you encounter an error code, please refer to this list for the cause.
ANALOG HIGH
1. The load cell input is above the allowed range of the indicator.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: Check for improper load cell wiring, excessive load, and for output
of 1 to 40mV.
2. Load cell or circuit failure.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: Consult your scale service provider.
ANALOG LOW
1. The load cell input is below the allowed range of the indicator.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: Check for improper load cell wiring and for output of 1 to 40mV.

CAL Button
Cal BUTTON will be displayed (until the condition changes), on power-up if the calibration switch
is pressed in by the operator, the calibration access screw is the wrong length and is depressing
the switch, the switch is disconnected from the PC board, or the switch is defective.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: Release the switch. Insure correct screw (#10 x ½ Stainless Steel

sure calibration switch cable is plugged into P3 on the PC board. Replace calibration switch
assembly. Consult your scale service provider.
CAPACITY
The load on the scale exceeds the scale capacity (105% of capacity if USA=YES or plus 9
divisions if USA=NO). May indicate mis-calibration.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: Remove the over capacity load from the scale platform. Consult your
scale service provider regarding recalibration.
-CHECK MATL-
In a Digital Fill Control or Batcher operation configured for decumulative operation
(DCUMLATE=YES) there is not enough material to start the operation.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: Determine the reason for the error display and take the appropriate
corrective action.
-CHECK ZERO-
In a Digital Fill Control or Batcher operation with DUMP GATE=YES and AUTO TARE=NO the
weight is above the zero tolerance value.
