    What does ANALOG LOW mean on Cardinal Accessories?
    • L
      lindseyrodriguezAug 28, 2025
      The 'ANALOG LOW' error on your Cardinal Accessories means the load cell input is below the allowed range of the indicator. Check for improper load cell wiring and ensure the output is between 1 to 40mV. If the issue continues, it could be a load cell or circuit failure, requiring assistance from your scale service provider.

    Why does my Cardinal Accessories scale say UNSTABLE?
    • S
      Shawn HarrisonAug 27, 2025
      The 'UNSTABLE' message on your Cardinal Accessories scale indicates motion is present when trying to power up, print, zero, or perform a push-button tare. Wait for a stable weight display (when the STABLE symbol is on) before performing any of these operations.

    What does OVERFLOW mean on my Cardinal Accessories scale?
    • D
      Donald GuerreroAug 26, 2025
      The 'OVERFLOW' error on your Cardinal Accessories scale means the indicator is trying to display a positive number with more than seven digits, or a negative number with more than six digits. Return to Gross Weight mode and check the Tare value. This may also indicate miscalibration.

    What to do if Cardinal Accessories shows an ERROR message?
    • M
      Margaret LeeAug 25, 2025
      If your Cardinal Accessories displays an ERROR message, it means an invalid keypad entry was attempted. This could be due to several reasons: * Pressing PRINT with a negative weight. * Pressing TARE with a negative value. * Entering a tare weight exceeding the scale's capacity. * Entering a tare weight inconsistent with the scale's division value. * Pressing ZERO when the gross weight is outside the zero weight range. * Pressing lb/kg to switch to kilograms when the kilogram tare weight exceeds 4 digits. Determine which of these reasons applies and take corrective action.
