CubiScan 125 23
Chapter 3
Operation
This chapter provides instructions for operating the CubiScan 125.
NOTE
The CubiScan 125’s glass platform should be kept clean and free of objects that
are not being measured.
Before You Begin
Follow the procedures below to turn on the CubiScan 125. The CubiScan
125 should be turned on before you start Qbit (if applicable).
1. Make sure there are no objects on the CubiScan 125’s platform.
2. Make sure that the gate has enough room to move freely.
3. Turn on the CubiScan 125. The CubiScan 125 performs self-diagnostic
procedures that take about 5 seconds. Do not touch the CubiScan
125 platform during these 5 seconds.
4. The CubiScan 125 must be zeroed each time it is turned on. For
instructions on zeroing the CubiScan 125 see “Zeroing the CubiScan
125” on page 31.
NOTE
Do not lean on or touch the CubiScan 125 glass platform or the object while the
object is being measured and weighed. Any kind of contact with the platform
during the measurement process can alter the weight or sensor reading.
CAUTION
While the CubiScan 125 has overload protection, objects heavier than 50
pounds (25 kg) should not be placed on the platform. Overloading the
scale or shock loading (dropping a heavy object on the scale) can cause
permanent zero shift, making the scale inoperable.
