All signal

levels fall

within the +0

to +15mV

range

The Millivolt range is

outside the

+0 to +15 mV range

Check for

mechanical

reasons, or replace

Millivolt reading is

slow or 0.0 mV. It

may be a negative

reading. Use a multi-

SMART DIAGNOSTICS is a built-in system diagnostics
utility that enables the operator to rapidly
troubleshoot a weighing system from the front panel,
PDA or Web Browser of the HI 3030. Used with an HI
SD card you can read each individual load cell in mV,
mV/V and weight to determine if a load sensor is
malfunctioning or not connected.

Apply weight
and insure all
signal voltages
increased the
same amount
