Possible Solutions
AC Operation:
Is the AC power cord fully inserted into the wall receptacle? Check
wall receptacle for proper AC power. Try another electrical appliance
in the same receptacle, does it work? Check the circuit breaker. Has
there been power failure?
Battery operation:
Check if batteries are installed and correctly. Are batteries
discharged? Replace if Alkaline or recharge if NI-CAD or NiMH.
Has the indicator been calibrated? Insure that the scale platform isn't
touching an adjacent object. Check the load cell connector wiring. If
using four (4) wire load cells, insure the sense lead jumpers (J1 & J2)
are installed. If using a low dead-load scale, install the dead load
boost jumper, J3. Have proper operation procedures been followed?
Refer to Error and Status Display section and make certain that the
O CAP message is not displayed. If so, and scale is not loaded,
perform the calibration sequence.
