Increase the reference weight or proceed with step 7.
If [LOW.REF] is briey displayed in the display, then the weight on the load plate
is too low in order to achieve the desired accuracy.
2)
If [REF.ERR] is briey displayed in the display, then the applied weight is < 2 d
or the calculated sample weight is < 2 d/10. Proceed with step 5.
Positive check
weighing
Using the positive Check Weighing application, it is possible to determine an upper and lower limit value and check if the sample lies within
the specied tolerance limits.
In this case, the value for upper limit and lower limit must be a posi-
tive value.
The upper limit must be greater than the lower limit.
Place the sample on the load plate until it is within the specied tolerance limits (green).

Negative check
weighing
Using the negative Check Weighing application, it is possible to determine an upper and lower limit value and check if the sample removed
from the scale lies within the specied tolerance limits.
In this case, the value for upper limit and lower limit must be a nega-
tive value.
(The lower limit must be greater than the upper limit, i.e. lower limit = -10/upper limit = -15).
Place the sample on the load plate and press the
key.
Remove part of the sample until it is within the specied tolerance limits (green).
Check against
zero
Using the Check Against Zero application, it is possible to check the
sample as a dierence from the reference weight.
In this case the lower limit must be a negative value and the upper limit must be a positive value or zero.

All commands have a shared frame format (data input format). They start with the
characters ESC and end with the command end EOC (end of command). The end of
command may also be a combination of CR and LF. The scale ignores all entries after EOC
and before ESC.
Reading the displayed value:
ESC P EOC
Response (16 bytes):
V W W W W W W W W W E E E CR LF
V Algebraic sign Possible characters: "+", "–", " "
W Weight value Possible characters: "0"..."9", ". ", " "
E Unit Possible characters: "a"..."z", "A"..."Z", " "
CR Carriage return ASCII 0x0D
LF Line feed ASCII 0x0A
This format is also used for automatically generated telegrams, which are released
according to the menu settings: [INT.OUT], [AUT.OUT], [AUT.STA] (see above).
