14 DC-100 Operation Manual
3.0 Configuration Settings
This section presents the setup and configuration of the 920i counting scale to be used specifically by distributors
and service technicians. Configuring these specifications allow you to tailor the
920i to your specific
applications.
Setting the specifications allows you to modify the functionality of the 920i. Use the tables in this section to view
the options you can modify. For example, if you want to activate the DC-100’s Job Sequence function, refer to
the DC-100 specification table and locate
SPEC 13 - Job Sequence. The default for SPEC 13 is 0 which means it is
disabled. To turn it on or enable it, change the SPEC setting to 1: Enable.
3.1 Configuring Specification 141 and 142 Settings from the Scale Keyboard
The following tables list the 920i specifications and their corresponding default values. The default values are
automatically set when the scale’s memory is set by the dealer for the country of operation.
SPEC 00 through SPEC 65 (Table 3-1) are customer specifications and use the 141 access code, while SPEC 600
through SPEC 646 (Table 3-2) are weight and measurement specifications, and use the 142 access code. In
programming specifications, the * PRINT and – (minus) keys allow you to move to the next or previous
specification without saving changes to the SPEC code you were just in.
3.1.1 Customer Specification (141 Settings)
1. To configure customer specifications, press and hold the REZERO key and enter 141 using the numeric
keypad. The first SPEC code, SPEC 0 is displayed, with
SP0: AUTO POWER SAVING appearing in the first
line of the weight display and its current setting (ex. 00>0: Disable) appearing in the second line.
If this is the SPEC that you want to modify, press >> or << keys to scroll through the possible settings.
When the setting you want to store is displayed, press the + (plus) key to enter the change into temporary
memory and move to the next SPEC code.
2. If you want to modify a SPEC other than SPEC 00 and you know the number of that SPEC code, enter
the number of the SPEC code on the numeric keypad and press the * PRINT key. Otherwise, you can use
the + (plus) and – (minus) keys to scroll through the specifications until you find the one you want. Then
make your changes per the instructions in Step 1.
3. To change another SPEC code before exiting, repeat Steps 1 and 2.
4. To save all the changed SPEC settings currently in temporary memory and exit to the Operation Mode,
press the CODE key. You will hear a long beep to confirm that the scale is saving the change. The saving
of the configuration file takes about 10 seconds, after which the scale will return to the Stand-By mode.
To exit to the Operation Mode without saving the changes, press the
TAR E key.
If you power off the scale while the saving process in going on, you can clear the entire memory of the
scale! Wait until the scale has returned to the Stand-by screen before performing any other functions.
5.Power down scale using the power switch on the back of the bottom of the scale, not the
ON/OFF key on the keyboard.
6. Power scale on to re-initialize the new specification settings.
