3.0  BASIC OPERATION 
3.1  ZEROING THE DISPLAY 
 
 Press  the  [Zero]  key  to  set  the  zero  point  from  which  all  other 
weighing  is  measured.  This  will  normally  be  done  on ly  when  the 
platform is empty.   A new zero is set if the scale  is already within 
±2% of the original zero at power on. 
 
  When  the  zero  point  is  obtained  the  Denomination display  will 
show an arrow above the zero symbol ( ZERO). This indicates the 
scale is at the zero condition.  
 
  The  scale  has  an  automatic  re-zeroing  function  to  a ccount  for 
minor  drifting  or  accumulation  of  material  on  the  p latform. 
However  you  may  need  to  press  [Zero] to  re-zero  the  scale 
whenever  a  small  amount  of  weight  is  shown  even  tho ugh  the 
platform is empty. 
 
3.2  TARING 
 
 Taring  is  used  to  eliminate  the  weight  of  a  contain er  so  that  only 
the net weight is displayed.  
 
  Zero the scale by pressing  [Zero] if necessary. The zero indicator 
will be on. 
 
  Place  an  empty  container  on  the  platform,  a  value  f or  its  weight 
will be displayed. 
 
  Press  [Tare]  to  zero  the  scale.  The  weight  is  stored  as  the  tar e 
value. An arrow above the “ Net” will be on.  
  
						

							13 | P a g e              © Adam Equipment Company 2009  
 When  both  the  product  and  container  are  removed  the  Quantity  
and  TOTAL  display will show bars “- - - - -“ as the weight i s below 
zero. 
 
  If  a  different  container  is  to  be  used,  remove  this   negative  tare 
value by pressing the  [Tare] key once more. 
 
  Any  time  the  weight  is  negative,  only  bars  will  be  shown  in  the 
TOTAL  display “- - - - - “. 
 
3.3 COIN COUNTING 
 
  To  count  coins  simply  place  the  coins  in  the  contai ner  and  press 
the  key  corresponding  to  the  value  of  the  coin.  The   displays  will 
immediately  show  the  denomination  selected  in  the  
Denomination   window,  the  number  of  coins  in  the  Quantity 
window and the value of the coins in the  TOTAL window. 
 
  To  change  to Old  or  New  types of coin, press  the  [New/Old] key.  
Note an arrow in the  Quantity window shows the selection. 
 
  The  Scale  determines  the  weight  of  the  coins  and  di vided  the 
weight by the average weight for the denomination s elected.  This 
determines  the  Quantity  of  coins.    The  total  value  is  the  quantity 
multiplied by the denomination. 
 
  As  some  coins  have  been  redesigned  the  weight  of  th e  old  style 
may differ from the weight of the new style.  Make  sure you select 
the correct coin style when counting. 
 
  It  is  necessary  to  set  an  average  weight  into  memor y  before  any 
of the token keys  [T2] or  [T1]  can be used.  See Sections 5.1 and 
5.2 for more details.

3.4 MEMORY
 ACCUMULATIONS 
 
 When  the  coins  have  been  counted  it  is  possible  to  store  the 
results of this sample into memory by pressing  [M+].   
 
  The  displays  will  show  a  number  corresponding  to  th e  item 
number  in  memory  ( Denomination  display  “1 ”)  and  the  total 
quantity  of  coins  counted  in  memory  ( Quantity  display)  and  the 
total  value  of  coins  that  have  been  stored  into  mem ory  (TOTAL  
display). 
 
 For Example:
 
 “    0.20 ”   “    285”  “   57.00” 
  
Press  [M+]   
 “  1   ”   “    285”  “   57.00” 
  
After 2 seconds the scale will return to normal ope ration.  Put next 
batch of coins on the scale, select denomination  [R1] 
 “   1.00 ”   “    108”  “   108.00” 
  
Press [M+] 
 “  2   ”   “    393”  “   165.00 ” 
After 2 seconds the scale will return to normal ope ration.  Put next 
batch of coins, select denomination  [10c] 
 
 “   0.10 ”   “    105”  “     10.50” 
  
						

							15 | P a g e              © Adam Equipment Company 2009  
  
Press [M+]  
 “  3   ”   “    498”  “   175.50” 
 
 After  2  seconds  the  scale  will  return  to  normal  ope ration.    The 
weight  on  the  scale  must  return  to  zero  before  anot her  value  is 
allowed to be stored into memory. 
 
NOTE :    Tokens  cannot  be  added  to  memory  as  they  do  not  h ave  a  value 
associated with them. 
 
 If tokens are to be added to memory with coins, an  error message 
will be displayed:   
 
 “   ErrOr   ”    “   TYPE”    “       ” 
After that the scale will return to normal operatio n.

3.5 MEMORY RECALL 
 
 Pressing  the  [MR/
 

] key  will  allow  you  to  view  each  set  of  data 
stored into the memory.    
 The first time  [MR/
 

] is pressed the first set of data is shown with 
Denomination  window showing “  ≡ 1   ≡” for 1 second followed by 
the  Denomination , Quantity   and TOTAL   windows  showing  the 
quantity and value for this first item. 
 
“   1   ”   “         ”  “             ” for 1 second and then 
    “      0.20”   “    285”  “     57.00” 
 Pressing  [MR/
 

] again will show the second set of data.  
  
 “   2   ”   “         ”  “             ” for 1 second and then 
“      1.00”   “    108”  “   108.00” 
 Continue  to  press  [MR/
 

] until  the  total  values  from  the  memory 
are shown: 
 
 
“    3   ”  “  TotAL ”   “  175.50 ” 
After 2 seconds the scale will return to normal ope ration. 
 
  If  [MC/  


]  is pressed when the total is shown-  
 
“     3   ”  “    498”   “  175.50” as in the above example,   
  
all data in the memory will be erased. The displays  will show Zero 
and it will return to normal weighing after 2 secon ds.

4.0  RS-232 INTERFACE 
The  Scale  includes  a  RS-232  output  as  standard.    The  RS-232  allows  a 
record to be sent to a serial printer as work is do ne on the scale. 
  
4.1  RS-232
 OUTPUT 
 
The  RS-232  interface  is  bi-directional  with  command s  that  function  similar  to 
some of the front panel keys and other commands to  input data into the scale 
for  coin  weights,  denominations  and  symbols  used.    The  parameters  for  the 
RS-232 interface are: 
 
  
The scale does not require  RTS/CTS signals to be u sed.   
 
4.2 PRINTING 
  
The scale will output data when the following keys  are pressed.

4.3  INPUT COMMANDS 
 
The  following  commands  duplicate  the  functions  of  keys.  All  commands  are 
terminated by carriage return/line feed.  
Z  Same as  [Zero] key.  Zeros the display. 
M+  Same as  [M+] key. 
P  Same as  [Print] key. 
T  Same as  [Total] key. 
MC  Clears memory. 
  
The  following  are  for  the  factory  to  set  new  denomi nations  and  coin  weights.  
The  format  is  to  send  the  key  number,  followed  by  t he  denomination  and  the 
new coin weight and then the old coin weight.  
Examples-  
K01, 1.00, 3.995, 11.971                    1R key (assume key 01),  
With denomination 1.00, weight of new coin =3.995g, weight of old coin=11.971g. 
 
K07, 0.20, 4.489, 2.505                        5c key (assume key7),  
With denomination 0.20, weight of new coin =4.489g  and weight of old coin = 2.505. 
 
K10, T3, 1.234, 2.456                           Token 3 key (assume key10),  
With of a token, number 3, weight of new token = 1.234g and weight of old token = 2.456g. 
Key  numbers  are  the  same  as  the  numeric  entry  value s  shown  on  the  keys, 
the 11th key (marked 0.01) will be key number 10.    
To  change  the  printed  symbol  for  the  monetary  unit,   send  the  command  $ 
followed by the hex code for the letter or symbol t o be used. 
For example, to print a “R” symbol send the command  $52.
