Annunciators - Cardinal Detecto C Series Operation Manual

ANNUNCIATORS

The annunciators are turned on to indicate that the scale is in the mode corresponding to the
annunciator label or that the status indicated by the label is active. It will be helpful to refer to
the scale keyboard when reading this section. The following describes the functions of each
annunciator.
lb
The lb annunciator is illuminated to show that the weight displayed is in pounds. The UNITS
key may be used to select pounds as the weighing units.
kg
The kg annunciator is illuminated to show that the weight displayed is in kilograms. The
UNITS key may be used to select kilogram as the weighing units.
NET
The NET annunciator is illuminated to show that the weight displayed is the net weight. Net
weight is determined by subtracting the stored tare weight from the gross or scale weight.
The tare weight, usually the weight of the container, is entered using the tare key. Note that
the NET annunciator is only active when a zero-tare weight or tare weight value is stored
and the display is in the weight mode as shown by the illumination of the lb or kg
annunciator.
ZERO (Center-of-Zero)
The Center-of-Zero annunciator is located on the left of the display and is illuminated to
indicate that the weight is within +/- 1/4 division of the center of zero.
Insuf Sample
The Insuf Sample annunciator is located on the lower left of the display and is illuminated to
show that the sample is too small to calculate an accurate piece weight. If the counting
function is continued without increasing the sample size, the scale will still operate even
though accuracy will be affected.
 (Stable)
The (Stable) annunciator is located at the bottom left of the display and is illuminated when
the WEIGHT display is stable.
(Low Battery)
The Low Battery annunciator will illuminate to indicate that the internal battery requires
charging. No change in operation will occur until just before the battery voltage drops to a
level where operation is affected. At this level, the scale will automatically turn itself off.
When the battery requires charging, the CHARGING LED will turn Red. After the battery has
been recharged, the CHARGING LED will turn Green.
REMOTE
The REMOTE Scale annunciator is located at the bottom of the display and is illuminated
when the optional remote scale has been selected for use. The remote scale is selected by
pressing the REMOTE key.
