LEVELING
With platter off, level the scale by adjusting the feet until the scale is stable and the bubble is centered inside the reference circle. Level is located on the display bracket. (See Figure 1)
PC AND POWER CONNECTIONS
- Choose one method of connecting the scale to your PC: USB or RS232. (See Figure 2)
- Preferred method is USB if supported in carrier or shipping software.
- USB connection must be used if scale is to communicate with multiple carrier or shipping software programs.CAUTION! DO NOT connect both USB and RS232 cables at the same time.
- Turn the scale over and make the PC connections as follows:
USB
- Plug small end of USB cable into the scale connector port marked “USB.” (See Figure 3)
- Plug large end of the USB cable into the PC. A direct connection to the computer is required. Do not use a USB hub.NOTE: The scale is adequately powered by the USB port so the Power Supply is not needed with a USB connection.
RS232
- Plug the small end of the RS232 cable into the scale connector port marked “RS232.” Connect the large end of the RS232 cable into the PC port (generally labeled COM 1, COM A or IOIOI). (See Figure 4)
- Plug large end of the USB cable into the power supply. Plug small end into USB connector. Plug power supply into AC outlet.
NOTE: If you plugged the RS232 cable into the incorrect PC port, turn off the computer, then change ports and restart your computer.
