The bubble should be in the center of the circle. For the EJ-123, EJ-303, EJ-1202 and EJ-3002 balances, the two leveling feet on the front side have a two-tier structure. To adjust the height of the balance, turn the lower leveling feet.
Balance location To measure correctly, to keep the balance in good condition, and to prevent hazards, observe the following: Do not install the balance in locations that are subject to excessive dust, breezes, vibration, large temperature fluctuations, condensation, or that may have magnetic fields. Install the balance on a solid surface and keep the balance level.
Page 12
Installing the Batteries 1. Turn the balance off and disconnect the AC adapter if used. 2. Slide the battery cover off. 3. Push the battery box up to unhook and pull it out. 4. Insert four new batteries (LR6 / R6P / AA) into the battery box, taking extreme care of the polarities.
4.3. Breeze Break (For the EJ-123 / EJ-303) The breeze break can prevent a measurement error due to a (disturbing) wind. The clear cover can be disconnected from the fixing frame easily when adding an excessive stress during operation. Assemble the breeze break with the following steps.
4.4. Breeze Break (For the EJ-54D2) The breeze break can prevent a measurement error due to a (disturbing) wind. Detaching the Breeze Break With the hooks located on the left and right sides of the balance held up, raise the breeze break.
Page 15
Attaching the Breeze Break 1. Align the breeze break with the balance. Place the breeze break so that the handle of the sliding door will face forward. 2. Engage the hooks to the guides on the balance to secure the breeze break. Confirm that the two hooks are securely engaged.
5. OPERATION 5.1. Turn the Power ON and OFF 1. Press the ON:OFF key to turn the power ON. STABLE Weighing units ZERO All of the symbols are displayed as shown above. (About units: Only the available units will be displayed.) Only when operated using the batteries, the balance subsequently performs a countdown using the underscore on the display.
5.4. Selecting a Weighing Unit Press the UNITS key to select a unit. Each pressing switches the units available in the order described The following sections are a description of on the previous page. the three common units: g (gram mode), pcs STABLE indicator (counting mode), and % (percent mode).
5.6. Weighing Range (EJ-54D2 only) The EJ-54D2 has two weighing ranges available as follows: Range 1 (low range)…22 g×0.0002 g Range 2 (high range)…52 g×0.001 g Function settings available to select how the weighing range changes: automatic range (rng 1) or manual range (rng 0). Operation Function Description...
5.8. Counting Mode (pcs) The balance weighs the sample pieces and calculates the unit weight. Using the sample unit weight, the balance counts the number of items in the sample. As for the minimum unit weight acceptable, refer to the item “Umin” of “8.5. Function List”.
10. Counting accuracy is improved when the ACAI indicator turns off. Each time the above operation is performed, a more accurate unit weight will be obtained. There is no definite upper limit of ACAI range for the number of samples exceeding 100. Try to add a similar number of samples as that displayed.
6. ACCUMULATION FUNCTION This function counts the number of times objects are weighed, calculates the total mass value and displays the number (accumulated count) and accumulated mass value. Preset the item “totl” of the function list to use the accumulation function. For the EJ-54D2, please note that the accumulation function is only available within the range of Range 1 (low range) when the weighing range is set to the manual range “rng 0”...
6.2. Selecting a Weighing Unit 1. Press the UNITS key to select a unit to be used in the accumulation function. 0. 0 00 The unit cannot be changed after the ZERO accumulation data is stored. To change the unit, Unit reset the accumulation data and then press the UNITS key.
7. CALIBRATION This function adjusts the balance for accurate weighing. Perform calibration in the following cases: When the balance is first used. When the balance has been moved. For regular calibration. Calibration (CAL) switch Calibration (CAL) switch cover 7.1. Calibration Using a Weight Prepare a calibration weight (sold separately) in advance.

8. FUNCTIONS 8.1. Key Operation The ON:OFF key to cancel the operation and turn the balance off. Item key to select a class and an item. In the weighing mode, press and hold the key to enter the function setting mode. The enter key to proceed to the selected class, store the setting per class and go to the next class.
8.3. Setting Example To set auto power-off function to “Enabled”, and the ACAI function to “Disabled”. Press and hold 1. Press and hold the SAMPLE key to display func func 2. Press the PRINT key to display poff 0 . poff 0 3.
8.4. Storing Weighing Units It is possible to store the weighing units that will actually be used from the units available. For the units available, refer to “5.3. Units”. Select and store the weighing units as described below: Press and hold 1.

RS-232C serial interface can be installed at one time. 9.1. EJ-02 USB Interface The EJ-02 allows an EJ-123, EJ-303, EJ-1202, EJ-3002 or EJ-54D2 balance to be connected to a personal computer with the USB interface. The EJ-02 can transmit the weight value (numerical value only) unidirectionally to a personal computer via USB.
9.2. EJ-03 RS-232C Serial Interface The EJ-03 allows an EJ-123, EJ-303, EJ-1202, EJ-3002 or EJ-54D2 balance to be connected to a printer or a personal computer using the RS-232C serial interface. The RS-232C serial interface has the following four modes: Stream mode Outputs data continuously.
