4. SETTING UP 4-1. Setting up your balance 1. Place the weighing pan on the main unit as shown in “2. UNPACKING”. 2. Adjust the level of the balance using the leveling feet. Use the spirit level to confirm. The bubble should be in the center of the circle. 3.
Remove batteries when the balance is not to be used for a long time. They may leak and cause damage to the balance. Damage due to battery leakage is not covered by the warranty. Installing batteries 1. Turn off the balance and disconnect the AC adapter if used. 2.
5. OPERATION 5-1. Turn the power ON and OFF 1. Press the ON:OFF key to turn the power ON. STABLE Weighing units ZERO All of the symbols are displayed as shown above. (About units: Only the units available will be displayed.) The display turns off except for a weighing unit and the decimal point.
5-3. Units The most common unit of weight used around the world is the gram, but there is often a need to shift to alternative units specific to the country where the balance is used or to select modes such as counting or percent. The units and the order they appear in the display are as follows: Pound Ounce (avoir)
5-4. Selecting a weighing unit Press the UNITS key to select a unit. The following sections are a description of the Each pressing switches the three common units: g (gram mode), pcs (counting units available in the order described on the previous mode), and % (percent mode).
5-6. Counting mode (pcs) Weighs the sample pieces and calculate its unit weight. Using the sample unit weight, the scale counts the number of parts or items. As for the minimum unit weight acceptable, see the function setting “Umin”. Selecting the counting mode 1.
9. The balance re-calculates the unit weight while the ACAI indicator is blinking. Do not touch the balance or samples on the pan until the ACAI indicator turns off. 10. Counting accuracy is improved when the ACAI indicator turns off. Each time the above operation is performed, a more accurate unit weight will be obtained.
= the smallest display division. e.g.: 4d = four display divisions The upper limit and lower limit numerical values are common to each of the weighing, counting and percent mode. The example for EJ-120/200/300/410/610 is as follows. Upper limit value “001010”: “10.10g” “1010pcs” “101.0%”...

7. CALIBRATION This function adjusts the balance for accurate weighing. Perform a calibration in the following cases. Calibration (CAL) switch When the balance is first used. When the balance has been moved. For regular calibration. Calibration (CAL) switch cover 7-1. Calibration using a weight Prepare the calibration weight (sold separately) in advance.

7-2. Gravity acceleration correction When the balance is first used or has been moved to a different place, it should be calibrated using a calibration weight. But if the calibration weight cannot be prepared, the gravity acceleration correction will compensate the balance. Change the gravity acceleration value of the balance to the value of the area where the balance will be used.
8. FUNCTIONS 8-1. Key operation Cancels the operation and turns off the balance. Item key Selects a class and an item. In the weighing mode, press and hold the key to enter the function setting mode. Enter key Proceeds to the selected class. Stores the settings per class and goes to the next class.

Data format Header Data Unit Terminator (“ ” shows a space.) Separator There are four types of headers: ST : Stable weighing data (including % data) QT : Stable counting data US : Unstable weighing data (including count and %) OL : Out of weighing range (Over) The data is normally 9 digits including a decimal point and a sign.
Key mode Set the function “prt 1, 2 or 3”. When the PRINT key is pressed while the weighing data is stable (the STABLE indicator is on), the balance transmits the data. When the data is transmitted, the display will blink one time. Auto-print mode A Set the function “prt 2”.
9-3. EJ-07 / EJ-08 Underhook By attaching the underhook to the bottom of the balance, large objects that are difficult to load on the weighing pan can be weighed, and the density (specific gravity) of objects may be measured. Refer to the “9-6. EJ-13 Density Determination Kit” for the information about the density measurement.
9-6. EJ-13 Density Determination Kit Using this option and calculation Fixing frame Weighing pan program, the balance can determine the density (specific gravity) of a sample. EJ-13 Installation Push the fixing frame out, and remove the weighing pan. Attach the beaker stand to the balance and fit the pan stand to the pan support of the balance.

10. ID NUMBER AND GLP The ID number is used to identify the balance when Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) is used. The ID number is held in memory even if power to the balance is switched off. The following GLP data is transmitted to a printer or a computer using the optional RS-232C interface.
10-2. Output example To print the GLP report, set the function “info 1” and use MODE 3 of the printer AD-8121B. To output the GLP report to a personal computer, set the function “info 2”. Data format for “calibration report” Perform calibration using a weight.
“Title block” and “End block” When a weight value is recorded as the GLP data, “Title block” and “End block” are added at a group of weight values in the GLP report. To output the GLP report to the printer AD-8121B , use MODE 3 of it. 1.
