Calibration Calibration The forklift scale (CLS) can be calibrated using the front panel of the CLS-680 Forklift Scale Display. The following sections describe the procedures required for calibration. All weight related parameters must be configured prior to calibrating the unit (Section 4.4.1 on page...
Note The test weight used to calibrate the individual forks cannot be greater than 2500 lb. Do the following to calibrate the CLS-680 using the front panel: 1. Access setup mode by pressing the setup switch (Section 4.1 on page 18).
The Soft AP can be used to connect to a location’s network using the Web Manager. In applications that don’t have a local network to connect to or if the network is not in range, the Soft AP connection can also be used to talk to a CLS-680 by connecting to IP 192.168.0.1, port 10001.

Enter the default login credentials for the Web Manager. • Username: admin • Password: PASSWORD It is recommended to change default passwords to limit access and for security.
11. Use the red power button on the back of the CLS-680 to power down and then power back up the unit. 12. Scan for available Bluetooth® devices on the device that is intended to be paired with the CLS-680. The CLS-680 wireless module’s Bluetooth®...
The cableless option includes a battery box assembly with an installed Zibgee module and a second Zigbee module that is already paired to install in the CLS-680. Lithium-Ion batteries and a charger are also included. It is recommended to have a second battery available to avoid any downtime.
CLS-680 responds with ?? invalid command. If the command cannot be executed in the current mode, the CLS-680 responds with ?? invalid mode. If the command is recognized, but the value is out of range or the invalid type, the CLS-680 responds with ?? followed by the type and the range.
RTCBATTERYSTATUS Returns the status of the real time clock battery (GOOD or BAD) Table 9-2. Reporting Commands Reset Configuration Command The following command can be used to reset the configuration parameters of the CLS-680. Command Function RESETCONFIGURATION Restores all configuration parameters to default values (setup mode only) Table 9-3.
To return a list of the available values for parameters with specific values, enter the command and equal sign, followed by a questions mark (command=?<ENTER>). The CLS-680 must be in setup mode to use this function. After changes are made to configuration parameters using EDP commands, use the KSAVE or KSAVEEXIT commands to commit the changes to memory.

The 1000 character limit of each print format string includes the output field length of the print formatting tokens, not the token length. For example, if the CLS-680 is configured to display a decimal point, the <G> token generates an...
ASCII characters 0 through 31 are non-human readable characters. Since these characters are not visible, they do not appear as selectable options in a CLS-680 print format. To include a special character in a print format, the decimal equivalent needs to be used. For example, the special character Esc would be <27>...
The update won’t work if either switch is in the RUN position. Both switches must be flipped. Note 3. Connect the CLS-680 J5 connector to a PC with a micro USB (A or B) to USB cable. Must be a data cable. 4. Reconnect power to the CLS-680 and power it on.

24). The actual character printed depends on the character mapping used by the output device. The CLS-680 can send or receive ASCII character values (decimal 0–255), but the CLS-680 display is limited to numbers, uppercase, unaccented letters and a few special characters. See Section 11.5 on page 51...
Audit Trail counters. 11.7 Conversion Factors for Secondary Units The CLS-680 has the capability to mathematically convert a weight into many different types of units and instantly display those results with a press of the key.
