1.0 Precaution before Using the Scale 1.1 Environment The scale should always be used for its intended use (see www.kilotech.com) and its intended capacity. This scale is not protected against water; DO NOT spray with liquids as this could damage the electronics or could cause serious injury. To clean the scale, wipe it with a soft humid cloth and if necessary, use a non-abrasive household cleaner. The scale should always be used in an environment, which is free from excessive air currents, corrosives, vibration, and temperature or humidity extremes. These factors will affect displayed weight reading. DO NOT install the scale: l Next to open windows or doors causing drafts or rapid temperature changes. l Near air conditioning or heating vents. l Near vibrating, rotating or reciprocating equipment. l Near magnetic fields or equipment that generates magnetic fields. l On an unstable work surface l In a dusty environment l In direct sunlight. 3
1.2 Protection in the transportation Before the initial use, please refer to the following drawing to take off the protection screw. When packing the scale for transportation, install the protection screw on the scale in order to avoid any damage to sensitive components. 1.3 Leveling the Scale The scale is equipped with a level indicator on the left bottom side of the front panel and four adjustable leveling feet. Adjust the leveling feet until the bubble appears in the center circle of the indicator. Then lock the feet in place using the lock nuts. Repeat this procedure each time the scale is moved to a new location. 1.4 Turn on Scale Do not turn on scale with anything on the platform. The switch is located on the right side of the scale. The scale will start to count down from nine to zero and will display the max capacity of the scale in the display. The scale is then ready for use. Allow the scale15-30 minutes to warm up prior to use. 4
2.0 Explanation of Display Symbols LCD Display Meaning of the Symbols (Zero): Scale is in ZERO mode. NET: Scale is in TARE mode. : Low Voltage (Stable): Scale is in stable mode. kg/ lb: Indicates the current measuring units in weighing mode. 5
3.0 Keypad Functions Button Zero/Enter Function Zero the scale Accepts the current setting on the display. Move the settings backward in CAL parameter settings Move the settings forward in CAL parameter settings Select the options in settings Select the options in settings 4.0 Operations Turn on the scale; the scale will be in the weighing mode. Zero Function If the zero shifts during operation, press the ZERO/ENTER key to set it to zero. The Zero function is only active over a ±2%. Of capacity range. EXAMPLE: If you are using a KRS-SWP3 (3kg) scale, 2% x 3kg = 60g. If the scale is NOT in TARE mode AND platter is empty BUT the scale indicator reads between -60g and +60g, press the ZERO/ENTER key to reset the scale to zero. 6
5.0 Scale Parameters Setting Press and ZERO/ENTER key at the same time in weighing or counting mode to enter into parameters setting. 5.1 Backlight type Press or to set the backlight type to be bl. 1, bl. 2 or bl. 3. Please refer to the following. Backlight type bl. 1 bl. 2 bl.3 Description Automatic backlight Backlight is always on Backlight is off Press ZERO/ENTER key to confirm and return to next setting. 5.2 Auto Shut. off time Press or to set the auto shut. off time to be 0, 2, 5 or 8. Auto shut. off time Description A.OFF 0 The auto shut. off function is unavailable A.OFF 2 A.OFF 5 A.OFF 8 The scale will shut off automatically in 2 minutes The scale will shut off automatically in 5 minutes The scale will shut off automatically in 8 minutes Note: The auto off has been set to 0 on the KRS-SWP. The scale will shut off automatically only when the scale is unloaded and without any key being pressed. Press ZERO/ENTER key to confirm and exit from the parameter setting mode. 7
6.0 Power Supply & Battery Operation POWER SUPPLY DC 12V/1A 7.0 Error message During the initial power-on testing it is possible the scale may show error message. The meaning of the error messages is described below. Error codes Possible causes Remedy E1 EPROM data lose. Recalibrate the scale. E2 --OL-- The initial zero is outside the range of the factory setting for zero. Load exceeds scale capacity. 1. Check if there is something on the pan or something touches the top body when switch on the scale, move the load and switch on again. 2. Recalibrate the scale. Reduce the load on the pan. ------ System is busy. Just wait. LOBAT OFF Low voltage Change adaptor. If the error message is still displayed after above solutions have been tried, contact your dealer for further support. 8
