Model 1310 Truck Scale In/Out Application User’s Manual
The keys on the front panel of the 1310 are of two types, hard keys and soft
keys. Hard keys are labeled directly and soft keys are labeled F1-F5. If a
soft key has a function, its label appears at the bottom of the display. Soft
keys function differently at different times and their labels change as
needed.
Below are brief descriptions for each of the hard key functions:
Repeatedly press the SELECT key to scroll through the
available weight reading displays. (Examples - gross,
net, tare, minimum, maximum, etc.)
For alpha entries, this key toggles UPPER/lower case
entry (if Lowercase Enable is turned on in the configura-
tion). If lower case is selected, "abc" will appear in the
upper right of the display.
Press the UNITS key to scroll through the available
units of measure (lb, kg, oz, etc.).

1310 Front Panel
The main display is a 240 x 64 dot, dot-addressable, vacuum fluorescent
display. The ability to address each of the dots individually makes this
display nearly as versatile as a computer screen. It can display graphics,
words and numbers. This flexibility allows graphics and alphanumeric
characters to be displayed at the same time.
To increase the contrast of the display, press and hold the DECIMAL POINT
and 7 keys until the desired contrast is reached. To decrease the contrast of
the display, press and hold the DECIMAL POINT and 1 keys until the
desired contrast is reached.
Plug the 1310 into an easily
accessible grounded outlet
only. Never use the unit
without an appropriate earth-
ground connection.
Any computer based system
should have a separate,
grounded power circuit. We
recommend one for the
1310.
A power surge suppression
unit is recommended between
the 1310 and AC outlet.
Use this key to toggle
UPPER and lower case
alpha characters, while
entering alphanumeric
characters.
