4. Opstelling

4.1. Kragtoevoer

The SF-400D scale operates on two AA batteries (included) or an optional AC power adapter (not included).

  1. Open the battery compartment cover on the underside of the scale.
  2. Plaas twee AA-batterye in en maak seker dat die polariteit (+/-) korrek is.
  3. Maak die batterykompartement toe.
  4. Alternatively, connect a compatible AC power adapter (6V, amperage not specified in product details, consult manufacturer if needed) to the power port.

4.2. Placement and Leveling

For optimal accuracy, the scale must be placed on a stable, flat, and level surface.

  1. Place the scale on your desired weighing surface.
  2. Observe the integrated bubble level.
  3. Adjust the four adjustable legs on the bottom of the scale by rotating them until the bubble is centered within the level indicator.

5. Bedryfsinstruksies

5.1. Basiese Weeg

  1. Druk die AAN/AF button to turn on the scale. The display will show "88888" and then "0.00" (or "0.0" depending on the unit).
  2. If the display does not show zero, press the tarra knoppie om die skaal te nul.
  3. Druk die MODUS button to select your desired weighing unit (g, oz, ct, dwt, gn, T).
  4. Gently place the item(s) to be weighed on the center of the stainless steel platform.
  5. Lees die stabiele gewig wat op die LCD-skerm vertoon word.
  6. Om die skaal af te skakel, druk en hou die AAN/AF button for a few seconds. The scale also features an auto shut-off function to conserve battery power.

5.2. Tareerfunksie

The Tare function allows you to subtract the weight of a container, so only the contents are weighed.

  1. Place an empty container on the weighing platform.
  2. Wait for the display to stabilize and show the container's weight.
  3. Druk die tarra button. The display will reset to "0.00" (or "0.0").
  4. Add the items you wish to weigh into the container. The display will now show only the net weight of the items.
  5. To clear the tare, remove all items from the platform and press tarra again if the display does not return to zero automatically.

5.3. Stuk Telfunksie (PCS)

This function is useful for counting multiple identical items.

  1. Turn on the scale and ensure it is zeroed.
  2. Druk die PCS button. The display will show "PCS" and a sampgrootte (bv. "25", "50", "75", "100").
  3. Druk die MODUS button to cycle through the available sample sizes (25, 50, 75, 100 pieces). Select the sample size that matches the number of items you will place on the scale for sampling.
  4. Plaas die presiese aantal sample items (e.g., 25 pieces) onto the weighing platform according to your selected sampdie grootte.
  5. Druk die PCS knoppie weer om die s te bevestigample. The display will now show the number of pieces.
  6. You can now add more items of the same type, and the scale will display the total count.
  7. To exit the counting mode, press the MODUS knoppie.

5.4. Kalibrasie

Calibration ensures the accuracy of your scale. It is recommended to calibrate the scale periodically or if you suspect inaccurate readings. You will need a known calibration weight (e.g., 500g) for this process.

SF-400D Scale Calibration Display

Figuur 4: SF-400D display showing "CAL" during calibration mode. This image illustrates the scale's screen indicating it is in calibration mode, prompting the user to place a calibration weight.

  1. Ensure the scale is on a stable, level surface and turned off.
  2. Druk en hou die CAL knoppie, druk dan die AAN/AF button simultaneously. Release both buttons when the display shows "CAL".
  3. The display will then show a flashing weight value (e.g., "500.00g"). This is the required calibration weight.
  4. Place the exact calibration weight (e.g., 500g) onto the center of the weighing platform.
  5. Wait for the display to stabilize and show "PASS" or return to normal weighing mode. This indicates successful calibration.
  6. Remove the calibration weight. The scale is now calibrated and ready for use.
  7. If "FAIL" or an error message appears, repeat the calibration process.

6. Onderhoud

6.1. Skoonmaak

  • Vee die skaaloppervlak af met 'n sagte, effens droë lap.amp lap.
