8.6 MULTI RANGE FUNCTIONING (for legal for trade approved instruments)
The multi range functioning allows to subdivide the scale capacity in two or three ranges, each which is up to 3000
divisions, improving in this way the first range division in the dual range and the first two ranges in the triple range.
For example, with a 30 kg cell platform it is possible to approve the weighing system with:
-
A single range: 6 kg capacity and 2 g division (3000 div.).
-
Dual range: 6 / 3 kg capacity and 2/1 g division (3000 + 3000 div.).
-
Triple range: 15 / 6 / 3 kg capacity and 5/2/1 g division (3000 + 3000 + 3000 div.).
NOTES:
- For the approval of the weighing system in dual and triple range the cell must have better technical features in comparison
to the cell used for the approval in a single range.
The multirange functioning is shown by the turning on of the relative symbol on the display which identifies the range in
which one is operating; by passing to the second range, the second range division is enabled; by passing to the third range,
the third range division is enabled. At this point the first range division is restored
only by passing by the gross zero of
the scale.
- The selection of the range number with multirange functioning is made during the scale’s calibration
(TECH.MAN.REF.)
.
8.7 CONVERSION OF THE UNIT OF MEASURE
It is possible to execute the weight conversion from the unit of measure of the scale to pounds and vice versa, by pressing
the MODE/C key.
To enable or disable this function, follow the procedure below:
-
Turn on the scale, press the TARE key while the firmware version is displayed (the display shows the “F.ModE” step).
-
Press MR to enter the step.
-
Press ZERO many times (to scroll forwards through the parameters) or TARE (to scroll backwards) until one finds the
“un.ConV” step.
-
Press MR to enter the parameter.
-
With the ZERO or TARE keys select the possible options: “diSAbL” (disables the unit conversion), “EnAbLE” (enables
the unit conversion).
-
Confirm with MR.
-
Press the MODE/C key many times until the message “SAVE?” is shown on the display.
-
Press MR to confirm the changes made or another key to not save.
NOTES:
-
The present total will be cleared when the conversion takes place.
-
The conversion causes the state of instability of the weight.
-
The conversion can take place for any unit of measure set during the calibration.
-
With approved instrument the weight in pounds is displayed for 5 seconds, after which the display returns to the scale
unit of measure.
8.8 DISPLAY OF METRIC DATA (inFO)
The scale is fitted with a function named “INFO”, thanks to which it is possible to view the configuration metric data:
-
Keep the MODE/C key pressed until the display shows “inFo”, and release.
-
The capacity value of the first range will appear.
-
Press the ZERO key to scroll the following data, in this order:
Capacity 1° range
Minimum weigh 1° range
Division 1° range
Capacity 2° range
Minimum weigh 2° range
Division 2° range
Capacity 3° range
Minimum weigh 3° range
Division 3° range
Capacity 1° range
………
-
Press the TARE key to scroll backwards the metric data.
-
Press the MODE/C key to return to weighing.
NOTES:
-
The minimum weigh corresponds to 20 net weight divisions.
-
The data of the second and third range appear only if actually configured.
