Remote Scale Interface - A&D FC-5000Si Instruction Manual

13-5. OP-05 Remote Scale Interface
A two-scale system using the scale is possible by installing OP-05 and connecting a
remote scale. You can use any load cell platform that meets the conditions in this section.
OP-05 Installation
1. Disconnect the AC adapter from the scale.
2. Remove the two screws and panel
covering the Remote scale slot.
3. Connect the connector in the scale to the
OP-05 unit.
4. Secure the OP-05 unit using the screws
removed in the step 2 above.
If you are not using the remote scale for the
moment, attach the protective screw cap to
the remote scale connector.
Notes on Using the Remote Scale
To get a highly accurate counting unit weight, use the main scale to register the unit
weight and use ACAI feature. After registration, switch to the remote scale to count.
If f-01-03 is set at "1", then the scale will automatically switch to the remote scale
after the unit weight (by sample pieces) is registered by the main scale.
Pressing the SAMPLE key will always return to the main scale.
Be aware that both the main and remote scales have separate tare values. So, if
you want to use a tare container on both, it must be tared on both.
F-Function f-01-06 can be set so the remote scale has an independent unit weight,
or is restricted to the same as the main scale.
