3. Safety rules
• All repairs and necessary regulations can be made by authorised
personnel only.
• To avoid fire risk use a feeder of an appropriate type (if feeder is
supplied with the scale) and supply voltage has to be compatible with
specified technical data.
It is necessary to follow safety rules of work with the
scale shown below. Obeying those rules is the
condition to avoid electrical shock or damage of the
scale or connected peripheral devices.
• Do not use the scale when its cover is opened.
• Do not use the scale in explosive conditions.
• Do not use the scale in high humidity environment.
• If the scale seems not to operate properly, switch it off and do not use
until checked by authorised service.
According to current acts of low about protection of
natural environment, wasted scales should not be put
into waste containers together with ordinary waste.
• Wasted scale after operation period can be delivered to units authorized
for gathering wasted electronic devices or to the place where it was
bought.

7. Preparing working environment
9
Location for the scale should be chosen with care in order to limit influence of
the factors that can interrupt working scale. This location has to maintain proper
temperature for working scale and necessary space for its operating. The scale
should stay on stable table made of material that does not influence magnetically
on the scale.
Rapid air blows, vibrations, dust, rapid temperature changes or air humidity over
90% are not allowed in scale surrounding. The scale should be far from heat
sources and devices emitting strong electromagnetic or magnetic fields.

Scale should be transported in the way, that there is no risk of
accidental pressing or overweighing a pan.
If the scale was taken from a lower temperature surrounding to a room
with higher temperature, e.g. in winter, moisture can liquefy on the
scale casing. Do not connect power supply to the scale, because this
can cause damage or improper work of the scale. In this case leave the
scale for at least 4 hours unplugged for acclimatization.
USER MANUAL

9. General operation principles
1. In order to confirm correctness of the scale during its operation, before
starting and after finishing every valid measurement series it is recommended
to check weighing accuracy putting calibration weight or other object of
exactly known mass on the scale. In the case when allowable measurement
error of the scale is exceeded, it is recommended to perform calibration with
external weight or contact authorised service centre.
2. Weighed mass should be placed in the middle of the pan.
3. The scale allows taring in the whole measuring range. To tare the scale press
→T←
key. Taring does not extend measuring range, but only subtracts tare
value from mass value of a sample placed on the pan. To make the control of a
load on the pan easier and to avoid exceeding measurement range, the scales
have load indicator calibrated 0÷100%.
4. Weighing result should be read when the indicator
lights, which signalises
result stabilisation.
5. When the scale is not used but it is necessary for it to be ready to work, it can
be switched off by pressing I/
key. The scale reading system is then switched
off and scale goes to standby mode signalled with OFF indicator. Switching
the scale on is preformed by pressing I/

that load can be placed on scale pan.
7. Scale mechanism is a precise device sensitive to overweight, mechanical
shocks and strokes.
Do not overload the scale more than 20% of maximum capacity.
Do not press the pan with a hand.
For transportation pan, pan support and pan ring should be packed
separately.

10. Operation rules during work with accumulators (batteries)
1. Scale can be powered from ~230V supply through feeder attached with scale.
Moreover accumulators, which are placed in container inside the scale, can be
used for powering. Ordinary batteries can be used as well.
2. In order to make accumulators (batteries) discharging time longer, automatic
switching off display backlight and next the whole scale is possible during
breaks in weighing. Configuration of these mechanisms is done using
b_LIGHT and Auto OFF functions.
3. Charging accumulators is performed automatically after connecting feeder to
the scale, also during weighing. Accumulator power level can be read using
bAttErY function (bat VoL option).
When using batteries in place of accumulators, charging during
work with feeder have to be switched off. bAttErY function is used
for this purpose (bAt OFF option), which is described in further
part of manual. Charging batteries can cause their breaking and

AXIS offers computer programs to cooperate with scales, available on
www.axis.pl website:
- Communication – free program for sending simple commands to the scale and
receiving weighing results,
- ProCell – program for cooperation with Microsoft EXCEL and other
Microsoft Windows applications (demo version).
Detailed information for programmers (LONG protocol):
When cooperating with a computer, the scale sends data as follows:
When cooperating with a computer, the
scale sends weighing result after
initialising signal from a computer or after
pressing
key on the scale.
For cooperation with the scale a computer

When proceeding with recipe,
successive ingredients (A, B, C,

from zero indication, which is
obtained after scale taring.
If several ingredients are weighed,

15.8. Label choosing function (LAbEL)
This function is used in scale with ELTRON (Port-1) data protocol. This protocol
enables label printout with actual scale indication and chosen data from PrInt
special function (variable data), for example date and time. Other data, for
example company address, product name, barcode can appear on label as a
constant text. Label patterns with number (4 digit) used by user should be saved
in scale memory according to printer manual. Label pattern choice is made by
inscribing label number using LAbEL function.

15.24. Function of comparing with preset threshold values (trESh)
This function compares weighing result with two reference values: lower and
upper threshold. The balance signalises comparison result with MIN, OK and
MAX indicators and sound signal generated when threshold values are exceeded.
If comparison result is:
- smaller than lower threshold – the balance displays MIN,
- between threshold values - the balance displays OK with the sound signal
when exceeding the threshold,
- greater than upper threshold - the balance displays MAX with the sound signal
when exceeding the threshold,
If the balance is equipped with THRESHOLDS control connection, the
comparison result may be used to control:
- optical signalling devices (SIGNAL mode),
- batching devices (IMPULS mode).
In standard configuration the scale is set up to cooperate with optical signalling
device.
On the outputs P1 and P2 the short-circuit states appear, which depend on
comparison results of balance indications with threshold values.
THRESHOLDS outputs states chart (with increasing balance load) for both
modes:
SIGNAL mode: IMPULS mode:
In IMPULS mode on outputs P1 (threshold I) and P2 (threshold II) short-circuit
impulses appear for about 0,5s. On output P3 (zero) short-circuit state appears
with the zero threshold indication.

Important notes:
1. After switching the balance on, both thresholds are set as maximum values.
2. When selecting upper threshold value, pay attention that its value is not lower
than the lower threshold value.
3. Selecting lower and upper threshold value is also possible by sending proper
commands from computer (for more information look into scale manual)

take the pan off (lift it up). Clean dirt and then put the pan on.
3. In case of improper operation caused by a short-lasting lack of power supply,
switch the scale off by unplugging it from the mains, and then after several
seconds switch it on.
4. Every repairs performed by unauthorized persons are forbidden
