CLS-920i Installation Manual 5
1.3.3 Operating Modes
The 920i has two modes of operation:
Normal mode
Normal mode is the weighing mode of the indicator. The indicator displays gross, net, or tare weights as
required, using the secondary display to indicate scale status and the type of weight value displayed. Once
configuration is complete and a legal seal is affixed to the large fillister-head screw on the indicator enclosure,
this is the only mode in which the
920i can operate.
Setup mode
Most of the procedures described in this manual require the indicator to be in setup mode, including
configuration and calibration.
To enter setup mode, remove the large fillister head screw from the enclosure. Insert a screwdriver or a similar
tool into the access hole and press the setup switch once. The indicator display changes to show scale
configuration menus.
