3 Operating Instructions
3.1 Power up
The indicator can be powered by one of the battery options on the BSQ scale or by AC
power supply. If the battery option is used, there is a power key on the rear of the scale.
Press and hold the key until the screen lights up. If AC power is used, when the power
is on, the indicator is on.
When the indicator is powered up with the Grading application active, you will see a
start screen similar to the one below.
With the Grading application active the screen shows the user name, the time and date,
empty bar graphs for each grade (1-10), the weight on the scale, the last weight and
three soft keys.
