ZERO KEY
This key is used to reset the gross weight to zero. If the gross weight exceeds the preset
limit for this key, an error message will be displayed when the key is pressed. The zero limit
may be set to either 4% or 100% of scale capacity. The limit is set during setup and
calibration of the scale (see Setup and Calibration,
Z LIMIT).
UNITS
Pressing this key will change the weighing units to the alternate units if selected during the
setup and calibration of the instrument. For example; with pounds (
lb) showing, pressing
this key will change the weight units to kilograms (
kg). NOTE: This feature must be
enabled during setup and calibration of the 777 (see Setup and Calibration,
UNITS).
PRINT KEY
Pressing this key will initate the transmission of weight data via the COM 1 serial port. If
displaying gross weight, the time, date and gross weight are printed. If displaying net
weight, the time, date, gross, tare and net weights are printed. NOTE: This key will be
ignored if the weight is unstable, or the weight is less than zero.
TIME/DATE KEY
Pressing this key will change the display to the
TIME prompt and display the current time.
If the time displayed is correct, press the ENTER key. If the time displayed is incorrect, use
the alpha-numeric keypad to input the correct time, then press the ENTER key to reset the
time. In either case, after the ENTER key has been pressed, the instrument will proceed to
the
DATE
prompt and display the current date.
NOTE: The time is displayed and entered in a 24 hour format with 12 added to all times
after noon, i.e. 3 PM would be 1500.
If the date displayed is correct press the ENTER key. If the date displayed is incorrect, use
the alpha-numeric keypad to input the correct date, then press the ENTER key to reset the
date. In either case, after the
ENTER
key has been pressed, the instrument will proceed to
the Weight Screen.
NOTE: The date is displayed and entered in a MMDDYYYY, two (2) digit month, two (2)
digit day, and four (4) digit year format, i.e. July 5, 2001 would be 07052001.
FNCT
This key is used to return to the previous screen prompt. Pressing the FNCT key at any
Setup and Calibration prompt (except
INTERVAL

previous step. At the
INTERVAL prompt, pressing the FNCT key will return the
instrument to the Start Menu. In normal operation, this key is used to display the MENU
key, which when pressed allows the operator to return to the Start Menu.
NOTE: With multiple analog cards installed in the 777, the FNCT key is used to display the
scale select menu. Pressing the
FNCT
key will show the
SCL

MENU
keys. Press the
SCL key to switch to the other scale. With more than 2 analog cards installed, continued
pressing of the SCL key will toggle between the additional scales. Pressing the MENU key
