3. PRECAUTIONS
To get the optimum performance from the balance and acquire accurate weight data, note the
following:
3-1 Before Use
Install the balance in an environment where the
temperature and humidity are not excessive. The best
operating temperature is about 20°C / 68°F at about
50% relative humidity.
Install the balance where it is not exposed to direct
sunlight and it is not affected by heaters or air
conditioners.
Install the balance where it is free of dust.
Install the balance away from equipment which
produces magnetic fields.
Install the balance in a stable place avoiding vibration
and shock. Corners of rooms on the first floor are best,
as they are less prone to vibration.
The weighing table should be solid and free from
vibration, drafts and as level as possible.
Level the balance by adjusting the leveling feet and
confirm it using the bubble spirit level.
Ensure a stable power source when using the AC
adapter.
Plug in the AC adapter and warm up the balance for at
least 30 minutes.
Calibrate the balance before use or after having
moved it to another location.
Caution
Do not install the balance where flammable or corrosive gas is present.
3-2 During Use
Discharge static electricity from the material to be
weighed (hereinafter referred to as the sample). When
a sample could have a static charge, the weight data is
influenced. Ground the balance and try the following:
Eliminate static electricity using the optional
AD-1683 DC static eliminator.
Try to keep the ambient humidity above 45%RH.
Use a metal shield case for a charged sample.
Wipe charged plastic samples with a moistened
cloth.
10
This balance uses a strong magnet as part of the
balance assembly, so please use caution when
weighing magnetic materials such as iron. If there is a
problem, use the underhook on the bottom of the
balance to suspend the material away from the
influence of the magnet.
Eliminate the temperature difference between a sample and the environment. When a sample
is warmer (cooler) than the ambient temperature, the sample will be lighter (heavier) than the
true weight. This error is due to a rising (falling) draft around the sample.
Make each weighing gently and quickly to avoid errors caused by the evaporation of moisture
from the sample or the absorption of moisture by the sample.
Do not drop things upon the weighing pan, or place a sample on the pan that is beyond the
balance weighing capacity. Place a sample in the center of the weighing pan.
Do not use a sharp instrument such as a pencil to press the keys. Use your finger only.
Press the RE-ZERO key before each weighing to eliminate possible errors.
Calibrate the balance periodically so as to eliminate possible errors.
Take into consideration the affect of air buoyancy on a sample when more accuracy is
required.
Keep the balance interior free of dust and foreign materials.
The breeze break (The FZ-i series (all) and FX-120i /200i /300i /500i (only)) is provided as a
standard accessory. An anti-static treatment has been applied to the breeze break components,
but they may be charged with static electricity when they are unpacked or when the humidity is
low. If the weight value is unstable even when there are no drafts or the balance has a problem
with repeatability, remove the breeze break. Or wipe the clear plates with a moistened cloth, use
the optional AD-1683 DC static eliminator or apply an anti-static spray.
3-3 After Use
Avoid mechanical shock to the balance.
Do not disassemble the balance. Contact the local A&D dealer if the balance needs service or
repair.
Do not use organic solvents to clean the balance. Clean the balance with a lint free cloth that
is moistened with warm water and a mild detergent.
The edge of the weighing pan is sharp. Use much care when cleaning the pan.
Avoid dust and water so that the balance weighs correctly. Protect the internal parts from liquid
spills and excessive dust.
3-4 Power Supply
When the AC adapter is connected, the balance is in the standby mode if the standby
indicator is on (refer to “4. DISPLAY SYMBOLS AND KEY OPERATION”). This is a normal
state and does not harm the balance. For accurate weighing, warm up the balance for at least
30 minutes before use.
11

appropriate unit.
Press the SAMPLE key to turn on or off the minimum
weighing value.
When the ON:OFF key is pressed with a container placed
on the weighing pan, the balance displays 0.00 g and
weighing is started,
16
6-2 Counting Mode (PCS)
This is the mode to determine the number of objects in a sample based on the standard sample unit
mass. The unit mass means the mass of one piece of the sample. The smaller the variables in each
sample unit mass are, the more accurate the counting will be. The balance is equipped with the
Automatic Counting Accuracy Improvement (ACAI) function to improve the counting accuracy.
Notes
For counting, use samples with a unit mass of at least ten or more times the minimum
weighing value of the balance,.
If the sample unit mass variable is too large, it may cause a counting error.
To improve the counting performance, use the ACAI function frequently or divide the samples
into several groups and count each group.
Selecting the counting mode
1 Press the MODE key to select 1pcs (counting mode).
Storing a sample unit mass
2 Press the SAMPLE key to enter the sample unit mass
storing mode.
Even in the storing mode, pressing the MODE key will
switch to the next mode.
3 To select the number of samples, press the SAMPLE key
several times. It may be set to 5, 10, 25, 50 or 100.
Note
A greater number of samples will yield more accurate
counting result.
4 Place a container on the weighing pan, if necessary.
Press the RE-ZERO key to cancel the weight (tare). The
number specified in step 3 appears.
e.g.: 25 0 is displayed if 25 is selected in step 3.
5 Place the number of samples specified on the pan. In this
example, 25 pieces.
6 Wait for the stabilization indicator to turn on. Press the
PRINT key to calculate and store the unit mass. The
balance displays 25
pcs
(counting mode) and is set to
count samples with this unit mass.
To improve the accuracy of the unit mass, go to step 8.
17
Notes
If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light and is not adequate to be used
as the unit mass, it displays lo . In that case, store the mass by some quantity. For example,
when the model with the minimum weighing value of 0.01 g is used and 10 pieces of samples
weigh 0.05 g. Store 100 pieces of samples as 10 and multiply the weighing result by 10.
If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light to aquire accurate weighing, it
displays an error requiring the addition of more samples to the specified number. For
example, 150-
PCS
appears to require 25 more samples. Add 25 samples and press the PRINT
key. When the unit mass is stored correctly, the balance proceeds to the counting mode.
For a more accurate counting operation, use samples with a unit mass of at least ten or more
times the minimum weighing value of the balance. For example, when a balance with a
mimimum weighing value of 0.01 g is used, the recommended sample unit mass is 0.1 g or
more.
The sample unit mass stored, even if the AC adapter is removed, is maintained in non-volatile
memory.
Counting operation
7 Place the samples to be counted on the pan.
While the stabilization indicator is on, pressing the PRINT
key will output the weight value (number of objects),
using the RS-232C serial interface.
Note
Peripheral equipment, that is sold separately , such as a
printer or a personal computer is required.
Counting mode using the ACAI function
The ACAI is a function that improves the accuracy of the unit
mass automatically by increasing the number of samples
and averaging the unit mass variable to minimize the
weighing error, as the counting process proceeds.
8 If a few more samples are added, the processing indicator turns on. To prevent an error, add
three or more. The processing indicator does not turn on if overloaded. Try to add the same
number of samples as displayed.
9 The balance re-calculates the unit mass while the processing indicator is blinking. Do not
touch the balance or samples on the pan until the processing indicator turns off.
10 Counting accuracy is improved when the processing indicator turns off.
Each time the above operation is performed, a more accurate unit mass will be obtained.
There is no definite upper limit of ACAI range for the number of samples exceeding 100. Try
to add the same number of samples as displayed.
11 Remove all the samples used in ACAI and proceed with the counting operation using the
improved unit mass.

6-3 Percent Mode (%)
This is the mode to display the weight value in percentage compared to a 100% reference mass and
is used for target weighing or checking the sample variable.
Selecting the percent mode
1 Press the MODE key to select % (percent mode).
Storing the 100% reference mass
2 Press the SAMPLE key to enter the 100% reference
mass storing mode.
Even in the storing mode, pressing the MODE key will
switch to the next mode.
3 Place a container on the weighing pan, if necessary.
Press the RE-ZERO key to cancel the weight (tare). The
balance displays 100 0 % .
4 Place the sample to be set as the 100% reference mass
on the pan or in the container.
5 Press the PRINT key to store the reference mass. The
balance displays 100.00 % . (The decimal point position
depends on the reference value.)
Notes
If the balance judges that the mass of the sample is too
light to be used as a reference, it displays lo . Do not use
the sample.
The reference mass stored, even if the AC adapter is
removed, is maintained in non-volatile memory
6 Remove the sample.
Reading the percentage
7 Place a sample to be compared to the reference mass on
the pan. The displayed percentage is based on the 100%
reference mass.
While the stabilization indicator is on, pressing the PRINT
key will output the weight value, using the RS-232C serial
interface.
Note
Peripheral equipment, that is sold separately , such as a
printer or a personal computer is required.

6-4 Statistical Calculation Mode
The statistical calculation mode statistically calculates the weight data, and displays or outputs the
results. To use the statistical calculation mode, set the "Application function (apf)" parameter of
“Application (ap fnc)” in the function table to “2”, as described below.
Statistical items available are number of data, sum, maximum, minimum, range
(maximum-minimum), average, standard deviation and coefficient of variation. What statistical items
to output can be selected from the three modes in the function table.
The wrong data input can be canceled by the key operation, if immediately after the input.
Turning the balance off will delete the statistical data.
The standard deviation and coefficient of variation are obtained by the equation below:
Standard deviation=
Standard deviation
Coefficient of variation (CV)=
Average
