Operation
Chapter 7 contains step-by-step instructions for operating the Hardy HI 6500 series
instrument. The procedures include complete instructions for operating the instrument
from the front panel and from the Web page. Operating procedures primarily include
Taring and/or Zeroing the instrument. We highly recommend reading the set-up and
operating procedures before operating the instrument. Being familiar with the
operating procedures insures that the instrument will provide trouble free service.
Getting Started
Before operating a Hardy HI 6500 series Weight Processor, check to make sure the
following procedures have been performed:
• Power and Load Point cables properly installed.
• Communication cables properly installed.
• Setting of instrument parameters is complete.
• Calibration performed.
Mode Button
• Press the Mode Button to switch between different weighing modes of:
• GROSS: Displays the GROSS weight of the system.
• NET: Displays the NET weight of the system. The NET weight displayed is the
GROSS weight minus the TARE value.
• COUNT: Counts the number of objects once the weight for one object is set.
The displayed mode on the instrument can also be changed by selecting DISPLAY MODE
on the Operations webpage and choosing Gross, Net or Count from the drop-down menu
or by sending the DISPLAY MODE command over communications.
Zero Operation
In GROSS mode, remove all weight from the scale and wait until the scale has settled.
