Page 9: Section 1. Unpacking And Installation
The 3 enclosures are pictured below. In addition to the 4200 models, this manual covers the Model 4100L, which is a "Legal for Trade" version of the Model 4100 Checkweigher. The 4100L is identical to the 4200 electronically, but is different in the display and front panel. -
Page 10: Unpacking
INSTALLATION 4200 Tower: Models with 10" x 10", 12" x 12", and 12" x 16" platforms are shipped in one piece (fully assembled). When unpacking models with 18" x 18", 18" x 24", and 24"... -
Page 11: Electrical Connections
Section 6 of this manual. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS The Model 4200 requires 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz power (240 VAC or DC power optional). Be sure the AC power is not excessively noisy - this can occur if large inductive loads, such as solenoids or motors, are on the same power line. -
Page 12: Section 2. Quick Setup Guide
In most cases, your Model 4200 will be completely configured and calibrated at the factory. If the indicator is ordered without a Doran platform, the indicator will need to be set up using the following guide. If you have any questions about setting up or calibrating the indicator, refer to the more complete sections in this manual for more information. -

Section 4 Scale Operation When the correct setpoint is displayed, press the PROD button once more and the display will show the current value entered for the setpoint selected. If the value is just being recalled, pressing the PROD button again will return the scale to normal weighing with no change to the setpoint value. -
Page 26: Sta Mode
Section 4 Scale Operation STA MODE In this mode, the seven setpoints indicate the status of various functions of the 4200, e.g. motion, overload, etc. There are therefore no values to change. Listed below are the functions of each setpoint in this mode. In this mode, normal setpoints cannot be used--all setpoints are used to indicate the scale status. -
Page 27: Time And Date
Section 4 Scale Operation After the buffers are set up as explained in Section 8, the print format parameter must be set to option 13 (see Section 6, parameter 15). When the buffers are set up and print format 13 selected, the buffers can be used to print as required. -
Page 28: Section 5. Checkweighing
The OVER, UNDER and ACCEPT indicators can be used with or without the digital weight display. Either can be turned off for maximum flexibility of the 4200 scale display. See "Checkweigh Operation (C.O.)" and "Display Operation (doP)" setup parameters. -
Page 29: Tolerance Entry And Display Modes
'd' are DIS modes. Each of these modes is explained fully in Section 4. The 4 display modes are: 4200 Standard (S42, P42, and d42), Value Per Bar (Sd, Pd, and dd), Scaled (SS, PS, and dS), and Modified Value Per Bar (SdA, PdA, and ddA). -
Page 30: 4200 Standard (S42, P42, D42)
Section 5 Checkweighing 4200 Standard (S42, P42, d42) In this mode, the whole Over, Under, or Accept display region will illuminate for the given condition. For example, if Over is set for 2.50 lb, and 2.51 lb is placed on the platform, the whole Over region will light up. -
Page 31: Value Per Bar (Sd, Pd, Dd)
Section 5 Checkweighing Value per Bar (Sd, Pd, dd) This mode is used for zero checkweighing only. The Over and Under values determine the value of each bargraph bar for that part of the display. The Over value specifies the value for each bar to the right of the center of the Accept region. -
Page 32: Scaled (Ss, Ps, Ds)
Section 5 Checkweighing Scaled (SS, PS, dS) This mode is used strictly in net checkweighing and is similar to the 4200 standard mode. The difference is in the fact that single bars can illuminate, giving an indication of where the weight on the scale is in relation to the capacity of the scale. -
Page 33: Modified Value Per Bar (Sda, Pda, Dda)
Section 5 Checkweighing Modified Value per Bar (SdA, PdA, ddA) This mode can be used for zero or net checkweighing and is similar to the Value per Bar mode. The difference is that the values per bar are calculated instead of specified. The Over value determines the over point, the Under value determines the under point, and the value per bar is found by dividing the difference between the Over and Under values by 10. -
Page 34: Section 6. Parameter Setup
The 4200 has a powerful software "User Setup Menu" that allows you to program up to 25 scale parameters such as update rate, weight display units, scale capacity and resolution, and much more. This allows you to customize the 4200 to your exact needs - and it is easy! It is a good idea to familiarize yourself with the "User Setup Menu"... -
