1. INTRODUCTION AND WARNINGS
This product represents the best solution for multi-function weighing applications, offering ease of use, high precision in
reading the weight and many functions to speed-up and simplify everyday work.
This manual provides an overview of the product’s potentials: through the configuration menu, you can adapt the product
functionality to the weighing application to be realised.
WARNINGS:
• Do not make repairs or replace electronic components of the instrument boards.
• Only use original spare parts.
• Any tampering with the equipment or use of non-original spare parts voids the warranty and relieves the
manufacturer of any liability.
• Before any installation or repair that involves access to electronic parts, turn off the device and disconnect
any source of power supply (battery, 230V network or other).
• Always use network power supply sources regulated within ± 10% of the rated voltage;
• In applications in connection with third parties, always follow the specifications given on the approval
decree of the equipment.
• Do not immerse in water.
• Do not wash with water jets (except versions with specific IP protection degree).
• Protect from direct rainfall (except versions with specific IP protection degree).
• Do not use aggressive cleaning solvents or substances.
• Do not install in potentially explosive environments.
• Earth connect any earth socket located on the equipment casing, using a cable with a diameter of at least
16 mm2.

10. FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Calibration
Can I change the maximum capacity without recalibrating?

Yes, you must change the parameters RANGE 1,2,3 (Q-1-4,5,6). (See page 35)
Can I change the division without recalibrating?

Yes, you must change the parameter diV (Q-1-2). (See page 35)
Can I change the position of the decimal point without recalibrating?

Yes, you must change the parameter deCim (Q-1-1) and the value of the calibration points via the pitch CAL.MAn (Q-5-6).
(See page 35 and 39)
Can I calibrate the instrument in “multi-division” mode?

Yes, through advanced configuration from PC with Dinitools program.
Communication
Scale doesn’t answer

• Check the good condition of the cable and that there are no failures (using a multimeter).
• Check that the PC communication port or of the device used is not compromised. If necessary, try with another device/PC
• Make sure to have connected the cable on the correct serial port.
• Check the configuration of the pitches Baud and bit. (See page 13)
• Temporarily activate the continuous communication and retry receiving the string. If the string has been received cor-
rectly, carefully check the syntax of the control sent, the communication time-outs and the presence of the terminator.
Generic
The scale does not switch on

• Check that the input voltage level to the mother board is correct.
• Try the forced power by inserting the “ON BOOT” jumper present on the mother board. If the indicator lights up, check
the correct operation of the keyboard, using the diagnostic menu diaG. (See page 33)
• Possible failure of the internal rechargeable battery (if present).
