Acculab VI Series, Instruction Manual

ERROR CODES

Following is a description of typical error codes that may appear on VI/VIR-Series balances. 

1)

L

This indicates that the balance is under loaded.  Check to see if  the weighing 

pan is properly installed and seated on the top of the unit.

2)

H

This indicates that there may be an excessive weight applied to the weighing pan.  It is critical 
not to exceed the maximum load capacity by more than 150% or damage to the balance may 
occur.

3)

E-01

Capacity of LCD digit readout has been exceeded in CT and DWT modes.

4)

E-02

Usually detected when the calibration operation is being attempted.  It is usually the result of 
the balance being exposed to vibrations, air drafts, or unstable environments.  The balance 
must be placed in a stable environment before calibration occurs.  Before pushing the 
CAL/MODE button as part of the calibration process, the LCD should display a stable ZERO 
with the mode arrow stable on the gram (g) mode.

5)

E-10

This will be displayed only if there is a value stored in memory and the tare button is pressed.  
Memory must be cleared or the unit turned off in order to restore the normal tare function.

6)

E-30

This is an indication that an electronic malfunction has occurred.  The unit must be returned to 
the factory for evaluation.

7)

E-54

This fault will appear on the display when the unit is powered on.  This occurs when the

electronics are no longer within the factory set parameters.  The most common cause is from 

objects being dropped onto the weighing pan or from the balance itself being dropped.  The 
balance must be returned to Acculab or an authorized service center for electronic evaluation 
and repair.

8)

▲

(in the upper left corner of display)  Following are the most probable causes of this error code.  
The balance must be returned to Acculab or an authorized service center for electronic 
evaluation and repair.

1.  There is something causing the sensor to function out of specification.
2.  Rough, improper handling of the balance.
3.  Liquids and other materials spilled into the balance.

NOTE

:  Do not attempt to access internal components or make any unauthorized repairs since this will void the

warranty.
