| | Possible Cause | Solution | | --- | --- | --- | | Scale won't turn on | No power or faulty power connection | - Check if the power cord is firmly plugged into both the scale and the wall outlet. - Test the wall outlet with another device. - Check any fuses or circuit breakers in your building. | | Inaccurate weighing | - Scale not on a firm, level surface - Overloading beyond capacity - Calibration error | - Ensure the scale is on a stable, vibration-free counter. - Remove the item and ensure the weight does not exceed the scale's max capacity (e.g., 15kg or 30kg). - Perform a calibration procedure as described in the service manual. | | Poor print quality (streaks) | - Dirty print head - Wrong paper type | - Clean the thermal print head with isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth. - Ensure you are using high-quality, high-sensitivity direct thermal paper recommended by Digi. | | Printer won't print | - No paper - Paper jam - Cutter is stuck | - Check and replace the paper roll. - Open the printer cover, remove any jammed paper, and reinstall the roll. - If the cutter is stuck, power cycle the scale to reset its position. | | Network connection fails | - Loose cable - Incorrect network settings | - Verify the Ethernet cable is securely connected to both the scale and your network router/switch. - Check the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings in the scale's network configuration menu. | | Error message on display | - Various system alerts | - Write down the exact error code or message. - Refer to the 'Troubleshooting' section of the user manual for a specific resolution. | Place the item firmly in the center of the weighing platter
Insert a new roll, ensuring the thermal side (printable side) faces the print head. Feed the label edge through the auto-cutter and sensors.
: The scale automatically cuts the label to match the amount of data, meaning no more fixed-length gaps or wasted paper.
: Input product descriptions, trace codes, packed-on dates, custom shelf-life expiration settings, and nutritional allergen data. Proper setup is crucial for reliable operation
: Toggle the main power switch located beneath the chassis base. The Linux/Windows-embedded PC architecture will initialize the operator screen.
: Tap the Registration button at any time to return to the active operator weighing screen. Step-by-Step PLU Programming
: Once the weight stabilizes, the scale will automatically print the label (if in "Auto" mode) or wait for you to press the [PRINT] key. 4. Daily Maintenance
Close the print head mechanism lever firmly until it clicks.
: Uses RFID technology for "tap-to-login" clerk identification, removing the need to manually type in passwords. Hi-Touch Technology
