OHaus Defender 5000 Setup Instructions

Connect the SerialIO Adapter to the RS232 port on the back of the Scale Indicator unit.

Power on the adapter with the white button on the device. The device can run while plugged into its charger. Connect the adapter to the included charging cable to make sure the battery doesn’t run out during operation (a full charge lasts ~8 hours).

Power on the scale and enter the main menu by holding the User/Menu button

Select 7. Communication / RS232 / Configuration and make sure your Baud Rate is set to 9600

Select 7. Communication / RS232 / Setup and make sure assignment mode is "Continuous." Ensure that the scale is in Weighing Mode, as seen by the icon on the top-left of the menu screen when you've exited the setup mode. 

Open the Canix Mobile Application and select Connect To Scale in the left-hand menu on the home screen (make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone). Select the adapter in the list (should be at the top, the same ID that’s printed on the side of the adapter).

You should now be able to use Auto-Harvest and read scale weights inside the Canix application.
