1. INTENDED USE Mass comparators are devices designed for determining the differences between masses of calibration weight (B) and reference weight (A). Comparators are most often used in measuring laboratories for calibration of weights and masses. Radwag offers comparators designed for calibration of weights and masses class M1 according to OIML R111. 2. PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES A. Please, read carefully this user manual before and use the device according to its intended use; B.
• Inappropriate cleaning. E. Forfeiture of warranty appears after: • Access by an unauthorized service, • Intrusion into mechanical or electronic construction of unauthorized people, • Installing another operating system, • Removing or destroying protection stickers. F. The detailed warranty conditions one can find in warranty certificate. G. Contact with the central authorized service: +48 48 384 88 00 ext. 106 or 107. 4.
4.1. Comparator WPY/KB – preparation for work Comparators of WPY/KB series, because of its construction (sensitive strain gauges), require appropriate conditions to work properly, including stable temperature. Temperature drifts in rooms with comparators should not exceed 1°C per hour. Proceeding in case of preparing the comparator to work: 1. After unpacking and taking off transport protections put the scale in the destination place and level the komparator platform. 2.

36. APPENDIX C – Label pattern A label pattern can be created in 2 ways: • From the terminal level using variables, • Using PC software EDYTOR ETYKIET R01. A created project needs to be saved as an „lb” file then copied on a pendrive that can be connected to the terminal. Finally transfer the file to the database in the scale. While a label is in the database of labels it can be ascribed to products or/and contractors in order to work in labelling mode. 36.1.
36.2. Designing a label on a computer Example: Let us create a label pattern for the label below: Notice: The installer of EDYTOR ETYKIET R01 is accessible to download on website: www.radwag.com. on the overlap: Products / Measuring indicators / PUE7. Procedure: 1. Run software EDYTOR ETYKIET R01, 2. The following window appears: 3. Select the type of printer to cooperate with the scale and press the key .
Notice: Before starting the design process the label and printer parameters need to be set. The settings are described in the file: Help / Help / Program options / Settings. 4. To add a text in the label click on . Then following window appears: 5. In write the text: PORK CHARCUTERIE SMITH&SMITH Ltd, and confirm with the key . Then put it in the appropriate place of the label.
6. Click on the key confirm by pressing and in the field inscribe: {4} (date & time), and place it in the right place, 7. Place other texts and variables on the label in the same way as the one shown above. 8. Click on and expand list in opened window “Add graphics”: 9. Selected the required <*.bmp> file, confirm it with and put the draft in the proper place of the label. Notice: <*.bmp> on the label is printed after the draft is sent to printer memory.
11. In place write variable: {7:V6.3} (net mass for EAN13, 6-character code with three decimal characters), confirm it by pressing then place the code in the right place in the label. 12. Record the design of the label by selecting in software menu and then . Notice: Recorded patterns of labels in files with *.lb extension are not editable. This is advisable to record designs of labels in files with *.
36.4. Attributing a label to a product Procedure: • Enter < • Enter < Databases> according to ch. 27 of this manual, Products> and press the required item. Label>, then the database of labels is open with the list • Enter < of all labels, • Choose the required label. The program automatically ascribes the label to the product. 36.5. Attributing a label to a contractor Procedure: • Enter < Databases> according to ch.
2. Users can perform the test label printout – see ch. 27.5 of this manual. 37.
39. APPENDIX F - Communication with barcode scanners 1. For communication with barcode scanners RADWAG scales use RS232 interfaces and simplex transmission (one direction) without handshaking. Only two wires are required for assuring such a transmission. Used scanners should be equipped in such interface with disabled both hardware and software handshaking. 2. Both scales and scanners have the possibility of setting of transmission parameters.
