problems.

Enter 9000 using the numeric keys on the right, then press the MODE key. The scale
display shows "registration" indicating registration mode.

Next, press the down arrow key a number of times until "communication" appears.

Press the ENTER key once to display "Upload", again to display "All Data", then a third
time to start sending data.
If the data transfer is successful, the scale will display briefly "Uploading", then "Upload
OK", then "All Data".

Go back to the PC. If the data transfer is successful, a message will be displayed on the
