Balance Mass Entry
The following information applies to the: CAL3K-AP, CAL3K-A, CAL3K-F.
The CAL3K has a balance port.
The default baud rate of the balance port is 2400 baud. The Baud rate can be changed with a PC or from the keyboard (Password). Connect the balance via the balance interface cable (3K-1-117) to the CAL3K.
Once the cable is connected, press F5 and wait until the balance displays a stable weight. This is normally indicated by a ‘g’ in the balance display.
As soon as the balance transmits the weight it appears on the CAL3K display after the equal sign. Press Enter, this locks the mass into the top line.
