7600 SERIES - OPERATIONS
SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
This manual covers the
Operations and Programming/Calibration of the
Pennsylvania Model 7600 Series Scale.
The
7600
has been designed to be simple and easy to operate. It also has many features that
make it extremely versatile to use such as:
•
Standard RS-232 Interface with a selectable output for communications with a computer
or printer.
•
Adjustable response time
•
Single board electronics for ease of servicing.
•
Simple one button counting operation.
•
Weight reading may be switched between two weighing units.
•
May be programmed as either weigh and count or weigh only.
•
Keypad entry of tare weight.
•
Keypad entry of piece weight.
•
Optional second weighing platform.
In addition, the
7600
can be calibrated with the keypad or through the RS-232 Interface to match
the requirements of the application on hand, as it employs a digital calibration technique that
eliminates dip switches and potentiometers.
