place balance on a stable and flat table or free from vibrations
balance should not be exposed to draughts and sudden air movements
balance should be placed in room of stable temperature and humidity
balance should be placed far from heat sources
if static electricity influence balances, indications, its base should be
earthed. Earthing clamp is in the back part of balance base
balances should be levelled according to a level condition indicator to
guarantee the appropriate weighing accuracy
2.2. Time of warming up
To do the measurements correctly level the scale. Take the pan off carefully
(without rapid pulls and hits) and turn the legs in order to level the balance, air
bubble should be place in the centre of level condition indicator.
Balance levelling
1 - correct levelling
2 - incorrect levelling

2.3. Balance levelling
Before performing measurements wait until balance reaches temperature
stabilization. It is so-called warm-up time. It takes about 15 minutes. For weighing
instruments that have been stored in low temperatures (e.g. during winter) the
warm-up time is about 2 hours.
3. INTENDED USE
The balances are used to do precise measurements in laboratories. It is possible
to do the zero function in all measure range.
The balance weights in following units:

10. SETTING THE PARAMETERS
User by means of appropriate setting of parameters from menu group
<P4 Readout> can adjust the balance to existing operating conditions (filter) and
one’s expectations (refreshing, autozero, last digit displaying)
Submenu Readout – internal settings
10.1. Filter setting
For perfect conditions filter can be set as very fast, however if conditions are bad
(vibrations, draughts) filter should be set as slow or as very slow. Effectiveness of
filter operating is different for weighing range. Filter works slower in time of
“reaching” the final result, however stronger when mass gets to set range of filter
operating (parameter range of filter operating available only in service menu –
user do not have access to it).
10.2. Median filter setting
Task of median filter is to eliminate single big disturbances. By setting digital
value determines speed of filter operating. For zero option filter operating is off.
10.3. Setting of autozero operating
To ensure accurate balance indications software “AUTOZERO” function was
introduced. Task of this function is automatic control and correction of balance
zero indication.
- 21 -
10.4. Autozero setting
If the function is active following results in declared periods of time are compared
e.g. each 1s. If these results differs at less value than declared range AUTOZERA
e.g. 1 interval the balance sets to zero automatically and
and
appears on the display.
If the AUTOZERO function is active each measurement starts at precise zero
every time. In special cases this function disturbs in the measurements e.g. when
the load is put on the pan very slowly (pouring substance). In this case correcting
system of zero indication can correct also indication of real load mass.
AUTOZERA is switched on and off in the parameter P4 03
10.5. Last digit
To ensure appropriate comfort of operating with balance user determines
(depending on needs) if last digit of mass indication is to be displayed and in
which states of balance. One of the below values can be set:
- 0
never
- 1
always
- 2
when stab
For verified balance option 1 – always is set (without possibility of changing)
10.6. Negative
Possibility to change displaying mode – negative effect (dark background, light
signs).

If the functions are activated all parameters of the balance are received
through RS 232. After reception the balance informs user how many
parameters are accepted, how many are changed, how many were declared
incorrectly and how many were not accepted by the software.
Printing and reception of the parameters is very easy and fast procedure of
introducing new setting. After printing actual parameters to file in the
computer user changes the parameters very fast and without any problems.
User sends new corrected setting to the balance software. After these
changes the balance accepts new set up. User must know all parameters
and computer operation very well.

15. CONTROL OF PACKAGED GOODS
Software of scale enables control of packaged goods directly on the scale ( single
stand control) or connecting to computer and cooperation with computer software
KTP NET 2003 (multi stand control). Choice of type of scale use to single stand
control or multi stand control is possible from factory menu and it is not possible
to be changed by user.
Software enables execution of goods control according to requirements of
General Manager’s Notice only, on few or dozen of production lines. Basing on
collected data it is possible to perform quality evaluation produced packaged
goods:
• complying to company’s quality system - built-in statistics elements
Control started from scale is automatically finished after control of required
quantity of packages (sample), which is set by scale software depending on
number of goods batches. When control is finished it is possible to generate final
report containing all information necessary to report of control of packaged goods
and print-out on connected printer.
Scale software enables:
- control of packaged goods of constant tare,
- control of packaged goods of changeable tare.
15.1. Control of Packaged Goods – single stand
Software enables introducing 999 goods to data base. For each good user has
ability to set all data necessary for correct (according to regulation) performing of
control process. During control software currently displays information about
process, when control is finished generates summary. Results of control can be
printed repeatedly on connected printer or memorize in scale memory for future
printouts and analyzes.
For correct management of memory capacity it is possible to enter 50 operators
of different authorizations for interference in scale settings.
Before performing the control operator must introduce to data base information
about goods subjected to control and about users of scale, which will perform
future controls and their level of authorization.

15.1.1. Adding the operators
Attention:
In scale software there must be at least one operator of 5 level of authorization –
administrator. It is operator recorded under position 01 on operators list (it is not
possible to change level of his authorization). It is protection from accidental
depriving by even one user the possibility of data editing .
To add new operator:
Only “administrator” has authorization to introduce changes operators list and
operators which received such authorization from administrator.
In line of operators no name is displayed (none operator logged). To perform
changes in operators list is authorized operator of suitable authorization level.
By first turn on list is filled by factory settings.
Select operator 01 of administrator authorization (5 in last column of list).
Password for this operator is factory set to value 1111.
After selecting operator and pressing ENTER key, software will move to next
window, in which operator must enter password known only for him. After correct
entering the password and confirmation by ENTER key software will go back to
option of menu KTP with simultaneous introduction of name of chosen operator.
If entered password is incorrect, software will display message about incorrect
password and will go back to window of operator choice.
- 28 -
After logging in scale software as administrator it is possible to introduce changes
in operators data.
Introducing administrator password:
During introducing the password use scale keys described on drawing 2 or
keyboard PS/2 (they can be connected to scale port) .
Scales keys – introducing value in menu field
To add operator:
• introduce name of operator – Max 25 marks
• introduce password of operator – Max 6 digits
• set level of authorization – 1 digit determining level
0 – no possibility to start control
1 – possible to start control
2 – possible to stop control before set end
3 – possible to edit goods

18. TRANSMISSION POTOCOL
18.1. Some basic information
ƒ
ƒ
ƒ
ƒ
The communication protocol has been designed for exchanging information
between RADWAG scales and external devices via RS-232C.
The communication protocol has been designed in the form of request
response messages.
Scales always respond after receiving a command or automatically after
completing a command.
Using the set of commands you can fetch some information from scales or
influence the operation of the device. E.g. It is possible to:
• Identify the scale
• Collect weighing results
• Keyboard control
• Display control
• Changes of variables
• Other
External software have to assure not sending the next command without receiving
the answer for the previous one.
18.2. Transmission parameters
•
•
Scales are equipped in RS 232 (bidirectional) and RS485 (one direction
from the scale to an external device).
Possibile interface settings:
Parameter
Baud rate
Parity
Data bits
Stop bits
Flow control (cannot be
used in HX)
Setting
2400 – 4800 – 9600 – 19200
Even/odd/None
7/ 8
1/ 2
No – RTS/CTS – XON/XOFF
- 51 -
18.3. Types of transmission
Scales with MBK X.XX program use two different ways of transmission:
• Continuous transmission or automatic printout (RS 232 and RS 485)
• of request-response messages (request messages via RS 232 and
response messages via RS 232 or RS 485)
18.4. Transmission characteristics
18.4.1. Types of printouts
There are 3 types of automatic printouts in the scale provided it is not a retail
scale and the DRH parameter in factory parameters is not enabled.
Notice:
If the parameter DRH is set to 1 this parameter is locked for edition, but it is
possible to start continuous transmission by using a RS232 command.

Printouts are automatically generated after each stable
measurement over min. mass (next parameter).
The next printout can be generated when the result
achieves the value below the Min. mass and again over it.
- 52 -
18.4.2. Continuous transmission
Results are transmitted in basic units. Transmission can be disabled/enabled
using RS232 command:
C1 CR LF – Switch on continuous transmission in basic unit
C0 CR LF – Switch off continuous transmission in basic unit
or using the parameter: settings/ RS-232/Aut. printout/continuous

18.4.3. Continuous transmission „with pauses”
Continuous transmission „with pauses” allows users to determine the time
interval between the subsequent frames in the parameter interval.
His type of printouts can be enabled only in parameters: Settings/RS-232/ Aut.
printouts/with interv.
The frame format is the same as in basic simple transmission.
The interval is set in: Setting/RS-232/Interval

18.4.4. Stable result transmission
The scale automatically generates after each stable result separated by a stable
result below the Min. mass that can be set in parameters.
The intended use of this printout is for slip printers so it doesn’t have a starting
characters and the length can vary from 18 to 20 characters.
Standard length is 18 characters, but if the parameter digit marking has been
enabled, the length increases to 20 characters, because additional brackets are
printed e.g.:
383 kg
38[3] kg
3[83] kg
It can be set in :
Settings/Factory/digit marking
Frame format:
[space] [sign] [mass] [space] [unit] [CR LF]
sign
mass
unit
[space] for positive values
[-] for negative values
9 characters justified to the right
3 characters justified to the left
This type of printouts can be enabled in parameters:
Settings/RS-232/Aut. print/when stab.
Setting the Min. mass is possible in:
Settings/RS-232/Min. mass
Notice:
The result is printed in current unit.

In any continuous transmission results are printed in basic units. In frames
generated after pressing print key results are printed in current units.
18.5. Command and response syntax
18.5.1. Command syntax
ƒ
ƒ
All commands are terminated with CR,LF (ASCII 13 dec,10 dec)
Commands can include a parameter or not
Overall format:
ID CR LF
– example of a command without a parameter
ID _ PARAMETER CR LF
– example of a command with a parameter
where:
• ID – command 1-4 characters
• _ - space (ASCII 32 decimal)
•
•
PARAMETER – string of ASCII characters. Texts have to be inscribed
within a quotation marks.
Spaces are not elements of the syntax – placed only for better
readability.
- 55 -
18.5.2. Response syntax
Response can include parameters or not and additionally can signalise errors.
After receiving an appropriate command scales response immediately with:
ƒ Immediate response
ƒ Acknowledge of receiving a command
ƒ Accepting of a received command
ƒ Not accepting of a received command
Overall format:
ID_STATUS CR LF - example of a command without a parameter
ID_STATUS_PARAMETER CR LF - example of a command with a parameter
ES CR LF - error detected or not listed command
where:
• ID – – command 1-4 characters
• _ - space (ASCII 32 dec)
• STATUS – one character that outlines the response status or a status of
the scale.
Different possibilities:
A – in case of commands that cannot be completed immediately command accepted
I – correct command but cannot be executed at that moment
D – in case of commands that cannot be completed immediately command completed
E – error of execution of a command e.g. incorrect parameter value.
Additionally when the parameter is a weighings result, STATUS can
be:
_ - (space ASCII 32 dec) stable result
? – non-stable result
^ - error – result over the range
v – error – result below the range

19. UNDER-FLOOR WEIGHING
For scales with 165 x 165mm platforms can weigh underslinged loads (hanged
under the balance floor). In case of using this function:
− remove the hole plug made of plastic (placed in the balance floor),
− a suspension can be seen in the hole. It is standard equipment,
− Mount an appropriate hook for hanging loads (hook is non-standard
equipment).
1. The suspense cannot be rotated, revolved or tampered in any way,
because of direct connection with the weighing mechanism of the balance.
2. All the additional elements like pan, string etc. should be tarred (TARE).
3. Balances with 300 x 300mm or 410 x 410mm platforms do not have the
under-floor weighing mechanism.
