LED Annunicators

The 420 display uses a set of six LED annunicators to provide additional information about the value being
displayed:

Gross

and

Net

annunciators are lit to show whether the displayed weight is a gross or net weight.

Center of zero (

): Gross weight is within 0.25 graduations of zero. This annunciator lights when the

scale is zeroed.

Standstill (

): Scale is at standstill or within the specified motion band. Some operations, including tare

functions and printing, can only be done when the standstill symbol is shown.

lb

and

kg

annunciators indicate the units associated with the displayed value: lb=pounds, kg=kilograms.

The displayed units can also be set to short tons (tn), metric tons (t), ounces (oz), grams (g), or NONE (no
units information displayed). The

lb

and

kg

LEDs function as primary and secondary units annunciators for

some combinations of primary and secondary units. If neither primary nor secondary units are lb or kg the

lb

annunciator is lit for primary units,

kg

for secondary units.

Table

1-1 shows which annunciators are used for all combinations of configured primary and secondary units. For

example:

If the primary unit is pounds (lb) and the secondary unit is kilograms (kg), the

lb

LED is lit for primary

units,

kg

for secondary units.

If the primary unit is pounds (lb) and the secondary unit is short tons (tn), the

lb

LED is lit for primary

units,

kg

for secondary units. There is not an LED for short tons, so the

kg

LED is used as the secondary

units annunciator.

If the primary unit is short tons (tn) and the secondary unit is pounds (lb), the

lb

LED is lit for primary units

(tn), and

kg

is lit for secondary units (lb). Because there is no LED for short tons, the

lb

and

kg

LEDs are

used as primary and secondary units annunciators.
