1. INTRODUCTION
1-1. Introduction
Thank you for your Purchase!
This manual describes the functions of your counting scale and how to get the most
out of it. Read this manual carefully before use.
Features
The HC-i counting scales have the following features:
The scales have the high internal resolution for a wider range of counting
applications.
HC-3Ki / 6Ki / 30Ki: 1/600,000
HC-15Ki: 1/750,000
There are the following ways to enter a unit weight (of the sample piece).
The way to weigh a fixed number of samples like 5 pieces, 10 pieces and so on.
The way to weigh the desired number of samples.
The way to store the desired unit weight directly using the 10-key pad.
The way to recall the stored unit weight from ID memory.
The way to send the desired unit weight from a personal computer.
Three UNIT WEIGHT BY LED's will navigate you to enter a unit weight easily.
ACAI (Automatic Counting Accuracy Improvement) supports counting by
recalculating the unit weight when a sample is added. Therefore it is possible to
reduce the counting error.
The scale can show information for piece count, weight, unit weight and
comparator result at the same time.
UP to 99 ID memories can store ID numbers, unit weight, tare weight and comparator
limits.
Comparator function:
Compare a count or weight
Comparator limits can be changed using the 10-key pad.
Comparator relay output is also available using an optional interface.
Accumulation function for counting.
Optional RS-232C interface to communicate with a personal computer and printer
expanding the counting application.
The optional SLA (sealed lead acid) battery is useful for portable operation.

A
1. Place the scale on a suitable weighing surface (see “Best Conditions For Weighing”
below) and turn the adjustable feet until the spirit level shows that the scale is level.
2. Plug in the AC adapter. The AC input
requirements could be l00, 120, 220,
230 or 240 Volts (50/60Hz) depending
on the area in the world so please
check that the adapter is correct. Earth

3. Press the ON/OFF key to turn the power ON.
All the display symbols are displayed.
Then the display turns off once, and zero will be shown with the ZERO mark.
4. Pressing the ON/OFF key again, and the power will switch OFF.
Auto-power off function
It is possible to have the power automatically switched OFF. If zero is
displayed for approximately 5 minutes. See “9-2. F-Functions” and set the
F-Function
5. Switch the power ON at least half an hour before use so that the scale can warm
up.

Earth terminal
Best Conditions For Weighing
The Scale must be level (check the spirit level on the scale).
Best operating temperature is between 20°C~25°C / 68°F~77°F at about 50%~60%
Relative Humidity. There shouldn’t be large temperature fluctuations.
The weighing room should be kept clean and dry.
The weighing table must be of a solid construction.
Corners of rooms are best as they are less prone to vibrations.
Don’t install the scale near heaters or air conditioners.
Don’t install the scale in direct sunshine.
Try to ensure a stable AC power supply when using an adapter.
Keep equipment containing magnets away from the scale.
Warm up the scale more than 30 minutes before use.
Ground the scale chassis for electrostatic discharge if the weighing conditions
warrant.
Calibration
Calibration of the HC-i is required when the scale is initially installed. Please see “8.
CALIBRATION” for more calibration information.

1-7. Last Unit Weight Used Feature
There are a number of ways to register a unit weight to count. The HC-i scale has a
feature to keep the last unit weight used in memory. This can be handy if you turn the
scale off and then want to return to the same unit weight, or you accidentally clear the
unit weight by pressing the RESET key.
When a unit weight is registered it is automatically placed in the ID “id-00” and
remains there until a new unit weight is entered. It can be recalled by the following:

8. CALIBRATION
T
T
Calibration of the scale is required when it is initially installed, if it is moved often, or
it is moved a substantial distance. Calibration is also necessary in regular scale
maintenance due to normal mechanical wear-and-tear, changes in seasonal
temperature, humidity, air pressure, etc.
The scale is equipped with gravity compensation, which allows it to be calibrated in
one location and then adjusted to match the gravity acceleration at another location
where it will be used. But don’t worry about this, as far as you calibrate the scale
using a calibration weight and use it at same place.
The scale must perform "warm up" for at least 30 minutes before starting
calibration.
8-1. Calibration Procedure Using a Weight
The scale should be powered on at least one-half hour to warm it up before starting
the calibration procedure.
1. Remove the calibration switch cover, and press the calibration (CAL) switch.
The scale shows “Cal” in the count display.

10-1. ACAI Automatic Counting Accuracy Improvement
COUN
The ACAITM (Automatic Counting Accuracy
Improvement) function recalculates the unit
8
weight as more pieces are added to improve
count accuracy.
When the scale calculates the unit weight from
sample pieces, the more sample pieces that are
used, the higher the accuracy.
ACAI Notes
You must do the ACAI procedure just after you set the unit weight. The samples
must be still on the weighing pan.
Do not take the samples off until the end of the ACAI procedure.
You don’t have to count out the pieces when you add, just stay within the ACAI
range.
Continue the ACAI procedure to reach the largest amount that you will be counting.

CAI
If you want the most precise counting results for every different batch of the same
items, use ACAI every time you start counting the next batch.
The ACAI function is initially set to manual operation when the unit weight is set
digitally by the keyboard, by ID memory or using computer via the serial interface.
This can be set to the automatic mode. The ACAI mode when the unit weight is
entered by ID or digital input is controlled by F-Function f-02-02. It is initially set at
“0”, ACAI manual operation mode. Set to “1” for automatic operation mode.

11. AWA FUNCTION
T
11-1. AWA Audible Weighing Assist
The AWA (Audible Weighing Assist) function will assist you to count a certain amount
of pieces by listening to the buzzer sound. The buzzer sound changes its interval as
the pieces getting close to, and stops at the target count.
There are three modes of operation. These can be selected by the key.
Ɖ Off mode: AWA function disabled.
Ɖ Target mode: To set the number of pieces that you will count.
Ɖ Interval mode: To set the number of pieces as an interval count. For example,
when 20 pieces is set as an interval count, the target count will be 20, 40, 60, …
pieces.
The buzzer starts to beep at the “target count – 9” pieces. As you add pieces and
the count is getting close to the target, the buzzer changes its interval of beeps,
shorter and shorter. Finally it stops at the target count.
The buzzer will beep again for “target count + 1, 2, 3 or 4” pieces.
The minimum number of pieces to set is 10.
The number of pieces is set to less than 50 in the interval mode, the buzzer will start
to beep at the “target count – 5” pieces.
If the number of pieces is not more than 9, the buzzer does not beep in either mode.
You cannot set the minus target or interval count. But the AWA function works for
negative pieces, too.
The AWA function should be disabled when the comparator buzzer is used.
11-2. To Enable/Disable AWA Function
Press the key, then the display will show one of the three modes operation to
set. The display moves among these setting modes cyclically by pressing the
key to select one of them.
Press the RESET key in the setting modes, the scale returns to normal without
changing the AWA function setting and the unit weight you are using.

13-6. Using UFC (Universal Flex Coms) Function
r
The UFC function allows you to print out as you format the printer (UFC format).
The scale can store the UFC format as text data. It will include parameters to
replace with the count data, weight data and so on.
The maximum number of text data is 384 characters.
Terminator for the “PF” command is "C
" or "CRLF".
R
Using “PF” command, the text data has to be sent to the scale from the computer in
advance. Then, connect the scale with the printer.
When the PRINT key is pressed or by auto-print mode A/B, the scale will send the
stored text data with the parameters replaced by the original data.

$WT Weight $CP Comparator result
$UW Unit weight in use $CM Comma
$TR Tare weight in use $SP Space

These parameters must be used in capital letters.
ASCII text string
Text string is described in single quote marks as ‘Data’.
The single quote itself is written as ’’(2 single quotes).
Example: Text ‘ABC’ is described as ‘’’ABC’’’.
The ASCII hexadecimal code
The ASCII hexadecimal codes are written in the form “#" + 2 hexadecimal digit s.
This will mainly be used to send control codes that can’t be described as a text string.
Example: #04 “EOT” of ASCII code
Repeat data
The control codes $SP, $CR and $LF can be used with “
+ maximum 2 digit
number”. That code will be repeated the number of times designated.
Example: $LF 9 Repeat “$LF” 9 times.
$SP 12 Put 12 “Spaces”.
Link mark “&”
If you will send more than 2 lines of data, attach “&” to the end of the first line. Then,
the scale considers the data to be continued.
51
“Space” or “,” will be used to separate these data. You can skip them, but you
”
cannot skip “,” after “PF”. You must start with “PF,”.
“
Data Format for the Scale Data
in examples below shows “Space” (20H).
[
Parameters for the scale data will be replaced by the format below when the scale
sends them out.
Data has a fixed number of digits including a sign and a decimal point. The
insignificant zeros are replaced by “Space (20H)” (except the ID number).
