Changing Weighing Modes
Your scanning-scale has been programmed for weighing in either pounds or kilograms
depending upon the initial operating environment that was specified when you ordered your
scanning-scale. If you need to change from pounds to kilograms or vice-versa, call
Technical
Support
.
You can verify that the scale is set correctly for your country’s requirements by observing that
the
Remote Scale Display shows the appropriate measurement symbol (lb or kg) when the
power-up Selftest is completed.
Any time the scale weighing mode is changed, the scale must be
re-calibrated before commercial use.
Set-Up & Installation
These setup and installation procedures assume that you have already prepared your checkstand
to receive the scanner or scanning-scale. If you have not already made the counter cutout and
routed power and interface cables, do so now as described in the previous instructions. If your
checkstand has been prepared, proceed as follows:
Set-up
1. Place the unit on the checkstand next to the counter cutout.
2. Route the cables up through the cutout and connect the scanner and scale interface
cable(s),
and Remote Scale Display cable (optional) to the scanner. Some POS terminals
require two interface cables; one for the scanner interface and one for the scale interface.
Refer to
Figure 31 for cable connection locations. The appearance of the connector panel
will vary depending upon the factory options purchased with your model.
If you have a scanner with no scale, there will be
only one interface cable to the POS terminal.
3. Connect the power cord to the scanner and route the other end down through the check-
stand to the AC power outlet. DO NOT plug the power cord in at this time.
4. OPTIONAL — Route your EAS antenna cable down through the checkstand cutout.

Reference your EAS controller’s set-up instructions for proper EAS antenna installation.)
