HELPFUL DEFINITIONS
Division: The amount of increments a scale offers. How accurate the scale can be
Capacity: the maximum amount the scale can contain
Zero Range: % of the max capacity that the scale is allowed to zero, anything above
this percentage number will be tared.
Initial Zero Range: The percentage of weight allowed on the scale when indicator is powered
on that will automatically zero (anything above this percent will be tared).
example: If initial zero range is set to 10% of the max. capacity and your max. capacity is
100lbs, you can place up to 10lbs of weight on the scale and when the indicator is powered on, it
will automatically zero out the weight.
Manual Zero Range: The percentage of weight allowed on the scale where the indicator will let
you manually zero by pressing the ZERO key (anything above this percent will be tared).
Negative Range: How far you can go in the negative direction before displaying an
error code
Baud Rate: The rate at which information is transferred in a communication channel.
example: In the serial port context, “9600 baud” means that the serial port is capable of
transferring a maximum of 9600 bits per second.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Error
Reason
Solution
UUUUUU
1. Overload
2. Wrong connection with load cell
3. Load cell has quality problem
1. Reduce the weight
2. Check load cell connection
3. Inspect load cell; Check the input/output
nnnnnnn
1. Calibration is no good
2. Wrong connection with load cell
3. Load cell has quality problem
1. Make sure scale is level
2. Check load cell connection
3. Check load cell input and output resistance
ERR1
During calibration, weight is not used or
the weight is above the max. capacity
Use correct weight within the defined range
ERR2
During calibration, the weight is below
the minimum required weight
The calibration weight minimum is 10% of
the max. capacity set in C04.
Recommended to use 60%-80% of max.
capacity if possible
ERR3
During calibration, the input signal is
negative
1. Check all wire connections
2. Check load cell
3. Recalibrate
4. PCB replacement needed if steps 1-3 fail
ERR4
During calibration signal is unstable
After the platform is stable, start calibration
ERR5
EEPROM Error
Change PCB
