• Gently place the weighing platform on the mounting posts on the top of
the base of the balance. The base’s posts should fit easily into the holes
on the bottom of the platform and the platform should be flat and level.
Note: Do not force the platform as this can damage the balance.
• Connect the AC adapter to the receptacle at the rear of the balance.
• Connect the AC adapter to an appropriate power outlet.
Note: You can also operate this unit using batteries instead of the supplied
AC adapter. Batteries are not included with the unit.
4.0 Key Functions
The following figure shows the front panel with six keys. Each key function is
explained here.
On/Off Turns the balance on or off or returns balance to normal weighing
mode.
Count Places the balance in piece count mode.
Cal (stands for Calibrate) Enters calibration mode.
Tare Used to tare off, up to 100% of balance capacity, an empty
container and to reset the balance to zero. Use of tare with a
weight or container reduces the scale’s capacity by the tare value
stored. Also works like Enter in some modes.
Mode Toggles the backlight on or off. To extend battery life, turn
backlight off. Also toggles between options in calibration mode.
Units Allows you to scroll through and select from the available units (g,
oz, ozt, dwt, lb) as well as count (ct) and percentage (%).
