Page 32: Environmental Settings
Environmental Settings Your balance can be set up for optimized weighing to compensate for varying conditions including vibration and drafts. Adjusting Filter Settings The filter setting is set to take a number of readings and display the average on the screen. If you are in a very stable environment (i.e. on a marble slab and away from the heating/cooling system) there is no need to perform a high amount of filtering this also allows for a quicker response time. -
Page 33: Setting The Stability Icon
Setting the stability icon: Many laboratories rely on the stability icon to be displayed before a measurement is recorded. This balance can be adjusted to deter- mine how much the weight can change before the stability icon disappears. A very coarse setting means there must be significant change for the stability icon to change to unstable, while a fine set- ting removes the stability icon with very little change. -

Display Your Pinnacle series balance requires the use of a custom, non- standard communication cable available from Denver Instrument, part number 902225.1. If you wish to manufacture your own cable, please refer to the pin-out below. Pin 9 must not be connected. -
