2.3 Leveling the Balance
The Scout has an illuminated level indicator as a reminder that
the balance should be leveled for accurate weighing. There is a
level bubble in a small round window on the front of the balance.
To level the balance, adjust the feet at each corner until the
bubble is centered in the circle.
Be sure the balance is level each time its location is changed.
See the Level Assist screen in the User Settings Menu.
2.4 Connecting Power
AC Adapter Installation
AC power is used to power the balance when battery power is not needed. First, connect the
AC Adapter (supplied) to the AC Adapter Input jack at the rear of the balance then connect the
AC plug to an electrical outlet.
Battery Installation
Install the four “AA” batteries with polarity as shown in the battery compartment.
Note:
After power on, it is recommended to let the balance warm up for at least 5 minutes before
using it.
2.5 Calibration
When the Balance is first installed, and when it is moved to another location, it must be
calibrated to ensure accurate weighing results.
If preferred, the balance can be manually
calibrated with external masses. Have the appropriate calibration masses available before
beginning calibration. Refer to the Calibration and Specification Sections for masses and
calibration procedure.
