About This Manual
This manual contains operating procedures for the DC-100 counting scales and provides the user with all the
information necessary for setup and operation. It is organized based on the procedures you will likely follow
when setting up and using your counting scale. This manual applies to Version 1.27 of the DC-100 counting
scale series.
Some procedures described in this manual require work inside the scale base. These procedures are to
be performed by qualified service personnel only.
Authorized distributors and their employees can view or download this manual from the

Introduction
The DC-100 counting scale offers practical solutions for a full range of precision counting applications. A bright
dot matrix LCD display enables operators to easily view quantities, and a second line of alphanumeric text
messaging displays operator prompts and part numbers to enable job sequencing. Two thousand item memory
and an RS-232 port enable the DC-100 to provide real-time data collection and position it for the future growth
of your business. Multiple scales can be connected to the DC-100, as well as a bar code scanner, external printer
or keyboard. When portability is required, choose the battery operation option of the DC-100 for over 30 hours of
continuous use for mobile workstations, outdoor applications, and rental fleets. It’s built to withstand transport
from one area of the plant to another or from one business to the next. Simply connect a printer via RS-232 for
labeling tasks.

Capacities and Resolutions
Table 1-1 and Table 1-2 list the scale capacities and resolutions for all models of the DC-100 counting scales.
The system weighing accuracy is 0.02 percent.
Counting scales specify two types of resolution:
•
Weight (or external) resolution
•
Counting (or internal) resolution
Weight resolution is displayed in divisions of the full scale capacity which is divided into weight increments. For
example, a 5-lb scale divided into 10,000 display divisions would display weight with 0.0005 lb divisions
(10,000 divisions x 0.0005 lb = 5.0 lb).
Counting resolution is based on the internal resolution of the scale. The weight and counting resolutions for the
DC-100 capacities are shown on the next page.
