3.1.1. Pre-installation checklist
The following points should be checked and discussed with the Area Sales Manager
and/or customer, if necessary, before the technician goes to the site and installs the
equipment.
Check the customer's application to make certain it is within the capabilities and
design parameters of the equipment.
If the installation process might disrupt normal business operations, tell the
customer and ask that they make ample arrangements.
Be sure that the equipment operator(s) are available for training.

Section 3: Installa tion
3.1.3. Finding the best location
Position the equipment with these points in mind:
• Intense direct sunlight can harm the display.
• Do not locate near magnetic material or equipment/Indicators which use magnets
in their design.
• Avoid areas which have extreme variations in room temperatures. Temperatures
outside the Indicator’s specifications will affect the weighing accuracy of this product.
• Do not open the Indicator if there is any evidence of damage to it or any other
scale component or supporting structure.
• When selecting the right location for the Indicator and the scale, keep the
components completely away from all high water, such as low-lying areas that
may flood, and away from any drain pipes.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTICE
• All load cells, load cell cables and interconnecting cables used to connect all
scale components shall be located
away
carrying conductors.
• This includes digital weight indicators, junction boxes, sectional
controllers, and power supplies.
• This includes any peripheral devices, such as printers, remote
displays, relay boxes, remote terminals, card readers, and auxiliary
data entry devices.
• Also included is the scale components themselves, such as 120 volt
AC, 240 volt AC, 480 volt AC and electric supply of higher voltage
wiring runs and stations, AC power transformers, overhead or buried
cables, electric distribution panels, electric motors, florescent and
high intensity lighting which utilize ballast assemblies, electric heating
equipment, traffic light wiring and power, and relay boxes.
• All scale components, including digital weight indicators and peripheral
devices are not designed to operate on internal combustion engine
driven electric generators and other similar equipment.
from all single and multiple phase high energy circuits and electric current
Electric arc welding can severely damage scale components such as

Section 3: Installa tion
3.2. Powering up the scale
The scale performs a warm-up cycle. During the warm-up cycle . . .
• The display scrolls from 1 to 9 in sequential order using all available digits
while toggling between the available annunciators.
• The program number will display briefly (PXXXXX), followed by the software revision.
• Then “” scrolls across the display.
• “-----” for a few seconds
• “”, Scale is ready to weigh
• After approximately 30 seconds with no weight on the scale it will go into a
sleep mode. The display will continuously scroll “”.
Simply applying any weight to the platform will wake-up the scale.
3.3. Computer interface
3.3.1 Connections:
The USB Type A port is a hard-wired connection inside the scale. Connect the
other end of the USB cable to an unused USB port on your computer. Use the
configuration procedure supplied with your freight provider’s computer software.
3.3.2 Computer interface driver
The USB port will only function with a computer running Windows 2000 or
higher operating system. When the scale’s USB cable is connected to the
computer’s USB port, the computer will prompt “a device has been found” and
it will automatically install the driver. Check with your software manufacturer or
freight provider for compatible computer software.
3.3.3 USB data output
The Ultegra Junior uses the HID-10 USB protocol.
3.4. Weighing
With the platform empty, press the [ZERO] key.
The display will indicate zero.
Note:
The “C” to the left of the “0.00” indicates true center of zero.

Each program step has more than one choice. The [UNITS] key will toggle the
displayed value, the [ZERO] key will accept the current displayed value, and move
to the next step.
4.3. Programming Steps
4.3.1. First program step: Zero range -- The display will show USA or CAn.
• The zero range is set at 2% or 1.4 lbs when programmed for Canadian use
• The zero range is set at 100% or 70 lbs when programmed for USA use
Press the [UNITS] key to change, [ZERO] key to accept.
4.3.2. Second program step: Active Units -- Diamonds on the bottom of the display
will point to the currently enabled units. Selections available are lb only, kg only, or

4.3.3. Third program step: Weighing Mode: Display will show rAngE or 2000d.
2000d will set the weighing mode to 70 lb capacity by 0.05 lb / 31.75 kg by 0.01 kg.
rAngE will set the weighing mode to automatically change its increment size as
follows:
Scale will weigh from 0 lb to 28 lb by 0.02 lb increment (0-14 kg by 0.01 kg)
Scale will weigh from 28 lb to 70 lb by 0.05 lb increment (14 kg to 31.75 kg by 0.02
kg)
Press the [UNITS] key to change, [ZERO] key to accept.
4.3.4. Fourth program step: Output mode: The display will show COnt or POLLEd.
COnt will establish a continuous output stream to the computer.
POLLEd will establish a demand output to the computer.
Press the [UNITS] key to change, [ZERO] key to accept.
NOTE: The following steps will calibrate the scale. If you do not wish to alter the
calibration, press the CAL button to leave the programming area.
4.3.5 . Fifth program step:: Zero reference: The display will show -----. Ensure the
scale is empty of any objects and press the [ZERO] key. A “0: digital count will now
be displayed. If necessary, the [ZERO] key can be pressed repeatedly to establish
clean zero reference.
4.3.6 . Sixth program step: Test Weights: Apply a known test weight value that
matches one of the following choices. When the test weight(s) are applied, the
displayed digital counts value will increase in relation to the applied load. Press the
[UNITS] key repeatedly until the correct Test weight value is displayed,
5,10,15,20,30,40,50,60,70 lbs; 10,20,30, KG . You can continue to press the
[UNITS] key to cycle through the choices again if required.
