E500R Digital Meter Operating Instructions
WEIGHING WITH THE E500R
Push the ON/OFF button and allow the E500R two seconds
to come on and to zero. As the meter comes on, it displays
"SC1", "SC2" or "dir" and "Lbs" or "Kilo", depending upon the
last Scale used. The factory programmed scale for use with
Accu-Arm
Scales is "SC1". To change the scale, see Chang-
®
ing the Scale.
If the E500R does not zero, press the ZERO button for
two seconds. After the meter has zeroed, place the animal
on the scale. The meter will freeze on the correct weight.
If necessary, push READ to reweigh an animal after the
initial display reading freezes. The meter will automati-
cally rezero before the next animal is weighed. Push the
ON/OFF button to turn the meter off.
USING THE TOTALIZING FUNCTION
The totalizing function adds the weight of each animal to a
total. To use TOTALIZE, the last total must first be cleared
from memory before starting to weigh animals. Press and
hold the DISPLAY TOTAL button until four zeros appear
(approx. eight sec.). As each animal is weighed, and
before removing the animal, press the TOTALIZE button
until the total number of animals weighed is displayed (ap-
prox. one sec.). This action adds the animal's weight and
count into the total weight and count. The totalized weight
is displayed momentarily. Remove the animal and place the
next animal on the scale. Repeat this process until weighing
is complete.
DISPLAYING THE TOTAL WEIGHT AND COUNT
Press the DISPLAY TOTAL button momentarily. The E500R
displays the total count for three seconds and then displays
the total weight. These totals remain in memory when the
meter is turned off. Clear the total by pressing DISPLAY
TOTAL until four zeros appear, (appx. eight sec.). To turn
the meter off, press ON/OFF.
CHANGING THE SCALE
With the Meter turned OFF, press the button labeled
SCALE 1, SCALE 2, or DIRECT to choose a scale. Keep
the button pressed while pressing the ON/OFF button.
Only Scales that have been enabled can be accessed. To
enable a Scale, see Programming the E500R: Enab. The
Meter now comes on with the newly selected scale. The
E500R is now ready to weigh according to the program-
ming of the scale chosen.
CALIBRATING THE METER
1. Turn meter off. 2. If calibrating the meter's Scale 1 or
Scale 2 settings, hook the meter onto the scale. 3. Press
the DISPLAY TOTAL, ZERO, and ON/OFF buttons all at
the same time and release. 4. The meter will show the
current scale setting, SC_1, SC_2, or DIR. Choose a
different scale setting, if desired, by pressing SCALE 1,
SCALE 2, or DIRECT button. Press the READ button to
continue. 5. "0000" or "000.0" is displayed. If calibrating
to SCALE 1 or SCALE 2 make sure the meter is properly
connected to the scale hanger and platform. Press READ
to continue. 6. The value of the calibration weight is now
shown. Use the arrow keys to enter the known weight of
the calibration weight you will be using. 7. Place the weight
on the scale platform and close the gates on the platform.
8. Press READ to complete the calibration. 9. When it is
finished, the display will flash "done" and then turn off.
NOTE: The calibration weight must be at least 50 lbs for
SCALE 1 or SCALE 2, or more than 5 lbs for DIRECT, or
the calibration will be rejected.
PROGRAMMING THE E500R
With the Meter turned OFF, press the DISPLAY TOTAL
and UNIT CONVERT buttons at the same time. While
holding down these two buttons, press the ON/OFF but-
ton. The scale currently in use is displayed. A different
scale is chosen by using the buttons SCALE 1, SCALE
2, or DIRECT.
Push the READ button to begin setting up the
EnAb
scale. If SCALE 2 is selected, the display
will read "Enab". Using the or buttons,
enable or disable this scale by displaying "ON" or "OFF".
The default setting for SC2 is "Enab-OFF". At any time in
the programming process, pressing ZERO permits exit-
ing without changing the current value. Pressing READ
repeatedly skips through the parameters until "DONE" is
displayed. The Meter then turns itself off, retaining the
programming.
To continue changing the parameter values,
Unit
press READ for the next option. "Unit" is
displayed, allowing the unit of measure for
the scale to be changed. Using the or buttons, change
the weight to "Kilo" or "Lb". Default is "Lb". Press ZERO
to exit without changing.
Press READ for the next option. "Pd" is dis-
Pd
played, for the power-down option. Using the
or buttons, change the power-down option
to "ON" or "OFF". "ON" means the meter will power-down
after 15 minutes of non-use. Default is "ON". Press ZERO
to exit this parameter without changing the values.
Press READ for the next option. "Spd" is dis-
SPd
played, allowing the speed of meter response
to changes in weight to be chosen. Using the
or
buttons, change the option to "Slo" or "FSt". De-
fault is "Slo" for Scales 1 and 2, and "FSt" for the Direct
Scale. Press ZERO to exit without changing.
Press READ for the next option. "Int" is
Int
displayed, allowing changes to the interval
during which weights are measured before
the display freezes. Using the or buttons, change the
time in seconds. "0" means the meter does not freeze.
Other choices range from 5 to 30 seconds. Longer interval
values improve the precision of the displayed weight, but
lengthen the total weighing time. Default is 15 sec. Press
ZERO to exit without changing.
Press READ for the next option. "Zero" is
ZEro
displayed, allowing changes to the maximum
value that the tare weight can drift and still
zero. Using the or buttons, change the weight from 3
to 30 for Scales1 and 2, or 0.3 to 2.9 for the Direct Scale.
Use the
and
to move the digits to the right and left.
Default is 5 Lb for Scales 1 and 2 and 0.5 Lb for the Direct
Scale. Press READ to save changes and ZERO to exit.
At this point, "Done" is displayed and the meter shuts
itself off.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
With the Meter turned OFF, default settings are chosen
by pressing the DISPLAY TOTAL, READ, ZERO, and UNIT
CONVERT buttons together while pressing ON/OFF. When
the changes are completed, the Meter shuts off.
