1.0 INTRODUCTION • The ABK/AFK scales provides an accurate, fast and versatile general purpose weighing scales with parts counting, percent weighing and check-weighing functions. • The ABK/AFK has LEDs to indicate when a weight is below the low limit, between the limits or above the high limit next to the display. These can work in conjunction with an audible alarm for check weighing as well as LCD showing LO, OK and HI. • The ABK/AFK is supplied with a RS-232 bi-directiona

3.0 INSTALLATION 3.1 UNPACKING The ABK/AFK scales have already been adjusted to work with a platform and have been configured for this application. The platform and indicator have been calibrated as a pair and must be used together . 3.2 LOCATING • The scales should not be placed in a location that will reduce the accuracy. • Avoid extremes of temperature. Do not place in direct sunlight or near air conditioning vents. • Avoid unsuitable tables. The table or floor must b

3.3 SETTING UP THE SCALES • The pillar is attached to the base using a bracket that must be attached to the base frame first using the 4 bolts supplied. The pillar is secured to the bracket using 2 sets of screws. The cable from the base to the indicator module is run through the tube and taken out through the support at the top. Excess cable can be stored within the tube. • The ABK/AFK Series comes with a stainless steel platform packed separately. Place the platform in the bas

5.0 DISPLAYS The LCD display will show a value and a unit to the right of the digits. In addition the LED’s above the display will show when a weight is below or above check-weighing limits. Other symbols will show when a weight has been tared (NET) the scale is at zero and stable, if a value has been stored in memory or when the animal weighing function has been enabled. A battery symbols will show the state of charge of the internal battery. 11 | P a g e © Adam Equipm

6.0 OPERATION 6.1 ZEROING THE DISPLAY • You can press the [Z/T] key at any time to set the zero point. This will usually be necessary when the platform is empty. When the zero point is obtained the display will show an indicator for zero. • The scale has an automatic re-zeroing function to account for minor drifting or accumulation of material on the platform. However you may need to press the [Z/T] key to rezero the scale if small amounts of weight are shown when the platfor

• Press the [Z/T] key to tare the scale. The weight that was displayed is stored as the tare value and that value is subtracted from the display, leaving zero on the display. The “NET” indicator will be ON. As a product is added only the net weight of the product will be shown. The scale could be tared a second time if another type of product was to be added to the first one. Again only the weight that is added after taring will be displayed. • When the container is removed a negati

6.4 PARTS COUNTING If parts counting is enabled, See section 7.4, it is possible to count parts using a sample of the parts to determine average piece weight. • Before starting, tare the weight of any container that may be used, leaving the empty container on the scale. Place a known number of samples in the container, if used. The number should match the options for parts counting, i.e., 10, 20, 50, 100 or 200 pieces. • When the scale is showing weight, pressing the [Pcs/]

• Press the [Pcs/] key to return to normal weighing. Press the [Pcs/] key again to start counting a different sample. 6.5 CHECK-WEIGHING Check-weighing is a procedure to cause lamps to come on (and if enabled, an alarm to sound) when the weight on the scale meets or exceeds values stored in memory. The memory holds the last values for a high and a low limit when the power is turned off. The user can set either one limit or both as described below. See Section 7.1 for

BOTH LIMITS SET The display will show OK F3 bEP = bP InL . when the weight is The beeper will sound between the limits when the weight is between the limits, i.e. OK F3 bEP = bP OtL Beeper will sound if weight is outside the limits. LOW LIMIT SET The display will show LOW F3 bEP = bP InL . HIGH LIMIT is set to when the weight is less The beeper will be off zero than the Low Limit. Above when the weight is less the Low Limit the display than the Low Limit. will show OK
Résumé du contenu de la page N° 18
NOTE: Weight must be more than 20 scale divisions for check weighing to operate. Below 20 scale divisions the LED’s will not light and the beeper will not be on. The Check-weighing function can be set up during Weighing or Parts Counting by entering values as Low or/and High Limits keyed in by the user. The limits are displayed in kg (or Lb) or pcs respectively. Checkweighing during Parts Counting To disable the Check-Weighing function enter zero into both limits by pres

6.6 ACCUMULATED TOTAL • The scale can be set to accumulate manually by pressing the [Print/M+/Esc] key or automatically when a weight is removed from the scale. See the Section 7.3 for details of setting the Parameter “C3 PRM” and “C4 Aon”. The accumulation function is available when weighing or when counting parts. However the memory is cleared if the weighing units or functions are changed. • When the weight (or count) displayed is stored in memory the display will show “AC

6.7 PERCENT WEIGHING The scale can be set to perform percent weighing. See Section 7.2. The scale will use a mass on the platform as the 100% reference weight. If the platform is empty (or the scale is tared) then the user can input a reference weight using the keypad. • Press [Func/C]. The first option is “FunC 1”, press the [Func/C] key again display “FunC 2”. • Press the [Z/T] key. “P1 PCt” will be displayed. • Press [Z/T] again to enter percent weighing. The sc
