2. Name and type of the instrument The EW Series weighing instrument is a self-indicating weighing scale of Class III with two weighing ranges, an external AC mains adapter, and an internal rechargeable battery. 3. The description of Construction and Function 3.1 Construction 3.1.1 Enclosure The scale is housed in a plastic enclosure. One display is placed on the front together with keyboard and another one is placed on the back. It is intended to be used in shops as well as industrial environment. A level indicator is built into the enclosure near the keyboard and four adjustable leveling feet are located at the bottom.
3.1.2 Keys The scale contains 5 keys in one keyboard to control the functions and an On/Off key located at the right side of the scale. Keypad Function
Indicated symbols Stable/ : The scale is in stable mode Zero/ : The scale is in zero mode. NET: The scale is in tare mode (The display shows Net Value). Kg/g, lb, oz: The weighing units W1: The scale is in weighing range 1 W2: The scale is in weighing range 2 HI: The displayed weight is larger than the Hi check limit OK: The displayed weight is between the Hi limit and Lo limit LO: The displayed weight is smaller than the Lo check limit Bat/ : The battery power consumption 3.2 Function The scale can be available for operation from mains at 110~240V (50/60Hz) with an external AC/DC adapter with 12V output voltage and an optional internal 6V rechargeable battery. 3.2.1 Power-up When power up the scale, the display will first show the software version for 3 seconds and then perform a self display test. Then it will show the Calibration counting times for about 1 second. After that it will automatically establish the current weight as a new zero reference point.
3.2.2 Display range The display can show weight from –Max (Tare weight) to Max+9e (Gross weight). Weighing range switch The instrument can be calibrated for two weighing ranges, and the two weighing ranges will be changed over automatically according to the weight on the pan. For example: W1=1.5kg e1=0.5g W2= 3kg e2=1g When the weight is less than W1+9e1, the weighing range will be in W1 and e will be e1;
When the weight exceeds W1+9e1, the weighing range will go into W2 automatically and e will change to be e2 (without display off).
When the weight exceeds W2+9e2, the display will show nothing and the buzzer sounds.
3.2.3 Zero-setting Zero-setting range: ±2% of Max Zero-setting is only available when the load receptor is not in motion (The display is stable). Semi-automatic zero-setting When there is a minor weight displayed (without load on the pan), press Zero/ key to return to the display to zero, then the ZERO indictor on which indicates that the display now is at the zero point. Zero-tracking The instrument is equipped with a zero-tracking feature which operates at a speed of ±0.25e/s and only when the indicator is at gross zero and there is no motion in the weight display. Initial zero-setting Initial zero-setting range: ±10% of Max When the initial zero-setting range is below -10% of Max, the display shows “-------” and the buzzer sounds. To return the display to normal mode, please adding more weights until the initial zero-setting range is between ±10% of Max. When the initial zero-setting range is beyond +10% of Max, the display shows “-------” and the buzzer sounds. To return the display to normal mode, please take off weights until the initial zero-setting range is between ±10% of Max. 3.2.4 Tare The instrument is provided with a semi-automatic subtractive tare. Semi-automatic tare Press Tare/ key to subtract the current displayed weight value as the tare weight value (Consecutive tare operations are permitted). The NET indicator turns on and the display will show a net weight of the object to be weighted.
To clear the tare value, please remove the container on the pan, then the display will show a minus tare weight value and press Tare/ key again. Note: 1. When performing the tare operation(s), make sure the instrument is in stable. 2. If consecutive tare operations have been performed, to clear the tare value, please remove all the containers on the pan first and then press Tare/ key. 3. For EW100-3/15/30 scale, the maximum tare weight value can only reach to the Max. displayed value (“-“XXXX). For EW200 scale, it can reach the Max Capacity.
3.2.5 Check Weighing Press Func./Exit key to set the Check weighing limits. Set the Hi Limit value first:
Use Unit/ key or Tare/ key to change the flashing digit value; use Zero/ key to move the flashing digit.
Press Print/Enter key to confirm the Hi limit value you have set and start to set the Lo Limit value:
Use Unit/ key or Tare/ key to change the flashing digit value; use Zero/ key to move the flashing digit.
Press Print/Enter key to confirm the Lo limit value you have set and return to weighing mode. To clear the Check Limits, set all limits to be “0” and confirm the setting. Note: 1. The limits should not be set lower than 10e, otherwise the check weighing function will be unavailable. 2. If the Hi limit value has been set beyond the Max. Capacity, when pressing Print/Enter key to confirm the value, the display will show “E..F.CAP” (Exceed Full Capacity). Press Print/Enter key to confirm the value and start to set the Lo limit value; or press Func./Exit key to set a new Hi limit value.
3. If the Lo limit value is set larger than the Hi one, the display will show “Reset” for 2 seconds indicating that the limits value should be reset. Then the display returns to Hi limit value setting.
3.2.6 Power save mode (only for EW100) If the instrument display keeps at zero (no-load) without any operation for 1 minute, the instrument will enter into power save mode automatically.
When putting any weight on the pan or pressing any of the keys, the instrument will work and do the weighing performance (The display will show the weight on the pan). 3.2.7 Units selection (Optional) When there is not any tare weight or checking limits for the instrument, press Unit/ key to change the weighing unit directly.

5. Power Supply & Battery Operation POWER SUPPLY ● AC 110~240V(50/60Hz) ● DC 12V/1000mA BATTERY OPERATION (6V/4.5Ah) The scale can be operated from the battery if desired. The battery can continuously supply power approximately 20 hours. When the battery needs charging, the indicator of “Bat” will turn on. The scale can keep operating for about 10 hours when the symbol appears. The scale will automatically switch off to protect the battery. To charge the battery, simply attach the power supply module to the scale and plug in. The scale does not need to be turned on. The battery should be charged for 12 hours for full capacity. There is an LED to indicate the status of battery charging on the right of display. When the scale is plugged into the mains power the internal battery will be charged. If the LED is Green the battery has been charged. If it is Red the battery is nearly discharged and Yellow indicates the battery is increasing the charge level. As the battery is used, it may fail to hold a full charge. If the battery life becomes unacceptable, then please contact your distributor. Note: The battery should be recharged every 3 months if the scale is not used for long time. 6.
