The first thing you will see are all of the
LEDS light up at the front and to the right
with the screen reading its release number.
After about five seconds, the
screen will switch over to the live mode,
which should show a live reading, such as
"000.00" and the LEDs to the right turn
off. The decimal point setting may be
different on your indicator. We will
be setting this in upcoming steps.

  • Page 5 (10) (11) Press MODE. Referring to the actual load Press MODE. Below, the display is showing the value of the "Scale". However, that will be applied for calibrating purposes, we will need to enter the weight we cannot change this setting because it is you will be applying.
  • Page 6 (12) Press MODE. Here, we will input the number for the FS (Full-Scale), which sets the analog output to 10VDC to match the weight value entered here. Wait one second... Again, in this demo, we are working with 100lbf, so we enter "0100.00". The decimal point may not be showing here but it will in the end, so remember where you placed it.
  • Page 7 (13) Press MODE. Now we will create set points above the maximum capacity. Press MODE again. Be sure that the set point has "HI" selected. Press MODE again. Now we will enter the value for this set point. Wait one second... Enter the value "150.00"...

    Up to this point, we haven't applied any force to our sensor. For demonstration purposes, we will apply a simulated load of 2mV/V for the 9860 as (19) though 100 lbf was applied to a load cell having a max capacity of 100 lbf.
