What to do if OHAUS Scales cannot calibrate?
If your OHAUS Scales are failing to calibrate, consider the following: * **Calibration Masses:** Ensure you are using the correct calibration masses. * **Transducer Connection:** Verify that the transducer is properly connected. * **Transducer Defect:** A defective transducer may prevent calibration; consider replacing it. * **PC Board Defect:** A defective PC board may also be the reason.
How to fix 'Low BAT' display on OHAUS Scales?
If your OHAUS Scales are displaying a 'Low BAT' message, here's what you can do: * **Battery Replacement:** The battery may be weak and needs replacing. * **AC Adapter:** The AC adapter could be defective, requiring replacement. * **PC Board:** In some instances, a defective PC board may be the cause.
How to troubleshoot no display on OHAUS Scales?
If your OHAUS Scales display is not working, here are a few things to check: * **Power:** Ensure the AC adapter is properly connected. * **Power Jack:** The power jack might be defective and need replacement. * **Battery:** If the battery is weak, replace it. Also, check the battery connector for poor contact; clean or replace it if necessary. * **PC Board:** In some cases, the PC board may be defective and require replacement.
Why are the readings on my OHAUS Scales inaccurate?
Inaccurate readings on your OHAUS Scales can stem from several causes: * **Calibration:** Improper span or linearity calibration can lead to inaccuracies. Perform the calibration procedure. * **Rezeroing:** Ensure the scales are rezeroed before each weighing. Press the ReZero On button with no weight on the platform, then weigh. * **Transducer:** A defective transducer may cause incorrect readings, and it would need replacement. * **PC Board:** A defective PC board may also be the reason.
Why are the readings fluctuating on my OHAUS Scales?
Fluctuating readings on your OHAUS Scales can be attributed to: * **Environment:** An unstable environment can cause fluctuations. Check the area for vibrations, leveling issues, and drafts. * **Debris:** Debris inside the balance can interfere with readings; disassemble and clean if necessary. * **PC Board:** A defective PC board may be the cause and require replacement. * **Transducer:** A defective transducer may also cause the issue.
Why do OHAUS Scales always display zero?
If your OHAUS Scales are stuck displaying zero, here are possible reasons: * **Power Surge:** A power surge might have occurred; perform linearity and span calibration. * **Down Stop:** The down stop may be improperly set; adjust it per specifications. * **Transducer Connection:** The transducer might not be connected; plug it in. * **Transducer Defect:** The transducer could be defective and need replacement. * **PC Board:** A defective PC board may also be the reason.
What does an error signal on OHAUS Scales mean?
An error signal on your OHAUS Scales could indicate: * **Calibration Issues:** The balance may be improperly calibrated; calibrate the balance. * **Overload:** The scales may be overloaded; inspect and correct the load. * **Transducer:** A defective transducer might be the cause, needing replacement. * **PC Board:** The PC board could be defective and require replacement.
Why is the display drifting on my OHAUS Scales?
A drifting display on your OHAUS Scales can occur due to: * **Warm-up Time:** The balance may not have warmed up sufficiently; allow the balance to stabilize. * **Transducer:** A defective transducer might be the cause and needs replacing. * **PC Board:** The PC Board could be defective.
Why do OHAUS Scales display underweight readings?
If your OHAUS Scales are displaying underweight readings, consider the following: * **Calibration:** Improper span or linearity calibration may be the cause; perform the calibration procedure. * **Transducer:** A defective transducer may lead to underweight readings and require replacement. * **PC board:** A defective PC board may also be the reason. * **Down Stop:** The down stop may be improperly set; set it per specifications.
Why do OHAUS Scales stay in segment check?
If your OHAUS Scales remain in segment check, it could be due to: * **Weak Battery:** Replace the battery. * **PC Board:** The PC Board may be defective and require replacement.
