MAINTENANCE
FarmScale mod. 800 does not require any regular maintenance, however it is necessary to
check the conditions of the weighing system periodically.
1) Make sure that there are no disturbing elements between the supporting chassis and the
platform or the container, the basin, the feeder, etc.
2) Make sure that the load cells are not damaged (no cracks nor dents), not rusty, not corroded
by acids.
3) Make sure that there is enough space between the chassis and the components of the
weighing system; lubricate if necessary.
4) Make a test: load a weight on each corner, the displayed amount must be nearly the same.
5) Make sure that the connectors are tight and that the cables are undamaged (no cuts nor
abrasions). Remember that, where food is stored or handled, small rodents often gnaw
cables which are situated in hidden or scarcely reachable places.
6) heck that there is no oxidation nor humidity on the connecting points.
7) Do not install the device near heat sources (radiators/oil tanks). Do not fix it on surfaces
with strong vibrations.
DISPOSAL OF THE DEVICE
SAFETY REGULATIONS FOR SYSTEM INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
- Install only when power supply is disconnected.
- Do not install the device near heat sources or near strong magnetic fields.
- Disconnect the power supply cable from the weight indicator when you need to recharge the
battery of the means of transport.
- Immediately disconnect the power supply cable if the cables or the connectors are stripped
or damaged, if the system has particular problems or if there is liquid/humidity in the device.
- The tension should stay between 12V and 14V to avoid damaging the other parts of the
system. The device works correctly with tensions between 10V and 24V.
- Before cleaning the machine with high pressure waterjets, disconnect the cables, remove the
weight indicator from the machine and protect the connectors of the cables from water seepage.
Pay attention that the load cells, the junction box, the alarm and other accessories are not
exposed to direct waterjets.
If the device needs to be cleaned, use soft and lightly humid cloths.
Do not use sprays, solvents, abrasives, sharp or cutting objects which could damage the case.
- Do not open the device, to avoid losing the warranty right. For maintenance/reparation, address
to our company or to technical authorized staff.
- Before doing any welding on the machine, disconnect the cables.
To prevent welding current from passing through load cells, it is necessary to shortcircuit the
body of the load cells with a cable with adequate section and the earth of the welder must be
connected near the point where you weld.
This symbol, present on the product or on the handbook, indicates that the product
cannot be thrown together with household garbage (European Directive 2012/19/EU).
The final user has to dispose of the device at a gathering place for recycling and
disposal of electrical and electronical devices. The separate refuse collection and
the correct recycling of the devices allow to protect the health of people and
ecosystem. For further information concerning gathering points for devices, contact
the local authority for the disposal of garbage or the distributor where the product
has been purchased.

BATTERY TEST
The battery test should be made periodically (entering voltage level to FarmScale mod. 800).
To carry out this test, when you are in total weight mode, keep the key pressed;
"volts" with the voltage value of power supply will be displayed and the alarm will sound
intermittently. Press once again to have the direct weight reading.

CONNECTIONS
The device has got three connectors. From left to right: a 5 pin connector for the connection
of the extension cable (LOAD ELLS), an optional 7 pin connector for the connection of
remote displays (STARBUS), a 3 pin connector for the connection of the power supply and
alarm cable (POWER).
Before making connections, make sure that the device and the possible peripherals are off.
Before introducing any connector, make sure it is the right one and then connect it adequately,
otherwise damages to the device could occur.
After having introduced the connector, screw the fixing ring.
To disconnect the cables from the plugs, rotate the upper ring anticlockwise, keeping the
lower ring steady. Pull out the connector. Do not pull the cable directly.

USE AS SIMPLE WEIGHT INDICATOR
Switch the indicator on with the key and wait for a few seconds. After the HELLO
message, the indicator shows the model and the version and prepares itself for direct reading.
(In case of interruption of the ration execution, the device could switch off; the indicator would
then switch on again showing the loadings to be completed). Load and you will immediately
read the value corresponding to the loaded weight.
NB: in the beginning it might be necessary to adjust the zero, because the mechanical parts
of the system need some time to settle.
ZEROING (TARE)
Switch the indicator on, after a few seconds a value will be displayed. Keep the key
pressed until the display shows the message tArE. The indicator goes automatically to zero.
PARTIAL WEIGHINGS
To make loading of different ingredients easier, without using the alarm, press .
The display will visualize "0" with an indicator which will set on NET. Load the ingredient,
press again and the indicator will move to TOTAL so that the total loaded weight will
be shown. Follow this procedure for all the partial weighings (loading and unloading).
SELECTION OF FUNCTIONS
To pass from a function to another one you only need to press the key .
The fixed indicator will move every time to indicate the selected function:
TOTAL / EXE UT / PROGRAM / A UM.
USE WITH QUICK ALARM (SET/RECALL)
FarmScale mod. 800 gives the possibility to set loading/unloading values with alarm (you
do not need to programme recipes). To set a value, press the key and use the keys
to increase the digits and to select the digits. In the end press to
confirm the value. Proceed with loading or unloading.
Load; the value on the display will decrease in proportion to the loaded amount.
When 85% of the load has been reached, you will hear an intermittent signal: load
with care. When 100% has been reached, you will hear a continuous signal: stop
loading immediately.
In this mode the weight indicator stores the individual weighings which can be recalled by
pressing repeatedly the key .
While setting the value to program, keeping the key or pressed,
you can pass to the setting mode with direct increase/decrease of the displayed value.

PROGRAMMING RATIONS
FarmScale Mod. 800 has a memory able to store programmes of 20 recipes of 20 ingredients
each, which can be used for loading and unloading.
When executing the ration, the indicator automatically recognizes if a loading or unloading
is being carried out (LOAD/UNLO announcers); there will be an alarm both for loading and
for unloading. It is therefore possible to use the programming of recipes to manage different
unloading groups, too.
There are two different ways of setting the programming:
- in total values (the ingredients are expressed in total kilos)
- proportional to the number of animals (the ingredients are expressed per animal)
The user should prepare a list of all the ingredients with their values in order to program the
recipe in a correct way.
PROGRAMMING LOADING IN TOTAL VALUES
The ingredients are introduced in total Kg. After the ration has been entered, before executing
it, it is still possible to change the total value with automatic adaptation of components.
e.g. - program the recipe n. 1 composed of the following ingredients: n. 1 of 110 kg, n. 2 of
225 kg and n. 3 of 1120 kg. Proceed in this way: switch on the indicator and wait for a few
seconds.
