Arizona MAX-5000XL user manual Contrast Adjustment, Connecting a Printer

∙After power-up, the balance temperature will be stabilized for high temperature testing, which may take up to 2 hours. Wait for the balance temperature stability icon on the main screen to change from unstable to stable before performing the balance calibration or low moisture/solids/ash testing (<1%). See section 6.1 Balance Temperature Stability on page 64 for more information.

4.3. Contrast Adjustment

If necessary, adjust the display contrast controls for better viewing of the display. The left most soft key below the display has the word CONTRAST above it. Press this key and the display changes to instructions on setting contrast. Use the up and down arrows on the key pad until the display is acceptable and press the [ESC] key to save the setting and exit back to the Main Test Screen.

The LCD will darken after a few minutes of inactivity but will brighten with any key press.

4.4. Connecting a Printer

An optional graphic capable printer is available from AZI (pictured is printer example only). It connects to the parallel printer port at the rear of the instrument. The content and time of printing for each report can be custom configured from the menu system. These same reports can be directed to a computer through the RS-232 serial port at the back of the instrument.

∙Unpack the printer and cable. Load the paper according to the instructions in the printer manual. Plug the large end cable connector into its mating socket on the

printer, and the small end into its mating socket on the back of the MAX 5000XL. Plug the power cord into the printer, and into a GROUNDED power receptacle.

∙Turn the printer power on. (On some older printers, it is also necessary to place the printer

“On Line.”)

NOTE: The USB and AUX ports are not active at present. They will be implemented in later revisions to the instrument.
