The major function of electronic scales from series ETS is to determine the cost of the goods in
correlation with their weight and price followed by printing the result on a label with barcode. The price can
be determined by two ways: manually by using the digital keyboard or by using previously programmed
commodity code or key for easy access.
The scales allow storing information about the commodities in the form of names, price per unit, article
code, expiration date and other text information. The build in memory allows storing more than 8,500 different
articles.

3. Main Functions

 Weight determination of the weighed products
 Input of the price per 1 kg
 Storing data for price, Tare, name, expiration date and est. of more than 8,500 articles
 Displaying the information for the weight, price per unit and total value of the product on two widow

displays one for the user and one for the customer

 Label printing of the chosen articles and their weight and price
 Redirecting the information to PC, cash registers
 Reports for the weighed goods
 Sound signals

Before installing the scale is necessary to inspect the device for any mechanical damages that may have
occurred during the transportation. After the inspection is done the scale is ready for installation. Place the scale
onto horizontal surface. Level the scale by using the 4 adjustable legs at the bottom of the scale. Turn the legs
clockwise or counterclockwise so the bubble of the leveling gauge is inside the indicated circle which is located
under the metal platter in the left side of the scale.

After the scale is properly placed for work, normal working conditions should be provided:
Operating Temperature - 10 °C to +40 °C
Air Humidity 20 % to 80 %
Power Source 220V
Power Source Frequency 50 Hz

DO NOT plug the AC adapter in any power source different from the 220V/50Hz!!!

Avoid overload of the scale with weights greater that the specified Maximal Load!
