INTRODUCTION We thank you for choosing series weighing scale for your weighing needs. These scales use some of the latest and most advanced computing powers to give maximum flexibility and utility to the user. Features: weighing unit gram / kilo gram. Feather touch membrane keyboard.
INSTALLATION 1. Unpacking: Unpack the balance. Save the packing container for future use. 2. Electrical Requirements: The balance requires very stable power. It works on 230V AC supply with PROPER EARTHING. The power outlet used for the balance should not be shared with any other devices which draws current in inconsistent manner like Air Conditioner or Refrigerator etc.
OPERATION OF THE SCALE 1) FOR CHANGING WEIGHING UNITS. MODE Press key, the scale will show for some time and will display the current weighing unit, say grams keys to change the mode and Press key to select ENTER TARE Press key to discard the changes.

OPERATION OF THE SCALE ENTER Press key to change the time or TARE Press key to quit time entry. Press key, the scale will show, ENTER where xx is the hour. Use key to change hour. ZERO ENTER Press key to save. Press key to skip hour entry.
PRINT OPTION CT/CP series weighing scales can be attached to a serial printer for your printing needs. Print out can be programmed to suit most of the printing requirements. Note that the printer should have a serial port and baud rate of the scale and printer should be same.

BI-DIRECTIONAL RS232-INTERFACE Bi-directional RS-232 interface is provided in these scales to communicate with devices like computer, printer etc. The interface is provided through a nine pin D- type connector provided in the side connector plate of the scale. Connections are as below.
STORAGE OF WEIGHTS IN MEMORY Upto 100 weights can be stored in memory and recalled if required. The scale also computes the total weight of all the weights in memory. To use this option, set ACCU function to ON in SETUP functions. See relevant section. a) Clear weights in memory.

STORAGE OF WEIGHTS IN MEMORY c) Recalling weights from memory. Press Immediately Press key, the scale will display Press key, the scale will display followed by the stored weight WWWW.WW i) Press keys to see weights stored. ii) Press TARE key to end weight view and display total weight.
AUTO POWER OFF CCS series weighing scales have a built in auto power off facility, where in the displays will be switched off , if any keys are not operated for approx. 5 minutes. This will reduce power consumption and if the scale is being used with battery, it can enhance the discharge time of battery.
PIECE COUNTING MODE Contech CCS series scales can be used for piece counting purposes. Piece calibration of 25 items can be stored in memory. Accuracy of piece counting depends on the uniformity in weight of the items and the sample size used for piece calibration.

PIECE COUNTING MODE Piece Calibration Select proper piece counting memory as mentioned above. TARE Make the Weight read zero by pressing the key. Weight of any container/bags used should also be made zero. Keep known number of pieces on the pan. Press key., the scale will display ENTER...
SET POINT FACILITY This facility enables the user to set up to 3 weights for comparison with the current weights to activate different events. This feature is controlled by 3 SETUP functions. 1. Fill - Make it FL-on 2. SEt Pt. - Make it SET-1, SET-2 3.

SET POINT FACILITY Set Point 1: User can set a weight any where in the range of the scale. Depending on the weight on the pan, the following events occur. Buzzer will work only in case of models where buzzer is provided. All outputs are TTL outputs provided additionally, if needed. F-Type Weight <...

SET POINT FACILITY F-Type Weight within Weight = lower or Weight is beyond Set Limit Upper limit. the limits. Type 2 Buzzer OFF Buzzer ON Buzzer OFF O/p 1 low, if weight is more than first limit. O/p 2 low, if weight is more than second limit. O/p 1 high, if weight is less than or equal to first limit, O/p 2 high, if weight is less than or equal to second limit.
OPERATING IN TARE ZERO MODE SET POINT FACILITY TARE-ZERO mode, scale can be operated in its simplest mode. In this mode, TARE Press to make the weight zero. ZERO Press key to make weight zero. Press key to toggle between Gross and Net mode.
