Before replacing disconnect device from the power supply!


Step 1 Unscrew the top floor

Step 5 Set new sensor

Pay special attention to the direction! The beam has an arrow drawn on it. This arrow should point down and be on the opposite side of the mounting screws to the frame! (see photo below)
On the front of the device, the arrow should be on the left and on the back on the right.

  • first place the beams in their final positions
  • screw the first one (closer to the front door)
  • then the second one at the back similarly to the description (on the back it is on the other side)

Step 9 Wieght calibration

Full calibration is required after load cell replacement. THIS IS A DIFFERENT CALIBRATION THAN ZERO CALIBRATION FROM THE MENU. Right now there is no possible full calibration from user menu.

Calibration consists of 4 stages
1. empty beam
2. load placed at the back
3. load placed in the middle
4. load placed at the front
