4. SETTING UP 4-1. Setting up your balance 1. Place the weighing pan on the main unit as shown on the previous page. 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. -
Page 8: Operation
5. OPERATION 5-1. Turning the power ON and OFF 1. Press the ON/OFF key to turn the power ON. 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. The balance waits for the weight data to become stable, and zero will be displayed with the ZERO mark (power-on zero). -
Page 9: Units
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 MODE 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). -
Page 11: Weighing Range For The Ew-I Series
5-6. Weighing range for the EW-i series The EW-i series have three weighing ranges, and the display shows which range the weight value belongs to with the mark R1, R2 or R3. There is a function setting to select how the weighing range changes. Select from automatic range (rng 1), manual range (rng 0) or fixed range (rng 2 to 4). -
Page 12: Counting Mode (Pcs)
5-7. Counting mode (pcs) Determines the number of objects in a sample. Calculates the reading, using the basic sample unit weight, and determines how many pieces are contained. Selecting the counting mode 1. Press the MODE key to select :pieces) Storing the sample unit 2. -
Page 13: Percent Mode (%)
8. After setting the unit weight at step 6, add a few more samples on the pan. Then, the ACAI mark will turn on. (Add more than three pieces. The mark will not turn on for the number of samples beyond the ACAI range.) 9. -
Page 14: Comparator
6. COMPARATOR The results of the comparison are indicated by HI, OK or LO on the display. The comparison is as follows: LO < Lower limit value ≤ OK ≤ Upper limit value < HI Operating conditions (see the function setting “Cp”): No comparison (comparator function disabled). - Page 15 Entering the upper and lower limit values Cp Hi 6. With Cp Hi displayed, press the PRINT key. Enter the upper limit value using the following keys. SAMPLE key To select the digit blinking to change. RE-ZERO key To set the value of the digit 000000 selected.

Page 16: Calibration
7. CALIBRATION This function adjusts the balance for accurate weighing. Perform calibration in the following cases. When the balance is first used. When the balance has been moved. When the ambient environment has changed. For regular calibration. 7-1. Calibration using a weight Prepare a calibration weight (optional) before start. - Page 17 5. At step 3, pressing the PRINT key weighs the zero-point value. Do not touch the pan during Weighing pan weighing. When the zero calibration is completed, the display shows the calibration weight value. With nothing To perform the zero calibration only and finish the on the pan procedure, press the MODE key.

Page 18: Gravity Acceleration Correction
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. -

Page 24: Rs-232C Serial Interface
9. RS-232C SERIAL INTERFACE This interface allows the EK/EW-i series to be connected with a multifunction printer or a personal computer. The RS-232C interface has the following four modes. Stream mode Outputs data continuously. Key mode Outputs data by pressing the PRINT key. Auto-print mode Outputs data which meets the conditions of auto-print. -
Page 25: Data Format
9-2. Data format Header Data Unit Terminator (“ ” shows a space.) Separator There are four types of headers: ST : Stable weight data (including % data) QT : Stable counting data US : Unstable weight data (including count and %) OL : Out of weighing range (Over) The data is normally 9 digits including a decimal point and a sign. -
Page 26: Command Mode
Key mode Set the function “prt 1, 2 or 3”. When the PRINT key is pressed while the weight data is stable (the stability mark is on), the balance transmits the data. When the data is transmitted, the display will blink one time. -
