It depends on what the scale outputs. If the reading is correct, there is nothing wrong with that CPI.

Hi Yuriy, thanks for getting back and for reassuring me on the high CPI.
Any thoughts on the lack of minus readings? (that's probably the more fundamental concern for me). The scale itself (when moved) displays +ve through zero to -ve but the DRO shows +ve through zero and then +ve again.
For info - the scales run from a single 3v cell but the signal is 1.5v.
Thanks again for your thoughts on this.

Unfortunately I cannot get past the lack of minus readings - any suggestions or info would be very welcome. They are a decent looking stainless scale but if I've got to send them back then I've got limited time to do it and as we're shielding and in full "Corona lock down" it's going to be tricky!!
Yuriy - if there's a paid for version of the firmware that would fix the issue then please let me know, I'd happily look at that. Thanks.

I suspect your scales use the new Shahe electronics (the sign bit is in a different position). The firmware that ships on pre-made boards and the new kit should support it. I need to recompile and upload the file to the site; if the weekend doesn't go completely to crap I should be able to do it before Monday.
Regards
Yuriy

Hi Yuriy, Did you get a chance to recompile the firmware as you mentioned in your post above and might it resolve the issue I'm seeing?
Thanks again for your support.

Norman,
The firmware is available on the yuriystoys.com Downloads page.
