level as needed.
Figure 2-1. Leveling Bubble
2.4 Powering Up the DC-788
The DC-788 can be operated either from an AC power source or with a rechargeable battery pack (DC power).
The DC power allows the unit to be completely portable. Instructions for DC operation are contained in
Section 2.4.2.
2.4.1 AC Power Source
To power up the DC-788 using the AC power cord:
1. Connect the AC power cord under the scale base as shown in Figure 2-2.
Figure 2-2. AC Plug-in Location on Underside of DC-788
2. Plug the AC power cord into a grounded 115 VAC receptacle.
3. Press the ON/OFF key located on the front of the scale. The scale will run through a check of the LCD
8DC-788 Operation Manual
display’s segments. How thorough the segment check is depends on the setting of SPC 20, Bit 2. The
default is 1: Normal (For further instructions on how to set the scale’s specifications, see Section 3.1.2):
If SPC 20, Bit 2 is set to 0: Fast, the scale display’s 888’s for 1.5 seconds, then blanks for 1.5
seconds. It then displays 888’s again followed by a blank display for another 1.5 seconds before
going into the normal weighing mode.
If SPC 20, Bit 2 is set to 1: Normal, the scale’s display will test the LCD segments for each numeral
from 0 to 9, asterisks, decimal points and annunciators before going into the normal weighing mode.
4. Once the scale is on, the time interval before the scale will automatically power itself off, if there no key
is pressed and no weight is placed on the platter, is determined by SPC 00- Auto Power-Off Function.
The default is 0000: Disabled. (For further instructions on how to set the scale’s specifications, see
Section 3.1.1)
2.4.2 DC Battery Pack Replacement/Installation
An optional DC battery pack (PN 88933) for the DC-788 is available and can be purchased from RLWS to ship
with the scale or retrofit in the field. The rechargeable 6V 5.0 AH battery pack allows for up to 24 hours of scale
use without an AC power supply. It is located in the bottom of the scale base. Use the following procedure to
install or replace the battery pack.
1. Unplug the scale from power source.
2. Place scale its left side.
Do not turn the scale upside down. Always work with the scale on its side. Damage to the load cell can
occur if the scale is turned upside down.
3. Unscrew the two thumb screws holding the battery compartment door closed.
Figure 2-3. Thumb Screws for Battery Compartment
4. Unscrew the two screws holding on the battery holding bracket and remove the bracket.
Figure 2-4. Removing Battery Bracket.
5. Remove the battery from its compartment, then disconnect the black (-) and red (+) electrical leads from
the battery.

6. Attach the red lead to the positive (+) terminal of the new DC battery pack, and the black lead to the
negative (-) terminal. Place new DC battery pack in battery compartment.
7. Replace the battery holding bracket and fasten it with its two screws.
8. Replace the battery compartment door and fasten it with its two thumb screws.
9. Put the scale back upright on its feet.
10. Press the ON/OFF key located on the front of the scale. The scale will run through a check of the LCD
display’s segments. How thorough the segment check is depends on the setting of SPC 20, Bit 2. The
default is 1: Normal (For further instructions on how to set the scale’s specifications, see Section 3.1.2):
If SPC 20, Bit 2 is set to 0: Fast, the scale display’s 888’s for 1.5 seconds, then blanks for 1.5
seconds. It then displays 888’s again followed by a blank display for another 1.5 seconds before
going into the normal weighing mode.
If SPC 20, Bit 2 is set to 1: Normal, the scale’s display will test the LCD segments for each numeral
from 0 to 9, asterisks, decimal points and annunciators before going into the normal weighing mode.
2.4.3 Battery Charging
A fully charged battery allows for approximately 24 hours of continuous use. When the battery is low the battery
indicator light will light up. It will take approximately 8-10 hours to fully recharge a battery that has been
completely dissipated. To charge the battery, plug in the AC power cord.
2.4.4 Start-Up Screens
1. If SPC 20, Bit 3 - Version Display When Power On is set to 0: Allow, the scale will display the current
version of the firmware it is using as it powers up (For further instructions on how to set the
specifications, see Section 3.1.2).
2. After a test of the different elements of the display, the scale takes you to the stand-by screen in the
Weighing Mode. SPC 20, Bit 2 - Selection of Segment-Check Style controls whether the startup test of
the segments is Fast or Standard. At the stand-by screen the TARE, WEIGHT, UNIT WEIGHT and PCS
displays show zeroes.
From this stand-by screen all of the basic weighing, counting and inventory operations can be performed
3. If there is anything on the platform(s) and it exceeds the scale start range, the display will show the error
message OF indicating “weight overflow”.
Note: The Initial Start Range settings are controlled by SPC 20, Bit 1. The default setting is 0: ± 10% OF FULL SCALE.
If this error appears, remove the weight from the platform and the scale will continue its startup
sequence.
10 DC-788 Operation Manual
2.5 Setting the Date
Without a power supply, the DC-788 will reset the time and date. For units that do have battery power, the time
and date can be supported for up to 20 days in the OFF status without any AC power supply. After 20 days the
unit will reset itself.
The procedure below can also be used to adjust the time when moving from Standard to Daylight Savings Time
or when the scale is moved to a new facility in a different time zone.
NOTE: SPC 04, Bits 3 and 2 - ORDER OF MONTH, DATE AND YEAR allows you to set the format for the date that you prefer
the scale to display. The default is 00: Month/Date/Year. To change these specifications, see Section 3.1.2).
