INDICATOR MOUNTING
The indicator is easily attached to the Indicator Mounting Bracket by hooking the top over the plate and securing the bottom with two screws and nuts (size# 10 - 24 × 5/8" or M5 × 16mm).
POWER CONNECTION
Warning!
Always disconnect the indicator power cord before “jump starting” or fast charging a battery. Disconnect all indicator leads before welding on equipment. Failure to do so can cause surges which will damage the scale.
The power cable should be connected directly to a vehicle battery or regulated power supply. The scale end of the power cable is attached to the J901 connector located on the bottom panel of the scale.
Connect the RED wire from the power cable to +12VDC and the BLACK wire to GROUND. The indicator is fused internally at 4 amps.

!The alarm output is fused for a maximum drain of 10 amps. The remote alarm connection may also be used for motor control purposes when used with a relay.
REMOTE INPUT CONNECTION
If the remote input is to be used, connect one side of the normally open momentary switch or relay contact to the power cable BLUE wire, and the other side to the frame or other GROUND connection. If your power cable does not contain a blue wire and you desire to use this feature, contact your dealer for a special cable. A process control box is available for motor control and remote enter preset capability.

2. Mounting and connection |
LOAD CELL CONNECTION
The indicator operates with strain gage load cells. The system is normally supplied with a J-BOX cable going between the scale indicator and the load cell junction box. Extension Kits are available from your dealer in various lengths.
To connect the load cells, attach the junction box cable to the J902 connector on the bottom panel of the scale. Connect the load cell cables to the junction box as shown left.

3. Setup and Calibration Requirements |
3. Setup and Calibration Requirements
Warning!
This indicator was calibrated at the factory to weigh accurately with your system. Additional calibration is not necessary under normal conditions.
The Short Form Setup & Calibration procedure allows you to change the SETUP and CAL numbers of the indicator. You may want to perform this procedure if:
1.the indicator is being connected to different load cells, or
2.you want to adjust the calibration to match another scale system (chapter 4).
Before continuing, first write down the current SETUP and CAL numbers of your EZ indicator. These numbers are displayed during the Self Test.
TO RUN THE SELF TEST
1.With the indicator already ON, press 
to start the Self Test.
2.Press 
to "pause" the Self Test while numbers are displayed.
3.Press 
again to "resume".

4. Matching EZ scale to another scale |
4. Matching EZ scale to another scale
Sometimes two different scales are used to weigh the same load. When this is done, the weight measured by each scale may not be the same. This can be caused by one or both of the two scales being slightly out of calibration. This indicator has the ability to match any other scale, even if that scale is not calibrated.
To match your EZ scale (Scale A) to another scale (Scale B) you must determine the Calibration Multiplier. To do this, place a load on Scale A (feed wagon, etc...) and write down the weight displayed. Repeat several times to determine the average weight. Next, place the same load on Scale B and again write down the weight displayed.
Repeat several times to determine the average weight. Use the following formula to determine the Calibration Multiplier for the EZ’s "CAL" number:
! It is important to use an average of several weights before calibrating the scale.

You will need the number and type of load cells used in the new scale system. You will also need the current "SETUP" and "CAL" as described above. Once you have written down this information, contact your nearest Scale Service Center for new "SETUP" and "CAL" numbers.
Follow the instructions “To Change the Setup / Calibration Numbers” shown below.
Press and hold the 
key, then press the 
key, to enter Short Form Setup & Calibration.
The first message displayed is SETUP.
Next, the actual SETUP number is displayed.
! Press the 
key for additional help information during Setup and Calibration.
If the correct SETUP number is displayed, press the 
key to advance to the CAL number.
1.Press the 
key to cause the “flashing” digit to count upward.
2.Press the 
key to select which digit is flashing.
When the correct SETUP number is displayed, press the 
key to advance to the CAL number.
This displays the CAL message, followed by the CAL number.
! The CAL number is not a weight. It is a reference value the indicator uses to determine the weight. This number directly affects the accuracy of the scale system.
Change the CAL number using the same method described in Steps 1& 2. When the display shows
the correct number, press the 
key.
This causes the number to be stored permanently in the indicator and returns the indicator to the weighing mode.

5. Getting started |
5. Getting started
To operate the scale, first attach the scale's power cord to connector J901 and the loadcell cable to connector J902 on the bottom panel of the scale.
Press the 
key. A brief message is displayed (such as HELLO).
HELLO
The scale enters the GROSS mode.
A warm up period of ten to fifteen minutes provides the most accurate readings. If the scale is holding a load for a long period of time (ex. overnight), the weight displayed may vary because of zero shift created by changes in temperature. This does not affect the accuracy of the scale.
For example, if the system was loaded with 1000lbs, it might read 1200lbs the following day. The change in temperature "zero shifted" the ZERO/BALANCE from 0 to 200lbs. When unloading the scale, the display will count from 1200 to 200lbs for a total of 1000lbs.
After this warm up period, press and release 
. Then, within three seconds, press 
. The word ZERO is displayed to show completion of the ZERO/BALANCE step.
Now the scale is ready to weigh!

Press
and then within three seconds, press

The [Zero] key will "balance off" empty trailer, bin, or platform weight.
The message ZERO is displayed to show completion of the step and the scale is placed in the GROSS mode.
Pressing only will cause the message: TO
ZERO/BALANCE PRESS NET/ GROSS - THEN ZERO to be displayed.
If the supply power is below the low battery threshold (10.5 Volts), the message CANNOT balance -- LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE is displayed. The message LO BAT will be periodically shown on the display (approx. every five seconds) to alert the operator of the low battery condition.
Loss of power does not affect the Zero/Balance or Setup/Calibration values.

Hold Mode prevents the displayed weight from changing due to “zero shift” while moving the scale.
Press 
to "hold" the displayed weight and enter the Hold Mode.
! The scale is in Hold Mode if the word HOLD is flashing on the display and the flashing hold weight is only displayed for a brief time.
Press 
.
At this time the scale reactivates and adjusts the Zero/Balance to maintain the gross weight displayed. Small changes in weight can occur while moving the scale system to new locations for loading or unloading. This change is called "zero shift" and is due to several factors including terrain changes and mechanical stresses.
Press 
.
Cancelling the Hold Mode prevents the scale from adjusting the Zero/Balance and returns the system to the normal weighing mode.
Use this if weight is accidentally added while scale is still in Hold Mode.
