CONNECTING SEVERAL CELLS IN PARALLEL: Connect several cells in parallel by using - if necessary - a watertight junction box with terminal box. The cell connection extension cables must be shielded, led individually into their piping or conduit and laid as far as possible from the power cables (in case of 4-wire connections, use cables with 4x1 mm minimum cross-section).
LOAD CELL INPUT TEST (QUICK ACCESS) From the weight display, press ▲ for 3 seconds; the response signal of the load cells is displayed, expressed in mV with four decimals. LOAD CELL TESTING Load cell resistance measurement (use a digital multimeter): - Disconnect the load cells from the instrument and check that there is no moisture in the cell junction box caused by condensation or water infiltration.

TARE WEIGHT ZERO SETTING This menu may also be accessed directly from the weight display, holding down the key for 3 seconds. Perform this procedure after having set the THEORETICAL CALIBRATION data. Use this function to set to zero the weight of the empty system after commissioning and then later on to compensate zero variations due to the presence of product residues.
Example: for a system of maximum capacity 1000 kg and 1 kg division, two sample weights are available, one of 500 kg and the other one of 300 kg. Load both weights onto the system and correct the indicated weight to 800. Now remove the 300 kg weight, the system must show 500; remove the 500 kg weight, too;...
