9) Do not insert your finger into the gap or holes in the scale. You may be injured. 10) The DP-6200 uses a liquid crystal display. If the LCD breaks and the liquid leaks from the LCD, do not touch it with your fingers.
The DP-6200 is not washdown unless the AC adaptor jack is sealed, or if the RS-232 option is installed. Remove the batteries when operating the scale with the AC adaptor. Use only the AC adaptor supplied or an adaptor of the same output characteristics.
Technical Manual III Calibration The DP-6200 can be setup to be calibrated with pound weights or with kilogram weights. Check the setting of system parameter 78 (see section IV - Changing the Scale Setup). 000 sets the scale to be calibrated with kilogram weights, 001 sets the 60 lb and 300 lb scales to be calibrated with pound weights, and 002 sets the 150 lb scale to be calibrated with pound weights.
DP-6200 Technical Manual IV Changing the Scale Setup Changing Parameters The scale setup is controlled by three groups of parameters that determine how the scale operates. These three groups are User Parameters, System Parameters and Factory Parameters. User Parameters (00 - 09) can be changed in both User Mode and System Mode. They are easily accessed, without breaking the seal or opening the indicator housing, and control functions such as the auto-off, RS-232 communications and whether the scale starts in metric or standard units.
