Operation of the
Optional Footswitch
If you have the optional footswitch attached to the scale you can use it to
zero the scale or print a weighment, depending on how the scale is config-
ured.
To zero the scale with the footswitch, empty the scale and press the
footswitch. The scale display will show
0
weight.
To print a weighment with the footswitch, place the item on the scale, wait
for the weight to stabilize and press the footswitch. The printer will print the
weighment.
If the scale is equipped with the battery option, the scale can be shut off by
pressing and holding the
ZERO
key for approximately five seconds.
The sleep timer should only be used on battery equipped scales. The
SLEEP timer can be set to NONE (default for non-battery units), 5 (default
for battery equipped units), 30, or 60 minutes. If a value other then NONE
is chosen then after the selected time period with no scale or button activity
several electronic functions will go to sleep to save battery power. The
display will show
SLEEP
and pressing any key will wake-up the scale.
The power down timer, if configured, will shut off the scale completely after
approximately 1 hour of sleep. To power up the scale from this state you
must either press the
ON
button located near the connections on the back of
the scale or unplug and then plug-in the power cord.
