1) Press the CHANNEL key [F2] . The weight display will temporarily display dashes while it
queries the CellScale for the next channel information.
2) Keep pressing the CHANNEL key as desired until the channel of interest is displayed.
To go to the previous channel in the list, press the ENTER key followed by the CHANNEL key. (This assumes the default for E2 has not
been altered)

TO SELECT THE DISPLAY CHANNEL
As mentioned above, the 9750A will access any channels setup in the CellScale. It does this with the “CHAN-
NEL” function. Use the CHANNEL key to step from channel to channel as dictated by the Scan list stored in the
CellScale. If the CellScale has only one scale channel defi ned, only 1 display mode is necessary. This is usually
® ®
the case for MSI-6260CS, MSI-9300 Crane Scales, and other single load cell systems. However, even single load
cell systems can have math channels defi ned to add functionality.
For systems with multiple scales attached to any given CellScale the setup procedure is:
1) Program the CellScale Scan List as required (see the CellScale Manual). It is recommended that each channel
is assigned a channel name to aid in identifying the scale in various display modes.
2) Optional, but recommended so you can readily identify which scale you are monitoring and controlling
– Program the display mode to show the Channel Name, or Channel Number, or both with the Display Setup
procedures in Section 7.
To Change the Scale Channel (Single Channel Display)
This example assumes F2 is in its default mode CHANNEL.
1) Using the numeric keys, input the number (1-32) corresponding to the desired channel in the
scan list.
This example finds the fourth entry in the scan list. If a requested channel does not exist in the scan list, this procedure is ignored by the
CellScale.
2) Press the CHANNEL key [F2] . The weight display will temporarily display dashes while it
queries the CellScale for the desired channel information.

To Change the Scale Channel Using Scan List Position (Single Channel Display)
Uses the CellScale’s Scan List Index Number to determine which channel to display.
To Change Scale Channel Using the Channel Number (Single Channel Display)
Uses the CellScale’s Channel Number to determine which channel to display.
1) Using the numeric keys, input the number corresponding to the desired channel
number. Use the decimal point as the channel-subchannel separator.
This example finds channel 6-1, a math channel. If a requested channel does not exist in the scan list, this procedure

MULTI-CHANNEL SYSTEMS
In CellScale systems with multiple channels, you can choose to see more than one channel at a time (See Display
Setup in Section 7). In order to zero, tare, or totalize with channels in a multiple channel display, you must fi rst
select the channel to operate on. This is referred to as the “Active” channel, because this is the only channel that
any scale function can be performed on.
To Select the Active Channel (multi-channel display)
1) Highlight the channel you wish to make Active by pressing the UP ( ^ ) or DOWN ( v ) cursor keys.
2) Once highlighted you can Zero the channel, set and clear Tare, and switch between Net and Gross with the
NET/GROSS key, just press the appropriate key. For Total, View Total, Statistics and other ID functions,
you must switch the display to the single channel display by pressing DISPLAY .
To Change a Channel in the Multi-Channel Display
1) Highlight the channel you wish to change by pressing the UP ( ^ ) or DOWN ( v ) cursor keys.
2) Once highlighted enter the scan list position (1-32) or the channel number (1-1 to 6-32 using the decimal
point for the sub channel entry). Then press CHANNEL .
The new channel replaces the previous channel. If the channel is already on the display in another location, both will display the same information.
