Weighing; Scale Sentry Tm Option - Datalogic Magellan 9800i Product Reference Manual

Introduction

Weighing

Specifications for scale capacity, settling time, minimum and maximum static weight, zeroing,
and warm-up time are given below. For more information regarding the topic:
Technique, refer to the
Rated Weight Capacity
The scale's operational weight capacity is:
• 30.00 pounds, displayed in 0.01 increments
• 15.000 kilograms
Minimum Weight
The minimum weight that can be accurately measured by the scale is 0.02 lb. (0.005 kg).
Maximum Static Weight (Overload)
A maximum static weight of 150 pounds (68 kg) can be sustained by the scale without incurring
damage or degrading performance.
Automatic Zero Maintenance
The scale's software constantly monitors and adjusts the Zero point as long as the deviation is
within acceptable limits
power-up, the scale automatically re-zeros after verifying that all subsystems are functional.
Additionally, the scale may be manually "zeroed" by pushing the Scale Zero Button located on
the control panel.
Scale Sentry Option
TM
The optional ScaleSentry feature monitors items placed on the platter to ensure they are not
overhanging and touching non-weighing surfaces. If the system's infrared (IR) beams sense
items encroaching past the sides of the weigh platter, the speaker will sound a unique tone and/
or the ScaleSentry LED indicator will illuminate to indicate a ScaleSentry error condition. A
scale transaction cannot be completed until the item(s) are repositioned to rest fully on the
platter (move them towards the center), clearing the condition. Reference

and details.
1. The scale can also be set at the factory for 9.99 kg max.
2. Acceptable limitis of deviation are set at -0.2 to +0.6 pounds (-0.078kg to 0.23kg), which is -0.67 to +2.0% of total capacity.
