    4. SETTING UP 4-1. Attaching a display pod to the base (FG-KAL and FG-KAM) 1. First, remove the 4 screws from the bottom of the display column. Screws 2. Set the display column to the base by pulling the cable into the base.

  • Page 9: Power Source

    Cautions for installing the scale Consider the following conditions to get the most out of your scale. ? Install the scale where the temperature and relative humidity is stable. There is no draft and a stable power source is available. ? Install the scale on a solid and level surface.

  • Page 10: Basic Operation

    5. BASIC OPERATION 5-1. Turning the power ON and OFF 1. Press the ON/OFF switch to turn the power ON. All the display symbols are displayed and the scale waits for the weighing data to become stable. (Only the units available illuminate.) After the weighing value internally becomes stable, the display turns off for a moment and zero is shown with the ZERO indicator (power-on zero).

  • Page 11: Weight Display Resolution

    6. Remove the object from the weighing pan. ? The RE-ZERO switch will zero the scale if the weight is within ±2% of the weighing capacity (kg) around the power-on zero point. The ZERO indicator ? turns on. When the weight exceeds +2% of the weighing capacity (kg), it will be subtracted to zero as a tare weight.

  • Page 12: Counting Mode

    6. COUNTING MODE Determines a unit weight (the weight of one piece) from sample pieces, and calculates how many pieces on the weighing pan using the unit weight. 1. Press the MODE switch to select “pcs”. (“pcs” = pieces) ZERO ? 2.

  • Page 13: Comparator

    7. COMPARATOR The results of the comparison are indicated by HI, OK or LO on the display. The formula to compare is as follows: LO < Lower limit value = OK = Upper limit value < HI Operating conditions (see the “Function list F6”): F6-0: No comparison (comparator function disabled).

  • Page 14: Calibration

    8. CALIBRATION This function adjusts the scale for accurate weighing. Calibrate the scale in the following cases. ? When the scale is first used. ? When the scale has bee moved. ? When the ambient environment has Connector changed. ? For regular calibration. Lock screw Loose the lock screws on the rear side of Calibration (CAL) switch...

  • Page 18: Options

    10. OPTIONS The following options are available for the FG series: ? OP-23 (FG-23) RS-232C serial interface ? OP-24 (FG-24) RS-232C serial interface and Comparator relay output ? OP-23 and OP-24 cannot be used together. 10-1. Installation of OP-23/OP-24 The OP-23/OP-24 has an interface board, an option panel and a DIN 8 pin connector. The option panel and DIN connector are common to both options.

  • Page 19: Rs-232C Serial Interface

    10-2. OP-23 RS-232C serial interface This interface allows FG series to be connected with a multi-function printer or a personal computer. ? The RS-232C interface has the following four modes. Stream mode Outputs data continuously. Command mode Controls the scale using commands from a computer. Print switch mode Outputs data by pressing the PRINT switch..

There are 4 types of headers: ST : Stable weighing data QT : Stable counting data US : Unstable weighing data (including counting data) OL : Out of weighing range (Over)
  • Page 21 Data output mode ? Stream mode Function setting “F5-0” The scale outputs the current display data. The data-update rate is approximately 10 times per second. This rate is the same as the display-update. The scale does not output data while it is in setting mode. ? Print switch mode Function setting “F5-2”...

  • Page 22: Rs-232C Serial Interface And Comparator Relay Output

    Reply to the command When the “F8-0” is selected, the scale reacts to the received command as follows. ? For the “Q” command, the scale will send the data. ? For the “Z” and “T” commands, the scale will send the same code as a reply after executing the command.

  • Page 23: Maintenance

    11. MAINTENANCE 11-1. Notes on maintenance ? Do not disassemble the scale. Contact your local A&D dealer if your scale needs service or repair. ? Please use the original packaging for transportation. ? Do not use organic solvents to clean the scale. Use a warm lint free cloth dampened with a mild detergent.
