Section 1. Introduction
GSE 460 Series programmable indicators come standard with a number of
features that make them the most versatile and powerful systems in their price
class. Even in the most demanding industrial environments, the 460 Series
indicators will provide years of quality weighing service.
This User’s Guide contains basic operating information. Subjects covered include
indicator installation, calibration, counting mode, accumulation mode, application
file operation, the clock feature, legal-for-trade issues, and troubleshooting.
Subjects such as the Setup Mode and the macro programming language are
beyond the scope of a User’s Guide. For more detailed operating instructions, a
460 Series Technical Reference Manual is available. Contact your GSE
Distributor for more information.

Controller Descriptions
All 460 Series models come with a swivel bracket for positioning on a tabletop or
mounting to any fixed surface.
GSE offers many options to enhance the 460 Series of indicators. The number of
options that can be used varies among the different models. See the
Specifications section on page 3 for enclosure dimensions.
Connections from the load cell to the single channel input require
gaining access to J1 inside the sealed enclosure. In addition,
peripherals and options can be interfaced to 460 Series instruments by
means of connections within the enclosure. However, physically
accessing the unit may void the warranty. Refer to the Technical
Reference Manual or contact your local GSE distributor.
Calibrating the unit requires entering the Setup Mode and selecting the
calibration parameters specific to your application needs. Contact your
local GSE distributor for calibration service.
Stainless Steel Enclosure
The stainless steel versions are also available in panel-mount.
460 Series instruments are supplied in a NEMA 4X (IP66) enclosure and may be
used in a wash-down environment. Care must be taken to ensure that the AC
power socket outlet is properly protected.
The keypad is made of silicon rubber. It may be cleaned periodically with a soft
damp non-abrasive cloth. The display window is made from a polycarbonate
material, which may scratch due to aggressive cleaning. Care must be taken to
avoid such damage.
Features
GSE 460 Series instruments share the following standard features:
• Sealed elastomer keypad for protection against harsh environments
• AC power
• DC power
• Front panel calibration and linearization execution
• Capacitive sealed keypad

Display
Display types differ according to model. The table below describes the display(s)
offered for each controller.
Model Display

6 digit, Vacuum Florescent display (VFD) 0.75” (19mm) height with
2X5 matrix
The vacuum fluorescent (VF) display is divided into two sections: a large, six-digit
numeric area to the left, and a smaller, two-line-by-fivecharacter dot matrix area
to the right.
The large digit area displays numeric data, such as gross weight, net weight or
tare weight.
The dot matrix area has several purposes:
• The first two characters on the upper line show the weighing units of the
displayed data.
• The last three characters on the upper line show a CENTER ZERO (-- >0<
--) condition at times.
