1. INTENDED USE Scales of WPY/KTPS series together with KTP NET software constitute a multi-stand system (network). Each scale is an independent scale and information about the status of testing are sent in real time. The computer program allows to collect data in real time from every connected scale. The system allows to start test controls from scales or the computer level.
3. WARRANTY CONDITIONS A. RADWAG is obliged to repair or change those elements that appears to be faulty because of production and construction reason, B. Defining defects of unclear origin and outlining methods of elimination can be settled only in participation of a user and the manufacturer representatives, C.
D. Scale should be levelled by turning regulation feet. Levelling is correct if air bubble is situated in the central position: 4.2. WPY/KTPS/D2 scales A. Take the device out of the package, B. Put the scale on an even stiff ground, C.
E. Scale should be levelled by turning regulation feet. Levelling is correct if air bubble is situated in the central position: 5. SCALE CONSTRUCTION 5.1. Main dimensions 5.1.1. WPY/KTPS/C1 scales 5.1.2. WPY/KTPS/D2 scales...
