Proper environment enhances the operation and longevity of the scale. The following factors could
have a negative influence on the scale's operation.
Maintain a temperature range of -10 °C to +40 °C.
Avoid areas where the temperature changes rapidly.
Select a firm, level, vibration-free surface on which to place the scale.
Avoid excessive drafts, such as from fans and open windows.
•
Vibration diminishes the scale's ability to measure accurately.
Excessive vibration from equipment such as conveyors can cause inaccurate and non-
repeatable readings.
•
Level the scale properly.
• Air currents can also diminish the scale's performance. Avoid placing the scale in front of
or directly under air vents.
•
Other than items being weighed, keep the scale free from objects rubbing or pressing
against the platter.
Place the scale on a stable, flat, and level surface. Adjust the leveling feet on the scale base until
the scale is level. The center pad on all leveling feet should each touch the surface, and the scale
should not rock or teeter.
Check to make sure the level bubble (located underneath the platter) is centered as shown below.
Level the scale after every location change.
Note: Before powering on the Ariva scale, always make sure there is nothing on the platter.
The Ariva-B scale is powered directly by the scanner, so it will power up when the scanner is
turned on.
The Ariva-H and Ariva-S scales are powered by plugging in the wall plug transformer.
After the scale is turned on, it runs through a short display test. All segments briefly light up, then a
cycle of information is displayed, including the firmware version (SW-IDs).
The scale is ready when the weight display appears.
