Unpacking and Startup Plus Indicators: Wash-down applications Open the enclosure by removing the screws holding on the back plate. Carefully remove the back plate from the indicator. Remove the CPC connector and replace with the watertight Heyco bushing supplied and feed the load cell cable up to the terminal block.
Operational Features Automatic Zero-Tracking (AZT) - Maintains the system zero and is normally set to +/- 1/4 of the display resolution. Count/Weigh - Scale is capable of both counting and weighing functions. The count may be turned off on the 7600 if not needed. Four Selectable Sample Sizes - Four different sample sizes may be entered into the scale memory during programming.

Operational Features Push-Button Functions 7300 3-Key: Basic ZERO Button - Sets the scale to zero. UNITS Button - Used to switch the scale between the primary weighing unit, secondary weighing unit, and the count mode. PRINT Button - Transmits formatted print to any device connected to the RS-232 port.
Menu Access: Configuration and Calibration To access instrument configuration, calibration or to enable options, depress the “Zero” key for five seconds. The Audit Trail counters (“Pxxxx” and “Cxxxx”) are displayed first followed by access code request (“AC?”). The initial factory setting is “0000” which is entered “AC0000” and “Print”.

Toggled continuous output (The formatted print will be sent continuously after the PRINT button is pressed or an SRP command is received by the scale. Pressing the PRINT or sending SRP a second time will turn off the continuous output.) Status Character (May be used by a computer to determine the condition of the scale at any given moment.

COUNTING An electronic counting scale counts parts by knowing the weight of a single piece, dividing that into the total weight on the scale and displaying the result. With the 7600, this piece weight may be entered into the scale by one of two methods: FIRST: Counting out a "sample"...
NORMAL COUNTING - Keypad Piece Weight Entry If the individual weight of the parts being counted is known in advance the piece weight may be entered through the keypad. This eliminates the need for the sample set operation. (If the percent of error feature has been selected in programming, the scale will not calculate the percent of error when keypad entry of piece weight is used.) 1.

Counting by First Determining Error of Count (One-Switch Method using Automatic Sample Update) The percent error/accuracy of count can be updated by adding more items to the sample after the initial sample size is placed on the platform and the percent error/accuracy has been displayed.
Page 35
Normal Operation with Automatic Sample to Bulk Feature The second base option needs to be installed and calibrated for automatic sample to bulk to operate. Base one is always the sample base and base two is always the bulk base. 1.
