Introducti on
The SP600 Scale Printer System prints merchandising labels
used to identify price and to barcode a variety of
supermarket items. EAN or UPC barcode, description,
weight, unit price, total price, packed-on date, sell-by date,
and use-by date are some of the fields available on labels.
Expanded Text and Special Message fields enable the
SP600 to provide cooking instructions, ingredients and/or
special, promotional information.
The elevated display panel enables both customer and
operator to view numeric transaction data: Weight, Unit
Price and Total Price for the item.
When the system is disconnected from power, memory is
maintained by batteries for a minimum of 100 hours. The
batteries automatically charge when the system is connected
to AC power, whether the switch is on Reset or Operate.

FCC Note
Ver if y Cor re ct ness of
Weight & Price
SP600 Scale System
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference; in
which case, the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
Verification of information on labels should be made
routinely. Check the multiplication of price-perpound/price-per-kilogram times weight, and check the
indicated weight against printed weight. Weigh the same
package several times to verify consistency. Keep in mind
that some packages which weigh near the middle of the .005
kg (.01 lb.) increment will normally vary up or down by .005
kg (.01 lb.) Greater variation than .005 kg (.01 lb.) indicates
a need for adjustment of the system. In such cases, or
whenever necessary, contact your authorized Hobart Service
Representative.

The Power Cord receptacle is located under the SP600 base,
toward the back. The power cord is connected to 120/220 V.,
60/50Hz., single (1) phase electrical power. Check with your
Hobart Service Representative to verify that the scale is set
up correctly for your electrical power.

Be aware that connecting to a power source with a different
voltage or frequency than the scale is configured for may
cause IRREPARABLE damage to the scale.
In addition to the Power Cord, there is an RS-232 port at the
front of the scale. This port can be used with the Hobart
Disk Player/Recorder or the Hobart External Disk Drive.
