TCM2 Counting Scale Instruction Manual Thank you for purchasing Model TCM2 Counting Scale. Please read all operating instructions carefully before using and note the following points: Avoid using in extreme heat, cold or wet and the environment which has intensive change in temperature, humidity and pressure.
4. Keys function Summary 0~9: numeric keys:Enter numerical data. CLEAR: Clear the input data and accumulated pieces. EXIT: When scale is not in normal weighing mode, EXIT key is used to exit and back to normal weighing mode. ENTER: Confirm the operation or save the data. ZERO: Set the zero point when scale is stable, zero range: power-on zero point ±5%FS.
5. Weighing Operation 5.1 Turn the power on and off 5.1.1 When the scale is off, press “ON/OFF” key to power on the scale. The self-test will run and the scale will give the zero reading. Now it is ready for weighing. 5.1.2 When the scale is beyond the zero point range after powering on (Calibration zero point±15%FS), the scale displays “Err04”or“Err05”.

exit this mode and return back to the normal weighing and counting mode. 5.10.5 Set tare weight: The PIECE WEIGHT window shows “Sample” or “Input”, which means the tare weight is unknown (Sample) or known (Input), the COUNT window shows “tar.mod” (set getting tare weight mode). 5.10.6 Use 0~9 key to choose unknown or known tare weight, press ENTER key to confirm and go to the next step (STEP5.10.6.1 or STEP5.10.6.2), or press EXIT key to exit this mode and return back to the normal weighing and counting mode.

5.11 Recall information from memory 5.11.1 Under the normal weighing mode, press “RC.UTP” to enter this mode,then “RC.UTP” will be displayed in WEIGHT window (This means the scale is ready to recall the stored piece weight and tare weight), the COUNT window will display “Addr.”...
key to go to step 6.11. To continue third point calibration, place a standard weight (more than 10%FS weight, and larger than the weight used on LoAd2) on the center of the scale platter, press ENTER to confirm the standard weight calibration after the scale is stable and the unit indicator stops flashing, if the weight is <= LoAd2 , it will go to step 6.11 6.10 The display of the WEIGHT window remains the same, the PIECE WEIGHT window displays “InP.Ld”(Input Load Weight),the COUNT window displays 0,use 0-9 numerical key or Clear key to input loaded standard...
10. The details about RS232 communication 10.1 Under the normal working mode, press and hold ON/OFF and 4 key at the same time until the WEIGHT window shows “SetuP”. Under this mode, you can set the RS232 baud rate, data format and communication format.
13.The second Platform Parameters setting 13.1 Under the normal working mode, press and hold TARE and ON/OFF key for more than 3s to enter this mode. In this mode, you can set parameters about the second platform. 13.2 The weight window displays “SETUP”, the PIECE WEIGHT window display “M.UNIT” (Main weight Unit) and the COUNT window display “kg/lb”.
16. Messages & Symbols 16.1 Err01 Weight signal is too large 16.2 Err02 No proper data can be displayed 16.3 Err03 Weight signal is too small 16.4 Err04 Zero point is over the setting range 16.5 Err05 Zero point is below the setting range EEPROM can’t be accessed 16.6 Err10...
17. Trouble Shooting SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSE REMEDY Reduce load on scale until weight Weight reading exceeds Overload limit, value can be displayed. Use a more Err01 or The weight value cannot be displayed appropriate unit of measure. Re-set in the current unit of measure some parameters about units Install platform on scale.
