The masses required to test the EB Series Scales must meet the requirements of ASTM Class 4 or OIML Class F2. The mass values are listed in Table 1-1.
TABLE 1-1. CALIBRATION MASSES
Note: The EB Scales can be calibrated over a wide range, however, it is recommended that the calibration mass used is at or near the full capacity of the scale for maximum accuracy.
1.4 SERVICE STRATEGY
The repair method for the EB Series Scales is the direct substitution of major assemblies. The available repair parts are listed in Table 5-1.
The EB Series Scales contain 6 major replaceable assemblies: Top Housing, Membrane Switch, Load Cell Assembly with Frame, Lead Acid Rechargeable Battery, Display PC Board with LCD and the Main PC Board.
The Load Cell and LCD may also be ordered and replaced separately.

Scale increment
- Sets the displayed scale increment (also known as readability or graduation). Selectable setup values will be model dependent and are equivalent to within 30,000 to 3,000 scale divisions.
Backlight - Sets the activation mode of the backlight. The following settings are available: AU (Auto-on with items > 9d placed on the Platform or any button pressed; turns off after 5 seconds of inactivity), On, oFF.
Zero Display Range - Sets the range in which the Zero reading is maintained. The following settings are available: 0.5d, 1d, 2d, 4d (d= scale division).
Filtering - Sets the level at which the Stable indication turns on; the higher the setting, the faster the stabilization time. The following settings are available: 0, 1, 2, 3 (levels).
1.6 SCALE SETTINGS
The EB scale contains four user-selectable scale settings (Setup mode). These are as follows: Scale Increment, Backlight, Zero Tracking Range, and Filtering. A description of each setting is explained below.
1. To enter the setup mode, press and then release COUNT and M+ at the same time to
enter into the user-selectable scale settings.
2. In the Setup mode, press to step through available settings.
3. Press Enter to accept the displayed setting and proceed to the next parameter.
4. Press Exit to proceed to the next parameter without saving any changes.

CHAPTER 2 DIAGNOSIS
TABLE 2-1. SCALE WILL NOT TURN ON WITH AC ADAPTER
SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
Unit will not turn on with AC adapter supplied
Adapter defective
Membrane Switch defective
Check the AC adapter voltage output (Section 2.5). If voltage is low or nonexistent, replace the AC adapter. If OK, proceed.
Test the Membrane Switch (Section
2.6). Replace if necessary (Section 3.2).
If the scale fails to turn on with a new Membrane Switch, test the Main PC Board (Section 2.8). If defective, replace the Main PCB (Section 3.3.1). After repair, proceed with Performance Tests in Chapter 4.
2. DIAGNOSIS
This section contains information needed to properly evaluate the reported problem and diagnose its cause.
2.1 SCALE SETUP AND EXAMINATION
Set up the scale according to the Instruction manual. Allow the scale to stabilize to room temperature. Examine the scale for signs of corrosion or physical damage.
2.2 PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Power up the scale using the customer’s ac adapter. In the case where the scale will not power
up, check the ac adapter. Observe and record the error codes and software revision. Record all menu settings as received.
2.3 TROUBLESHOOTING TABLES
Troubleshooting tables 2-1 through 2-7 identify actual types of problems that could be encountered with the scale.
The troubleshooting tables refer to the EB Scales Interconnection Diagram, Figure 2-2, to assist in locating the problem.
EB Series Scales Series Service Manual 2-1 Ohaus Corporation www.ohaus.com
CHAPTER 2 DIAGNOSIS
TABLE 2-2. SCALE WILL NOT TURN ON USING BATTERY POWER
SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
Scale will not turn on using battery power.
Battery discharged or defective.
Wiring harness defective or battery clips connection broken.
Membrane Switch defective.
Main PC Board is defective.
Test the battery (Section 2.9). Replace if necessary (Section 3.6).
Open the scale (Section 3.1). Check voltage at battery contacts first. Check DC voltage at the battery connector on the Main PC Board. Voltage should read approximately 6 Volts DC minimum. If voltage is not present at the connector, disconnect the leads from the battery and make a continuity test between the connectors on the Harness to the connector on the Main PC Board. Resistance should be 0 ohms for the red lead and 0 ohms for the black lead. If an open condition exists, replace wiring and connector as necessary. If OK, proceed.
Test the Membrane Switch (Section
2.6). Replace if necessary (Section 3.2).
If the scale fails to turn on with a new Membrane Switch, test the Main PC
Board (Section 2.8). If defective, replace the Main PCB (Section 3.3.1).
After repair, proceed with Performance Tests in Chapter 4.
Ohaus Corporation www.ohaus.com 2-2 EB Series Scales Series Service Manual
CHAPTER 2 DIAGNOSIS
TABLE 2-3. SCALE DOES NOT RESPOND TO FRONT PANEL CONTROLS.
SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
Scale does not respond to front panel controls.
Membrane Switch defective
Test the Membrane Switch (Section
2.6). Replace if necessary (Section
3.2). If membrane switches are OK,
test the Main PC Board (Section 2.8). If defective, replace the Main PCB (Section 3.3.1).
After repair, proceed with Performance Tests in Chapter 4.
TABLE 2-4. NO DISPLAY OR PARTIAL DISPLAY.
SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
Display is not on or partial characters are displayed.
Display PC Board is defective or LCD may be defective.
NOTE: If the LCD shows signs of damage such as cracked, dim or partial characters, the LCD should be replaced.
The Display PC Board is replaced as a whole assembly. Check procedures in Tables 2-1, 2-2 and 2-3 first and verify that other problems do not exist.
Replace Display PC Board or LCD. See Repair Procedures 3.3.2 and
3.3.3. After repair, proceed with Performance
Tests in Chapter 4.
EB Series Scales Series Service Manual 2-3 Ohaus Corporation www.ohaus.com

TABLE 2-5. BALANCE READING INCORRECT OR UNSTABLE.
SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE
REMEDY
Balance reads incorrectly.
Balance reading unstable.
Needs calibration.
Load Cell is damaged.
Main PC Board defective.
Perform Service Calibration in Appendix B. If calibration fails, refer to Table 2-6.
