Reflex HC Series

Note: Adjusting the level can be done with ease if all 4 level screws are at first grounded equally. Next, adjust the front and the back using the 2 front feet, and then adjust left and right using either of the 2 feet on the left and right.

1 Basic Operation

(1) Cut the supplied tape (2) and stick it onto the 4 points

on the case (3) (refer to the diagram below).

(2) Fix the vinyl cover (1) onto the double-sided tape (2),

ensuring that there are no creases. (3) Fit the pan. (4) Place a weight onto the pan which is close to the

weighing capacity to check that the pan and vinyl cover

are not touching. Accurate measurements cannot be

made if there is contact between the two items. If this is

the case, re-fit the vinyl cover.

Note: The vinyl cover (1) is folded up when it is in the packaging.

2.6 Graphic Display Menu :

2.6.1 Overview

The Reflex HC series balance has a bar graph located on the left side of the display. This graph can be conveniently used for liquid weighing and pass or failure judgment (comparator function) of the sample. The graphic display functions include the Full Scale mode, Target mode, Group mode, Level mode, and no graphic display mode. Note: Target, limit, upper, and lower values are set as numeric values only. Set the correct numeric value for the unit that will be used for weighing.

y In weighing mode, changing the displayed unit does

NOT change the target, limit, upper, or lower numeric values. For example, when the upper limit has been set at 10g, switching the unit from “g” to “kg” does not change the limit to 10kg. It will be 0.01kg.

y The decimal point is invisible in the value setting display.

Determine its position based on the resolution of the balance. For example, if the balance’s minimum display

Reflex HC Series

is 0.01g, 150g must be set by inputting “15000” in the display.

y Numeric values are memorized independently for each

graphic display mode.

y The graphic display mode can be selected without

setting numeric values.

2.6.2 Full Scale Mode

The relative amount of the load on the pan is displayed in the bar graph. This feature helps to prevent errors due to OL (overload) status. Use Menu Map item [11] to select the Full Scale mode. A bar displayed in the lower areas of the scale indicates that the load on the pan is small. A bar displayed in the upper areas of the scale indicates that the load on the pan is close to the weighing capacity.

2.6.3 Target Mode

Target mode is useful for filling applications or for quality check by weight. The amount in the unit that is used for weighing. The value is the numeric amount above or below the target value that is acceptable. This mode is useful for constant amount weighing of liquid or judgment of excess and shortage.

2.8.2 Zero Range

The "Zero Range" value is used in the Application Measurement function as a reference to identify whether the sample is loaded. For example, if the display is within the Zero Range, the balance determines that a sample is not loaded. If the display is more than five times the Zero Range it determines that a sample is loaded. Application Measurement functions which involves judgment of whether a sample is loaded or not work in accordance with the Zero Range setting. In Menu Map item [48], the "Zero Range" value is set using the number of counts displayed in kilogram-display. The setting range is 01 to 99 with 01 being the default value. Even when weighing will be done in another unit, Zero Range setting is made by only gram value. Note: When a Pretare value is set, the value to determine that there is "no load" becomes "- Pretare ± Zero Range" during mass display.

2.11 Communication Menu ( flashing)

2.11.1 Overview

This menu is used to set the specifications for communication between the balance and a personal computer or electronic printer. Note: This menu affects both the RS-232C and DATA I/O at the same time. For the instrument to be connected to the DATA I/O connector of an electronic printer set the

Reflex HC Series

specifications for communication of the balance to the default settings, which are

[89], [92], and [94].

2.11.2 Handshaking -

Handshaking determines whether the peripheral equipment can receive communication data from the balance. This function does not relay the status of the balance to the peripheral equipment. The balance is able to receive as long as there is space in the receiving buffer of the balance. This function operates once

is displayed, operation in other states is not guaranteed. When the balance output is retained by handshaking, the display of the balance is locked. Determine the specifications for handshaking. Menu Map item [73] is not performed. Menu Map item [74] is performed. After the balance receives X-OFF (13H), the balance output is retained. After the balance receives X-ON (11H), the balance output is initiated. Menu Map item [75] is performed. When DTR is OFF, the output from the balance is retained. When DTR is ON, the output from the balance is initiated. Menu Map item [76] handshaking is performed.
