    Note: Power cannot be shared with the weighing instrument. Plug the AC adapters into both the weighing instrument and the AD-8922A. 9.1. Confirming the AD-8922A Software Version Before installing an option, confirm the AD-8922A software version. The software version is displayed as " x.xx" for approx. 1 second before entering the function setting mode.

The AD-8922A-01 can set the input terminal function to either the BUSY or the RE-ZERO input function by selecting that function. When set to the RE-ZERO input function, the AD-8922A transmits the RE-ZERO command to the weighing instrument, setting the weighing value to zero.
