REAR PANEL RS-232 PORT DC POWER LOAD CELL LOAD CELL: Port for connecting load cell. RS-232 PORT: Serial interface port. (computer, printer) DC POWER: Port for DC power. (DC 12V adapter are available) OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Power On Turn on the power by pressing the power button for 2 seconds. Once on, the scale will ash the voltage and then begin to auto-check and count down from 0-9 sequentially before entering the weighing mode Note: Anything on the scale before powering on will automatically be tared out.

Note: If you remove the container the scale will show the minus weight of the container To use a pre-set tare weight Press and hold the TARE key for 2 seconds Input the tare weight using the arrow keys Press print key to confirm Counting Function The counting function is used to count a high volume of identical parts.
Hold There are 4 different hold functions you can choose from in the C11 parameter 1.Peak Hold: Grabs the highest weight (for materials testing, ie. tension and pulling force) Press the HOLD key then add weight to the scale The indicator will show the highest weight it recorded and hold it on the screen until a higher weight is placed on the scale 2.Manual Hold: Grabs the current weight and holds it so it will not change/fluctuate While weighing, press HOLD and the indicator will hold the current weight on the screen until...

. The display will count down from 10-1 while the scale is calibrating zero. When the display shows 0 the zero calibration is complete. OP-909 offers 2 calibration methods, Single Point which uses one weight to calibrate or Linear Calibration, which uses multiple (2-7) weights for a more accurate calibration.

23. Enter the calibration weight value you will use (at least 10% of max capacity you set in C04 by using UNITS to move the cursor right, and TARE and ZERO move the values down and up.) 24. Place the calibration weight you have on the empty scale and press PRINT enter. 25.
INDICATOR PARAMETER SETTINGS The parameter settings menu has a calibration section (C01 to C07 explained above) and a parameter settings section (C08 and up). To access the calibration section the seal switch (located at one corner of the PCB) must be OFF.
