CALIBRATING
Required equipment: Launchpad, 10g weight, 1g weight, notebook/pen to take notes.
Allow machine to acclimate to ambient
temperature for a minimum of 24 hours.
Maintaining a consistent, controlled
temperature is crucial for the success
of the machine.
The loading cells are extremely sensitive.
Temperature fluctuations can dramatically
affect the efficacy of the machine.

Level machine before use.
a) Locate the bubble level on top of the machine, behind the Load Cell
Pad.
b) Adjust the feet of the machine to ensure level prior to use.
Step 3:
Acclimate LaunchPad to your environment for at least 48-72 hours. Power
on and leave on for the entire time. This will allow for more accurate
weights. Note: This is very important.
Step 4:
Set paper weight
a) Touch number
b) Enter new weight
c) Select “enter”
Step 5:
Set your Target Weight.
Step 6:
Set your Varience.
Step 7:
Tare.

START-UP OPERATION
Required equipment: Any style RocketBox with 72-count bottom tray(s), Notebook/spreadsheet to record results.
It's recommended to keep the machine on at all times, with the
exception of the monitor. The touch screen will shut down and
display a screen saver after 10 minutes.
If machine is powered off, please allow 30 minutes for the
machine to warm-up.

Step 1:
Turn the machine on using the on/off switch on the side of the machine.
a) On the right side of the machine, towards the back by the large screen.
Step 2:
Enter target weight
a) Touch number entered
b) Enter new weight
c) Select “enter”
Step 3:
Select desired weight variance
a) Custom
i) Push “Custom” if you want something other
than 5% or 10%
ii) Enter desired percentage
iii) Select “enter”
Step 4:
Weigh paper cones with a handheld digital scale
Step 5:
Set paper weight
a) Touch number
b) Enter new weight
c) Select “enter”
Step 6:
Tare
Step 7:
Load tray of joints onto scale tray, let weights settle.
a) Carefully position the RocketBox tray on top of the Load Cell Pad using
the guide rods.
Step 8:
Set aside any joints that don’t make weight
a) Set aside in bottom tray
b) Once you fill up the tray, put it back in the Rocket Box and run again
i) Make sure not to mix strains
Step 9:
Make notes of how run came out.
a) How many didn’t make weight?
b) Were the ones that were off mostly over or
underweight?
i) Up arrow=underweight, means you need
to add more material to reach
target weight.
ii) Down arrow=overweight, means you
need to remove material to reach
target weight.
Step 10:
Communicate with Rocket Box operator if they need to fix anything on their
runs.

WEIGHING TRAYS
Required equipment: Any style RocketBox with 72-count bottom tray(s), Notebook/spreadsheet to record results.
It's recommended to keep the machine on at all times, with the
exception of the monitor. The touch screen will shut down and
display a screen saver after 10 minutes.
If machine is powered off, please allow 30 minutes for the
machine to warm-up.
LaunchPad Weighing Trays Video
To ensure proper maintenance of your machine, use compressed air 1-2x per day to blow away
any loose material. There is a grate located on the bottom of the machine to prevent build up.
In the rare instance there is any sticky material on any of the Load Cells, you may power down
the machine, remove the Load Cell guard, and GENTLY wipe with isopropyl alcohol using a spray
bottle and either microfiber cloths or paper towels. Dry completely before use.
No more than 10g of weight should be added to the Load Cells in a single occurrence.
Purposefully adding excessive weight can be detected and may void your warranty.
To begin data logging, access the PLC in the back of the machine. Insert a MicroSD card into the
slot (see image). Once the MicroSD card is inserted, a button will pop-up on the screen with a
prompt to save current weights. It's recommended to backup data once a week for record-
keeping.

TROUBLESHOOTING
My weights are off...
Are more arrows pointing up than down?
Are more arrows pointing down than up?
Arrows are fairly evenly split, up and down
Make sure machine is calibrated (should be done at least once a week), see page 5.
Reduce tolerance to 1%
a) More arrows up means you need to put more weight in your cones
b) Raise top tray
c) Lower bolts to raise the tray
a) More arrows down means you need to put less weight in your cones
b) Lower top tray
c) Raise bolts to lower the tray
a) Pour material faster
i) If material takes 20 seconds longer to get into one cone that another, that cone won’t
pack as well, and will be underweight.
b) Lower top tray
i) Joints getting the full run time are overweight
ii) Raise bolts to lower the tray
c) Slight increase to run time (10-15 sec)
i) Not much, just a little to make sure that if some cones still take a little longer to get
material in them, they’ll still get a good pack.
I calibrated all of my scales, but I still have one or more
that isn’t reading at 1.0 with my 1g weight on it...
Finish calibrating everything, then go back and re-do the ones that didn’t hit 1.0. Since they’re all done by
hand, it can be easy to skip over one, or select the wrong scale from the drop down menu.
