Quick Start

To operate the DS-220 as a basic weigh scale, perform the following steps:

Setup

1. Unpack the scale as described in the “Unpacking the DS-220” section below.

2. Install the batteries into the control box as described in the “Battery Installation” section

below.

3. Place the Weighing Platform on a firm, level surface.

4. Turn the DS-220 on by pressing .

5. If desired, turn on the backlight by momentarily pressing .

6. Select the weigh mode by repeatedly pressing . The mode indicators will cycle as

follows:

WEIGHT èVOLUME èVOLUME SPECIFIC GRAVITY èCOUNT.

7. In Weight or Volume mode, select the proper measurement units by repeated pressing .

The units will cycle as follows for each corresponding mode:

WEIGHT:

kilograms èpounds èpounds and ounces èounces

VOLUME (and VOLUME SPECIFIC GRAVITY):

liters ègallons èfluid ounces

8. In Weight or Volume mode, select the desired display resolution by repeatedly pressing

as described in the RESOLUTION section.

9. If in Volume Specific Gravity Mode, adjust the Specific Gravity as described in the

MEASURING VOLUME section.

10. If in Count mode, train the scale as described in the COUNTING section.

DS-220 User’s Guide

Basic Operation

1. If using a container to hold the objects or liquids being measured or counted, place it empty

on the center of the platform.

2. Press to “zero-out” the scale. The display will read zero.

3. Place the material to measure in the container or on the center of the platform.

4. Read the weight, volume, or number of items on the display.

5. A positive number indicates the applied weight is greater than the zero value. A negative

number indicates the applied weight is less than the zero value.

6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 as necessary.

7. Turn the DS-220 off by pressing and holding down until the scale turns off.

8. To conserve battery life, the DS-220 will turn itself off after 30 minutes of inactivity, unless it is

currently running a program (see Programming section). The last state of the DS-220 will be

restored upon power-up.

Unpacking the DS-220

1. Remove the DS-220 from the carry case.

2. Remove the control box from the storage dock in right side of the weighing platform by pulling

the control box firmly from the dock.

3. Unwrap the coiled cord from around the weighing platform. When using the DS-220, ensure

the coiled cord does not touch the top of the weighing platform, or inaccuracies may result.

4. If desired, extend the easel at the top back of the control box by pulling it out. The easel may

be used straight for hanging, or folded at an angle for resting on a level surface.

Repacking the DS-220

1. Restore the easel to the retracted position.

2. Wrap the coiled cord counter-clockwise around the weighing platform.

3. Push the control box firmly into the storage dock of the weighing platform until it snaps in

place.

4. Replace the DS-220 into the carry case.

DS-220 User’s Guide

Battery Installation & Replacement

1. Remove the battery cover from the rear of the control box by compressing tab at the base of

the battery cover.

2. If necessary, remove old set of batteries.

3. Insert 4 ‘AAA’ Alkaline batteries. Replace battery cover by aligning tabs and snapping back

into place.

IMPORTANT: TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE DS-220, CAREFULLY OBSERVE BATTERY

POLARITY AS MARKED INSIDE THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT. DO NOT LEAVE DEAD

BATTERIES INSIDE THE CONTROL BOX. REMOVE BATTERIES IF THE DS-220 IS NOT TO

BE USED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.

Resolution

The resolution (minimum incremental weight or volume) that can be displayed by the DS-220 can

be adjusted to make the display easier to read. Unstable loads or high winds can cause the

display to fluctuate erratically. By reducing the display resolution, external influences can be

minimized. As shipped, the DS-220 is set to MEDIUM resolution, suitable for most purposes. The

resolution can be changed to LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH by repeated pressing on the keypad.

Table 1 illustrates the displayed resolution for each weight and units mode vs. resolution.

Regardless of the resolution setting, the scale operates internally with the highest resolution;

therefore, only the displayed value is affected.

Over range Indication

If the weight applied to the weighing platform exceeds the maximum capacity of the DS-220 (100

kg), a single “1” will be shown on the left side of the display. To prevent damage to the DS-220,

immediately remove the weight from the platform.

Measuring Weight

Measuring Weight with the DS-220 is straight forward:

1. Set up the DS-220 as described in the QUICK START Setup section above.

2. Select WEIGHT using .

3. Select the desired units of measure using .

4. Use as necessary, and apply (or remove) weight to be measured.

Measuring Volume

The DS-220 calculates liquid volume based upon the weight of the liquid being measured. In

order for this calculation to be accurate, the specific gravity of the liquid must be known.

Specific Gravity is defined as the ratio of the density of the liquid to the density of water. Pure

water has a specific gravity of 1.000. Other liquids have a specific gravity other than 1.000. Refer

to the appendix for a list of common liquids and their corresponding specific gravities.

There are two modes of Volume measurement. The first mode, when only the VOLUME indicator

shows on the display, assumes a specific gravity of 1.000 (water). In the second mode, when

SPECIFIC GRAVITY, in addition to VOLUME, shows on the display, the specific gravity is

adjustable, allowing accurate volume measurement of any liquid. To measure liquid volume,

perform the following steps:

1. Setup the DS-220 as described in the QUICK START Setup section above.

2. Select VOLUME (if measuring water) or VOLUME SPECIFIC GRAVITY (if measuring other

than water) using .

3. Select the desired units using .

4. If using specific gravity, adjust the specific gravity shown on the ALTERNATE NUMERIC

DISPLAY by pressing and/or holding or . The specific gravity can be set faster by

pressing .

5. Proceed to measure the volume as described in the QUICK START Basic Operation section

above.

NOTE: The range of specific gravity adjustment is from 0.500 to 2.000.

DS-220 User’s Guide

Determining Specific Gravity

It is possible to determine the specific gravity of a liquid if you already know its volume. Using a

graduated container appropriate for the liquid in question, perform the following steps:

1. Ensure the DS-220 is in VOLUME SPECIFIC GRAVITY MODE (refer to the Quick Start

section).

2. Place the empty graduated container to the center of the platform.

3. Press to “zero-out” the weight of the container. The display will read zero.

4. Fill the container to the mark indicating the volume of the liquid in the container.

6. Adjust the specific gravity shown on the ALTERNATE NUMERIC DISPLAY by pressing

and/or holding the or until the displayed volume equals the known volume of liquid

in the container. The specific gravity can be changed faster by pressing .

5. Read the specific gravity of the liquid on the ALTERNATE NUMERIC DISPLAY.

NOTE: The accuracy of the Specific Gravity calculation will be dependent upon the volume

measured. Greater volumes will result in better accuracy.

USE CARE WHEN MEASURING LIQUIDS WITH THE DS-220. DO NOT SPILL LIQUIDS

ONTO THE PLATFORM OR CONTROL BOX, AS THIS CAN DAMAGE THE SCALE.

ALWAYS USE EXTREME CARE WHEN HANDLING FLAMMABLE MATERIALS. IN

ADDITION, OBSERVE PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING COROSSIVE OR TOXIC

MATERIALS, INCLUDING HOUSEHOLD OR INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS. USE PROTECTIVE

CLOTHING, EYEWARE, AND GLOVES AS REQUIRED.
