The BE 9 range of equipment are designed to be flexible and easy to use. They bring the advantage of modern digital setting up to quality low cost instruments.

BE9 VERSIONS
There are 3 versions of the BE 9:-

BE 9.1 INDICATOR
All models have the features of the BE 9.1 which are as shown above.

BE 9.3 AUTOMATIC BATCH CONTROLLER
Automatic batching for up to three ingredients into a weigh hopper.
Automatic emptying of the weigh hopper (discharge door closes and an adjustable delay after an adjustable empty point has been reached).
Automatic in-flight control can set to be fixed, averaging, or use the last.
Start weigh and start discharge inputs are provided.
Abort input provided.
Outputs for the three ingredients and for the discharge door.

The BE9 must be in calibration mode. If it is not in calibration mode power down, then power back up with the SELECT key held down until the sign-on number is removed from the display.

First make sure that the FILTER and DEJIT values are in range. These values may be adjusted to get the best results. Good initial settings are:

FILTER set to 2 (TWO)

DEJIT set to 20 (TWENTY)

Now, with the weigher empty, select OFFSET and press the RIGHT ARROW key to display the existing zero offset count. It would now be possible to enter a new value from the keyboard, but in this case we wish to enter the value being received from the load cells. To do this press the TARE key and observe that while the key is held down the display shows a reading from the cells. Release the TARE key and the reading will be frozen on the display. Press the SELECT key to record this value as the new zero count, and move to the SPAN setting.

Press the RIGHT ARROW key to display the existing span count. Now apply the calibration weight. For the best accuracy the weight should be as large a fraction as possible of the typical load to be weighed. To learn the SPAN COUNTS press the TARE key. While the TARE key is pressed the display will show the SPAN count, which is the difference between the OFFSET count and the calibration-weight count from the load-cells. When the TARE key is released this value will be frozen on the display. Now press the SELECT key to store the value and move to the LOAD setting.

Press the RIGHT ARROW key to display the existing setting for the calibration weight. If a different calibration weight has been used this time, enter the new value using the arrow keys as described earlier.

The BE9 is now calibrated. It is a good idea to make a note of the values in OFFSET, SPAN and LOAD, so that they can be re-entered if are inadvertently changed.
