Do not use a water sprayer on the PPC-200 and do not use it in and extremely humid or dusty environment. 2) The PPC-200W is a washdown scale, but is not a submersible scale. Do not place the PPC-200W in water higher than the bottom of the housing. Do not spray water up into the underside of the PPC-200W. 3) Do not push the indicator or keys with sharp objects. They may break or puncture the switch membrane panel. 4) Use the specified power supply and choose a suitable environment. If you do not, the weight readings may be inaccurate and the scale may be damaged. 5) The scale is a sensitive weighing instrument, avoid physical shocks. If you drop something on the scale, overload the scale, step on the platform, or drop the scale, the scale may be damaged and lose accuracy. 6) If the scale becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, apply a little neutral detergent and then wipe the scale with a dry cloth. Do not use thinner, benzene, hot water, or chemical agents, all of which can cause deformation, discoloration, or deterioration of the scale. 7) Never remove the case. The fine adjustment section may be damaged and you may be injured by sharp edges on the internal parts. 8) Do not place the scale upside down on the scale platform. 9) When the low battery indicator appears, replace all six of the batteries. When installing the batteries, install them according to the polarity markings in the case (+, -). If the scale will not be used for a long period, remove the batteries. To keep the scale working efficiently 1) Place the scale on a flat stable surface that will support the scale and the load. 2) Do not place the scale in an area exposed to direct sunlight or to wind currents (i.e. - from an air conditioner, furnace, fan, etc.) otherwise the measurements will not be accurate. 3) Do not place the scale near machines that create vibrations or electromagnetic disturbance, such as microwave ovens, portable phones, or large motors. This will affect the accuracy. 4) The operating temperature range is from 5C to +35C (23F to 95F). Do not subject the scale to sudden temperature changes; allow the scale to adjust to the new temperature before use. 5) If the scale is sealed, do not break the seal. If you break the seal, the scale will not be considered legal for trade. In this case, contact your dealer. 6) Do not disassemble or modify the scale, you will void the warranty. Modified scales will not be legal for trade.

IV Changing the Scale Setup

Changing Parameters

The scale setup is controlled by three groups of parameters that determine how the scale operates. These three groups are User Parameters, System Parameters and Factory Parameters. User Parameters (00 - 09) can be changed in both User Mode and System Mode. They are easily accessed, without breaking the seal or opening the indicator housing, and control functions such as the auto-off, RS-232 communications and whether the scale starts in metric or standard units. The User Parameters are included in System Mode for the convenience of the technician. System Parameters (30 - 40) can be changed in System Mode. They control functions that the technician may need to change under unusual circumstances. Since these functions can alter the accuracy of the scale, the seal has to be broken to access System Mode through Test Mode. Factory Parameters (51 - 99) can be change in Factory Mode. They control functions that directly relate to the accuracy, capacity and divisions of the scale and are rarely changed outside of the factory. Factory Parameters are usually only changed if a different standard mode (pound, ounce or pound-ounce) is needed or if a different capacity load cell is installed. Since these functions can alter the accuracy of the scale, the seal has to be broken to access Factory Mode through Test Mode. Each parameter has two components, the parameter keyword and the parameter value. The first two digits are the keyword and determine which parameter is being changed. The last three digits are the value and determine what the selected parameter is being changed to.

Keyword Value While each mode is accessed differently, all modes use the same keys to select and change the parameter settings. To select the desired keyword, use the keys as follows: - increase the keyword by one + - decrease the keyword by one
To change a parameter value, use the keys as follows: - increase the value by one - decrease the value by one + + - increase the value by ten - decrease the value by ten
To save the last value changed it is necessary to advance to the next keyword before exiting the setup mode. Press and hold the key and press the key to exit System Mode or Factory
Mode and return to Test Mode. Press the
key to exit any setup or test mode.

User Mode

With the scale on, press the setup mode. Press the and

V Troubleshooting

The scale can check various functions automatically. When a problem is detected, the following messages will be displayed. Solutions are listed in order of decreasing probability and increasing complexity. The batteries are running low. When the batteries are running low, this indicator will come on. Replace all of the batteries with new ones. The batteries are low. When the batteries are too low for accurate operation, this indication will be displayed and the scale may automatically power off. The batteries must be replaced to use the scale. Weight out of range high. When the weighed value is 6 or more divisions heavier than the scales capacity this message will be displayed. Remove any excess weight from the scale platform. Calibrate the scale. Replace the logic board and/or load cell. Weight out of range low. When the weighed value is a few divisions below calibrated zero, this message will be displayed. It is usually displayed when the platform is removed or has something wedged under it. Place the platform on the platform support or remove any objects wedged under the platform. Calibrate the scale. Replace the logic board and/or load cell. Initial error on startup, high. When the initial weight is heavier than the permissible zeroing range and the key is pressed, this message will be displayed. Remove whatever is on the platform and press the key again. Calibrate the scale. Replace the logic board and/or load cell. Initial error on startup, low. When the initial weight is lighter than the permissible zeroing range and the key is pressed, this message will be displayed. It is usually displayed when the platform is removed or has something wedged under it. Place the platform on the platform support or remove any objects wedged under the platform, and press the key again. Calibrate the scale. Replace the logic board and/or load cell.
Weighing sensor error. When the weight detecting circuitry registers an error, this message will be displayed. Turn the power off and then on again. Calibrate the scale. Replace the load cell. Electronic circuitry error. When the operating circuitry registers an error, this message may be displayed. Turn the power off and then on again. Replace the logic board. Calibration points out of range error. Occurs after the scale is calibrated, but the value of the calibration points are outside the range of the software. Confirm that system parameter 78 is set correctly for the weights being used and the capacity of the scale. Verify that the correct weights, 1/2 capacity and full capacity, are being used. Make sure that nothing is restricting the motion of the platform, pressing against the platform or wedged between the upper and lower platform. Remove any sources of vibration or electromagnetic radiation (i.e. - cell phones, power cables, motors, compressors, etc.) Repeat the calibration procedure. Replace the logic board and/or load cell. Electromagnetic disturbance error. This indication is occasionally displayed due to strong static electricity and/or electromagnetic disturbance. Move the scale away from any sources of electromagnetic radiation (motors, generators, power cables, transmitters, etc.) Turn the power off and then on again. If an AC adapter is being used, try using a different power circuit or AC adapter. Replace the logic board.
