IS330/IS350 Scales Support
Quadient IS330 / IS350 · Scales
How to zero, re-zero, tare and troubleshoot the weighing platform on the Quadient IS330 / IS350, and how to enter a weight manually.
Why is my IS330 / IS350 not weighing correctly?
An incorrect weight, or a – – g display, is almost always caused by something interfering with the platform rather than a fault. Check the following:
- Vibration or air drafts in the weighing area.
- Something touching or resting on the weighing platform.
- The weighing platform zero is not correct.
To correct it, place the machine on a solid, steady surface away from any door or fan, clear the platform and re-zero it. Always make sure the platform is clear when you switch the system on.
How do I zero or re-zero the weighing platform on the IS330 / IS350?
Zeroing resets the displayed weight; a re-zero in Supervisor mode physically recalibrates the platform.
Zero (user):
- Press Menu.
- Select Job Settings and press OK.
- Select Zero Weigh Platform and press OK.
- Remove all items from the platform.
- Press OK to zero the platform.
Re-zero (supervisor):
- Log in as supervisor and press Menu.
- Select System Settings and press OK.
- Select Weighing Functions and press OK.
- Select Zero Weigh Platform and press OK.
- Remove all items from the platform and press OK.
How do I tare the weighing platform on the IS330 / IS350?
Taring sets the weight to zero with a container in place, so only added contents are weighed.
- Press Menu.
- Select Job Settings and press OK.
- Select Tare Weigh Platform and press OK.
- Place the container on the platform.
- Press OK to set the weight to zero.
Note: A supervisor can tare from System Settings → Weighing Functions → Weigh Platform Tare.
How do I enter a weight manually on the IS330 / IS350?
Enter a weight by hand when a mail piece is heavier than the platform can weigh – the postage then prints onto a label.
- Select the postal class.
- Press Menu, select Job Settings and press OK.
- Select Weighing Type and press OK.
- Select Manual Weight Entry and press OK.
- Enter the weight in grams and press OK – the home screen shows the manual weight icon and the weight entered.
How do I change the default weighing settings on the IS330 / IS350?
From Default User Settings (Supervisor) you can set the default weighing type and turn automatic weight detection on or off so the platform is selected as soon as a mail piece is placed on it.
- Default weighing type: Default User Settings → Base Settings → Default Weighing Type.
- Auto weight detection: Default User Settings → Base Settings → Auto Weight Detection – select to activate or deactivate.
