3.4 LOCATING AND PROTECTING YOUR INDICATOR/SCALE In order to keeps your indicator functioning at its best we suggest that you do the following: Avoid extremes of temperature. Do not place in direct sunlight or near air conditioning vents. Make sure the unit is located on a strong table and free from vibration. Avoid unstable power sources. Do not use near large users of electricity such as welding equipment or large motors. Do not let the balance battery go flat –

4.0 BASIC OPERATION 4.1 TURNING ON THE SCALE 1) To turn on the AE‐401, press and hold the [O/I ] key. The indicator is ready to weigh and set to zero after 0‐9 self‐checking. 2) To switch off the power press the [O/I] key for 3 seconds. The panel displays battery level in percentage ‘bpt 99’, and then power is turned off. 4.2 ZEROING 1) To zero the display press the [Zero] key with nothing on the platform. 2) The Zero indicator will be on. 3) The [Zero] key will only function when

5.0 FUNCTIONS 5.1 ACCUMULATION AND PRINT The RS‐232 output will print one line for each weight added (press the [Print] key) and then print a total of all the weights stored into memory (press the [M+/Print] key). 1) Place a weight on the platform. Press the [Print] key once to print current weight; the initial number 1, 2 3 etc. on printing sheet refers to the item number . The scale must return to zero between each weighing for the next weighing to be accepted. 2) Pre

6.0 RS‐232 INTERFACE The RS‐232 interface can be used to record weighing information. The RS‐232 connector is a 9 pin d‐subminiature socket mounted on a short cable at the rear of the scale. COMMUNICATION CONNECTION: Pin 2: RXD RS‐232 input (not used) Pin 3: TXD RS‐232 output Pin 5: GND OUTPUT FORMATS: (n=item number, w= the weight, u=units) Continuous output: 14 ASCII Characters, leading zeros are spaces denoted by “_” + w w w w . w w w u u 1 2

8.1 SCALE DIVISION Either ‘d1 X.XXX’ or ‘d2 X.XXX’ will display.’d1’ is the division for single range display. (From 0.0001~50),‘d2’ is the smaller division for the dual range display. (From 0.0001~50). Example: For a 60kg scale, if ‘d1’ is set to 0.02kg, the scale will show a division of 0.02kg from 0kg to 60kg. If ‘d2’ is set to 0.005kg, the scale will show a division of 0.005kg from 0kg to 30kg and show a division of 0.01kg from 30kg to 60kg. See table 1. 1. Press [M+ Pr

8.3 ZERO RANGE / ZERO TRACKING / WEIGHT UNIT SETUP The parameter ‘Ut ABCD’ will allow settings for initial zero range, auto zero range, the secondary weighing unit and the primary weighing unit. The ‘ ABCD’ are 4 numbers that describe the operation when they are set as shown below. Initial Zero range = A 1) ‘Ut ABCD’ will be displayed. 2) The initial zero range (A value) allowed when power is first turned on, 1 to 9 mean 10% to 90% of maximum. 0 means do not set the initial zero. 3
