GENERAL INFORMATION
The 9750A is a versatile indicator capable of displaying many data items. As a member of the CellScale family
the 9750A does not stand alone. It is a slave device to a MSI-9000 CellScale. All data displayed on the 9750A is
received via RF from a master CellScale. Many menus in the 9750A depend on information from the CellScale.
Therefore, turn the CellScale on before using the 9750A.
Due to the high data rates in the CellScale system menus usually respond instantly. However there are times
when the CellScale is busy and it will not “service” the 9750A instantly in all circumstances. At these times you
may see the word “Pending” or dashes, or data placeholders which will indicate the CellScale has not yet sent
the required information. Weight displays have priority and are sent before all text strings are updated (such as
channel name, ID name, etc.).
The majority of CellScale installations have only a single scale input. In this case the Multiple Display modes
are not needed. However, even with only a single scale input, Math Channels are available which can be applied
for specialized applications.
MANUAL & 9750A CONVENTIONS
1) Keys used in operations are printed in
BLUE
and capitalized. Numeric keys are bracketed (e.g.
[5]
).
2) Setup procedures are usually shown with the shortcut method of reaching the menu. All menus can also be
reached through the “Setup Select Menu”. Use the
[7]
key to see all available menu choices.
3) Screen shots are shown for example. Many screens provide additional information to orient the user to the
scale channel, or ID, or selections made. For example, the Function Key Setup menu will show you the current
selection for each key. When you change the function, the previous menu changes to refl ect your choice.
4) If a function key does not work, it is probably because the CellScale is not setup to support the key. For
example, if only one channel is defi ned in the CellScale, pressing the
CHANNEL
key will have no effect.
This also applies to the
ADDRESS
key. If only one Network has been defi ned, the
ADDRESS
key has no
other Network to log onto.
5) Menu Titles are shown at the top of the LCD screen and are fully capitalized.
6) When space permits, selected parameters are shown at the right side fully capitalized.
7) Submenus with multiple choices use a highlighted arrow “
4
” to indicate current choice(s).
8) When in menus, the
ESC
key (same as
SETUP
) drops back one menu level.
9) When in Setup Menus, the
DISPLAY
key returns you directly to the Weight Display (Exit mode).
10) Cursor Keys (alternate functions of F1, F2, F5 and F6) only function in menus. Use the DOWN (
v
) cursor
key to enable the cursors then use the UP (
^
) or DOWN (
v
) cursor to select line items. Use,
ENTER
, LEFT
(
<
), or RIGHT (
>
) cursor keys to rotate through menu choices or select the associated submenu.
11) If a submenu is associated with a menu choice, either highlight the menu choice with the cursor keys and
press
ENTER
, or press the numbered key corresponding to the desired menu item.
12) If a menu applies to any channel, pressing the
CHANNEL
key will select the next channel in the CellScale’s
scan list.
13) If a menu applies to any ID, pressing the
ID
key will select the next ID in the CellScale’s ID list.
14) To input, for example, an ‘E’, fi rst use the
ALPHA
key to change to alpha mode, then press
[2]
twice. If you
need two ‘E’s, pause briefl y until the display cursor has moved to the next position, then press
[2]
twice.
15) In single display modes, pressing the
ENTER
key highlights the whole display to indicate the next press of
a Function key will use the alternate mode (Enter-Function Key).
