ERROR Messages

DESCRIPTION

SOLUTION

*ERROR*

OUT OF LEVEL

Scale is tipped beyond the
maximum weighing angle.

Tilt mast until forks are level. If off left to
right then move truck to a level position.

1) Bad Load cell cable.

2) Bad Angle sensor.

3) Incorrect Angle settings

OUT OF RANGE

Indicates an overload condition
exists. The weight signal is far
beyond the scale capacity.

If there is weight on the scale it should
be removed immediately.
If no weight is on the scale check for:

1) Bad or damaged Load Cell Cable.

2) Bad internal wiring harness.
Check load cell signal. Consult Factory.

****OVERLOAD****

Indicates an overload condition.
The Gross weight as measured
from the zero value 105% of scale
capacity.

Weight in question should be
immediately removed from the scale.
If the total weight on the scale is known
to be less than capacity then check
scale calibration.

DR21-190B

Displayed on power-up. Indicates
Model and program number.
A number may have been
entered and not cleared.
Bad Power.

If indicator display does not continue
past this display then:

1) Press DEL then ENTER key

2) Check power supply.

3) Turn truck off and power up if OK
check truck ignition wires and
distributor cap.

EXCEEDS CAPACITY

Tried to enter a tare larger than
the Scales Capacity.

Tare value must be less than the
calibrated weighing capacity of the
scale.

INHIBIT

Remote Input 1 or 2 is closed and
Input function has been
configured to prevent all scale
weighing functions.

Consult factory.

ITEM LOCKED OUT

Displayed if functions have been
disabled (LOCKED OUT).

Function will not operate without
enabling function.

LOW BATTERY

Input power to the DR2100AN
has dropped below 11 VDC.

Correct low voltage condition.

This sets the allowed band of the ABSOLUTE weights that can be used to generate a

CALCULATED weight. Default is set at 10. The DR calculates a ROLLING AVERAGE of

consecutive ABSOLUTE weight observations. This number entered for this option is the

amount of variation from a mean weight that is allowed, both up or

down. Example, selecting 5 would mean the acceptable band is +/- 5

lbs. If any of these observations falls outside the selected range, the

calculation is thrown out and the DR continues seeking an allowed rolling average until it has

a sufficient number of consecutive observations within the selected band.

the Single-Point Calibration (code 9090) is the only calibration that will be required after installation.

Code 9090 – Single-Point Calibration

Single-Point Calibration should be used to make minor calibration adjustments.

Four-Point Linearity Calibration should be done if the load cell is being replaced.

Allow ample time for the indicator to warm up, generally 15-20 minutes.

1.1. Unload scale, ensure that they are not touching the floor and are level.

Press SCALE ZERO key.

1.2. Remove rear cover plate from the indicator.

1.3. Enable calibration by pressing the cal button, located in the upper right hand corner of
the main board. This button is usually white.

This procedure is to calibrate the DR2100AN indicator with a Clinometer for Out-of-Level weighing. The
scale base and DR2100AN indicator should be installed per the installation instructions prior to performing
this procedure. Out-of-Level calibration should be done after installation and before unit is placed into
service.

Warning: Once this procedure has been started it MUST be completed in all 4 directions. Before

starting, read through this procedure completely. Make sure you understand the
procedure and can tip the mast 3 degrees in all directions.

1.18. Apply power to the indicator. Allow 15-20 minutes for warm up.

1.19. Remove the cover from the back of the indicator.

Note: The clinometer is mounted on top of the scale base.

All references to the position of the truck while calibrating
are made while sitting in the driver seat.

1.21. Level truck so both FB and LR angles are within 0.0° +/- 0.2°.

Level is obtained by tilting forks for Front-to-Back
And moving to a flat location or tip truck for Left-to-Right.
Move truck, (level condition) until: FB = +0.0° (+/- 0.2°)

LR = +0.0° (+/- 0.2°)
