PRECAUTIONS
Static Electricity
CAUTION! This device contains static sensitive circuit cards and components. Improper
handling of these devices or printed circuit cards can result in damage to or destruction of
the component or card. Such actual and/or consequential damage IS NOT covered
under warranty and is the responsibility of the device owner. Electronic components
must be handled only by qualified electronic technicians who follow the guidelines listed
below:
ATTENTION! ALWAYS use a properly grounded wrist strap when handling, removing or
installing electronic circuit cards or components. Make certain that the wrist strap ground
lead is securely attached to an adequate ground. If you are uncertain of the quality of the
ground, you should consult a licensed electrician.
ALWAYS handle printed circuit card assemblies by the outermost edges. NEVER touch
the components, component leads or connectors.
ALWAYS observe warning labels on static protective bags and packaging and NEVER
remove the card or component from the packaging until ready for use.
ALWAYS store and transport electronic printed circuit cards and components in antistatic protective bags or packaging.
Environmental
The 205/210 indicators meet or exceeds all
certification requirements within a
temperature range of 14 to 104 F (-10 to
+40 C).
In order to keep cooling requirements to a
minimum, the indicator should be placed
out of direct sunlight and to provide
adequate air circulation, keep the area
around the indicator clear.
Make certain the instrument is not directly
in front of a heating or cooling vent. Such
a location will subject the indicator to
sudden temperature changes, which may
result in unstable weight readings.
Insure that the indicator has good, clean
AC power and is properly grounded.
In areas subject to lightning strikes,
additional protection to minimize lightning
damage, such as surge suppressors,
should be installed.
PRECAUTIONS, Cont.
Care and Cleaning
1. DO NOT submerge indicator in water, pour or spray water directly on instrument.
2. DO NOT use acetone, thinner or other volatile solvents for cleaning.
3. DO NOT expose equipment to temperature extremes.
4. DO NOT place equipment in front of heating/cooling vents.
5. DO clean the indicator with a damp soft cloth and mild non-abrasive detergent.
6. DO remove power before cleaning with a damp cloth.
Electrical Power
The 205/210 indicators have been designed to operate from 90 to 264 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Note that
a special order is not required for operation at 230 VAC.
CAUTION! - To avoid electrical hazard and possible damage to the indicator,
DO NOT, under any circumstance, cut, remove, alter, or in any way bypass the
power cord grounding prong.
On models requiring 230 VAC power, it is the responsibility of the customer to have a qualified
electrician install the proper power cord plug which conforms to national electrical codes and local
codes and ordinances.
The power outlet for the indicator should be on a separate circuit from the distribution panel. This
circuit should be dedicated to the exclusive use of the indicator. The wiring should conform to
national and local electrical codes and ordinances and should be approved by the local inspector
to assure compliance.
To prevent electrical noise interference, make certain all other wall outlets for use with air
conditioning and heating equipment, lighting or other equipment with heavily inductive loads, such
as welders, motors and solenoids are on circuits separate from the indicator. Many of these
disturbances originate within the building itself and can seriously affect the operation of the
instrument. These sources of disturbances must be identified and steps must be taken to prevent
possible adverse effects on the instrument. Examples of available alternatives include isolation
transformers, power regulators, uninterruptible power supplies, or simple line filters.
CAUTION! When in parallel runs, locate Load Cell cables a minimum of 24" away
from all AC wiring.
INSTALLATION
Before beginning installation of your 205/210 Weight Indicating Instrument, make certain that the
instrument has been received in good condition. Carefully remove the instrument from the
shipping carton and inspect it for any evidence of damage (such as exterior dents or scratches)
that may have taken place during shipment. Keep the carton and packing material for return
shipment if it should become necessary. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to file all claims for
any damages or loss incurred during transit.
MOUNTING
NOTE! Should your 205/210 indicator come already installed on a scale, the following information
describing the installation of the instrument does not apply.
The Model 205/210 Indicator is housed in a NEMA 4X/IP66 stainless steel wall or desk-mount
enclosure. The 205/210 gimbal may be mounted on a desktop or other smooth, flat, horizontal
surface or may be mounted on a wall. Refer to Figure No. 1 for a layout of wall-mounting bolts.

During the setup and calibration process it will be necessary to enter operational parameters via
the 205 keypad. Pressing the TARE/ENTER key (performs the same function as the ENTER key
on the 210) will cause the data entered or displayed to be retained and the 205 to advance to
the next prompt. The functions of the numeric keys are replaced by using the UNITS/LEFT
ARROW and the ASTERISK/UP ARROW keys. The cursor location is identified by the blinking
character and can be advanced to the left to the next position by pressing the UNITS/LEFT
ARROW key. Pressing the ASTERISK/UP ARROW key will change the blinking character to the
next value. Continue to press this key to "toggle" between the different available values for the
setup parameter. Pressing the ASTERISK key when a setup parameter (not a parameter value)
is displayed, will "backup" to the previous prompt.
MODEL 210
During the setup and calibration process it is necessary to enter operational parameters via the
210s keypad. Pressing the ENTER key without entering a new value will retain the current
setting and advance the 210 to the next prompt. To change a setting, enter a new value and
press the ENTER key. This will save the new value and advance the 210 to the next prompt.
Pressing the ASTERISK key will "backup" to the previous prompt.
CAUTION: The membrane keypad is not to be operated with pointed objects
(pencils, pens, fingernails, etc). Damage to keypad resulting from this practice
will NOT be covered under warranty.

CALIBRATION MODES
The 205/210 indicators have five modes that can be used to perform calibration. Three of the
modes require a test load or test weights, one requires the scale to be empty (and at zero) and the
last uses the calibration C numbers from a previous calibration. The modes are as follows:
1. Dual-Point with Zero (First Zero)
This is a standard calibration method requiring one weight, an empty scale and has one
conversion factor. This method uses two calibration points (CAL1= and CAL2=) to establish a
zero (no load) calibration value and to span the indicator. The two points correspond to zero
weight and the test load or test weight and can be applied in any order. This method should be
used for first-time calibration and complete recalibration.
2. Dual-Point without Zero (False Zero)
This calibration method requires one test weight and establishes a new conversion factor only.
It is used to establish a false (temporary zero) zero without affecting the zero calibration value
stored during the last calibration. This is particularly useful in tank weighing applications,
where it may be impractical or impossible to completely empty the tank. This method uses two
calibration points, CAL1= and CAL2=. The value of the test weight is entered when CAL1= is
displayed and the NET/GROSS key is pressed when CAL2= is displayed.
3. Single-Point for Span Only (Last Zero)
This calibration method requires one test weight, the scale at zero and establishes a new
conversion factor (span) without affecting the zero calibration value stored during the last
calibration. This minimizes placing and removing test weights and is especially useful when
checking high capacity scales. This method uses two calibration points, CAL1= and CAL2=.
The value of the test weight is entered when CAL1= is displayed and the ZERO key is pressed
when CAL2= is displayed.
4. Single-Point for Zero Only (Only Zero)
This calibration method requires no test weight, an empty scale and establishes a new zero
without affecting the conversion factor (span). This is useful to regain the full range of zero
limit when the dead load of the scale has changed. This would occur for example, if a guard
rail has been added to the scale platform. This method uses two calibration points, CAL1= and
CAL2=. The ENTER key is pressed when CAL1= is displayed and the ZERO key is pressed
when CAL2= is displayed.
5. Calibration C Numbers
The calibration C numbers (C1, C2, C3 and C4) are displayed only during the Test mode
operation and are shown at the end of the test. Each number is displayed for approximately 4
seconds, allowing you to record them. These numbers correspond to the calibration setting of
the indicator. The numbers may be up to three digits in length. By recording these numbers
you will be able to return the indicator to its present calibration settings without using test
weights simply by entering the C numbers. Refer to the Calibration "C" Number section of
this manual for instructions on viewing the C numbers.

The battery life of the indicator varies significantly with the way the indicator is used (e.g. the
longer more display segments are on, the faster the battery will discharge). The battery used in
the 205/210 indicator will power it continuously, with four 350 ohm load cells, for from 5.5 hours
(with maximum display segments on) to 9 hours (with minimum display segments on). This time
can be extended if the Sleep and Auto-Shutoff features are employed.
LOAD CELLS

NOTE! The 205/210 indicators are shipped with the load cell excitation voltage set to
12V (J3 open). To operate from a 12 VDC battery, the load cell excitation voltage MUST
be set to 8V (J3 closed). Battery operation with the load cell excitation voltage set to
12V will result in an unstable weight display. Refer to Figure No. 6 for location of J3.
Battery Installation
1. Remove the AC power to the
indicator.
2. Referring to Figure No. 11, remove
the three acorn nuts securing the
Battery Access Cover to the bottom of
the indicator, then remove the cover
exposing the battery access opening.
3. Insure the ( - ) negative polarity
markings of the battery are positioned
facing up (towards the front of the
indicator) and the alignment notch in
the battery is to the left.
4. Slide the battery into the opening,
compressing the battery ejector
spring, until you feel resistance and
the battery is almost flush with the
bottom of the indicator.
5. Replace the Battery Access Cover
and install the three acorn nuts
removed earlier, securing the battery
in place.
