  • Page 4: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION • The Adam Equipment WARRIOR series provide accurate, fast and versatile general purpose type weighing scales with parts counting, percentage weighing and check-weighing functions. • The WARRIOR has LED’s next to the display to indicate when a weight is below the low limit, in between the limits or above the high limit.

  • Page 6: Installation

    INSTALLATION UNPACKING The WARRIOR scales have already been adjusted to work with a platform and have been configured for this application. The platform and indicator have been calibrated as a pair and must be used together. LOCATING • The scales should not be placed in a location that will reduce the accuracy.
  • Page 7: Setting Up The Scales

    SETTING UP THE SCALES • Remove the Indicator from its box and fix it to the U shaped bracket using the 2 x fixing handles. Take the Indicator and place it onto the pillar ensuring the slack cable is pushed inside. Fix the Indicator to the pillar using the screw provided.
  • Page 8: Key Descriptions

    KEY DESCRIPTIONS Used to reset the display to zero. Tares the scale. Used to deduct and store the weight currently on the scale if it is not required as part of the final weighing result. A secondary function, is of an “Enter” key used when setting up a value for the Parameters.
  • Page 9 Selects the Function parameters of the scale. A secondary function (C) is to act as a clear key when clearing an accumulated total. Sends the results to a PC or a Printer using the RS-232 interface. It also adds the value to the accumulation memory if the accumulation function is not automatic.
  • Page 10: Displays

    DISPLAYS The LCD display will show a value as well as the unit currently being used. In addition the LED’s above the display will show when a weight is below, inside or above the check-weighing limits. Other symbols will show when a weight has been tared (NET), the scale is at zero and stable, if a value has been stored in memory, or when the animal weighing function has been enabled.
  • Page 11: Operation

    OPERATION ZEROING THE DISPLAY • You can press the [ 0/T  ] key at any time to set the display to   zero. This will usually be when the platform is empty. When the zero point is obtained the display will show an indicator for zero. •...
  • Page 12: Weighing A Sample

    • Press the [ 0/T  ] key to tare the scale. The weight is deducted   and stored as the tare value leaving zero on the display. The “NET” indicator will be ON and as a product is added only the net weight of the product will be shown.
  • Page 13: Parts Counting

    PARTS COUNTING If parts counting is enabled, it is possible to count parts using a sample of the parts to determine average piece weight. • Before starting, tare the weight of any container that may be used, leaving the empty container on the scale. Place a known number of samples in the container, if used.
  • Page 14: Check-Weighing

    • Press the [Pcs/ ] key to return to normal weighing. Press the [Pcs/ ] key again to start counting a different sample. CHECK-WEIGHING Check-weighing is a procedure to cause lamps to come on (and if enabled, an alarm to sound) when the weight on the scale meets or exceeds values stored in memory.
  • Page 15: Accumulated Total

    ACCUMULATED TOTAL • The scale can be set to accumulate manually by pressing the [Print/M+/Esc] key or automatically when a weight is removed from the scale. See the Section 7.3 for details of setting the Parameter “C3 PRM” and “C4 Aon”. The accumulation function is available when weighing or when counting parts.
  • Page 16: Percent Weighing

    PERCENT WEIGHING The scale can be set to perform percent weighing. See Section 7.2. The scale will use a mass on the platform as the 100% reference weight. If the platform is empty (or the scale is tared) then the user can input a reference weight using the keypad.
  • Page 17 • The number of decimal points will depend on the weight used in comparison to the capacity of the system. A smaller weight will show only “100%” while a larger weight might show “100.00%”. • If the scale was showing zero weight when entering this function, then the user must manually enter the weight to be set as 100% as described below.
  • Page 18: Animal (Dynamic) Weighing

    ANIMAL (DYNAMIC) WEIGHING The scale can be set to animal (dynamic) weighing for weighing any items that are unstable or may move. See Section 7.4. The scale will use a special filter to minimise the effects of any movement while the moving animal or unstable samples are on the scale.
  • Page 19 ANIMAL WEIGHING PROCEDURE • With the platform empty the display will show zero weight. Place containers or blankets onto the platform and press the [ 0/T    ] key to zero the display. The scale may go into the animal (dynamic) weighing procedure when the items are placed on the scale but will return to showing zero when the [ 0/T...
  • Page 20: User Parameters

    USER PARAMETERS Pressing the [Func/C] key during normal operation allows the user to access the parameters for customizing the scale. The parameters are split into 4 groups:- 1. Check weighing parameters, 2. Percent and Animal Weighing Functions 3. RS-232 parameters 4.
