Introduction

This Operator's Guide describes the use of SHTRIH-PRINT 4.5 digital label printing scales (hereinafter LP Scale
or scale).
SHTRIH-PRINT 4.5 LP scales are available in five designs: SHTRIH-PRINT, SHTRIH-PRINT M, SHTRIH-PRINT FI, SHTRIH-
PRINT S, and SHTRIH-PRINT PV. Each design can be produced with a vacuum fluorescent display (VFD, code D1) or a liquid crystal
display (LCD, code D2). The scale is equipped with a set of interfaces (code I1) including RS-232 and Ethernet 10/100BaseT. This
Operator's Guide describes the use of all designs of SHTRIH-PRINT LP scales, except for SHTRIH-PRINT S version designed for
self-service operation.
The LP scale receives power from the alternating current electricity network with the voltage of ~220 V (185 to 255 V)
and the frequency of 50 Hz (49 to 51 Hz). The maximum power consumption of the scale is 75 Watt. The operating
temperature range is +10 to +40°C.
The main function of the scale is calculation of a product cost by its weight and unit price and subsequent printing
of a label containing EAN13 bar code and various textual and graphic information. Product weight value is obtained by
measuring it on the scale. Unit price is set either from the numeric keypad (manual input) or by selecting an item from the
internal memory of the scale. An item stored in the internal memory of the scale contains a set of information such as item
name, unit price, shelf life, etc. This information is used in various ways during weighing and printing labels, e.g. item name
is indicated on the scale display and can be printed on a label. Items and unit prices can also be called up with quick access
keys, if keyboard keys are properly programmed by the system administrator.
The scale has a built-in memory to store item information and additional textual information (messages). The memory
allocation for items and messages is set by the system administrator. The maximum quantity of items that can be stored in the
selected configuration of the scale memory is displayed during the unit power-up self-test. For example, the description
"SHTRIH-PRINT 4900 F" means that the model design of the scale is "F" (Prepacking) and that the system administrator set the
scale to store up to 4900 PLUs, which also allows having up to 4000 messages of 8 lines each. PLU (Price Look-Up Unit) is an
element of the scale internal memory containing the following item data:

Item Name (2 lines of 28 characters);

Item Code (up to "999999");

Item Unit Price (up to "9999.99", or up to "999999", if the decimal separator is to used);

Item Shelf Life (in days, up to "9999");

Item Preset Tare Weight Value (Tare Max Weight value is indicated on the special sticker under the display
of the scale);

Item Group Code (up to "9999"; it is possible to store Item Production Date instead of Item Group Code);

Item Message Number (for details refer to the paragraph below);

Item Image Number ("1".."4");

Item Certificate Code (4 characters);

Item Type (weight item or non-weight item);

Item Sale Date;

Item Priority Label Format Number (up to "15");

Item Priority Bar Code Structure Number (up to "14");

Item Priority Bar Code Prefix Number (up to "4").
Message is an additional textual information printed on a label that can be used for various purposes, e.g. to
provide complimentary information about the store, an item, or a group of items. Each message has its unique number
and contains several (4 to 30) lines of 50 characters (number of lines in a message and characters per line are set by
Operator's Guide
