PREFACEPREFACEPREFACEPREFACEPREFACE

I 10 Indicators are software controlled devices with a host of user-programmablefeatures. Calibration and setting up features are easily accomplished through thesoftware using the front panel buttons and display.

WHAT TO READWHAT TO READWHAT TO READWHAT TO READWHAT TO READ

This manual explains how to use your I 10 properly and should be read beforeoperation.

• If your I 10 is part of an Ohaus Bench Scale setup, preprogrammed andcalibrated at the factory, or if it has already been installed and programmed foryou, Chapter 6 contains instructions on weighing, parts counting and using theinterface for printing.

• If you are an installer, Chapter 1 contains instructions for unpacking andinstalling the I 10.

• To program and calibrate the I 10 for a particular application, refer to Chapters2, 3, 4 and 5.

☞ Before sealing and mounting cantake place, you must program andcalibrate the I 10 as explained inChapters 2, 3, 4 and 5.

After the unit has been programmed andcalibrated, it may be sealed as follows(for Legal For Trade applications, seeChapter 8):

1. Replace the Security Plate and fas-ten it to the unit as shown in thediagram.

2. Position the rear cover and mount-ing brackets on the unit as shown inthe diagram. Fasten any cable con-nectors, strain relief caps, etc. thatmay be used for cable connections.

3. Install the four phillips screws andwashers to secure the cover andbrackets.

Auto-Zero Tracking minimizes the ef-fects of temperature changes and shiftof the zero reading. Use this parameterto select a threshold level (in divisions)which the I 10 will consider to be a validchange in load.

Auto-Zero Tracking occurs only whenthe display indicates zero regardless ofthe load on the load receiver.

☞ 0.6 divisions is normally used forbench, counter and livestockscales; 3 divisions for vehicle axleload and railway scales; and 1.0division for most other scales.

Averaging LevelAveraging LevelAveraging LevelAveraging LevelAveraging Level

Averaging level compensates for vibra-tion or excessive air currents on the loadreceiver. During operation, the indicatorcontinually takes weight readings fromthe load cell. Successive readings arethen digitally processed to achieve astabilized display. Using this feature,you specify how much processing youneed.

Select one of four averaging levels usingthe adjacent table as a guide.

Parts Counting mode must first be en-abled in the Unit Selection menu beforeit can be used. See Unit Selection inChapter 4.

In this mode, the I 10 calculates anddisplays the quantity of parts you placeon the load receiver. Since the indicatordetermines the quantity based on theaverage piece weight of a single part, allparts must be reasonably uniform inweight.

To perform parts counting, use the fol-lowing procedure:

☞ If you will be using a container tohold parts on the load receiver,“PC Err” in the Unit Selection menumust be set to OFF.

1. Repeatedly press until “Con”

is displayed along with the parts

DISPLAYEDMESSAGE DESCRIPTION

LobAt Batteries are too weak to display weight values.

UnCAL Invalid checksum of non volatile memory; unit must be set up forprogram constants and calibrated. If error remains, it indicates ahardware problem. Checksum is verified each time the I 10 isturned on.

ErrLo Underload condition. Dead load weight is less than dead loadduring calibration.

ErrHi Weight is beyond 105% of full scale capacity.

PCErr Parts counting error. See Chapter 6.

Err0 Invalid memory checksum; indicates hardware error. Checksum isverified each time the I 10 is turned on.

Err2 Indicates overrange of A/D converter. Usually caused by overweight condition beyond“ErrHi”.

Err3 RS232 Communication error - Invalid command sent.

Err5 Internal value is too large to display. Check Program Constantsmenu or Custom Units Conversion Factor.

Err7 No weight units are enabled. See Chapter 4.

tohi Calibration/Linearization Error. Weight may have been addedduring calibration procedure when no load should be on loadreceiver.

toLo Calibration/Linearization Error. Incorrect weight placed on loadreceiver during calibration procedure.

Keep in mind that the load receiver be-ing used must have the appropriate ca-pacity and resolution for the desiredcustom unit.

The I 10 automatically adjusts the cus-tom unit graduations so that the customunit divisions do not exceed the cali-brated divisions. For example, a 50 x0.01 lb scale has 5000 divisions. TheI 10 will display ounces for the customunit as 800 x 0.2 oz, or 4000 divisions.
