Introduction: The Ultegra™ Bench Scale is a USB powered unit with a capacity of 150 lbs and is constructed of ABS composite material. The scale may be placed on a desk, bench, or used with an 'Insert' adapter to countersink into a counter-top. Units may be ordered with a ball roller-deck surface. B. Description: This unit can be powered from any PC that is compliant with version USB 1.1 or later. This includes external hubs, either bus powered or self powered. The scale is identified by a PC as a human interface device (HID) and operates with Windows 2000, Windows XP or later. It also can be powered from a 5VDC AC adapter. A USB port is not required when powered from an AC adapter. 09/09 4 51222 Rev. 1 Section 2: Setup A. Installing: 1. Remove the scale from the packing box and place on a flat surface where it will be used. 2. Using the level bubble, adjust one or two feet minimally to level the platform. Do NOT adjust all 4 feet. B. Connections: 1. USB - To use the USB interface, plug the included six foot (6') USB cable into the scale base where marked output 1. Connect the other end into a USB port on your computer or USB hub. See figure below. 2. REMOTE DISPLAY - To use a remote display, plug the remote display into the connector on the scale base where marked remote display. Mount the remote using 2 screws or use a velcro strip (not included). A stand PN 20301, can also be used. 3. AC ADAPTER - To use an AC adapter, plug the barrel plug into the back of the scale where marked optional power, and the AC adapter unit into a proper outlet. Check the AC receptacle for proper voltages prior to plugging in the adapter. 4. Check with your freight provider for compatible computer software. 09/09 5 51222 Rev. 1 C. Computer Connections: 1. USB setup: The USB port will only function with a computer utilizing Windows 2000, Windows XP, or higher operating system. When the scale-connected USB cable is interfaced to a computer’s USB port or USB hub, the computer will prompt a device has been found and it will automatically install the driver. 09/09 6 51222 Rev. 1 Section 3: Using the Scale A. Power- on: Because the scale uses special low-power circuitry, no warm-up time is required. Weight readings will be accurate as soon as the unit is powered on and set to zero. When the unit is powered, the liquid crystal display (LCD) will show the software part number and the revision followed by either "0.00", or "------". Dashes are displayed to indicate the scale is registering a weight upon startup. Press ZERO to set the display to '0.00' and start weighing. B. Keys: The keys for operating the scale are located on the main display and on the remote display. 50212-10 1. Pressing the [ZERO] key resets the display to indicate zero (0). • The zero range is set at 2% or 3.00 lbs when set for Canadian use • The zero range is set at 100 % or 150 lbs when set for USA use 2. The [ZERO] key function will be inhibited if the instrument detects any of the following conditions: a. Motion on the platform b. An underload condition c. An overload condition d. Outside of programmed zero range 3. Pressing the [UNITS] key toggles the weighing units and the display 'indicators' between "lb" to "kg". Verify the units you want to use by noting the arrow 'indicator' on the display. 09/09 7 51222 Rev. 1 C. Weighing 1. With the platform empty, press the [ZERO] key. The display will indicate zero Note: The “C “ to the left of the “0.00” indicates true center of zero. 2. Check that the correct units are indicated, press the [UNITS] key to change to "lb" or "kg". 3. Place the item to be weighed centered on the platform. 4. Read the Gross weight from the display. 50212-11 09/09 8 51222 Rev. 1 Section 4: Customer Care A. Cleaning: Clean by wiping the scale assembly off with a damp cloth only. Do not use running water, harsh chemicals, or allow liquids to drip onto the scale/display. B. Operator Instrument Prompts: Prompt Description HiCAP Load 150 lbs/ 68 kg or greater - over capacity.
