1.3 Usage precautions
Do not use the scale as a dynamic weighing instrument. Even if small quantities of
weighed material are added or removed from the weighing pan of the instrument,
the reading should be taken only after stabilisation of the measurement results. Do
not place any magnetic materials on the weighing pan, as this can cause damage
to the measuring system of the instrument.
Be sure to avoid impact shock and overloading the scale in excess of the
prescribed maximum measuring range (max capacity), minus any possible tare
weight that has been applied.
Never use the scale in an environment where explosion is possible. This scale has
not been adjusted for operation in hazardous areas.
There must not be any modification made to the scale.
1.4 Warranty
Warranty is invalid for the following:
• non- observation of the guidelines of this user manual,
• use of the scale other than specified in this manual,
• alteration to or opening of the device,
• mechanical damage and damage caused by media, water, wear and tear,
• inappropriate assembling or defects of electric installation,
• overloading of the measuring instrument.
1.5 Metrological par ameters monitoring
Metrological characteristics of the scale require periodical inspection to be carried
out by its user. Inspection frequency is dependent on ambient conditions in which
the scale is used, types of performed processes and accepted quality management
system in organization.
1.6 User manual significance
Please read the user manual carefully before assembling and start-up, even if you
are experienced with this type of weighing instruments.
1.7 Staff training
This scale should only be operated and maintained by personnel who is trained and
experienced in using this type of scales.

2. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 Delivery check
Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery, while unpacking the device
make sure that there are no visible signs of external damage.
2.2 Packaging
Please retain all parts of the original packaging should the scale be transported in
the future. Only the original packaging shall be used for shipping the scale. Before
packing, disconnect all attached cables and remove any loose/movable parts
(weighing pan, anti-draft shield, etc.). Please place scale and its components in the
original packaging, thus protecting them against damage during transport.

Page 12
3. UNPACKING, INSTALLING AND TESTING
3.1 Place of use and ins tallation
• The scale should be stored and used in locations free of vibrations and
shakes, and free of air movement and dust.
• Ambient air temperature should not exceed the range of: +10 °C ÷ +40 °C.
• Ambient relative humidity should not exceed 80%.
• During operation, ambient temperature in the weighing room should not
change more than 3 °C within one hour.
• The device should be located on a stable wall console desk or a stable
working table, not affected by vibrations, distant from heat sources.
• Since part of the scale is a strong magnet it is necessary to take special
precaution when weighing magnetic objects. Should such loads be
weighed, use under-pan weighing option, with this the weighed load is
removed from an area influenced by the magnet. The hook for under-pan
weighing is installed in scale base.
• In order to avoid the influence of static electricity on the measurement
process, ground the scale housing. The grounding bolt is located at the
back of the scale housing.
3.2 Unpacking
Cut the sealing tape. Take the scale out of the packaging. Open the accessories
box and take all necessary components. Upon placing the scale in the desired
location, assembly its weighing pan and other parts following an instruction.
Be as gentle as possible so as not to damage the scale mechanism by accident.

9.1 Good weighing practic e
In order to ensure long lasting use of the device and reliable measurement of
weighed loads, follow the guidelines below:
• Start the scale with no load on a weighing pan (permissible value of load
on the weighing pan on scale start is ±10% of its maximal capacity).
• Load the weighing pan steadily avoiding shocks:
• Place weighed loads centrally on the weighing pan:
• Avoid side loading, in particular side shocks:
The scale requires adjusting before running the weighing process or in case of
drastic change of ambient conditions at a workstation (e.g. ambient temperature

CAUTION!
Zeroing the display indication is possible only within the ±2% range of instrument’s
maximal capacity. If the zeroed value is above the ±2% of the maximal capacity,
then the software indic ates an error message Err2.
9.3 Tarring
Tarring is a function allowing to determine net weight of a measured object. In order
to determine net weight of the object, place object’s container (packaging) on the
weighing pan, and on stabilization of measurement result press
key. The
display should indicate mass equal to zero and symbols: Net and . On taking
off the weighed load and its packaging from instrument’s weighing pan, the display
indicates sum of total tarred mass with minus sign.
The software also enables assigning tare value to a product from a database.
Then, on product selection from a database, the software automatically uploads
data on tare value for the specific product.
CAUTION!
Tarring negative values is impossible. On tarring negative values the scale
responds with an error message Err3. In such case zero scale indication and
repeat tarring procedure.

9.4.1 Filter level setting
Filter shall be set depending on the ambient and environment conditions. For the
best possible conditions the filter can work in a very fast mode (V.FAST value for
parameter P.2.2.1.1 Filter); however, if the conditions are bad (shakes, drafts), the
filter should be set to slow or very slow option (SLOW or V. SLOW value for
parameter P.2.2.1.1 Filter). The effectiveness of the filter is different for the
weighing range. The filter works slower when “approaching” the weighed mass, it
works more intensively for weighed mass within the set range of the filter
(parameter for setting filter range is accessible only from the service menu – the
user does not have an access to it).
Depending on the filter, the weighing time is shorter (V.FAST and FAST) or longer
(SLOW and V. SLOW).
CAUTION!
The higher filter level, the longer weighing time.
- 31 -
Page 32
9.4.2 Value release
Since ambient conditions at a workplace vary, it is necessary to determine the
value release parameter in a most preferable way enabling scale adaptation,
parameter options are: FAST.+REL., FAST or RELIABLE. Depending on selected
option, weighing time is either shorter or longer.
9.4.3 Autozero function
The software features autozero function (Auto) ensuring precise mass indication.
This function automatically controls and corrects zero indication. When Autozero is
enabled, it compares scale indications at declared time interval e.g. 1s, providing
that weighing pan is unloaded and display indication is close to zero. If results vary
less than declared AUTOZERO range e.g. one division, scale zeros automatically,

If AUTOZERO function is enabled, then each weighing process starts from precise
zero point. There are, however, some cases when this function can be a disturbing
factor for the measuring process; e.g. very slow placing of load on the weighing pan
(load pouring). Here, zero indication correction can also correct actual indication of
loaded mass.
and precise zero marker – are

Page 33
9.4.4 Last digit display
Function enables displaying the last digit on a display.
9.4.5 Ambient conditions
Ambient conditions parameter features two settings: STABLE and UNSTABLE.
Selecting STABLE mode makes the scale work much faster, ie. weighing takes
much less time than for UNSBABLE mode. This parameter relates to ambient and
environmental conditions in which the scale operates. If the ambient conditions are
unstable it is recommended to use UNSTABLE mode. Normally the parameter is
set to STABLE option.
9.5 AUTOTARE
AUTOTARE function is designed to enable quick determination of net weight for
loads with different tare values, being weighed one after another.
When function is active (<P2.2.2 AUTOTARE> value set to <YES>), the operating
process is as follows:
• Make sure that the weighing pan is empty and press zeroing button,
• Put product packaging on a weighing pan,
- 33 -
Page 34
• Wait until the measurement indication is stable, automatic tarring of the
packaging weight proceeds (Net marker appears in the upper part of the
display),
• Put product that is to be packed on the packaging;
• Display shows a net weight of the product;
• Take off the product together with the packaging;
• The scale cancels tare value (packaging weight saved in scale storage
during the first step of the operating process) after the gross weight value
(set in < P 2.2.3.2 AUTO THRES> parameter) has been exceeded;
• Put packaging of a next product on a weighing pan, after measurement
stabilization automatic tarring of the packaging weight proceeds (Net
marker appears in the upper part of the display);
• Put a next product that is to be packed.
For correct operation of the scale with AUTOTARE function it is necessary to adjust
the threshold value.
<P 2.2.3.2 AUTO THRES > parameter is connected with the following functions:
• automatic tare,
• automatic operation,
There is no automatic tarring until the scale operates within the gross mass value
range set in < P 2.2.3.2 AUTO THRES > parameter.
9.6 Printout mode
Printout function is designed to set the printing mode, i.e. button activity.
Printout mode settings:
• <WHEN STAB> the stable measurement result, along with the settings for
parameter <GLP PRINTOUT>, is sent to the printer port. On pressing
button at the moment when the result has not stabilized yet (no
sign on a display), the scale software waits for the stable indication
before sending it to the port.
• <EACH> every single pressing of button results in sending the
measurement result to the printer port along with the settings for
parameter <GLP PRINTOUT>. Every measurement result is sent (stable
and unstable). The <?> sign appears at the beginning of the printing frame
when the result is unstable.

Automatic operation procedure:
• Press button to zero the scale (marker of stable measurement
and zero marker are displayed).
• Load the weighing pan, the scale sends the first stable measurement to
the printer port.
• Unload the weighing pan.
• Next measurement is possible when the indication is lower than the set
value of <AUTO THRES.> parameter (next measurement does not require
zero value).
Procedure for settings modification:
For automatic operation it is necessary to adjust the threshold value.
<P 2.2.3.2 AUTO THRES > parameter is connected with the following functions:
• automatic tare,
• automatic operation,

11.11 GLP Autotest
AUTOTEST function is designed to aid a user in evaluating scale operation and
diagnosing the reasons for occurrence of weighing errors that exceed the maximum
permissible values for a given scale model.
By means of a simple, repeatable and fully documented way, the function enables
optimizing scale settings to maintain the best possible repeatability and weighing
time at workstation. The main purpose of the function is the aforementioned
parameters monitoring, possible to be performed at an optional moment, and
saving records from the carried out tests in the form of printed reports on the tests,
the reports are automatically generated at the end of examination.
GLP Autotest tests repeatability for putting the interval weight on a weighing pan
and repeatability of determining error of indication, wherein the error is referred to
scale maximum capacity.
Testing procedure:
• deposit internal weight twice,
• deposit internal weight ten times,
• perform scale adjustment,
• calculate the value of standard deviation,
• print a report.

13. ADJUS TMENT PRO CEDURE
Adjustment procedure is performed in order to ensure the highest weighing
accuracy, it is required to carry out the adjustment procedure once a while. For
adjustment performance, introduce a corrective factor of indications to scale
memory, remember to refer the said factor to a mass standard.
Adjustment should be carried out:
• before the beginning of weighing procedure,
• if long breaks between successive measuring series occur,
• if temperature inside the scale changes more than: 3°C.
Types of adjustment:
• Automatic internal adjustment
* triggered by scale temperature change
* triggered by elapsing time
• Manual internal adjustment
* triggered by pressing
• Adjustment with external weight
* of declared mass which cannot be modified
* of any weight, but not lower than 30% of maximum range.
13.1 Internal adjustment
Adjustment process can be initiated automatically and manually.
For manual activation press
button. The procedure is carried out
automatically by an automatic adjustment system, no operator interference is
required till the end. Respective information on successive process stages is
displayed.
Automatic adjustment process cycle:
• The software detects the necessity of carrying out an adjustment
procedure, it is signalled by a thermometer pictogram and <Cal> sign at
the top of the display.
- 49 -
Page 50
• Successive weighings can be carried out for about 2 minutes, no longer.
• After 2-minute time interval, message ‘CAL_30’ is displayed, countdown
timer counting seconds from 30..29..28 to 0 is run.
• The user has 30 seconds to make a decision on next steps:
o no action shall be taken in order to enable start of the adjustment
procedure,
o Esc button shall be pressed in order to enable completion of the
weighing procedure. With Esc button pressed, weighing
procedure can be continued, last weighing result is displayed.
Message ‘CAL_30’ reappears on the screen in about 5 minutes.
• The adjustment process can be postponed repeatedly, nevertheless it
shall be remembered that postponing the adjustment for a long time may
lead to greater errors occurring in course of weighing process. The errors
are the effect of temperature changes and as a consequence changes of
scale sensitivity.
Automatic adjustment process takes place for three different cases:
• Adjustment on plugging the scale to mains – for verified devices.
• Adjustment triggered by scale temperature change. The scale is equipped
with a very precise system for temperature monitoring. At each adjustment
process, the temperature is saved in the system. The next adjustment is
automatically initiated if temperature difference between current and last
saved value is greater than 3°C.
• Adjustment triggered by elapsing time. It is possible to declare time
intervals which are criteria for adjustment performance. Settings allow the
adjustment to be carried out every 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
hour(s).

17.6.1 Additional mode settings
Animal Weighing mode features standard weighing mode parameters along with
supplementary parameters designed to improve this mode operation.
Supplementary parameters:
• AVERAGING TIME – time period for measurement records analysis,
obtained data is used to determine average measurement result.
• THRESHOLD - value expressed in mass measuring units, to start
measurement, the indication value has to exceed value set in the
threshold.
• AUTOSTART - determines start criterion for measurements: whether they
are initiated manually (on pressing a button or selecting START), or
automatically.
When the parameter is set to <YES> option, the measurement starts
automatically if indication on display exceeds the value of set threshold.
The next measurement can start on removing the weighed object from a
pan (the indication has to return below the value set in threshold), loading
a new object, and exceeding the threshold’s value by the indication.
Remember to adjust settings of the above parameters prior to tests. The set values
shall be respective to needs and expectations resulting from working environment.
