INTRODUCTION
This manual covers Installation, Operation and Troubleshooting for the Ohaus ANALYTI­CAL Plus Series of Electronic balances, Models AP110, AP210, AP310, AP250D, AP110E, AP210E, AP310E and AP250E. Suffixes after the basic model number are: D = Moveable FineRange Min, Class, etc.) on a serial number plate located on the side of the balance.

DESCRIPTION

The Ohaus ANALYTICAL Plus Series balances are high precision weighing instruments, designed to be versatile, accurate, easy to operate and will provide years of service with virtually no maintenance. The Analytical Plus series is constructed using a die-cast aluminum base finished with a durable corrosion resistant epoxy powder paint. The weighing area is protected from air currents by a draft shield. It contains solid-state precision electronics PC boards, and a seven and a half, 0.5 inch digit, Vacuum Fluorescent display. Each balance operates through a series of menus which enhances operation. A built in lockswitch prevents preset settings from being changed.

FEATURES

Analytical Plus balances contain four main display menus which enable you to calibrate and configure the balance for specific operating requirements. MENU When
pressed and released with MENU displayed, allows access to the calibration, user, setup and print menus.
ON
TARE
switch is
CALIBRATION Menu - Allows the balance to be calibrated by using either Auto, User or Test calibration methods. The test function is used to verify the last calibration.
USER Menu - Allows the balance to be set for environmental conditions. Reset, averaging level, stability range and auto-zero functions can be set.
SETUP Menu - Allows the balance to be customized for specific weighing functions. PRINT Menu - Allows the selection of parameters under which the balance will interface
to a computer or a printer.
Each of these menus contain selectable parameters which can be entered via the front panel switches. Storing of the parameters is accomplished by selecting at the completion of all selections in a particular menu. For a detailed description of each feature, refer to the individual menus in this manual.

UNPACKING

Your ANALYTICAL Plus balance was shipped with the following items:
Pan assembly (including pan, shield, ring and assembly instructions)
In-service cover
AC power cord
Spare fuse
Instruction manual
Warranty card
Remove the contents from the carton and carefully remove all packing material. It is recommended to save the carton and packing material for storing and/or transporting the balance. Verify that all of the components have been included and there has been no damage during shipment.

INSTALLATION

Environment

The balance should always be used in an environment which is free from excessive air currents, corrosives, vibration, and temperature or humidity extremes. These factors will affect displayed weight readings.
DO NOT install the balance:
next to open windows or doors causing drafts or rapid temperature changes.
near air conditioning or heat vents.
near vibrating, rotating or reciprocating equipment.
near magnetic fields or devices that may generate magnetic fields (i.e. motors, alterna-
tors, etc.)
on an unlevel work surface.
Install the balance in the location where it will be used before proceeding.

Weigh Below Hook

A weigh below hook is provided inside the bottom cover under the protective plate shown in the illustration.
To access the weigh below hook, care­fully turn the balance on it's side, loosen the screw which secures the cover plate, rotate the plate to clear the hole, then secure the plate in that position. Return the balance to an upright position. Mount the balance on a stable, level elevated platform and install a hook.

INSTALLATION

Leveling the Balance

The balance is equipped with a level indicator on the floor of the weighing chamber and two adjustable leveling feet at the rear. Adjust the leveling feet until the bubble appears in the center circle of the level indicator.

Installing the Pan Assembly

1. Place the shield onto the keyed bushing and press it down into place. The bent tabs must be facing upward and the shield should be flat against the chamber floor.

2. Place the ring over the shield. The lip on the bottom of the ring should fit against the shield to keep it from moving.
3. Insert the pan in the load receiver hole, matching the key on the pan shaft with the slot in the hole. Gently press the pan down into place.

In-Service Cover

Place the cover snugly over the display unit.

INSTALLATION

RS232 INTERFACE

ANALYTICAL Plus balances are equipped with a bi-directional RS232 compatible interface for communication with printers and computers. When the balance is connected directly to a printer, displayed data can be output at any time by simply pressing PRINT, or by using the Auto Print feature.
Connecting the balance to a computer enables you to operate the balance from the computer, as well as receive data such as displayed weight, weighing mode, stability status, etc.
The following sections describe the hardware and software provided with the balance.

Hardware

On the rear of the balance, a 9-pin subminia­ture “D” connector is provided for interfacing to other devices. The pinout and pin connections are shown in the adjacent illustration.
The balance will not output any data unless pin 5 (CTS) is held in an ON state (+3 to +15 V dc). Interfaces not utilizing the CTS handshake may tie pin 5 to pin 6 to defeat it.

Output Formats

Data output can be initiated in one of three ways: 1) By pressing PRINT; 2) Using the Auto Print feature; 3) Sending a print command (P) from a computer.
The output format is illustrated in the RS232 command table which follows.

RS232 Commands

All communication is accomplished using stan­dard ASCII format. Only the characters shown in the following table are acknowledged by the balance. Any other commands, control char­acters or spaces are ignored. Commands sent to the balance must be terminated with a carriage return (CR) or carriage return-line line feed (CRLF). For example, a tare command should appear as shown in the adjacent dia­gram. Data output by the balance is always terminated with a carriage return - line feed (CRLF).

Connecting Power

1. Before connecting the power cord, check that the line voltage switch located at the rear of the balance is set correctly for your location. If not, use a small screwdriver to set the switch correctly.
2. Make sure the doors to the weighing cham­ber are closed.
2. Connect the power cord receptacle to the plug on the rear of the balance.
3. Plug the power cord only into a convenient grounded AC outlet. The balance signals one long beep to indicate power has been applied.

Spare Fuse

A spare fuse is provided in the fuse holder as shown in the diagram. All models use a T 160 mA/250 V fuse.

Stabilization

Before initally using the balance, allow time for it to adjust to its new environment. The balance only requires to be plugged in to warm up. Recommended warm up period is twenty (20) minutes. The balance is powered whenever it is plugged into a power source.

Auto Range (AP250D and E Only)

Modes AP250D and E offer both a fine range (0.01 mg readability from 0 to 52 g) and a coarse range (0.1 mg over 52 g). When first turned on, the balance is in the fine range. It remains in this range until the weight on the pan exceeds 52 g. When weight on the pan is greater than 52 g, the balance switches to the coarse range.
If weight on the pan falls below 52 g, it automatically switches back to the fine range.

Percent Weighing

OPERATION
Percent Weighing is Percent Function is selected under the Setup menu. Refer to page 38. Percent weighing permits you to place a reference load on the balance, then view other loads as a percent­age of the reference. The load you place on the platform as a reference may be displayed as any percentage you select from 5% to 100%
enabled only
when the

A 10g reference load is set for 20%:

(in 1% increments). One hundred percent does not necessarily have to represent the reference load. Subsequent loads, displayed as a percentage of the reference are limited only by the capacity of the balance. The default setting is Reference 100%.

Parts Counting

Parts Counting is menu. Refer to page 38. In the parts counting mode, the balance displays the quantity of parts you place on the pan. Since the balance determines the quantity based on the average weight of a single part, all parts must be reasonably uniform in weight. The accuracy of parts counting results is determined by the error level entered in PC Err of the Setup Options submenu. Refer to page 43. The default setting for PC Err is off.
