Indicator Operations

The CB-2 does not allow the 920i to execute any of its standard operations like Gross/Net, Units, Print, Tare, and

Zero because they are not applicable to this application. In other words, the Gross/Net, Tare, Units, and Print

keys are disabled all the time. The Zero key is allowed at times during the loading process and while no load is

batching.

Zero Scale Process

Because the CB-2 always has two or more scales, the zeroing of the scale is a three-step process. Only the scale

that is selected can be zeroed. There are two ways to tell which scale is selected. First, the top weight widget will

show Scale #1 and display the current weight in/on scale #1 when scale # 1 is selected. It will show Scale #2 if

cement scale is selected and so on. Also, the selected scale # is displayed in the upper right hand corner of the

display.
Remember that the scale assignments will always be:

Aggregate Scale 1
Cement Scale 2
Water Scale 3

Example: To zero the cement scale;

1. Press the

Zero

key. If zeroing is not allowed at this time, you will be informed. If zeroing is allowed, the

message “

Up/Down nav keys are enabled

” is displayed.

2. Press the

down

arrow key until scale 2 (the cement scale) is shown in the top weight widget and in the

upper righthand corner of the display.

3. Press the

zero

key again. If the 920i allows the zero command, then the selected scale (scale 2, the

cement scale), should now read zero. The CB-2 automatically puts the aggregate scale (scale #1) back in

the top widget and redraws the text AGG, CEM, next to the appropriate weight widgets.
