Displaying Individual Load Cell Outputs:
After entering diagnostics, press the lb / kg button to toggle up between the individual load cell readings.
15 − 45 lbs is a typical reading for an empty stretcher. Anything drastically outside that range indicates a prob-
lem with that load cell. Before replacing a load cell, verify the cable to the individual load cell is properly con-
nected. A reading of 497.5 lbs indicates the load cell cable is disconnected or the load cell has been damaged.
If the system detects a defective load cell, the display will read
Test
then
Err
. Verify the load cell cable is
properly connected. If it is, replace the load cell. When the load cell is functioning properly, the display will
read
Test
then
Good
. The scale will operate normally.
Battery Voltage:
After entering diagnostics, press the lb / kg button to toggle up to the
BATT
function. If the battery voltage
reading is below 5.1, change the batteries (see page 6). The display will read
LO BATT
and the battery icon
will be flashing at this voltage.
