INSTALLATION

Unpacking

Before beginning installation of your Digital Counting Scale, make certain the instrument has been received in good condition. Carefully remove the instrument from the shipping carton and inspect it for any evidence of damage (such as exterior dents or scratches) that may have taken place during shipment. Keep the carton and packing material for return shipment if it should become necessary. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to file all claims for any damages or loss incurred during transit. Refer to the Counting Scale Unpacking and Re-Packing Instructions, 8526-M246-01, for additional information.

Placement

Place the scale on a stable, vibration-free level surface away from direct sunlight and from any rapidly moving air source (heating/cooling vents, fans, etc.). Make certain the power cord and peripheral cables are routed out of the way of normal traffic.

CAUTION! DO NOT place the scale on any unstable cart, stand or table. The scale may fall causing injury to the operator, and seriously damage the unit, or proper operation of the scale may be inhibited.

Level Adjustment

Check to make certain the scale is level. The level indicator is located in the center of the weighbridge under the Stainless Steel commodity tray. Remove the commodity tray and observe the level bubble (see Figure No. 1). If the scale is not level (the bubble will not be centered), loosen the locking nut on all four (4) mounting feet (see Figure No. 2) and adjust them as required to center the bubble and attain a level scale. Once a level condition has been obtained, lock the mounting feet in place by tightening the adjustment nuts against the bottom of the scale.

Figure No. 1

Power Connection

The scale contains a power supply which converts the 110/120/220/240 VAC 50/60Hz wall supply to the power required by the scale circuitry. The power supply also contains the circuitry necessary to monitor and recharge the optional battery and is capable of operating the scale and recharging the battery simultaneously.

INSTALLATION, Cont.

AC Operation (Model 2240)

Plug the power cord into a grounded, polarized wall receptacle that supplies 110/120 VAC 50/60Hz power. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, make certain it is a 3-wire, fully grounded type using a minimum of 18 gauge wire. Be certain the power cord is routed out of the way of normal traffic. If only a ungrounded wall receptacle is available, it is the customer's responsibility to contact a qualified electrician to replace the ungrounded receptacle with a properly grounded polarized wall receptacle or have a grounding adapter properly installed.

CAUTION! To avoid electrical hazard, DO NOT under any circumstances, cut, remove, alter, or in any way bypass the power cord grounding prong.

AC Operation (Model 2241)

It is the responsibility of the customer to contact a qualified electrician to install the proper power cord connector. Plug the power cord into a grounded, polarized wall receptacle that supplies 220/240 VAC 50/60Hz power. Be certain the power cord is routed out of the way of normal traffic.

COMPONENTS and CONTROLS

Figure No. 2

PRECAUTIONS

Most scales are designed for an office type environment. The Digital Counting Scale is no exception to that rule. Such an environment is free of excessive dust and moisture and provides a comfortable temperature. In general, the scale will perform well over a temperature range of 32^ to 104^ F ( 0^ to +40^ C). In order to keep cooling requirements to a minimum, the scale should be placed out of direct sunlight and to provide adequate air circulation, keep the area around the scale clear. Make certain the scale is not directly in front of a heating or cooling vent. Such a location will subject the scale to sudden temperature changes and air currents which may result in unstable weight readings. Insure that the scale has good, clean AC power and is properly grounded. In areas subject to lightning strikes, additional protection to minimize lightning damage, such as surge suppressors, should be installed.

CAUTION! When in parallel runs, locate external Load Cell cables a minimum of 24 inches away from all AC wiring.

INTERCONNECTIONS

Remote Scale Connection

If a remote scale is used, it connects to the counting scale via a 9-pin "D" connector (REMOTE SCALE) located on the rear panel of the scale (see Figure No. 2). Before connecting your remote scale to the counting scale, verify that your scale cable is correctly wired. Refer to Figure No. 3 for pin identification of the remote scale connector.

The Digital Counting Scale ships from the factory configured for remote scales that do not use load cells with sense leads (4 wire load cells). The sense jumpers, J1 and J2 are installed for proper operation with 4 wire load cells. If your remote scale uses load cells with sense leads (6 wire load cells), jumpers J1 and J2, located on the printed circuit board (see Figure No. 5) should be placed on one pin only or disconnected.

Make certain that the connector retaining screws are used to hold the remote scale cable connector securely to the rear panel.

ANNUNCIATORS

The annunciators are turned on to indicate that the scale is in the mode corresponding to the annunciator label or that the status indicated by the label is active. It will be helpful to refer to the scale keyboard or Figure No. 6 when reading this section. The following describes the functions of each annunciators.

GROSS

The GROSS annunciator is turned on to show that the weight displayed is the gross weight. Gross weight may be displayed only when in the weight mode and a zero tare weight (or no tare weight) value is stored. Note that the GROSS annunciator is only active when the display is in the weight mode as shown by the illumination of the lb or kg annunciator.

TARE

The TARE annunciator is turned on to show that the scale is in a weight mode in which a known tare (container) weight may be keyed in via the numeric keypad, or in a mode that will display the current TARE weight.

NET

The NET annunciator is turned on to show that the weight displayed is the net weight. Net weight is determined by subtracting the stored tare weight from the gross or scale weight. The tare weight, usually the weight of the container, is entered using the tare key. Note that the NET annunciator is only active when a zero tare weight or tare weight value is stored and the display is in the weight mode as shown by the illumination of the lb or kg annunciator.

kg

The kg annunciator is turned on to show that the weight displayed is in kilograms. The lb/kg key may be used to select kilogram as the weighing units.

lb

The lb annunciator is turned on to show that the weight displayed is in pounds. The lb/kg key may be used to select pounds as the weighing units.

ZERO

The ZERO annunciator is turned on to show that the scale gross weight is within ±14 of a division of true zero (center-of-zero).

ANNUNCIATORS, Cont.

MOTION

The MOTION annunciator shows that the scale weight is unstable. An unstable weight reading may be caused by motion on the scale platform. Accumulation of piece counts, Zero and printing cannot take place when the MOTION annunciator is illuminated.

ID

The ID annunciator is used to show the status of the Identification Number mode. During operation, the ID annunciator will be ON (not flashing) to indicate that an ID number is active. When the scale is in the ID ADD, EDIT or DELETE modes of operation, the ID annunciator will be flashing.

ACCUM

The ACCUM annunciator shows that the display is in the Accumulator mode and that the value displayed is the current contents of the accumulator. Individual counts are adjusted via the (+) and (-) keys or optionally, any count may be entered using the numeric keypad. Note, a flashing ACCUM annunciator indicates that the current count has been added to the accumulator (count annunciator is also lit).

SAMPLE

The SAMPLE annunciator shows that the display is in the Sample mode and that the value displayed is the sample quantity requested in pieces.

COUNT

The COUNT annunciator shows that the display is in the Count mode and the value displayed is the count quantity of either the pieces removed from the scale platform (reverse counting) or the number of pieces added to the scale platform (normal counting). The count value is determined by dividing the net or gross weight (as selected) by the average piece weight.

INSUFFICIENT SAMPLE

The INSUFFICIENT SAMPLE annunciator is located between the display and the numeric keypad and shows that the sample selected is too small to calculate an accurate piece weight. If a counting function is continued by pressing the COUNT key a second time without increasing the sample size, the INSUFFICIENT SAMPLE annunciator will flash. Note that increasing the sample size by the amount indicated prior to pressing the COUNT key a second time, will turn off the INSUFFICIENT SAMPLE annunciator and result in an accurate piece weight.

BATTERY LOW

The BATTERY LOW annunciator is used with the battery operation and will flash slowly to indicate that the internal battery requires charging. If continued use furthers drains the battery, the annunciator will stop flashing and stay on continuously. No change in operation will occur until just before the battery voltage drops to a level where operation is affected. At this level, the scale will automatically turn itself off. Note that when the scale is charging the battery, BATTERY LOW annunciator will flash until charging has been completed.

REMOTE SCALE

The REMOTE SCALE annunciator is illuminated when the optional remote scale platform has been selected for use. The remote scale is selected by pressing the REMOTE SCALE key.

POWER ON

The Power Switch is located on the right side panel towards the front of the scale. Place the power switch in the on position. The scale will perform a brief lamp test. This test consists of illuminating all display segments and annunciator LED's for approximately three (3) seconds to allow the operator to make a visual verification that the display is operational. After completion of the lamp test, the scale will display the model number and software revision level, then the weight display will show zero weight, indicating the scale is ready for use.

SAMPLING AND COUNT ACCURACY

This section describes certain conditions that determine the accuracy of a parts counting operation and procedures you can follow to assure optimum performance of your Digital Counting Scale. Accurate counts depend upon the following conditions:

• Functional accuracy of the scale.
• Individual part weight variance
• Determination of parts sampling quantities.
• Variance of container weights in tare operations.

ACCURACY OF THE SCALE (Refer to Figure No. 9)

TYPICAL CONDITION ACCURACY - on a stable surface, applied load less than 70% of scale capacity, with no air currents or vibrations present, using parts with weight variance less than 1%; the total weight of all parts in the sample must be:

0.2% (1/500) of scale capacity for 99.5% accuracy 0.1% (1/1000) of scale capacity for 99% accuracy.

WORST CASE ACCURACY - on an unstable surface, applied load near 100% of scale capacity, with air currents or vibrations present, using parts with weight variance less than 1%; the total weight of all parts in the sample must be:

0.5% (1/200) of scale capacity for 99.5% accuracy

Counting accuracy will be greater than 99.5% when the total weight of all parts in the sample exceeds 0.5% of scale capacity.

Figure No. 9

SAMPLING AND COUNT ACCURACY, Cont.

INDIVIDUAL PART WEIGHT VARIANCE

For a given sample quantity, as the total weight of all parts in the sample increases, the average per-piece weight of the sample used becomes representative of the average per-piece weight of the group of parts to be counted. The errors caused by part weight variance are reduced with larger sample quantities. With knowledge of the typical percentage of variation in per-part weight of items to be counted, refer to the graph in Figure No. 10 to determine the sample quantity needed to obtain a desired percentage of counting accuracy.

NOTES:

• As your need for counting accuracy increases, the size of your samples must also increase.
  • As individual uniformity of your parts decreases, sample size must increase.
• Manual counting errors may occur if samples larger than necessary are used.
• Because of variation of individual container weights, be certain to "tare off" each container by placing the empty container on the scale and pressing the ZERO key before proceeding with the count operation.

% OF SAMPLE ACCURACY

Figure No. 10

1. Select the typical % of variation in the sample part-weight on the left-hand side of the graph.
2. Follow the selected curve to the right and upward to the \% of sample accuracy.
3. Read down vertically from the \% of accuracy to the corresponding minimum quantity of parts required for sampling to obtain the desired minimum \% of count accuracy.

ERROR AND STATUS DISPLAYS

The Digital Counting Scale is equipped with a diagnostic software program that tests various portions of the instrument's circuitry and verifies proper operation. Should a problem be detected, an error or status message will be displayed alerting the operator to that condition. The following lists these errors and status displays and their meaning:

Display Meaning

bELD	Indicates the scale is attempting to display a negative weight greater than 4 digits
ocRPocRP	Indicates the scale weight capacity or counting capacity (999,999) has been exceeded.
Full	Indicates there is no more space available for accumulator storage.
CALb	Indicates improper stored calibration data, calibration is necessary.
RRa	The analog to digital circuit has failed. Consult scale serviceman.

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE

The Digital Counting Scale has been designed to provide you with years of trouble-free operation. In spite of this, troubles sometimes happen. Before calling for service assistance you should make some initial checks to verify that a problem does exist. The following describes several types of symptoms along with suggested remedies.

Problem	Possible Solutions
Display does not turn on	AC Operation:Is the AC power cord fully inserted into the wall receptacle? Check wall receptacle for proper AC power.Try another electrical appliance in the same receptacle,does it work? Check the circuit breaker. Has there been power failure.Battery operation:Check if battery is installed and installed correctly. Is battery discharged - replace or recharge.
Incorrect weight displayed	Has the instrument been calibrated? Insure that the scale platform isn't touching an adjacent object. Have proper operation procedures been followed?
Scale will not display weight	Refer to Error and Status Display section and make certain that the 88 18 message is not displayed. If so, perform the calibration sequence.

CARE AND CLEANING

1. DO NOT submerge scale in water, pour or spray water directly on instrument.
2. DO NOT use acetone, thinner or other volatile solvents for cleaning.
3. DO NOT expose equipment to temperature extremes.
4. DO NOT place equipment in front of heating/cooling vents.
5. DO clean the indicator with a damp soft cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent.
6. DO remove power before cleaning with a damp cloth.
7. DO provide clean AC power and adequate protection against lightning damage.
8. DO keep the surroundings clear to provide clean and adequate air circulation.

The Digital Counting Scale can operate from a readily available Sealed Lead-Acid Camcorder type battery (not included). If you wish to operate the scale from a battery, you must first obtain and install a CAM-350 Type 12 volt 2000 mAh (2.0 Ah) battery before operations can begin. The battery is contained inside the instrument and is easy to install. Access is via a removable panel on the right side of the scale (See Figure No. 11). The scale will operate with a "fully charged" battery for approximately ten (10) hours and is easily recharged with the scale's built-in charger.

NOTE: The battery can be purchased from the Cardinal Scale Parts Department (p/n 6800-0018) or ordered from the following companies online:

• www.planetbattery.com www.ebatts.com
• www.discountcell.com www.mobilizenow.com

Installation

1. Unplug the AC power cord from the back of the scale.
2. Loosen the retaining thumbscrew securing the Battery Access Cover to the side of the scale and position the cover towards the rear of the scale, exposing the battery access opening.
3. Make certain the (+) plus polarity markings of the battery pack are positioned up (toward the platter).
4. While holding the cover open, slide the battery into the opening until you feel resistance and the battery in almost flush with the side panel of the scale (See Figure No. 11).
5. Close the Battery Access Cover and finger-tighten the thumbscrew, securing the battery in place.

4. Close the Battery Access Cover and finger-tighten the thumbscrew.

OPTIONAL BATTERY PACK OPERATION, Cont.

Discharging the Battery Pack

The battery pack is discharging when the scale is operated without the AC power cord plugged into a wall outlet. The Battery Low annunciator on the scale keypad serves to indicate the state of the battery pack.

When the scale is operating by battery power, and the battery pack has sufficient charge to power the scale, the Battery Low annunciator is off. If the battery becomes discharged while the scale is in use, the Battery Low annunciator will flash slowly to indicate the battery pack needs to be charged. When this occurs, the battery pack will have sufficient charge to power the scale for a short time, approximately (5) five minutes. If continued use further drains the battery pack, the Battery Low annunciator will stop flashing and stay on until the battery pack becomes severely discharged. When the battery pack is unable to power the scale, the scale will turn off automatically to prevent damaging the battery.

Due to the nature of batteries, shutting the scale off will cause the battery pack to recover slightly. If the scale is operated after turning itself off, it may run for a few minutes before the Battery Low annunciator begins to flash again. If the battery pack is too discharged to power the scale, it will not power up when the power switch is place in the ON position, but will illuminate the Battery Low annunciator for one minute to show the operator that a charge is needed before operations can continue.

If the battery pack has become severely discharged, the scale may not respond at all when turned on. This is a safety feature to prevent the scale from being powered up when the battery voltage is excessively low. Plug the scale into the AC wall outlet to charge the battery pack.

Charging the Battery Pack

The battery pack can be recharged with the built-in charger in the scale. The charger in the scale is a dual-level float charger. The first level does most of the charging rapidly, while the second level adds the remaining charge gradually. This type of charge profile greatly prolongs the life of the battery pack. Due to the sophisticated nature of the charger the battery pack can be left connected to the charge indefinitely, without risk of damage.

When the battery pack installed in a scale needs to be charged, simply plug the AC power cord into a wall outlet and charging will begin. Note that operating the scale during charging only minimally affects the charge time of the battery pack. The scale can operate at a 100% duty cycle and will only prolong the charge time by less than 20%. Note too that charge time is dependent on the depth of the discharge and will vary from one application to the next, but will typically not exceed 10 hours even with the scale turned on.

While the battery pack is charging, the Battery Low annunciator will flash. It will continue to flash until the battery is fully charged. Upon reaching full charge, the annunciator will turn off. This gives the operator a visible indication of the charging status of the battery. Note that the Battery Low annunciator is only on when the scale is on. If the battery pack is charged with the scale off, the scale must be turned on to determine status of the battery.

OPTIONAL BATTERY PACK OPERATION, Cont.

Optimum Battery Pack Performance

The life of the battery pack depends greatly on the duty cycle of the scale, depth of discharge and operating temperature. The battery pack will normally provide eight (8) hours of continuous operation over an operating range of 14^ to 104^ F ( -10^ to +40^ C). Several steps can be taken to optimize the performance and life of the battery pack.

1. Enable the Auto Shut-Off feature of the scale by entering a 1 (YES) when the scale prompts for Auto Off during Setup. (Refer to the Setup and Calibration section for an explanation of the setup feature). This selection will cause the scale to shut itself off after the period of inactivity selected in setup, thus preserving the battery pack.
2. If possible, plug the AC power cord into a wall outlet after each work shift to allow the battery pack to recharge. This will minimize the depth of discharge and greatly increase the number of cycles the battery pack can undergo.
3. If conditions permit, avoid charging and discharging the battery pack in extreme cold. Due to the chemistry of batteries, low temperatures decrease the capacity of the battery pack significantly causing a greater depth of discharge at colder temperatures than at room temperature. The battery pack will function without problems at temperatures as low as 14^ F ( -10^ C) but will not last as many cycles as it would at room temperature.
4. Avoid storing the battery pack after discharging. If the battery pack is to be left for several days or more, make certain that it is charged before storage. The optimum environment for batteries is to charge while stored. The type of charger used in the scale will not damage batteries in any way even if the battery pack is left charging indefinitely.
