What to do if HBM Scales unit switches itself on or consumes too much standby current?
Ensure the level is clearly high (>4 V) or low (
What to do if HBM Scales zeroing is unsuccessful?
If zeroing is unsuccessful, remove any disturbing influences on the scale, such as vibrations or wind. You can also try setting a higher filter and observing the zero setting range, which is 2% of the nominal weight.
What to do if HBM WE2108 show measured value below the minimum display range?
For net display issues where the measured value is below the minimum display range, switch over to gross or recalibrate the scale.
What to do if HBM WE2108 display 'Sum overflow'?
If a 'Sum overflow' error occurs, delete the sums.
What to do if my HBM counting scale shows that the weight of the reference quantity is too low?
If the weight of the reference quantity is too low on your counting scale, use a larger reference quantity, aiming for at least 1/10 000 of the nominal range.
What to do if HBM WE2108 show that the entered value is larger than the setting range of the parameter?
If the entered value exceeds the parameter's setting range, repeat the entry while observing the correct setting range.
What to do if HBM WE2108 show 'Overflow of the calibration counter'?
Repair the unit.
What to do if HBM Scales show 'Overrun of the interface'?
Test the baud rate setting on both the WE2108 and the connected unit.
What to do if HBM Scales show 'Temperature compensation faulty'?
Repair the unit.
What to do if HBM WE2108 show 'Error on writing into the non-volatile memory'?
Test the supply voltage for losses.
