Operations
Controls
O /OFF
Press and hold this button 1 second to turn the scale on and off. The scale tests itself;
when this test is completed successfully the system begins weighing. The product I.D.
and software version number are display for a couple seconds upon power up. The
number on the left is the product ID and the number on the right is the software version
number.
UMERIC KEYPAD
Many operations require the operator to enter a number. The 10-key numeric keypad is
used to enter numbers. These keys also have specific functions (as labeled) when the
scale is in normal weighing mode.
E TER
Press the ENTER key after entering a number

CLEAR
If you want to clear the number displayed (while in the process of entering a number),
press the CLEAR key.
ZERO
Tells the scale to display zero weight. This button is used any time the scale shows a
non-zero value with no weight on the load cell. If you press ZERO with weight on the
load cell, that weight becomes the zero condition for the scale. This can be useful to
cancel the weight of any weighing fixtures, such as barrels or boxes. When this weight
is removed, a negative number is displayed until the system is re-zeroed.
The 'zero' command will be delayed any time a change in weight is detected. While the
scale is stabilizing, the display will show “ -0-
-0- -0-
-0- “. If there is continuous motion for about
15 seconds, the zero command will be rejected and the scale will return to normal
weighing.
AZT (Auto Zero Tracking)
This system contains a feature called Auto Zero Tracking (AZT), which corrects
slight zero changes during normal operation. If small weights are added while
the display is at or near zero, the scale may zero them off.
ET/GROSS
Toggles the readout between net weight and gross weight. Net weight applies only
when there is a tare set. The indicator on the left side shows if the PW 00 is displaying
gross or net weight.
Net = Gross – Tare
Notes: The weight will always be net when in pieces unit.
If Net/Gross key is pressed when a total is set the error message “ E-2
E-2E-2
E-2 “ will be
displayed. You must clear the current total before toggling N T/GROSS.
TARE
Use this button to read a tare weight into memory. This tare weight will be subtracted
from the gross weight, giving you the net weight. This is useful for canceling the weight
of a container used in weighing. A segment in the lower left corner of the display shows
that the net weight is being calculated. You may press the TARE SET/DISPLAY button
to show the tare weight anytime the scale is in net mode; the tare weight will show while
you press the button. To clear the tare press the TARE and CLEAR keys
simultaneously. Tare does not function in pieces unit.
Notes: The 'tare' command will be delayed any time a change in weight is detected. If
there is continuous motion for more than 20 or 30 seconds, the tare command
will be rejected and the scale will return to normal weighing.
Tare does not function in pieces unit.

Rev O, January, 200
PRESET TARE
Pressing the PRESET TARE key will bring up a screen that allows the user to enter a
tare value. Enter the tare value using the numeric keypad and then press ENTER. To
clear the tare press the TARE and CLEAR keys simultaneously.
Notes: Tare does not function in pieces unit.
U ITS/PIECES
Toggles the weighing system between pound (English), and kilogram (SI metric), and
‘pieces’ (quantity of items) units of measure. When you press this switch, the system
switches to the nearest comparable value in the selected system. The current unit of
measure is shown by indicator segments on the left side of the main display.
Note: An error message “ E-2
E-2E-2
E-2 “ will be displayed if the UNIT/PI C S key is pressed
when there is a total saved. You must clear the current total before toggling
N T/GROSS.
SAMPLE
Sample is used to so you can view the weight in pieces. Place a number of items on the
scale. A good rule of thumb is to place 3%-5% of the total number of pieces you intend
to weigh. With a known quantity of items on the scale press the SAMPLE key. Enter
the number of items on the scale. The sample measurement is saved in the scale’s
memory. The scale will switch to the unit ‘pieces’ and display the number of pieces on
the scale. To clear the sample measurement saved in memory, press the SAMPLE and
CLEAR keys simultaneously.
APW
APW is the abbreviation of Average Piece Weight. Press the APW key. Enter the
average weight of one piece. The scale switches to ‘pieces’ unit and displays the
number of pieces on the scale. To clear the APW press the APW and CLEAR keys
simultaneously.
If you need to enter piece weights less than 1 lb or 1 kg, see the APW decimal position
section in ‘Calibration’. This can setup your PW 00 to record APW’s by tenths (1
decimal place) or by hundredths (2 decimal places).

TOTAL
This function is used to record an accumulated total. When you press the TOTAL key,
the weight that is to be added to the accumulated total will blink for about 5 seconds. To
add this to the total, press the TOTAL key again before the value stops blinking. The
accumulated total will be displayed for about 2 seconds and return to the previous
weighing mode.
If you just want to view the total, press and hold the TOTAL key for about 3 seconds.
The weight will be displayed until you release the key. To clear the accumulated total,
press the TOTAL and CLEAR keys simultaneously.
Note: You must clear the total before switching units or toggling N T/GROSS.
PEAK HOLD
The peak hold feature will remember the maximum weight applied. While in peak mode
it will not display any weight less than the maximum weight. To turn on the peak mode
press PEAK, to turn off the peak mode press PEAK again. The peak indicator will be
blinking if in peak mode. To clear the current peak weight, press the ZERO key.
Note: When you turn off the peak mode, the current peak weight will still be
remembered internally. This will show up if you then turn the peak mode back on.
Press Z RO while in peak mode (or turn the scale off) to clear the current peak
weight.
PRI T
If the scale is configured to demand output, pressing this key will print a ticket. NOT :
The print ticket will be delayed any time a change in weight is detected. If there is
continuous motion for more than 20 or 30 seconds, the print request will be rejected and
the scale will return to normal weighing. Also see Serial Output section.
SET POI T 1
This is an optional feature that allows for an external set point. When the specified
weight (set point) is reached, a logic level high will be on the set point connection. Set
points are used with some other device (e.g. alarm, relay) in conjunction to the PW 00.
To activate a set point, press the Set Point 1 (or Set Point 2) key. Enter the weight you
want the set point to activate.
SET POI T 2
Operates the same as Set Point 1.

Power/Batteries
To change batteries:
1. Loosen the two "quarter-turn" connectors on the back of the control box.
2. Pull the cover back and change the cells, being careful to note battery orientation.
3. Replace the cover and tighten the quarter-turn connectors.
Warning: If you have the optional charger, do not plug the charger in while there
are standard ‘D’ cells inside. This could result in damage to the batteries and
your scale.
The typical recharge time for Ni-cad cells is 16 hours. The rechargeable batteries have a life
span up to 1000 cycles.
