How to fix OHAUS Adventurer Scales when there is no display?
- PpjonesAug 21, 2025
If there is no display, it is likely the power adapter is not connected. Connect the AC adapter.
How to fix OHAUS Adventurer Scales when there is no display?
If there is no display, it is likely the power adapter is not connected. Connect the AC adapter.
What to do if OHAUS Adventurer Scales calibration procedure does not work?
If the calibration procedure isn't working, it might be due to using incorrect calibration masses. Make sure you use the correct masses.
What to do if my OHAUS Adventurer Scales will not turn on?
If your OHAUS Scales are not turning on, the issue is likely a power problem. Verify the power connection and voltage to ensure the scales are receiving power.
Why can't I calibrate my OHAUS Scales?
Several factors can prevent calibration of your OHAUS Scales. Here are a few things to check: * Ensure the Calibration Menu lock is off. * Confirm that Approved Mode is off. * Make sure the environment is stable; relocate the scales if necessary. * Verify that you are using the correct calibration masses.
How to display weight in a particular weighing unit on OHAUS Adventurer Scales?
If you're unable to display weight in a particular weighing unit, the unit might not be activated in the menu. Use the Units menu to set the desired units ON; refer to the menu for instructions.
Why are my OHAUS Scales showing poor accuracy?
Poor accuracy with your OHAUS Scales can stem from a couple of causes. First, the scales may need calibration. Try performing a calibration. Second, an unstable environment can affect accuracy. Relocate the scales to a more suitable, stable location.
What does 'Low Reference weight' mean on my OHAUS Adventurer, and how to fix it?
A 'Low Reference weight' message on your OHAUS Scales means the reference weight is too small. Increase the sample size to resolve this.
What does 'Invalid Piece Weight' mean on my OHAUS Adventurer Scales, and how to resolve it?
An 'Invalid Piece Weight' message on your OHAUS Scales indicates that the average piece weight is too small. To fix this, increase the average piece weight.
Why do OHAUS Scales show Err 8.4?
Err 8.4 indicates an over or under load. This happens when the sample being weighed exceeds the capacity of the balance, or the balance may be incorrectly calibrated. Recalibrate the balance to resolve this.
Why do OHAUS Adventurer give incorrect weight readings?
Incorrect weight readings can occur if the balance is out of calibration or was not re-zeroed before weighing. Calibrate the balance. Also, press >O/T< with no weight on the pan before weighing the item.
