the readout displays this message it means the battery voltage has
dropped to a level where reliable programming is not possible. Install
new batteries to clear this message.
