Introduction

Pull both levers outward at the same time to raise or lower the display.

1.3. Power Cord and Switch

On the UC-CWx/UC-GT Evo CT, the power switch and power cord jack are located on the scale base

near the left front of the unit. Press the (-) on the rocker power switch briefly to turn the scale power

to ON. To turn the scale power off, always exit any editing screens, and then press the (o) on the

switch to turn power OFF.

Always turn the scale power to off before cleaning the scale.

Figure 1-6: Power Switch and Power Cord Connection, UC-CWx/UC-GT Evo CT

The UC requires 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 2.2A power. Wiring must include a proper ground. The

integrity of the power ground for equipment is important for both safety and dependable operation of

64092826 | 02 | 02/2016

METTLER TOLEDO UC Evo CT User's Guide

the electronic device. A poor ground can result in an unsafe condition should an electrical short

develop in the equipment.

A good ground connection minimizes extraneous electrical noise pulses. The electronic device

should not share power lines with noise-generating equipment. Examples include electrical motors,

compressors, heating elements, lights, and relays that may generate noise spikes and power

surges. To confirm ground integrity, use a commercial branch circuit analyzer or grounded outlet

tester. If adverse power conditions exist, a dedicated power circuit or power line conditioner might

be required.

1.4. Network Connections

UC Evo CT scales can connect to an Ethernet network using a cable or using a wireless radio. The

wired connection jack locations are shown below. If you are connected using a wireless radio, you

will see a cover protruding from the left side of the counter scale, the right side of the UC-GT Evo CT

(see below).
