3. PRECAUTIONS
To get the optimum performance from the balance and acquire accurate weight data, note the
following:
3-1 Before Use
The meaning of IP65 is "No ingress of dust. Projected
against water jets".
If a powerful water jet is used or the balance is immersed
in water, the ingress of water may cause damage to the
balance.
Confirm that "the plug is inserted firmly into the AC adapter
jack" and "the RS-232C interface connector is covered
using the terminal cover or the waterproof RS-232C cable
(AX-KO2737-500) is connected", when using as a dust and
waterproof balance.
When the balance is used without the terminal cover on
the RS-232C interface connector or a standard RS-232C
cable is used, the balance does not comply with IP65.
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.
8
3-2 During Use
The FX-i WP series balance has a casing with high sealing
performance due to its dust-tight and waterproof design.
Therefore, a very subtle change in the atmospheric
pressure in the installation site, for example, generated by
opening or closing the door, affects the weighing and may
yield an unstable weight value. Wait for the atmospheric
pressure to stabilize before weighing.
If the residue of a powdery or liquid material is left on the
waterproof diaphragm or the pan boss, it may cause
weighing errors. Clean them before weighing.
If the waterproof diaphragm is deformed due to
overloading, it may cause weighing errors. Remove the
load and wait for the waterproof diaphragm to restore to
the original shape before continuing with weighing.
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.
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.
9
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.
Prevent foreign materials, such as powder, liquid and metal, from invading the area around the
weighing pan.
The breeze break (FX-120i WP /200i WP /300i WP only) is provided as an 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
Do not allow the balance to be immersed in water. Even though the balance complies with IP
code, the balance will not withstand being completely immersed in water.
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.
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 “3-5 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.

5-2 Counting Mode (PCS)
This is the mode to determine the number of objects in a sample based on the standard sample unit
mass. Unit mass means the mass of one sample. The smaller the variables in each sample unit
mass are, the more accurate the counting will be. The FX-i WP series balance is equipped with the
Automatic Counting Accuracy Improvement (ACAI) function to improve the counting accuracy.
Note
If the sample unit mass variable is too large, it may cause a counting error.
Selecting the counting 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 come on. Press the
PRINT key to calculate and store the unit mass. The
balance displays 25
count samples with this unit mass. (The sample unit mass
stored, even if the AC adapter is removed, is maintained
in non-volatile memory.)
To improve the accuracy of the unit mass, proceed to
step 8.
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.

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.

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. The reference mass
stored, even if the AC adapter is removed, is maintained
in non-volatile memory.)
Note
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.
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.

5-4 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)=
where Xi is the i-th weight data,
N is number of data.
