Key Description

Key Description

Press the button in the weighing state，press “start”key，start working.

Press the button in the weighing state，press “stop”key，stop working.

Press the“menu”key in the weighing state 8seconds Enter the setting operation of the
configuration parameters.

In the weighing state，press 5 seconds，Enter the calibration operation。

In the weighing state,press 8 seconds,Enter the ingredient value of the ingredient,

drop the difference, and automatically follow the parameter setting.

After the data is input, press this button and the meter will store the entered value in
memory.

Return to the previous interface function, do not save any parameters when returning.

For example, the tare/zero button is valid only when the 0 button is pressed on the
main page (weighing page), and the zero tare/zero button is directly pressed to zero.
Must be on the main interface, the working state is 0, zero, and tare invalid.

mode: batching is completed, manual unloading is completed, and unloading is completed automatically.
Semi-manual state: the ingredients are completed, no unloading, return to the main interface.

Chapter 3 Installation process description

1. Before connecting the sensor cable, please check whether the four corners of the sensor on the
weighing hopper are level, and the screw engagement part of the sensor should not exceed the upper
plane of the S-type sensor during installation.
2. Please connect the system three-phase incoming line and motor output line to the controller
reliably.
3. Connect the sensor cable and the hand-held box to the computer-side air connector.
4, the above process can be checked if it is correct, and the formula and calibration scale can be set.

Ingredients 1 error
An ingredient error indicates that the
Ingredients 2 error weight of the actual ingredient is

Ingredients 3 error greater than or less than one-half of

the set value.
Ingredients 4 error

Note：During the operation of all the buttons, if the operation is wrong, the error LED on the display
panel will be illuminated. If the password is entered incorrectly, press any key and then re-enter. If it is
the start of the ingredient, the error is because the ingredient value is not set.
6.2、Troubleshooting
（1）Failure analysis that cannot be returned to zero after weighing
In the case of ensuring that the sensor output is normal (the scale body is stable), generally the zero
point range setting is too small, and the zero point range should be set larger.
（2）Inaccurate fault analysis
Observe whether the internal code value is stable, whether there is friction in all parts of the sensor,
whether the stabilized power supply is stable, whether the operational amplifier circuit is normal, and
whether the weight of the four-legged weighing pan is averaged using the weight. Further instrumental
analysis or weight correction according to the instructions.
（3）Unable to boot
First determine the problem of non-fuse, power switch, power line and voltage switch, check the
transformer for AC voltage input and AC output. Secondly, check whether the rectifier circuit, the
voltage regulator circuit and the display driver circuit are abnormal. If there is no problem, check
whether the processor and the auxiliary circuit are burnt out.
（4）Show garbled
Remove the original display circuit and change to a normal display circuit to see if it is normal. If
the display is normal, the display circuit has a problem. If it is not normal, check the driver circuit for
faults. Finally, check if the processor shows that the output pin is in a reasonable output range.
（5）Can't be called full
Similar to the situation where it is impossible to return to zero, most of them may be changed due to

17
 PLY900 Indicator

the small signal input range or the range setting is not set correctly. According to the method that cannot
be returned to zero, if the problem cannot be found, first check whether the power supply, A/D circuit is
normal, the range setting is normal, and then detect the sensor output.
