• The CBW series of scales provide an accurate, fast and versatile
series of general purpose weighing scales with counting, %
weighing and check-weighing functions.
• There are 2 series of scales - CBW scales which use kilograms
as the default unit and the CBWa range of scales have
changeable units from pounds to kilograms. The scales in these
series share the same functions except the CBWa series have
the ability to change the weighing units.
• There are 6 models in each series with capacities up to 45 kg /
100 lb.
• These all have stainless steel weighing platforms on an ABS base
assembly.
• All scales have sealed keypads with colour coded membrane
switches and the displays are large easy to read liquid crystal
type displays (LCD). The LCD’s are supplied with a backlight.
•The scales include automatic zero tracking, audible alarm for pre-
set weights, automatic tare, an accumulation facility that allows
the count to be stored and recalled as an accumulated total and
bi-directional RS-232 interface for communicating with a PC or
printer.

the level and the scale is supported by all four feet.
• Attach the power supply cable to the connector on the bottom of
the scale. Plug in the power supply module. The power switch is
located on the base on the right side of the scale.
• The scale will first display the model number (CBW 30- where 30
denotes the capacity of the scale in kg), followed by the revision
numbers (1.2-2.03 where 1.2 is the current hardware revision
number of the main circuit board and 2.03 is the current software
revision number). A self-test is followed next. At the end of the
self-test it will display “ZERO”, if the zero condition has been
achieved. A stable symbol and “GROSS” indicators are also
displayed.
4.0 KEY DESCRIPTIONS
KEYS PRIMARY FUNCTION SECONDARY FUNCTION
[Zero]
[Tare]
Sets the zero point for all
subsequent weighing. The
display shows zero.
It tares the scale and stores the
current weight in memory as a
tare value, subtracts the tare
value from the weight and
shows the results. This is the
net weight.
or [Enter] key when
setting parameters or other
functions.
A secondary function is
available to increment the active
digit when setting a value for
parameters or other functions.
It sets the limits for check
weighing and allows setting of
either the low limit or the high
limit or both.
It enters the percent weighing
function. Allows the weight,
unit weight, and count to be
seen when parts counting.
This is used to select the
function of the scale. When
the scale is weighing, it will
select parts counting. When it
is not in the weighing mode it
will return the user to weighing.
It is used to print the results to
a PC or printer using the RS232 interface. It also adds the
value to the accumulation
memory if the accumulation
function is not automatic.
It is used to change the
weighing units of the display
from kilograms to grams and
back to kilograms for CBW
series.
For CBWa scales this key will
select kilograms, grams,
Pounds and Pounds/ounces
for the weighing unit, if
enabled. This should only be
done in gross weighing or at
zero.
A secondary function
A secondary function is
None.
is available to move the active digit
to the right when setting values for
parameters or other functions.
available to move the active digit to
the left when setting values for
parameters or other functions.
A secondary function [C] is
available to act as a clear key
when setting values for parameters
or other functions.
A secondary function [ESC] is
used to return to normal operation
when the scale is in a parameter
setting mode.
