Automatic Zero Maintenance

The scale’s software constantly monitors and adjusts the Zero point as long as the deviation is within acceptable limits1, while compensating for any debris accumulation or removal. During power-up, the scale automatically re-zeros after verifying that all subsystems are functional. Addition- ally, the scale may be manually “zeroed” by pushing the Scale Zero Push Button located on the top of the vertical enclosure.

Warm-Up Time

There are two pertinent warm-up times that apply to the scanner or scanning -scale:

The two warm-up periods can be performed concurrently, thereby reducing the total required warm-up time to 60 minutes.

NOTEThermal Equilibrium

When the unit is moved from a cooler temperature (such as a storage area) to a warmer environment (such as a checkstand location), 60 minutes must be allowed to acclimate the unit to ambient conditions prior to calibration or operation.

Power-up

Once installed and powered up, a warm-up time of 15 minutes must be allowed before calibrating or performing weighing operations.

User Configurable Warm-up

The user may configure the unit for a pre-programmed warm-up time that is activated every time the scanner is powered up. During this time, the scale is viewed by the POS terminal as off-line.

1.Acceptable limitis of deviation are set at -0.2 to +0.6 pounds (-0.078kg to 0.23kg), which is -0.67 to +2.0% of total capacity.
