Notes
o Use a standard channel location convention for your Tach and Response channels.
Typically: Tach is channel 1 and Response channels are 2 and above.
o If you aren’t getting a Tach Trigger, verify the Tach channel’s FSV, Trigger Level Percentage, and
Direction.
o If an error should occur, which results in eZ-Balance not booting up, delete the EZBal.ini file
[located in the executable’s directory]. The .ini file identifies the last Job opened. You can delete
this file without affecting your data. After deleting the file you should be able to open the last
balancing job.
1. Start eZ-Balance
To run eZ-Balance, double-click the eZ-Balance icon or use your Windows desktop Start button to navigate
to the program file [or to wherever you installed the program].
The first time you run eZ-Balance, the Registration Form will open (following figure). You must complete
the registration form in order for eZ-Balance to operate.
The license number accompanies the CD-ROM, or can be provided via e-mail if you downloaded
eZ-Balance from the Web Site. You will not have to re-enter this information again, unless you upgrade to
a newer version, or if you reinstall eZ-Balance.
Should you need to access the form, for example if you received a license for an upgrade, it can be
accessed through the Help pull-down menu. From the available selections, pick “About eZ-Balance...;”
then click the button. A screen similar to the following will appear.
