3.1.2 Weight and Measurement Specification (142 Settings)
1. Press and hold the REZERO key and enter 142 using the numeric keypad. SP600 appears in weight display
and its current setting (ex. 2>2: LB) appearing in the second line. If this is the SPEC that you want to
modify, press the
>> 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 600 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. To exit to the Operation Mode without saving the changes, press the TARE key.
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.
73 Print Barcode
This option allows you to print barcodes on labels with all the headers printed, with no headers
printed, or with all the headers except the header for the Quantity barcode on label formats with
barcode headers included.
0: With Header (DEFAULT)
1: All Without Header
74 Overwrite Unit Weight
Allows you to protect the Unit Weight so that it cannot be overwritten by the operator. Note that
SPEC 04 - Set New Item Code During Registration Mode must be set to 0: Allow (Save) for the new
Unit Weight to overwrite the Unit Weight stored in memory with the Item Code. If SPEC 04 is set to 1:
Allow (Not Save), this SPEC will allow you to enter or change a Unit Weight in operation mode but
does not change the Unit Weight stored in memory.
0: No (DEFAULT)
1: Yes (If Unit Weight = 0)
