PLEASE READ COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Thank you for purchasing The MX-50. With normal
care and proper treatment it will provide years
of reliable service. Please read all operating
instructions carefully.
.KEEP THE FOLLOWING POINTS IN MIND:
* Avoid any exposure to extreme heat or cold,
your scale works
best when operated at normal room temperature.
Always allow the scale to acclimate to normal
room temperature for at least one hour before
use.
* Allow sufficient warm up time. Usually 30-90
seconds before calibration to give the internal
components a chance to stabilize.
* The cleaner the environment the better. Dust,
dirt, moisture, vibration, air currents and proximity
to other electronic equipment can all cause an
adverse effect on the reliability and accuracy
of your scale.
* Handle with care. Gently apply all items to
be weighed onto tray top. Although this scale
is designed to be quite durable, try to avoid
rough treatment as this may permanently damage
the internal sensor.
* Avoid shaking, dropping or otherwise shocking
the scale. This is a precision instrument and
MUST BE HANDLED WITH EXTREME CARE.
* Only operate the scale on a stable, vibration
free surface.
* DO NOT OVERLOAD THE SCALE. Do not place anything
that weighs more then 50 grams on the scale or
you may permanently damage the scale and void
your warranty.
KEYBOARD FUNCTIONS:
ON/TARE : Power on switch
TARE : Press the key to tare the container weight.
UNITS : To select weighing units g/ozt/dwt
OFF : Power off switch
AUTO CALIBRATION
Auto Calibration:
1. Turn the scale OFF. Press and hold the ON/TARE
key, then while holding down the
ON/TARE key, press the UNITS key 3 times, then
release the ON/TARE key.
2. The scale will now be in calibration mode.
The display will first show a random
figure, then it will show “C 50”.
3. Place the 50 gram weight on the tray. The scale
will change to 50.00. The Calibration
is complete. Remove the weight from the tray.
ADVANCED PROGRAMMING MODE (for advanced users
only)
1. Press and hold the “ON/TARE” key
and don’t release it, then press the “UNITS”
key four times. Now release the “ON/TARE”
key. The scale will enter the following modes:
(A)OFF_X(1-9) (B)SLEP 0/1 (C)Unit 1 (D) Unit 2
Press “ON/TARE” key to select (A) to
(D) sequentially.
(A) OFF_X(1-9): Select time auto off. Use “UNITS”
key to choose “OFF_1” (shortest auto-off
time) through ”OFF_9” (longest auto-off
time).
(B) SLEP 0/1: Please use “UNITS” key
to choose auto off (1) or no auto off (0). “OFF_X”
is only effective in “SLEP 1” mode.
(C) Unit 1: To select the scale reading (weighing)
units of (1) g/ozt/dwt, (2) g/oz, (3) g/Taiwanese
kg, (4) g only. Ex. If the current setting of
the scale is the factory default “g/ozt/dwt”
unit, you could press the “UNITS” key
once to set the scale to “g/oz” (the
scale would now read in grams or ounces instead
of grams, troy ounces, pennyweight).
(D) Unit 2: To select the default weighing mode.
You can use “UNITS” key to choose the
unit “g”, “ozt”, “dwt”,
“oz” or “Taiwanese kg”.
(E) All settings are finished, turn off the scale.
(turn the scale off).

Thank you for purchasing the MX120/200. With normal
care and proper treatment it will provide years
of reliable service. Please read all operating instructions
carefully.
.KEEP THE FOLLOWING POINTS IN MIND:
If the display ever becomes locked on Out2, please
recalibrate the scale as outlined below.
!!Always use a gentle touch on the buttons - don't
press hard!!
* Avoid lengthy exposure to extreme heat or cold,
your scale works best when operated at normal
room temperature. Always allow the unit to acclimate
to a normal room temperature for at least one
hour before use.
* Allow sufficient warm up time. Turn the scale
On and wait 30 seconds to give the internal components
a chance to stabilize before weighing.
* The cleaner the environment the better. Dust,
dirt, moisture, vibration, air currents and proximity
to other electronic equipment can all cause an
adverse effect on the reliability and accuracy
of your scale.
* Handle with care. Gently apply all items to
be weighed onto tray top. Although this scale
is designed to be quite durable, try to avoid
rough treatment as this may permanently damage
the internal sensor and void your warranty.
* Avoid shaking, dropping or otherwise shocking
the scale. This is a precision instrument and
MUST BE HANDLED WITH EXTREME CARE.
* Only operate the scale on a stable, vibration
free surface. IMPORTANT: Do not operate near cell
phones, radios, computers, or any other electronic
device.
.** These electronic scales are precision instruments.
Do not operate near an in-use cell phone, cordless
phone, radio, computer or other electronic device.
These devices emit RF and can cause unstable scale
readings. If your scale ever performs poorly,
try moving the scale to a different room or location.
This is a very precise scale - the display may
seem to wander or jump when weighing. This is
due to air currents or vibrations. Stable weighing
is achieved when the display remains fixed for
3 seconds.
* Overload
When an applied load exceeds the capacity. “----”
will appear on the display. Remove excessive load
immediately. The unit may return to normal operation.
!Remember: You can permanently damage the scale
by overloading it!
CALIBRATION_____________________________________________
NOTE: There are 2 MX120/200 models - 1.0 and 2.0.
Please use the instructions that are correct for
your model (your box would say 2.0 if it was a
2.0)
Important: Please turn the scale ON and allow
it to warm up for 30 seconds before calibration.
Repeat calibration at regular intervals if the
scale is subject to weather or altitude changes.
Incorrect calibration can occur if you do not
follow the steps exactly. If your scale does not
perform accurately, please try replacing your
batteries before you calibrate.
Calibration Procedure for MX120 & MX200 Version
1.0 (2001 Models)
1) Place the scale on a Flat, very stable surface.
Turn the scale on and allow it to stabilize for
30 seconds.
2) Press and hold the “UNITS” key for
5 seconds until 100.0 starts flashing on the display.
3) Press the TARE key, the display will change
to ALO.
3) Gently place the 100 gram weight on the scale,
wait 3 seconds, The display should change to ALF.
(If ALE appears turn the scale off and start calibration
again).
4) Press the TARE key. The scale will show 100.0,
calibration is complete. Gently remove the weight.
Sometimes the scale may show a leftover value
such as 0.1g, If you wish you may re-zero the
unit by pressing the tare key.
Calibration Procedure for MX120 & MX200 Version
2.0 (2002 Models)
1) Turn the scale OFF and Place the it on a Flat,
very stable surface
(Be certain the scale is OFF)
2) Press and hold the "TARE" key for
5 seconds until a random large
number appears on the display - then release the
key.
3) Press the TARE key again, the display will
show 2Ero and then
100.0
3) Gently place a 100 gram weight on the scale
and wait 3 seconds.
4) Press the TARE key. The display will show CAL
and then PASS,
calibration is complete. Gently remove the weight
and turn the scale
Off.
NOTE: if after calibration your scale does not
read accurately, this indicates
calibration error and the calibration process
should be repeated.
Please calibrate on a very stable flat surface
INACCURACY / ERROR___________________________________
The primary reasons for inaccuracy or malfunction
are low batteries, incorrect calibration, overload
or operating on an unstable surface. Please keep
this in mind and maintain and operate your scale
properly. The scale is a precise instrument and
must be handled with the utmost care and caution.
FEATURE_______________________________________________
* Power Up Segment Test
