INTRODUCTION
This manual covers installation, operation and troubleshooting for the Ohaus Preci­sion Plus balances, Models TP200, TP400, TP400D, TP600, TP2K, TP4K and TP4KD. To insure proper operation of the balance, please read this manual completely.
DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION
The Ohaus Precision Plus series balances are precision weighing instruments, designed to provide years of service with virtually no maintenance. The Precision Plus series is constructed using a die-cast aluminum base finished with a durable epoxy powder paint which is resistant to commonly used acids, contains a one piece solid­state precision electronics PC board, a seven digit LCD display which is 0.6 inches in height. All Precision Plus series balances are factory set to measure in grams. Each balance operates through a series of menus which enable precise calibration and linearity along with various other parameters which enhances operation. A built in lock switch prevents preset settings from being changed. To prevent measurements from being affected by air currents, a Draft Shield is mounted to the balance and is available for ModelsTP200 and TP400D. Power is supplied through an AC adapter which is available in five voltages for world-wide usage. Accessories include: an RS232 interface kit which allows printing of results through an external computer, an RS232 Interface cable with a print switch, weigh below hook, security device and calibration weights.

EnvironmentEnvironment
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 equipment that generates magnetic fields.
• On an unlevel work surface.
In-Service CoverIn-Service Cover

The cover is placed on the balance before shipment. If desired, the adhesive pads provided may be used to secure the cover to the balance to avoid possible movement.
Peel the backing off of one side of each adhesive pad and press the pads onto the top of the balance as shown in the dia­gram.

To install the draft shield:
1. Position the draft shield on top of the balance as shown. Make sure the rib at the front of the draft shield base butts up against the raised lip of the display panel.
2. The snap clamp should be oriented so that the double clip is toward the front of the balance.
Insert the double clip of the snap clamp into the open­ing in the draft shield base, and clip the draft shield base to the balance. Press the rear clip of the snap clamp into place.

In the parts counting mode, the balance calculates and 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 menu.
To perform parts counting, use the follow­ing procedure:

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 pan as a reference may be displayed as any per­centage you select from 5% to 100% (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.

CALIBRATION MENUCALIBRATION MENU
CALIBRATION MENU
CALIBRATION MENUCALIBRATION MENU
Precision Plus balances can be calibrated in two ways: Span calibration or Linearity calibration. Span calibration resets the balance’s weighing range using two weight values: zero and a weight value at or near the balance’s capacity. Linearity calibration minimizes deviation between actual and displayed weights within the balance’s weighing range. Three weight values are used: zero, a weight value within the balances weighing range, and a weight value at or near the balance’s specified capacity. The following table shows the sequence in which submenus appear on the Calibration menu.

Before beginning calibration, make sure masses are on hand. If you begin calibra­tion and realize masses are not available, either turn the balance off, or go through the procedure without masses. The bal­ance will use previously stored calibration data. Calibration should be performed as necessary to ensure accurate weighing. Masses required to perform the proce­dures are listed in the adjacent table.

Pre­cision Plus balances permit you to select one of four stability ranges (in divisions) as shown in the table.
When the RS232 interface is configured to print stable data only, the stability range also governs data output. Displayed data will only be output if it is within the selected stability range.
