3. INSTALLATION
a) Unpack then product.
b) Level the platform by adjusting the adjustable feet until the bubble is in the centre of the level. The stability of the
platform is very important.
ALL THE CORNERS MUST REST IN A UNIFORM WAY. Carefully check that all feet fully rest on the ground and that the
platform, loaded on the corner, is not unstable (if a corner is not resting on the ground its relative foot is easier to turn).
3.1 POWER SUPPLY AND START-UP
The indicator can be powered with a fitted external power adapter or just with the fitted battery.
NOTE: it is advisable to completely recharge the battery (12 hours) with the first installation of the instrument.
TO POWER the instrument through the 240 Vac mains put the AC/DC power plug in the appropriate socket under the scale
and the power adapter in the 240 Vac mains socket.
TO TURN ON/TURN OFF the instrument, press the C-On/Off key at length.
The display shows:
UL569
XX_X is the name of the model: "NCS"
02.YY is the installed software version.
The indicator has an "auto zero at start-up" function: in other words it means that if at start-up a weight within +/- 10% of the
capacity is detected, it will be zeroed; if the weight is not within this tolerance, with a non approved instrument the display
shows the present weight after a few instants, while with an approved instrument "ZerO" is shown continuously on the
display, until the weight does not re-enter within this tolerance.
After this, it shows "hi rES" (in case of NOT approved instrument) or "LEGAL" (in case of approved instrument).
3.2 BATTERY POWERED
The weighing indicator can be operated from the battery if desired.
When the battery needs charging the "- LO -" message on the display appears. The battery should be charged when the
message appears. The scale will still operate for some minutes after which it will automatically switch off to protect the
battery.
To charge the battery simply plug into the mains power. The scale does not need to be turned on.
The battery should be charged for 12 hours for full capacity.
One can find the "- - AC - -" message on the PCS display to indicate the status of battery charging. When the scale is
plugged into the mains power the internal battery will be charged.
As the battery is used it may fail to hold a full charge. If the battery life becomes unacceptable then contact your distributor
