  • Page 13 Stability mark. When the current weight value is not changing, this mark is displayed. The reading may now be taken. Zero point mark. With nothing on the pan and pressing the switch, this mark is displayed. The zero point is the ZERO starting point to weighing.
  • Page 14 Example:-. Display of the counting mode. This mode uses the registered unit mass, counts the amount of articles on the pan. The unit is PCS. Example:- Storing the unit mass in the counting mode. This is a display of zero point for counting mode and uses 20 pieces for the unit mass registration.
  • Page 15 Calibration error. Means “Calibration mass is too heavy”. Check the base unit and weighing pan. Weighed value is unstable due to drift, vibration etc. when turning on the scale. Check around the weighing pan. Check the connection of load cell cable. Remove everything from the weighing pan.
  • Page 16 Set switch. Can be used to turn the comparator on/off. (Refer to f6 ) Counting mode, it is used to enter the mode to store the unit mass. Percentage mode, it is used to enter the mode to store the 100% mass.
  • Page 17 7.1.1 Type V or Type L with AC adaptor Step 1 Connect the scale to a ground point. Step 2 Ensure that the pan is empty. Step 3 Confirm that local voltage and receptacle type fit your scale. Step 4 The scale turns on/off using the switch alternately.
  • Page 18: Type L With Batteries

    7.1.2 Type L with Batteries Step 1 Install six new batteries. Refer to “5.1. Installing the batteries for Type L”. Step 2 Ensure that the pan is empty. Step 3 The scale turns on/off using the switch alternately. ON/OFF Step 4 Check the accuracy of weighing. If you calibrate the scale, perform it after warming up the scale for 30 minutes.
  • Page 19 The “Tare” is used to cancel the mass of a container, receptacle, case, bag, etc. which is put on the pan to contain the item to be weighed. Caution The tare reduces the available weighing range. The current tare value is reset by pressing the ZERO switch or turning the scale off.
  • Page 20 This is the function to select a weighing range. The mass value is displayed within a selected range. There is the automatic range (f2 0) and manual range (f2 1) using the RANGE switch.

  • Page 26 This function counts the number of weighed items, calculates the total mass value and can display the number and accumulated mass value. It is necessary to set the parameters of the “accumulation function ( f8 )” in the function table in advance to use this function. It is necessary to set the parameters of the “print mode ( f9 )”...
  • Page 27 Function table Meaning & Purpose f8 4 When the display is a stable value, the scale accumulates the data automatically. The next accumulation can be performed after the display returns to near-zero. Used for recording the number and mass of articles removed from the pan.
  • Page 28 Example 1 Weighing each article, the scale makes the accumulation according to f8 3 . Step 1 If accumulation has previously been used press the switch to display MODE Step 2 Press the switch to reset the accumulation data. ZERO Step 3 Return to the kg mode using the switch.
  • Page 29 This function compares a display value with the upper limit (HI) and the lower limit (LO) and displays these results. It is necessary to set the “comparator function ( f6 0 ~ f6 7 )” parameters, upper limit value (HI) and lower limit value (LO) in the function table, in advance to use this function. It is necessary to install option OP-03 or OP-04, if you use the relay output of the comparator.
  • Page 30 Step 1 Turn off the display. Press the switch while the switch is ON/OFF ZERO pressed and held. The function table is displayed. Step 2 Press the switch to display an item of the ENTER accumulation function ( Step 3 Select a parameter of the comparator function f6 0 f6 7 ) with the...

  • Page 32 Example 1 This example is set as follows: f6 3 Function table (If the current display value is not near-zero, the scale compares the display value with the upper limit value and the lower limit value immediately.) Upper limit value (HI) 7.000kg Lower limit value (LO) 6.500kg...
  • Page 33 This function changes the scale to a filling machine which sub-divides a bulk product,e.g. grain, into loads of predetermined and virtually constant mass. It is necessary to set the parameter of the “comparator function ( f6 9 )”, “ full/dribble batch sub-function ( f10 0 ~ f10 3 )”...
  • Page 34 Caution The comparison of the full/dribble batch function is not reversible (One way se- quence). If the display value becomes less than the final value after the value reached a predetermined target value, neither HI or LO is on. The parameters of the upper limit value (HI) and the final value (HI) use the same memory.
  • Page 35 Step 1 Turn off the display. Press the switch while the switch ON/OFF ZERO is pressed and held. The function table is displayed. Step 2 Press the switch to display an item of ENTER the comparator function ( f6 ). Step 3 Select a parameter of the full/dribble batch function ( f6 9 ) with the ^ switch.
  • Page 36 Step 8 Press the switch to display the HI, MODE flashing, (of the final value). Step 9 Set the final value using the following switches:- ^ switch Selecting the value of a digit. < switch Selecting a digit. Step 10 Press the switch to store the new ENTER...
  • Page 37 This function compares a display value with the final value, preliminary value and zero band for the full/dribble batch function. The result is indicated to zero band (LO indicator), full flow (HI indicator) and dribble flow (OK indicator). Even if a weighing value increases and decreases this function continues to compare.
  • Page 38 Caution The parameters of the upper limit value (HI) and a final value (HI) use the same memory. The parameters of the lower limit value (LO) and the zero band (LO) use the same memory. The upper/lower comparator function, the simple batch function and the full/dribble batch function cannot be used at the same time because these parameters use common memory.
  • Page 39 Step 6 Press the MODE switch to display the blinking HI (of the final value). Step 7 Set the final value using the following switches. switch Selecting the value of a digit. < switch Selecting a digit. Step 8 Press the switch to store the new ENTER parameter and display the blinking OK...
  • Page 40: Calibration (Adjusting The Scale)

    Use a calibration mass at least two thirds of the weighing capacity. Caution It is necessary to calibrate the HV-G series using a mass of the OIML class M1 or equivalent. Periodically check the accuracy of weighing. Calibrate the scale, if it is moved to another location or the environment has changed.
