- Page 14 Example: The scale has a weighing range of 10t; calibration value 5 kg x 2e = 10 kg, i.e. the display flashes at a weight exceeding 10010kg and "OL" appears from 10045 kg. Always pay attention that the crane scale is never overloaded due to safety reasons.
- Page 15 The crane scale can be operated via the integrated control panel below the LED display. Figure 10 - Control panel • Switch on the crane scale • Activates the automatic segment control • Crane scale automatically is set to „0“ Always switch on the crane scale 5 minutes before the first weighing operation.

- Page 17 (less than 20m), this is an indication that the batteries need to be changed (3 pieces 1.5V Type AAA, Micro LR03, AM4, MN2400). Figure 11 - Infrared remote control Some functions like Print, Add or Total can only be used in combination with EHP weighing data receiver (see Accessories on page 37).
- Page 18 This button has the same function as on the crane scale control panel. Press this key to transfer the weighing data to optionally available EHP receiving devices (see Accessories on page 37). For example, an individual receipt can be printed out on TELEDATA USB weighing data receiver.
- Page 19 Special functions are not included in the standard scope of delivery. Contact your EHP contact person for further information. Press this button to activate the pre-tare function. The display shows now the last pre-tara value. Use the keys 1 to 0 to enter the tare value and confirm with the ENTER key.
- Page 20 Press this key to confirm the numerically entered values. Flashing of this LED indicates that the IR remote control is transmitting data. Table 4 - Buttons of IR remote control...
- Page 21 To establish communication between the scale and the remote control, the transmission channel may have to be adjusted. 1. By pressing the „TEST“-Button the crane scale display shows the current setting parameter in following sequences: 88888 Segment test Release 12.21 Version Scale number (01-16) Canal number (01-28)
- Page 22 Example: After pressing the TEST button on the crane scale the setting parameters are shown with the remote control number H01. This indicates that the crane scale is sending on Channel 1. Therefore the IR remote control must be set to the transmission channel by pressing the key combination: and then followed by the key combination 2 0 1.
- Page 23 The channel number search can be performed automatically. Align the infrared remote control with the crane scale display. Press the following key combination quickly, one after the other: The canal search is indicated by blinking of the transmitter LED. As soon as the scale reacts to the signal of the remote control press ENTER again.
- Page 24 The status LED (3) indicates the charging status of the accumulator. Figure 12 - Charger & adapter The charger is only suitable for charging maintenance-free original EHP accumulators. The charger cannot be opened. If the device is damaged due to improper opening, the warranty is voided. Before putting the device into operation, make sure that sufficient ventilation is provided.
- Page 25 At the front of the crane scale is the charging socket, as well as the fuse holder (fuse 1A, 5 x 20mm.) The plug of the charger is inserted into the charging socket. Before disconnecting the charger cable, the plug lock must be pressed. Table 5 -Connecting the charger When the charger is connected, the status LED on the charger lights up.
- Page 26 • With delivery the accumulator is already charged for 8 hours and is immediately ready for use. • The accumulator should never be stored uncharged. • A completely discharged battery requires at least 12 hours of charging. • If the charging time is less than 12 hours, a longer charging period of approx. 24 hours is recommended for the next time.
- Page 27 The crane scale is equipped with an automatic switch-off function, which is deactivated by default. The automatic switch-off is activated using the buttons on the control panel, as described in Table 7. With the crane scale switched on, press the Power On and TEST buttons simultaneously to open the SETUP menu.

To exit the SETUP menu, press the Power-On and Power-Off buttons simultaneously or interrupt the power supply by disconnecting the round connectors at the accumulator.
- Page 29 Some parameters can be adjusted by the enduser. These adjustments can be useful, for example, if several EHP crane scales are operated at one location and the radio link might be disturbed by other machines. 88888 = Segment test LAH = Release-Firmware 12.21 =...
- Page 30 Confirm and close the parameter by pressing the ZERO key. The display alternately shows P13 and xx, where xx corresponds to the newly set channel number. Press the TEST key repeatedly until P14 appears in the display. Parameter P14 is used to set the scale number. Press the TARE key to activate the parameter.
- Page 31 Press the TARE key to activate the parameter. Confirm and close the parameter by pressing the ZERO key. Sto (Store) flashes several times on the display. This indicates that the parameter change has been successfully stored. To exit the SETUP menu, press the Power-On and Power-Off buttons simultaneously or interrupt the power supply by disconnecting the round connectors on the battery.
